Well their GDP combined (SA + UAE) is still less than that of Australia so neither "richer" nor "much richer"

Only those who are born through the Emerati lineage/blood lines (maybe 12% of population) get those privileges you list. They also get payments merely for being native "Emerati" so they're born virtually born rich (I guess $100k free money, I don't know the exact figure). You don't get those privileges if you're a foreigner, in fact migrants get treated like crap and deported after serving on the workforce.... so there's your BS right there!

.In Australia, you get most of those benefits and more if you look at the raft of welfare benefits that cater to the gamut of society especially the underprivileged.

And as far as the misogyny point, they've only improve lately with women getting more rights like being able to drive in the last few years. But women have it better here.

GDP is bullshit if the enterprises in your country are owned by foreigners like Australia! Most of the GDP generated here goes to US, UK and Japan! In Saudi Aribia they own their own oil wells.
