So Qatari boys with skin tight thobes, long hair, lip gloss and make up mincing through Landmark hasn't been raising eyebrows, but girls who are covered up but wearing 'manly' clothes is a problem.
It always seems to me that the guys can get away with anything in this country (cheating, drinking, dropping out school) but the the girls are held to a much higher standard - they must be virgins when they get married, can't go to bars, and are expected to cover.
I can really understand why that would lead a lot of the young girls to rebel and act out and refuse to conform to such a double standard.
