It is important to note that this ban on Saudi Women is not imposed by the International Olympic Committee (the organization the runs the Olympics) but is self-imposed by Saudi Arabia. Women in Saudi Arabia are treated unequally when compared to their male counterparts, as are women in most Islamic nations. However, two Saudi Arabian women did actually compete in the 2012 London Olympics this year: Sarah Attar in the 800 meter race and Wojdan Shaherkani in women's judo. When the women entered in the opening ceremonies, they were required to enter behind the men.
In Saudi Arabia, there is no position called "Queen". The wives of the king (yes wives) are officially named princess.
