Easy to say as a man. Unfortunately most of these countries aren't safe or comfortable places for women to go, which says it all. Might end up getting stoned to death for showing some hair or skin or daring to speak at all.

It's illegal for men to show skin in Dubai as well you know

How do you know I'm a man? I haven't mentioned it.

That's not true. My son was in Dubai last year visiting a friend who is a national and there were lots of people in shorts and t shirts around the city and mall. The young guys working the burj khalifa glide which my son did wore t shirts and shorts. Even one of the Prince's can be found on the net doing the base jump glide in a t shirt.

Pretty safe assumption I think.

it.
Actually I didn't know that - not even sure I believe that. If so, at least the men get to wear white, unlike the poor women who have to struggle in heat-attracting black. Clearly not a decision made by the poor women. The men there really do hate women.

Dubai Prince doing the Burj Khalifa in shorts and t shirt, definitely showing some skin. Handsome chap.

It has huge tourist interests and is one of the more liberal places in the middle east. Also one of the prettiest cities I've ever seen.

Yeah, I'd imagine it isn't the "norm" when it comes to the middle east
