During the recent Saudi municipal "elections", authorities said that women would not be able to vote because of "technical reasons". Because I'm a skeptic at heart, I decided to dig a little deeper into the real reason women could not cast their ballots. And in tribute to Dave Letterman's "top 10" routine, I will reveal my amazing discoveries:

Top 10 Reasons why Saudi women can't vote

10. They might menstruate over some important paperwork.

9. They can't think straight, and they'd forget what to do.

8. They might tempt men with their seductive handling of ballots.

7. Who's going to be home to cook dinner?

6. They can't drive there, so why bother?

5. It will lead to rampant promiscuity and tongue-piercings.

4. Studies show that most women get raped while voting.

3. It's part of a corrupt Zionist plot to turn Saudi women into concubines for Israeli and American soldiers.

2. If women participate in the country's political system, they will choose a more egalitarian system and prove that they can make important contributions to society.

1. Ok, fine, we're sexist.

Did I miss something in my extensive research? Add your own reasons!
