I assume you wanted me to explain about the judging from outside?

It's not only about this male work permit thing, but a bigger issue. Just recently I have heard many foreign people criticise about some things in Egypt. Like veiling and other women issues etc. The thing is that these people don't really understand the background. The life in Egypt (and some other Arab countries) is different, the way of thinking is different. There are many big problems in Egypt, but I honestly don't know how those should be fixed. Western models don't work here. Same way as Western ways didn't really suit for Indian people in US.
