Very interesting thoughts by people who posted here...
However, I get concerned by the statements which state that the local authorities are contradicting themselves by allowing bars, selling alcohol and not allowing type of dressing which some people feel should be allowed...
Haven’t the local authorities bent backwards to accommodate the requirements of us expatriates by allowing us the facilities and places to have our drink, by providing access to how and what we wear at certain places such as resorts etc when we want to have fun at beaches.. Do we really need to make them bent more and more in our never ending demands that we have been doing like this so it has to be like this only else we ridicule you and call u regressive etc. etc. I think they are far more progressive and accommodating than any of us expatriates. They have accommodated so much for us.. are we ready to accept even one thing from them... and I would never understand how someone or any country becomes more progressive by wearing or allowing to wear less clothes as I think clothes were invented to cover ourselves rather than use them to reveal ourselves “strategically” …
And I will never understand how the pleasure of having a drink is related to wearing certain type of clothes (revealing clothes per se as is being the point of discussion here), does the drink taste any different... and where is it written that when go to a bar one should be dressed in revealing clothes only. As I read on some other thread where someone said that when I go to a bar I would like to wear revealing dresses... now if I understand the meaning of revealing...it means divulge, expose, make public…. now when u are intentionally lending certain parts of your body for public viewing why then the same person comes back whining here that the men were looking at me as if they have never seen one before... come on ... this is too much of a double standard ... you are advised not to put yourself on show, still u fight back and put urself on show and then when it is seen u have problem with that too...
I just see it as much ado about nothing... we all very well knew before coming here what and how it is going to be and still tried our best to come here and once here we try to impose our thoughts ... come on guys take a chill pill.. enjoy what u have instead of spending time and effort in finding fault with anything and everything.. every place has its advantages and disadvantages... success and satisfaction lies in taking them in your stride and making the best out of them...
