Like everybody here I read and hear about all the attacks, riots, beheading and general violence that goes on in the Muslim world. But what is really strange [for me anyway] is little to nothing like that happen here in the UAE. Beleive me...when the company decided to send me here a year ago I thought......great I'm fucked. No beer, no pork......and they are sending the biggest queer in the company to a place that frowns on queers. Hubby was very unhappy to put it kindly, and I told him that it was only for a short time [i lied....the company only sends me to places they can't get anybody else to work]    Anyway...one year later and many beers later, I'm still in one piece and even have Muslim friends. And no problems what some ever.....matter of fact I have found that most of the Muslims here are nice people. So my question is why is everywhere else the Muslims are killing and rioting...but not here?

That's what I think...also the opinion of most of the Muslims I talk to here.

They are being nice to you because women are for babies and boys are for fun.



Either that or not all Muslims are uneducated fanatics: there are different versions of Islam (Sunni, Shiite) and within each of those different versions there are different interpretations of the Koran (just as there are different versions of Christianity and within each version there are different interpretations of the Bible).




Some people take every word of the Bible literally even if it conflicts with what non-believers think is scientific fact, the same happens with the Koran, but the difference is a literal interpretation of the Koran justifies (to them) killing unbelievers etc etc.

I have some Muslim friends who come from wealthy familys.  They are as westernized as any of my other friends despite being born in the middle east.

Strangely very ungay........though the ME men tend to be strangely close to each other. Example there are more guys holding hands and cuddling in public then West Hollywood.

So, are you a queer with a husband, or did I just read that wrong?  At any rate, I tend to believe that most people are nice no matter where you go.  Some definitely more nice than others.  Don't kid yourself though, Islam is a perverse religion.  Some just take it more literally, or follow it more closely than others.

A case of Johnny Walker Red was the main currency of bribery there many years ago. You could get a work visa, a driver's license, etc., with a case of Johnny put into the right hands.

As for Chinese girls, I'm guessing 12-15 years old is preferred.

"ungay"!??



UAE has the highest adult male-to-female population ratio in the world. Something like 2.7 males for every 1 female. It's like they don't even WANT women over there. They must ship'em out when they hit 18 or something!



It's not ungay - it's frickin raining men over there!

The poorer a society is, the more likely it is to engage in violent behavior; they have a lot less to lose, and their ideals are one of the few things they cling to strongly. In the UAE, people have more to lose I imagine.

Yeah, but UAE directly funded Al Qaeda and were one of only three nations to officially recognize the Taliban as the rulers of Afghanistan up until 9-11 (the others being Cuba and NK).

Well they may think they are getting 12-15 yr olds......but more like 35-40. Chinese girls are sneaky that way.....and I know this because I'm freinds with a lot of the bar girls here.

You don't need to be gay [not that I'm not encourging that]......just have money.

Slightly male skewed is an understatement; percentage wise it's kind of close, but in absolute numbers it's huge. There are areas of China where the men so outnumber the women that violence is significantly higher in those areas. Selective abortions and all will cause huge issues in China in the future.

I didn't know you were a fudge nudger Stoner.  (gay friend at work uses that colorful phrase to describe himself).  I can confirm that a homosexual's posts don't look any different than a non homosexuals post.

Back to the OP's initial inquiry.  From what I understand is there are a lot of homosexuals in Islam.  It's a "cool" thing to do.
