Heh, without wanting to drag this topic out too much, I would say that defining what is - and what isn't - lewd in Dubai is quite tricky! The other day I saw this woman in the Burjuman. Quite young, obviously quite loaded too, loads of designer bags in her hands. Anyway, she must have been going for...

I actually attended last year's remembrance service in Dubai with my Nan! It was held at the anglican church, the one near St. Mary's... It really was quite strange, not in a bad way at all, but just, well...strange. For one of the first times ever, we sat down and talked about some of her experienc...

Just got back from there. It was a business trip, only spent three a half days there. But even that was enough to make you realize what an unbelievable, fascinating, wonderful place it is. Used to live in Japan along long time ago, but never went to Kyoto once. Am so glad I did now. Saw authentic ge...

Bro, my geography has temporarily given up on me! Where is Hakone again? Is that where you used to live??

Horrendous. Poor, poor girl.. Before anyone points out the obvious, I am aware that the sentences for the rapists have been extended. BUT it is still rather telling to consider the original sentences - in the case of at least one offender, 10 months. She now gets six months in jail (not to mention t...

I am glad no one here pointed a finger at Islam. The Saudi lawmakers love to pass off their tribal nonsense as a part of Islam. See gt, I know what you mean. Speaking as a muslim, I feel the same way. But here's the catch. Someone like debian comes along and makes a statement like ...she might have...

Hi Jace. There are three places in Dubai which you should check out: The Colosseum Gym; Dubai Fight Academy and Top Sports. The Colosseum Gym is located in the Montana building, Karama. The muay thai lessons are taken by a guy called Edi. Nice, and very massive, Iranian chap. The Colosseum Gym puts ...

Ah thanks for the info! Are they 'beginner friendly'? And do you know of any that are closer to Dubai Marina? Thanks Ah, Dubai Marina... In that case, Top Sports would be the best option. I mean, you can definitely forget about the other two because they are way far from you... However, you might a...

Of course, if you were interested in something a little different, you could always try our very own group of Filipino Martial Arts here in Dubai:

How comes you know so much about this stuff?

Thanks again,

I box and thai-box, and I have trained at all three clubs.
As I said, they're all good. But Zak @ TopSports is really good.

Without a doubt, he will give you the best cardio workout in Dubai...

Heh! My take on the problem is this: Here in Dubai, there are tons of stunning women who think they are the sh!t. There are also loads of slick blokes who love themselves to death - more than the women in fact! The men are constantly trying to impress the ladies. Which in some cases might be appreci...

burton

Which in your opinion would be better for a beginner like myself? Top Sports with Zac or Le Meridan with George? Cheers mate Honestly bro - go with Zak. I understand your concern about being a beginner, but a good teacher is not going to push you until you puke. Having said that, there is no point ...

I am pretty sure that there are loads of girls in the middle east especially in UAE who do not come forward and report it because they are afraid of the table turning on to them and them being sentenced or deported. So that's why I don't understand your point. What you wrote above is precisely why ...

yeh u can. but how can you trust them? how do you know they are telling the truth or not? Rudeboy Despite the phenomena of 'fabricated rape', most women who call police, go to court, go through the horrible procedure of having their ordeal made public claiming they have been raped - have been. To b...

I was in the Mariners Club, in the Seaview Hotel, where the sexy Filipina band have to put with an idiot pre-empting their songs. Basically he stands up in front of this hot band and sings the lyrics of songs before they start playing. He is apparently the captain of a ship. Security put up with hi...

But more to the point Mr. Booth - what on earth were you doing in the Mariners Club?? Lol! That place is a complete dive! Does it still sound like this: Mariners Club Located in the Seaview Hotel, with not a view of the sea in sight, lies the Mariners Club. Access to this hidden gem is at the back o...

Men and women meeting platonically in a car is a basic part of life, law or not. it's a basic part of life in the west, muslims have a very different culture Really? What is 'muslim culture'?

I agree there are some laws which wouldnt make sense to a western. Even laws in UAE. But those laws have been there for decades centuries. Because of these laws the no of rape is low. no of murder cases are low, no of burgulary is low. These laws are HARSH and may seem strange to you but they only ...

it's in Japan also. South of Tokyo, east of Fuji. It's got onsen (natural hot springs), mountain villages, cool fresh mountain air, cable cars, great view of mount fuji, etc... very laid back atmosphere. As for kyoto, I plan to visit there next year actually :wink: Heh, thanks mate. I knew Hakone w...

Rape does happen but it happens everywhere. Not only in KSA. You're right. But that's the whole point - the story is focusing on what has happened to the rape victim, after the rape. The rape is not the story. That's why the media has taken such an interest. Not because the woman was raped, but bec...

I didn't take a holiday this year. And I am definitely feeling the effects. :cry: So we are planning on going back to Phils sometime next year.

I agree with pinoy1. I just don't understand the 'candy' metaphor. This is rape, not sticking your hand in the cookie jar... This whole 'women are such a temptation to men' angle is the weakest, lamest argument in history. I am not an advocate of feminist principles or ideology but when I read stuff...

Bro, what is Bantayan island like? How would you compare it to Samal Island in Davao - Paradise Resort and Pearl Farm resorts? If you been there, that is...

I have a question for debian and rudeboy - lol, the great Saudi driving debate! Generally speaking, driving = greater personal freedom. In this sense, it is entirely appropriate to conclude that allowing women to drive in Saudi Arabia would again put them in more situations where they were in the v...
