walking along the street
By angel_surfer •
i was walking along the street in doha wearing jeans/pants and loose tshirt. i have a long black hair but dont wear any make up or lipstick. i was annoyed to have seen men to look at women like they are being stripped off with their clothes. too disgusting to take a walk outside. :(
Wear nice reflectors and let it reflect any dirty gazes back to the perpetrators.
get used to it DUDE ! it don't matter if you're a girl or a guy you will get a dirty look here in qatar in different ways.
and yeah there is a reason for why it happens here the most. according to Wikipedia- " Because a large percentage of the expatriates are male, Qatar has a heavily skewed sex ratio, with 3.46 males per female." so you know they don't really see a lot of "you" out there in the street walking with a J Lo booty, so you get the pervertic look !
In this instance, i am assuming that it was you who was ogled and mentaly abused..
you wont get any sympathy here angel, most of the people here are from backward countries where staring at women are considered as normal
krok, not all issues/topics posted here in the forum pertains to the one posting it. it maybe a discussion within my peers and no one can answer it. so if its bothering you that topics i am posting is contradicting, then you may not react.
experience???
Drama..
you must have a rockin ar$e?
Enjoy the fleeting admiration and attention. Out here you even have guys staring at the dressed dolls in the shop windows. Dont blame the guys just take a moment to understand the situation they are in. Its normal to stare and they would stare at a camel passing by if it was a camel instead of you.
Driving back home yesterday @ 3.30 PM while waiting for traffic to move in front saw a girl in almost see through top... guess if she saw me looking and think I was staring, as in 'staring', she obviously is wrong... I was just a bit surprised, going by the acceptable dress code oft mentioned here... and that took me time to take my eyes off her...
that people in other parts of the world where women are dressed the way u describe are being looked at... i somehow do not understand what is the agenda behind this part of the world... people are bad, weather is bad, this is bad that is bad... but still u are here... why... please go ... its a free will .. u can leave as and when u like ... dont crib and cry...
there are some real morons on this thread....but this is far from being a surprise.
The Beast & krazysyklone .... I like your comments :D
Strange coincidence that this is the same lady who asked what would happen to a woman who fell pregnant in Qatar ...
Baldrick is right. A lot of the other comments are just insensitive but I can't be bothered to explain.
OH MY GOD someone stared at you?!?!?!?!
Tell me where to send my battle tank, will blast the ba****ds into oblivion.
take it as a compliment...perhaps you're an eye candy!
What do you expect in a country were women (including old, local, expats and young) are only 25% of the whole Qatar population... It's a disaster already
take it as a compliment
Not mean, just a realist.
OK, 3rd choice: wear a burqa.
Bullc**p!!!
Looks like all girls will accept you silly issue men are looking at you - Where you dressed or not to bother so much
Next what made you wear a jeans and a loose shirt ???
That it self shows that wearing jeans to exhibit more of the hip and lower areas . Try to dress well so no one will look at you in a strange way .
What happens if some one looks and admire your god given beauty - Hope you will melt as wax !!!!!!!!!!!!
Solution : Buy a ABAYA and cover yourself so no one will know what you have and no more you will have such complaints my dear .
cheers carry on
Why you bother when someone looks at you .
Good is always admired so take it that way .
Majority of the Girls love men looking at them just one specimen in the world who takes this has a complaint .
Pls stop discussing such small silly issues here
25 years and I have yet to see a woman who REALLY hates it when men check her out and doesn't flaunt it by claiming that it's bothering her...
the best solution ignore or give harsh look...
Take it as compliment
may be they were just praising your beauty.. but didn't knw how to.. so were just staring...
dont worry, you'll get used to it.
May be they are looking such a special long black hair !!!
somewhere in al asmahk...
hmm the worst pblm here...

take it or leave
Anyways welcome to Doha
Regards!!
You either get used to it or leave.
