Dubai is remarkably "nice" to women. For instance, husbands are encouraged to make a wife see sense by whipping her, rather than immediately resorting to divorce because she interrupted him while watching the footie...
Hidden Image/Members OnlyWomen have to know that they have rights too, though 'of course' they are not the same rights as men.
Or pets.

and couldn't be divorced for distracting the driver either) :

flogging is more common).

get free food (if you aren't being raped, flogged, or dropping litter)
Hidden Image/Members OnlyHidden Image/Members OnlyThese rich people will not hesitate to put 'third world blasphemer' Brits in
jail for many things, although fucking a prostitute probably isn't as bad as fucking a camel. You should, however, take care not to
kiss or cuddle in public (with a woman or a camel).
Pornographic material, drugs and
anti-Islamic material are not permitted. Be aware that some everyday items may also be banned. Possession of
painkillers, for example, and some
cold and flu remedies is considered illegal and if you are found with them on your person you could be on the receiving end of mandatory four-year prison sentence. It is illegal to take
photographs of many government buildings. If you take your fiancé or a hooker with you (same thing if you're caught having sex) then you'd better get a marriage license the night before and have it annulled in the morning. The hotel staff then raping her for instance, would be a good enough reason to divorce, no problem! And if you're bored with spending more on a mobile phone than it costs to buy many a three-bedroom house in Britain, you could always go for a game of tennis.
