Well, every religion seems to state that only their followers will go to heaven and everyone else goes to hell.

These threads are so annoying. Of course there is prostitution here - as there is in every other country on this planet! In fact, places that claim to be morally and legally against it are often the ones that have the most of it! What's with all the threads lately about prostitution in Dubai? Is it ...

Good posts Valkyrie and Bushra. The reason why whites used to be so racist was that they were the dominant culture - their civilisations were at the top. They looked at what they deemed inferior civilisations and treated the citizens as lesser people. It just happened that the civilisations that wer...

Thanks Shaf!

But what about Valkyrie's quote? The one you posted and one Valkyrie posted seem to contradict each other.

You'll get used to it, and will make friends and find things to do when the shops and restaurants are closed. It sounds weird that everything closes at 8pm... something not right about that... but anyway, you'll adjust.

Thanks noni - great site!

Ian, you say that smokers are the best people. Care to elaborate? Personally, I find people who give in to vices, don't exercise, and who eat crap food disrespectful of the bodies that are meant to carry them for their whole lives. They are weak people who put temporary pleasure over long-term healt...

I just went to post a new thread and found this! Thanks for getting me started Concord :) Well, I've only been here for two full days, this is the start of day three. Yesterday we did a long, but awesome trip to Cameron Highlands (13 hrs!). Today I am vegging out at the gym and pool to recover :) Hu...

Why just pick out Israel's hypocrisy Freza? Did you not read about the condemnation of North Korea's test from other nuke-bearing countries like India, Pakistan, US and Russia etc.?

I see nothing wrong with asking a woman to remove her veil. She has not been asked to remove her head scarf or any other long drapey outer clothing she may be wearing. As far as I know, the Quran says nothing about having to cover one's face. Also, do these women think they are so good looking that ...

Obese is the term I prefer to use, and there is a definition of that according to a person's body mass index. Most people should be aware of that definition. Well, if we want to compare a smoker to a fat person - let's just say that a smoker pollutes the indoor air for everyone - including those who...

Well there are exceptions to every rule, but overall, I find smokers have much better socials skills, and I find them generally a touch more intelligent. Ironic I know since apparently we have a social disease and are too stupid to read the warnings. That is hilarious. I can't believe you are serio...

Oh give me a break

No one should have nukes - period!

Instead of labeling Muslims as backward and starting this baseless thread about Islam bashing and stereotyping. One should look at the history. Islam was the brightest and smartest religion in the world not so long ago while the whole world was lurking the darkness of idolatry, man worship and rat ...

Nice to see some other non-smokers here.

No worries guys, we'll have more DF events that are focused on activities rather than sitting/standing around and chain smoking. In the past we have had bowling, kart racing and ice skating events.

I'm close to 5'10" and hubby is 6'4".

I like water guns, great for shooing the cats off the kitchen counters or shooing other cats out of the backyard.

Hi Zam - we gave Genting Highlands a miss because it is more like an amusement park kind of place. Families with kids would probably really enjoy it there. MaaaD - the food here is fab, and there are many great places to eat. We've just stopped and tried small local restaurants mostly. I'll also ask...

Well, all it takes is for a pissed off neighbour or someone to tell the authorities that you are living together without being married, and boom, you have trouble. Also, if you end up conceiving a child out of wedlock, that present problems because the woman will be put in prison for giving birth ou...

kanelli

I never once recommended that people get married just to come to Dubai, I was simply telling some facts about the risks of living here unmarried. Does anyone plan to piss off their neighbour (or coworker or anyone else?) It is only common sense that people get married because they feel ready to do s...

I have a really nice single friend who can only find single and married guys who want to bed her and leave her, or she gets rejected by some guys because she doesn't look like a supermodel and dress like the gold-diggers all do. So, do guys really want a nice girl? Or do they only want a nice girl w...

Jamal, we women are always innocent.

Geez, I guess our Muslim friends here in Malaysia are in for a long Ramadan then

(See Malaysia thread and topic of Indonesian jungle fires causing severe haze in this region.)

Congrats guys!

With all due respect viewsonic, I appreciate what you are communicating about the goodness of Islam. I only hope that in the process you will not go about disrespecting other religions and put them down. As a Muslim myself I do not believe that by airing the laundry of other religions you will make...

kanelli

viewsoniczee, you are way off base to suggest that it is in the West's best interest that as many Iraqi's die as possible. How does Iraqi's dying or having a civil war get the US its oil? They need a cooperative government and people who are not hateful towards them in order to secure the political ...

I don't support coalition troops in Iraq at all. In Afghanistan I do. The Taleban should not be allowed to rule Afghanistan again. As a woman, I wish that women in Afghanistan will never again live under the terrible conditions that they suffered under the Taleban. Every woman deserves to go to scho...
