Women are not allowed to go to school in those countries, and are not allowed to receive an education.

Sharia law, what could go wrong with these sets of rules, right? /s

This is the type of system where the design fails and effects of it are purely self inflicted by that society. It's pretty obvious that a population without education is easier to control, and that's the sole reason women still have no rights in those countries. It's just stupid when you need them to take care of your population's health then, huh?
