Best Answer

Women are not valued little in Libya. To the contrary, Libyan women have more freedom than women from many other North African and Middle Eastern countries.

For example, Tuareg Berber women have more control and freedom than Tuareg men in Libya, Algeria, Niger and Mali. This is so because the Berbers are a matriarchal society since times immemorial, and they still are to this day.

Tuareg women go about with their faces uncovered, while Tuareg men cover their faces completely except for the eyes which they need in order to see.

Foreign women can swim in bikini swim suits (away from family beaches) in Libya, and Gaddafi (Qaddafi) has granted Libyan women more freedom than any other president had done before. Libyan women can now take up posts just as men, drive, travel, join the army, and Gaddafi bodyguards are mostly Libyan women.
