Women Abused
Wow!  This is rather incredulous.  "Most women in Riyadh abused - study."  Short article, though, for such serious subject matter.  "According to a survey of women in Riyadh, 95 percent have been subjected for a form of physical or emotional abuse from within their family."  How were the 80 women who were interviewed about their family life chosen?  Seems like a relatively small handful of women, considering the population...  Were the 80 women that were interviewed at a women's shelter or something?  95% of 80 women.  Something is not right about this study.  Not saying that the women were not abused - they probably were - but wouldn't a much larger number of women be needed to truly give an accurate picture of abuse in this - or any - society?
