I just don't get it... someone tells of her experience in a lift in Qatar and someone else goes on to say she must not dress provocatively....
and then goes on to give the stats of rape in the US.... Transporter - I would think the stats of rape in South Africa are way higher - not a bragging point, but my point is.... Most South African women are not provocative dressers - infact, I am pretty good at noticing a South African in Doha cause we all dress the same - jean/pants and NON revealing tops - now please, can you explain to me why SA has one of the highest rape stats if we don't dress in the manner you maintain causes 'unwanted attention'?
If you will notice too, Fatimah has also had that experience, in Doha, in full Niqab... now how do you explain that one?
Plushed, sorry you had this happen - I can tell you from experience that you have to show confidence and never fear - the men here seem to recognise when a lady doesn't take any nonsence and back off right away - they pray on the ones they think will accept the advances because they are to scared to react...
I brough a South African police issue CS gas canister with me, used it once - am almost sure the guy never bothered another female again;-P
