Realistically there are two reasons you’re going there, one is because you have a business obligation or potential contract which incentivizes going there, and two is because you got conned by tourist bait ads that try to hush hush all this stuff because it drives people away.

I think that’s covered in “dating” unless you want to do it by yourself.

Alternatively you can also avoid going to countries with no respect for human rights. Act in a way that if everyone else did too it would have an actual impact on the world. Be the change.

Have you seen their population diagram? They import.

I wonder if it’s meant to contrast to a “chaste courtship” sort of thing. Just a wild guess, though.

I’m not inheritly against different cultures wanting to maintain their values, but I definitely wish people could freely enter and leave their culture.
In the case of Qatar, I can imagine not many women would be interested in staying if it was super easy to switch cultures, but at the same time cultures around the world are beautiful, even if different, and it’s a shame that they can’t be preserved.
- KingJalopy ( @KingJalopy@lemm.ee ) English19•14 days ago
Cultures evolve like anything else. Even language is constantly evolving. Preserving cultures is for museums, not for a growing society. I think that’s part of the reason we are in such a shitty place everywhere. 2024 and there’s still racist homophobic idiots everywhere trying to preserve the “good ol days”
