I was walking yesterday at Villaggio mall with my family wearing shorts, when suddenly 2 Qatari guys & a mall guard approached me asking for my RP ID. The mall guard said that the 2 guy his with are CIDs, they were talking in their language which I don’t know what heck they were talking about, maybe out of this world or whatsoever. After the guard took my RP no., he explained to me the reason why then we walked away. So, I don’t know what’s this all about? I never heard about it.

There is nothing wrong with respecting the country you are in. I hope they do prohibit women from walking around exposing their legs - and I hope no one gives us the IT IS HOT excuse.

no, i dont think so i mean its not that i don'n believe you but with opening it is not possiable, you are free what to where Qatar respect all religons and cultures and this is one of the reason that every year the religon confference held in Qatar by the way alkhol is allowed if you got permit and shorts not allowed to wears sound strange for me. may be some other reason as you said you didn what they were talking abt....

cheers
