Saudi Arabia's national airline to introduce gender segregation after a string of complaints

Back in 1982, my late wife and I went on R&R from Jeddah to Khartoum. We flew Saudia both ways. After a raucous few days in the fleshpots of Khartoum, we returned. Before we left our hotel, I bought a couple of minis of Beefeater’s Gin for some martinis on the way back. The plane was only half full, so I went to a seat among some empty rows. After a couple of very dry martinis, I put a half-empty mini in the back pocket of the seat in front of me. I’d have liked to have seen the face of the Saudi who reached into that pocket and pulled out the bottle of gin. “Praise Allah! It’s a miracle!”

Emirates is the absolute best.
Saudi is okay and really, after take off and when the captain announces they left Saudi airspace, all the burka-clad women jump up and rush to the bathroom and emerge totally dressed up in the latest and greatest, and some very racy, clothes.

Basically segregation would not survive beyond Saudi airspace.

Indeed.

The Amerikan Women’s FemiNazi Party needs to stay right here in the US and fight the real war on women.

They are absolutely stunningly beautiful, that is for certain.

Don’t kid yourself. Faggotry is rampant in Saudi Arabia. The consequence of making women forbidden. Men hold hands, etc. We were warned about it. The whole place is sick.

Their public acceptance of such behavior is far less than ours, and they to make every accept it as normal either.

I used to live on the Arabian Peninsula, but not in a place as nice as Saudi.

and they to make every accept it as normal either.

That was almost like English, sigh...

and the don’t try to make everyone accept it as normal.

“Recently another Israel bound plane from New York was delayed because Hasidic men refused to sit next to women.”

Can you guess why?

Oops. Sorry about the double post

Let me hear your guess why the Orthodox Jew would not sit next to women.
