I never have seen women drive a car in Egypt......
I saw very few women around or have a job in Egypt.
Sorry, It's a really sad lifestyle.


In Egypt - especially Cairo - there are very few women, the ones that do exist here are not allowed out of their homes unless for emergency purposes such as going to the shop for sugar,and this is only allowed if it is very dark and they dress to look like a man so that they won't be noticed. Women are not allowed to drive here and if they get caught driving they will be expelled from the country!

UMTS/LTE Does the above confirm your view of Egypt - did you actually visit Egypt or did you just think you saw a couple of women from your window as your plane passed over the country - if you were in Egypt I can only guess that you were living in the desert at the time lol


Where  do you receive your information because none of its true? There are  Egyptian women who are career women  and some whom  are more traditional who choose to  stay at home . Women go out all the time  not only for emergency's they go out and socialize with friends  Also women do drive here  Getting kicked out of a country for driving that is  rubbish talk .
