How could you.... dance!

Nodancing

Last week my boss was discussing with me how everyone in the meeting I was attending had probably broken some sort of law in Dubai. Whether it be living with a woman you weren't married to, having liquor in your house without a license, living in a mix-sex villa.... the list goes on. And it was true, everyone in that meeting was currently breaking some sort of law in Dubai.

Then, this morning, I learned of a whole new set of laws that have been drafted that are going to turn me into more of a criminal that I already am! Playing loud music.... dancing.... kissing..... inappropriate clothing... have all been deemed illegal and can result in a prison sentence.

Hold up.... a prison sentence for wearing a skirt above the knee.... man oh man am I in trouble!

Ok, I understand that you need to be respectful of a countries guidelines... I just think its a little over the top to throw someone in jail for dancing in a public place. And you think I'm exaggerating... I got in trouble on the weekend for pashing someone in a bar.... and even before these laws were put in place I've been told in two different bars to stop dancing before.... cause dancing is really going to get us in trouble!

I know.... I'm just having a moan today... still, you would think that with the amount of people leaving Dubai at the moment that you would want to be encouraging people to stay.....
