No RVP, you assumed incorrectly and still don't see it. I have stated clearly in other threads that I did not support the invasion of Iraq at all, and implied none of what you said in my previous post. And you do many Europeans and North Americans a disservice by saying they aren't aware of the inj...

these are just a few examples. so if i came a bit hard on the us, then im sorry, but when people say that dubai is such a horrible place to live...and yet those people are still living here, it just angers me so much. Bushra sorry to hear that you have experienced these things. And there is no reas...

No, you are changing your tune. You claimed that I implied that the coaltion should have invaded Iraq. I said no such thing and you have not provided any evidence of that. Now you are suddenly shifting focus to say that I don't acknowledge the root causes. Anyone who has read any of my posts in thi...

well, the lawyers i used to work for helped their clients and took those cases to court...there were indians, pakistanis, westerners, all types. it was something common to see everyday going to work. i think the problem is that most dont say anything, maybe if they did the whole country could start...

expensive as hell though to get their services, but in the end its worth it.

So i guess that puts them out of reach for 80%+ of South East Asians.... and the problem goes on.

MEN! Explain me one thing: why if a man has a lot of girlfiriend he is called Casanova but if a girl has many boyfriends she is called wh*re A? :?: its a society thing no it is not, the whole world look at it that way, casanova for a player man and s for a girl. Ever been to Scandinavia? In my nati...

Clearly I am aware that Iraq and Afghanistan have been destabilised when their rulers were removed. In fact, I'm pretty sure that most people are clued into that fact... Do you want to keep lecturing us on the "root causes"? most people are not clued up about root causes. They are too oft...

Do you really think that Arab League can help tame the chaos? What kind of infrastructure do they have to get on the ground and running with a plan? Also, isn't Iran already involved with the Shiias at the moment, and haven't they always been? If the coalition leaves and then there is mass genocide...

So men and women in Sweden don't ever call another woman a whore or fairy if she has slept with lots of men and they feel like saying something nasty? That is pretty amazing. Take a ferry ride over to Finland and you find both men and women are capable of being judgemental and verbally abusive abou...

Actually, no that is incorrect. The Taleban was the group ruling Afghanistan that allowed Osama and Al Qaeda to thrive in Afghanistan. Osama did not create and does not lead the Taleban. If he is confirmed dead, and with now the US govt saying that the Al qaeda leadership is returning to the middle...

Interesting suggestions RVP, I have no clue what would work or not. The situation looks pretty dire in Iraq at least. There is hope for Afghanistan if the warlords can have the power cut out from underneath them. They need real government action and unity of the people as well. Unfortunately, when ...

kanelli wrote:I partially agree RVP. What I was saying is that there is still a stigma - even if much less in the Nordic countries. You don't see the men called sluts or whores for sleeping with a lot of women - seems women are honoured with those judgements when it suits.

Fair point

Okay so lets hear form you all. Why are the girls in Dubai so easy ? Is it lack of quality guys? Is it the transient nature of the town making "casual" fun the order of the day ? Or is it shallow girls who are in pursuit of material things and easy to impress that way ? And a question for...

Maaad
Great original post. Not sure why this thread is going so off topic, but thumbs up to you for such an informative post.

RVP.

yes we import them from ur country you despiteful thing… my country??\ without canadians , americans or europeans , your country would still be a desert full of savages chopping each other limbs and hands off now stick that up your fat , arrogant arab a#s ... biyatch Even though i do not nece...

No one is denying what foreign pop did for Dubai RV but don't convince me its done for nothing everyone got somthn out of it..last week i met one of the richest Asian families in Dubai..i wont say the name..they had their UAE passports and i know many others did..we are as local a minority in this ...

Money does talk and if a guy has it..he will MAKE SURE to flash it and many money hungry girls will go for it......wasn't that was easy? So yeah money does talk but only for one night...beyond that you are a lonely lonely man Must be noted that this by no means applies to all men and all women I pe...

is this possible? Does anyone else think this is hypocritical? I do think it is important to respect the customs of the month, and restrain yourself...but why try and be so religous for a month when you are just gonna go back to your old lifestyle. I just don't see how it is doing any good. And I a...

When I would go with my Pakistani friends, I often saw a difference in treatment towards them (not me though). Not anything mean or offensive, but getting seated last when we were ahead of so many people or not being able to get into certain clubs.....It was very subtle. We covered this subject and...

I think I very clearly stated that I am no one to judge anyone. And I hope I didn't come across that way. You are completely right that in the end...god is the only one who will judge and I was not disputing that at all. When I was speaking of hypocrisy I was just pointing out the changes people ma...

So, some people care what others/society think of them, for me it does not make sense!!! either do it properly for the sake of allh or do not change your life for one month. Hmm Sara , you are touching the very sensitivities here. im not trying to twist your words but, Are you suggesting that if so...

Do you have hard evidence of what you are saying happened. Meaning, were you there? In my opinion, a country should deal and fix with their own problems before going and attempting to 'help' fix another. Hmmm Bushra I think you are being a little unfair here. The Camel Jockey is something that has ...

As I said repentance main condition is the determination to give up the sin but if you slip hopefully allah will forgive you but, What iam talking about is people only stop all the sins and make plan ahead will meet in 30 days to go partying. They are defeating the purpose of this fast, yes it is b...

1) increase in rape crimes 2) increase in fun among the men so this tightly controlled prostitution (and govrement is very aware of it .. how many countries do you have to test for AIDS to get a visa for) is not there just for fun, its important in the big picture. Again i am not defending it, but ...

To blame men for the perception of some women does not answer why the perception exists. I think that we have to admit that there are plenty of slutty women in Dubai and it tarnishes the image of the city and of soceity to some point - and some people just wonder - what's up with that? (That was th...

I respect the fact that you have your own opinion; however, I think you should learn a different, and better way of expressing it. The indian workers, that you have used in your example mate, were not forced to come here...i.e. no one held a gun to their head, forced them into a plane, to apply for...

i Couldnt agree more. Sometimes a slap is needed. When it comes to child abuse, it is one of those times.

Well then, if that is the case, I am not absolving the Sheikh of any wrong doing, and I am not saying that he is guilty either BUT it is also the parents fault for selling their children. because that is essentialy what they are doing, selling , giving their children for money. In most cases childr...
