No, Supernurse, I think most are like me here in Qatar. Pigs are nothing to be offended about. They are Allah's creation after all. But as Jauntie was saying, a small minority of (equally small minded) people may take offence. Sensibility to the culture of your guest country I suppose is the way to go.
For me, the whole pig thing is blown way out of proportion. Just don't eat it if you do't want to but don't make a big deal out of it.
