I met two jerks there, in my five years.
Jerk number one: In Dammam. This younger guy, about 18 years old, was coming INTO the jewelry store and I was leaving.
HE thought I should give way and I thought that he should give way. We glared at each other, not saying a word, glaring all the way and we moved slowly and carefully around each other.
Jerk number two: Another time, this young Saudi was tailgating us on the freeway. There were three Brits in the back seat, me in the passenger seat and my husband driving.
This ahole came up on us, tailgated VERY close, then quickly passed us going way too fast, cut us off and nearly killed us.
OF COURSE he looked in his rear view mirror to see our reaction. The four men in the car didn't move but the THIRD FINGER OF MY RIGHT HAND POPPED UP, right in his face in his rear view mirror.
He was SO PISSED...because he couldn't do a thing. The men didn't flip him off, A WOMAN DID and there wasn't a thing he could do.
Lol. All four guys said with closed mouths and no expression: GOOD FOR YOU!!! They laughed and laughed.
The young Saudi got what he deserved!
My boss and his fellow Saudis sometimes LAMENTED the fact that their teenage sons, about 18 or so, didn't want to go to school or get a job. They just wanted to drive around in their cars. I told them that some our 18-year-old men were the same.
GOTTA GROW UP EVENTUALLY, son.
I spent three years in Turkey.
What I've observed is that the more religious Muslims were far more likely to be utter jerks than those who were "cultural Muslims."
