Bikini's are not an approved clothing but you will see hundreds of people in bikinis at the beach and i think they are trying to introduce fines but honestly, no-one gives a fuck and what's the big deal?

Well maybe if you visit, you can observe the foreigners and their behavior and maybe talk to them. Wherever you go, you see europeans, americans, brits, russians etc. The certain rules in place are no reason to drop Dubai. If it was nearly as bad as some people make out, it wouldn't be anywhere near such a big destination.

When I was in the UK (over a decade ago), Dubai was becoming the number one destination for Brits but I think its gone even much higher since then.

I've traveled to over 50 countries and more than 200 cities. I've been to Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi, UAE to name just a few and I live in a muslim country so I know the score. Arabs are basically very decent people and as you rightly say, there is a lot of bullshit propaganda.

I bet you would really enjoy a short trip there.

Exactly :2 cents:

Dubai is one of the nicest country in the world..

Are you really that dense? It was a COVER UP. Why did they cover up if that was LEGAL?

:helpme:error

It is not a country, if you endorse something at least know basic facts. :1orglaugh

Dubai is known for luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture and a lively nightlife scene. Burj Khalifa, an 830m-tall tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. At its foot lies Dubai Fountain, with jets and lights choreographed to music. On man-made islands just offshore is Atlantis, the Palm, a resort with water and marine-animal parks. Indeed, Dubai is one of the beautiful countries in the world.

.................

Correction, Dubai is just a city within a country (The UAE ie "The United Arab Emirates"). Anyhow, all of you wanting to get a better picture about how things REALLY are in Dubai, here is 15 minutes of video which will give you a small taster:





Remember guys, the best month to go is December!

I really don't want to go to a place where I even have concider these things...

Not just a city. It's an Emirate. Something like a state with its own chief (aka emir).

Stay in your mom's basement with your Cheetos where you're safe :1orglaugh j/k

There really isn't much to consider, some of the information in here is very wrong and highly exaggerated. Are there better places than Dubai to spend your money to go on vacation to? Yes. Is Dubai an amazing City that is only getting bigger and better? Yes. My main gripe is the narrow mindedness and bullshit about what you can/can't do there.

If I didn't go to places because of every bullshit comment that is made, I'd stick to Canada & Scotland only. As it is, I enjoy travel and going to new places so I'm not afraid to go somewhere to check it out for myself.

Read my posts in this thread..

Dubai is super fun.. been there LOTS of times.. I have friends who grew up and STILL LIVE IN DUBAI

Just 2 rules:

1.Just dont do or try to buy or have anything to do with DRUGS
2. No public kissing, etc

Someone here said you can kiss in public in dubai. Dont do it.. my friend kissed his girl in some store and the people there called the police while they were shopping and they got detained for a while..

I told you i got yelled at by an arab guy cuz my girl was holding my hands and kinda holding me super close.. (he basically said something like: go back to your country you stupid tourist, dont do that nonsense in my country, next time ill call the police)

Oh yeah also dont try to flip off a local or tell him to fuck off..

Basically all it comes down to is:

1. No drugs
2. keep your dick in your pants in public
3. dont fuck with locals(you will know them as they usually have traditional arab wear on)

Dubai isnt like america, if i know someone that knows someone i can basically legally get the police to fuck with you..

Also if you know the right people you can also escape any type of problems..

Enjoy..

Sounds like a glorified Phillipines

Who cares, they will be all in europe until then. Free to decapitate, stone and force sharia law.

Con cider or sin cider? Con cider for me!

I don't get it :warning. So i need to wear sweater to go to mall when its outside 40c heat ? :Oh crap

I must say, I lived in Dubai and I must have been in the Dubai mall well over a hundred times and I never saw that sign so (assuming it exists) it looks like someone was *really* searching for it. Well it does it say explicitly "Guidelines" although if you look at any youtube video of the Dubai Mall you'll see lots of people who are not exactly conforming.

you couldnt pay me to go there. who the fuck wants to go on vacation and worry about appearing drunk, kissing your wife (even holding fucking hands!), smoking a joint. no thanks.

ill go to europe and do all that with no worries, while meeting cool like-minded people in the process. plus i get to see buildings that have been there for centuries, not brand new overblown shit built on the backs of pseudo-slave labor.

Looks beautiful, but I doubt I would ever visit a Muslim country. Just not my cup of tea.

I'm going to make first trip to Dubai next week. I'll keep you updated :winkwink:

They have some real hurty jelly fishes in the Persian Gulf. Been there felt that...

Sounds awesome! Give up basic human rights, be on guard at all times not to touch my gf and cowtow to towelhead locals and oh, make sure my girl isn't showing too much skin... no matter, want to see some tall, shiny buildings! booking tickets now!

Don't forget that if she's gangraped by locals for showing too much skin she'll be arrested and charged if she reports it :1orglaugh

You live a sheltered life. are you a prepper? :1orglaugh

There are a dozen countries that I've been to that offer the same as Dubai yet without sacrificing basic human rights; high end shopping, nice hotels and restaurants, and so on.
For one example, I prefer to visit any number of cities in Brasil where women to men ratio is 5 to 1, friendly people, great food, nice beaches, cool culture and lovely country side. And people dress and do whatever and however they please.

I have a fundamental problem with Dubai; a place built strictly to attract foreigners and tourists yet impose archaic, 5th century rules with respect to women. I get the whole 'if you are in a foreign country then you must respect their laws', sure, but not being comfortable to hold your gf's hand or give her a kiss or her wearing what she wants while on vacation, well that just sounds fuckin dumb.

And btw, I've been to Dubai 3 times for business.

RummyBoy is a well known anti American shit stirrer here who says he's been/done anywhere/anything that's being discussed, just so you know. He's been called out many times by others.

UK woman arrested & charged for ‘extramarital sex’ in Dubai after reporting gang rape

https://www.rt.com/uk/367198-dubai-u...n-arrest-rape/


"All sex outside of marriage is illegal in the UAE, “irrespective of any relationship you may have with your partner in the UK” according to the British government’s foreign travel advice for the UAE.

“It’s against the law to live together, or to share the same hotel room, with someone of the opposite sex to whom you aren’t married or closely related,” reads the advice before warning that tourists “run the risk of prosecution, imprisonment and/or a fine and deportation” if they’re a found to have broken the law."


Sounds like an absolute dream place to visit ;)

oh crap, just read this, this morning & now posted a thread...

Shall leave it as many will miss your post here. What a horrible tragic story.

It's because the laws do not notice the difference between a woman consenting and rape, it's mental. Fucking assholes :mad: :disgust :Oh crap

Well Dubai is top 4 destination for visitors :2 cents:

http://www.khaleejtimes.com/assets/jpg/KT88111025.JPG

I have never been there myself but I have watched documentaries on the place and it seems very, very nice. Would love to visit myself sometime. Have a safe and fun trip!

Sure because GFY people always repeatedly visit places they despise. It's trending, you know?

Doesn't need to sound like anything, since you've been there 3 times for business. :1orglaugh

That's correct, I was there each time under obligation for work, not that I chose to go there for a fun-filled vacation with my gf covered from head to toe in black garb. The point is, this is a place I know personally relatively well.

You may think you're coming off sounding clever and well-informed, I think most would agree you just sound like a dumbass.

Never been there but some friend say that is really awesome... :D :thumbsup

this is crazy video. they have lot of money so they can buy whateever they want...

You gonna spend some quality time there my friend!!
