Another tiny tiny step for a country that is absolutely abysmal when it comes to human rights. Kudos Saudi Arabia (????).

Clearly socioeconomic factors and therefore educational opportunities have some effect on cognitive development—improving social conditions, can play into increased gender equality

She's been reduced from star to second string by Rauch and Bialik.

If I had to work on that pos show for this many years, I'd be demanding a cool million each episode too.
