For the first time ever
women in Saudi Arabia
are allowed both to vote
and to run
in elections
and Uber has teamed up
with the Al-Nahda Philanthropic Society for Women
to offer them free rides
to the polls
since they are still
barred from driving.
Maybe because
unlike with the supposedly un-Christian
red Starbucks cups
he hasn't yet found
some random guy on YouTube
ranting about it
Donald Trump hasn't proposed
a registry or a ban on women
and they'll probably
get to keep voting
as long as they're attractive.
