Not in Saudi Arabia: but in your beloved Israel

"Students at the Haredi College of Jerusalem were surprised recently to see a tall screen separating between men and women at the institution's public cafeteria, in addition to the gender segregation in classrooms.   The students expressed their wonder over the complete separation, as the college is headed by Rabbanit Adina Bar-Shalom, the daughter of Shas spiritual leader Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, who is considered a relatively feminist person in the ultra-Orthodox sector."
