Lol. An honest man.
There is SUCH rigorous division of the genders that it's not surprising.
Things are changing there as there is no need for tent-living (TWO sides of the tent, where one gender slept on one side and vice versa) or compound-living, where there are segregated areas and some "couples" areas.
SOME younger couples are enjoying the delight of living on their own, just the two of them.
It's a trend that might actually spread, to the delight of many young couples. I suppose it depends on the growth of towns where these things are feasible.
As the Saudis leave the sheep industry, they might have to have MORE VISIBLE prostitution. THAT would create much public criticism and flak from the rest of the Muslim world.
Who knows? Lol. Who cares?
The Saudi, Muslim and Arab culture is something else, isn't it? It's just TOO different from our western, Christian, American culture, isn't it?
When we were over there we were truly isolated from our Western culture. I used to sign my letters: From the dark side of the moon.
So... some bright, promising young guy got turned down for a place at Cambridge because the liberated dons wanted to make room for this numbskull?
And how often is the same thing happening in the US...?
