Thanks you'll in sharing your perspective on this.
See, the point that I am trying to make, is that although women in Qatar are able to drive(if their family allow it), able to study abroad(if their family allow it),etc.. Society don't judge men as much as it judges women.
Yes, I am thankful for what we have, but I strive for more, for a better society, for equal opportunities, for equal rights and without society harsh judgments and blames.
Women have to start making their own decisions, without any pressure from anyone, many women were successful convincing their families about their decisions, others are unfortunate.
Additionally, I am not talking about biological differences, nor I am claiming that women should do the "exact" same jobs men does, this is not my point.
Also, what I have stated are just few examples about how roles defined, how society and some individuals looks at women. Yes, we are rich country, yes we have a small Qatari population (300,000+-), therefore I don't think positive change is impossible.
Few years ago, women couldn't even think about studying certain majors in college, because it's considered to be male-only majors, now that has changed, it took few years but it changed eventually. Change can come soon, it might be not easy, but we always need to find a way to change for better.
