"or are those not wearing them being disrespectful and simply tolerated?"

I am never disrespectful of Qatar or its culture - if the requirement was that we had to cover up, I would - I know many others who feel the same - and the fact is laughable that the Qataris would simply tolerate us if we were being disrespectful in our dress, shows you just how much you have to learn about Qataris - believe me when I tell you, if we were supposed to be wearing Abhaya - we would be - and every Qatari in Qatar would be making sure of it....
