Has anyone been to Dubai? What do the women wear? Is it a strict place for females? I personally would not have a problem covering up. I don't like being stared at anyway. | [Edited: 06:55 - WildChild ] arabian man arabian Post Count: 2 Msg: #2 857 days ago, March 21st 2006 | hello wild | im an native emirate and i must tell you .. you are so welcome in the united arab emirates and dubai ... the country is good and peaceful .. about women we have here more than 100 000 from usa , canada live here peacefuly and have a normal life no one force them to wear something they dont want it .. after all it is there life u can wear whatever u want here .. it is free land as they say you r so welcome to ask me anything i will be glad to give u some hints about my country so feel free dear  Al n Shez Alan Post Count: 1 Msg: #3 786 days ago, May 31st 2006 | Dubai is the most rapidly expanding and modern cities in the world - 60% of the world's tower cranes are there, "arabian man" is certainly right, the UAE is one of the safest places in the world and has everything from breattakingly beautiful dunes, mountains and beaches to buildings that will make you go wow. | I am English and live and work in here in Abu Dhabi, the Emiratis that I have met are courteous, generous and welcoming. I think it is a great place. Obviously if you walk around the town in a bikini it would be frowned upon, but generally you can wear what you like although covering up from the sun is a good idea too, and in the winter you might need a jumper, especially at night. louloubelle louise newbigin Post Count: 3 Msg: #4 122 days ago, March 25th 2008 | i haven't yet been to dubai but friends have and they just loved it!! all women by the way. | i've been using www.tripadvisor.co.uk and www.cranley.com to find out hotel and area info for my planned trip so they might help you out. i don't think it's like spain where you can literally go around the beach areas and shops in a bikini as some do, but i dont think it's as restricted as some people think it is. hope you have a great time if you go. let us know where you're staying budgetrips genuine Post Count: 4 Msg: #5 108 days ago, April 8th 2008 | Well, as modern and advance Dubai is its still strict about things such as clothing. As a consequence clothing should be conservative in Dubai. As a women you should avoid wearing revealing or tightly fitting clothing, especially in rural areas, and go for garments such as loosely cut trousers and long dresses. Also in some of the smaller <snip>in rural areas you would not be allowed to check in without a man. A women on its own would be rejected at the reception. But this is usually only for smaller and traditional hotels. Remember in the United Emirates a women is stickily speaking not allowed to walk on her own down the street. And there are many more things you should consider just not to be surprised too much. :) | [Edited: 14:36 - Jo Trouble - url removed.

A thrilling dive in the sand dunes followed by a BBQ Dinner and live Belly Dance ensures you an experience of a life time in Dubai. | DubaiKid [Edited: 07:09 - Administration - Url removed.

Kinda dumb, seeing as how I am the initiator of this post and seriously have no desire to see another woman dance, and not entirely appropriate for this forum. Craigslist erotic section maybe? | [Edited: 15:37 - WildChild ] Number of Users: 6 | Number of Posts: 8 | ||||||||||||||||
