I think a fundamental sign of civilization is effective prosecution of rape.
In Islamic countries it is well near impossible, as it takes at least two female witnesses to overcome the witness of one male. This is why women in those h***holes are so hidden away, behind burkas and walls, as if a man catches a woman alone he can basically rape her with impunity.
In African tribal society too, as is typical in traditional (read “primitive”) cultures, women were either property of a man (a father, husband, or brother)...or free to be raped at will.
I think only in the modern Western/Judeo-Christian world did we develop effective laws against rape (going back into the Old Testament, actually)—making the world safe for everyone. This requires a measure of equal rights for women though, that traditional...and Islamic...societies have never known.
In Yemen you apparently need 4 male witnesses who will attest that it was rape or the girl goes to jail for sex outside of marriage.
Unfortunately, the OT laws involving rape make it quite clear it was primarily viewed as a property crime against the woman's owner, reducing her financial value, for which he was compensated.
Slightly better than the way women are treated in the Koran, but not a great deal.
