Punished life - Introduction to my speech

Hi everyone, can you help me I'm trying to fix my introduction to my speech and I think I'm lost I'm still working on the body of speech. It's persuassive speech.

Thank you so much in advance.

Imagine having a life where you get punished for leaving the house without a male companion, for being alone with an unrelated man, or for undergoing certain medical procedures without permission from male guardians. [...]

Imagine having a life where you get punished for leaving the house without a male companion, for being alone with an unrelated man, or for undergoing certain medical procedures without permission from male guardians. Imagine women, who suffer heart attacks, (who) are delaying life-saving treatment because they need a man's permission to travel to hospital. Moreover, imagine if you can't(not being able to travel alone) unless you're traveling with your male guardian. The guardian may be her father, her husband, her uncle, her brother, or even her own son. This scenario presents the daily life of women in Saudi Arabia. ( Have this as an opening and add more details)

In a nation where that deeply values of family and tradition(please add a touching end to this sentence here) .>Start a new sentence>but Unfortunately in Saudi Arabia, there is a guardianship system (that) minimize(s) women's values and treat women as minors. Saudi Arabia's male guardianship of women and policies of sex segregation stop women from enjoying their basic rights.

According to an article published in December.22.2014 by unknown Politics in Quatare.ed

"`.The women of all ages are not permitted to study, travel, work, receive medical treatment, or obtain personal identification without the permission of their male guardians-. It is a system that relegates half of the population as being dependent on their male guardians"

I'm going to talk (discuss) about how discrimination on the basis of gender in Saudi Arabia affects women.

Hi! You have a great start here! You can continue with the remaining paragraphs giving examples and quotes like the one above arguing your point. Use your closing to wrap up what you are trying to say as a whole.Good luck you will do great!

Thank you your help and encouragement I appreciate that.
