There is no comparison between females rights in the United States and in Saudi Arabia. Even though I have heard major progress with gay and woman rights in Saudi Arabia, mostly just "law breakers" are ignored, I wouldn't say the flaws in the United States are even close to these countries.

I would like to see protests in the United States against the support of Saudi Arabia because without it, there could very well be a change with these types of issues. I am not certain about this and don't have any proof, but I believe I heard that this brutal regime is unpopular and if it was taken over, there would be more woman and gay rights but unfortunately the United States is keeping them in power in fear of losing influence in this oil-rich country.
