...and the beach reminded me my last visit there... when i joined company of starring guys cause i had a nice view from my 'parkplace'. on a guy with body sculptured on the gym (but not to much pumped) who was changing poses in the sun (laying, sitting, staying). to be sure that every surface is eqaly tanned. and that there is no shadow valley on his body. and it was better object to concentrate my eyes then guys in pyjamas walking hand-in-hand, that's sure.
so, maybe for all these guys every walking lady is like dancing-in-the-sun-almost-naked men on the beach...?

This has turned into a philosophical talk. LoL.

I guess this is what defines "cultural shock".

In Abu Dhabi, it doesn't matter how pretty or ugly you are. As long as you look like you have a vagina, they will stare at ya!


Being like one of the worse culprits for it...(my wife thinks i am disgusting)....

Whats different about that to Aus really. I spose in Aus you know us guys are just thinking .."whoaaa nice rack" (its never very imaginative). However i would hate to think what is going through some of the locals minds there !!

No way! Aus is nothing compared to here! In Aus, ppl will only stare at you if you are pretty or wear sexy clothing. Here, I could be covered head to toe and still be stared at. It's just a different kinda stare. It's like you are an alien. LoL.

Very true, back home, you'll only get noticed of you're at least a 7/10 or higher and even then its only a glance, if you're wearing something provactive you might get more attention back home, but still if you're wearing something like there you're either looking dirty sl*t or wearing something really really nice and worth the attention.

Although if you walk through a construction site you might get a wolf whistle back home, but its not exactly socially acceptable for the average guy to do so back home.

When I was in Costa Rica, all the girls (even the ugly ones) wore low cut tight ass hugging pants, and it was considered rude if you didn't check a girl out there, I got dirty look when I arrived there and this girl gave me this look of "what? aren't I good looking?" whereas I observed local men there fully checking out girls walking down the street and the return look from the girls was "thanks for the compliment".
