Shocking Questions For Some People (1)

Straight Arrow
By Straight Arrow

Here in Qatar living many topics are discussed and I find it vey interesting but unfortunately some topics got diverted so I have decided to collect some of these questions which caused shock for some people because they did not answer these questions when I asked them, here are some of these questions: Question#1 Some people blamed Qatari men who kiss each other on the cheek to be gay, first of all it is a culture here that when some go on vacation and come back men greets each other by kissing on the cheek and this takes place in happy ocasions. Now when French women kiss each other in the work place in the morning does this mean that all these women are Lesibians? Question#2 Imagine eating animals is not allowed by people or by other stronger animals will there be a balance, or will there be more diseases and chaos? Question#3 Some had supported the participation of women in competitve sports, my question in which way this will make these women better or supperior to man? Question#4 Some claimed that the Qatari culture is a barier which does not help Qatari students when studying abroad in Europe or USA, how come the Qatari culture can be a barier and there are some Qatari students who study in USA or Europe and get the highest grade in the college and acheive bigger success than the locals themselves in Europe or USA? These are the first set of questions and later or next week there will be another four questions.

Funny that both twin brothers, SA and Frosty agree with the idea that women are inferior... I'm wondering, who gave birth to these two? he he he!

You seem to be obsessed with QL...how does it matter what others say. If you have an opinion based on your background, experience and analogy, be happy with it.

Hello,

interesting questions but in the wrong place.

you shouldn't try and educate people about our culture unless they are interested in it.

no matter what people will end up thinking or having their own opinions. at the end there is one conclusion to me. I will live my life and raise my kids following (ISLAM) NOT (CULTURE) , there is a big difference between the 2 words in the brackets.

Does any one know why the right part of our brain controls our left side of our body and the left part of our brain controls the right side of our body?

SA, if "nothing will die" plants won't die either, and they will produce more oxygen, and nobody will die. Also, algae have a lot of protein and soy, too. So, there is no need to eat meat. It only has a higher concentration of proteins than plants. You've gotta to eat more. That's all.

I understand how u feel when pple condemn ur culture or ur way of doing things... but just like finger prints we have our different opinion about things... what u may think is the best may be the worst to some1, so there is no point being sensitive abt issues like this. Do what u believe in and let whoever wants to talk do so... ur culture or belief may even be far better than his...

at my previous At my previous work place the buck of my colleagues  were foreigners with  the westerner’s mindset and it did send tsunami shock-waves across the  office-floor when   they saw me kissing my friend in the check ( ok it was more like smoochies French kiss  but  umm never mind) loool! Kiddin yo! What I feel I need to clarify her is that 1- kissing another man in the check doesn’t make you gay! It just does not! It’s the culture of the country, different nations have different cultures and norms and yeh u gotta learn to get used to seeing it. 2- had you paid  lil more attention to the way people over here ( specially men ) greet  one another there are actually different ways to it like for example the nose  to nose greeting which I don’t like or approve cuz I’m not gonna take in some other guy’s breath its’ just   not right for me even though it’s a quick nose to nose thing but umm still don’t like it and then you have to check to check and not actual kissing it’s check to check and it’s only the right side cheek  3 times and that’s it 4- And why the hell you are looking at guys kissing each other? Does it excite you? U must be having a thing for it loooooool 5- If you see tow guys   smooching or or French kissing that’s not part of the tradition and   you better run for ur life as fast as possible! lool

Imagine nothing dies then after one year what will be the situation on our earth?

The oxygen might be consumed and at one point all people will die at the same time.

The earth which we are living on is well balanced, assume the lions do not eat meat will the lions be strong?

Scientist proved that for a healthy body you need proteins, and the best natural source for proteins is meat.

I remember a story of an Indian man who was sick and went to see a doctor told him go have some proteins and come after two weeks, the man came but there was no improvement, and the doctor asked did you take the proteins, the man said no, the doctor said why? The man said I am Vagetrian, the doctor said sorry I can not help you.

Nowadays there might be alternatives for meat source.

I think no they are not gay

ok here the answers

Q1: No not necessarly Lesibians

Q2: The earth will have more germs and viruses and diseases and therer will be no balance.

Q3: Participation of women in competitive sport will not make her better or superior to man, and for sure a confident woman do not need to show her confidence in sports, she can show it in work place by doing her job efficiently and raising her children in the best way.

Q4: The culture has never been a barrier for success in studies fields.

SA: your questions are reasonable but  why to care about what people say, coz always when it is about culture or religion everyone will have his own believes and ideas, and they may like or dislike it and they may comment by negative or positive way. but finally their thoughts will not change anything as we should stick on what we believe in and let the people say whatever they want.
