D.

While women in the UAE have obtained prominent posts and greater participation recently, gender equality is not strongly emphasized and women do not occupy many government positions relative to men. The other statements reflect constitutional provisions (including Sharia as a main source of law and guarantees of liberty/equality and certain freedoms, though some are limited in practice).
