Witness <A HREF="http://bahraini.tv/?p=151" REL="nofollow">that heartless mother who killed her newborn baby</A> by putting it in a rubbish bag and leaving it at a skip in Jid Haffs last week. Why did she do that? Most probably because it was born out of wedlock and that means that she engaged in extra-marital sex the result of which is an unwanted pregnancy. And as our society looks very severely at a woman having sex out of wedlock, while completely condoning a man doing so, she thought the only thing left to her to protect her and her family's "honour" is to kill a newborn life.<BR/><BR/>As to finding ways to stop a perceived downward spiral of Bahrain becoming the sex-pot of the Gulf; well too late, we are already that but to <A HREF="http://mahmood.tv/?p=355" REL="nofollow">a lesser extent than Dubai</A>, but sex is available all over the place in Bahrain, paid or un-paid.<BR/><BR/>The best thing to do then is to permit human relationships and let them flourish, maybe they will end up loving each other and staying together, rather than chasing every amourous couple and forbidding them from just sitting together, let alone have sex.<BR/><BR/>This is a completely lost cause as far as the religious police and the State is concerned. If we are to go forward, we have to let nature take its course, and I am absolutely convinced that if we do treat sex as a normal everyday thing, as it should be, then we will suffer from its bad applications a lot less than we are at the moment.<BR/><BR/>But in Bahrain and the Gulf, that would not happen, not in a hundred years as long as those <A HREF="http://bahraini.tv/?p=159" REL="nofollow">sex-starved, pea-brained bearded ones</A> are ruling the country and holding us all hostage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22668996.post-1143176855553503242006-03-24T08:07:00.000+03:002006-03-24T08:07:00.000+03:00Yeah as a kid when I used to hang about al Bandar,...Yeah as a kid when I used to hang about al Bandar, there were always a couple of chalets frequented by notable figures which would always be a rather open display of what you just saw... <BR/><BR/>I've always adheared to Mahmood's point on this, that there needs to be some sort of organized system that protects both the client and provider or it leads to a load of serious and potentially serious problems... The biggest issue (aside from religon) one could argue would be how to stop Bahrain from then quickly degenerating into a regional pitstop for people looking for a quick boink.... well it already is to many extents, I honestly couldn't say how different it would be, most likely a reflection of the same underground market as it is today, except more open and more safe.... but then again I'm not a sex trade expert and don't pretend to be.MoClippahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06293123586642663975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22668996.post-1143136202097811082006-03-23T20:50:00.000+03:002006-03-23T20:50:00.000+03:00Wow...

And to hear of hookers in Mecca... but you know, like you say, if there's a need, then they will find a way to service it. Everybody has needs. <BR/><BR/>You know... you are absolutely right in all that you say. Maybe legalizing it to some degree would make it better. I dont have the answers, that's for sure.. but.. in Vegas, it's legal and, truthfully, it seems to work well there. And in Amsterdam it's working well... so, I think like you... maybe organizing the trade would make it better all around. <BR/><BR/>I don't think "making" someone do it or forcing them into the trade, and trafficing them into Bahrain or any country is right... but if you have ppl who want to do it as a profession, shouldn't it be up to them? <BR/><BR/>I will say this... I would love to interview one of these girls/ladies. The older Russian woman w/ her fella in the cabana next to us was VERY interesting - even tho I was eaves dropping - it just fascinated me. The younger girls seemed to be really enjoying themselves.... and they're obviously making good money or someone's providing well for them. But money doesn't buy everything.Um Naiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03079700156633283396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22668996.post-1143100116067529232006-03-23T10:48:00.000+03:002006-03-23T10:48:00.000+03:00We had government organised whores and red light d...We had <A HREF="http://mahmood.tv/?p=422" REL="nofollow">government organised whores and red light districts in Bahrain in the 1930s</A> and that went on until 1977 or '79 if I remember correctly!<BR/><BR/>Since they closed the legal sex trade in Bahrain, of course it immediately went underground with all the resultant problems of human trafficking and the scenes you have witnessed.<BR/><BR/>Do you think that any country, whichever it is, can get rid of prostitution? Not a chance, as long as there is a need, that need will be serviced. I've heard that there are practising whores even in Mecca.<BR/><BR/>So the good thing to do is organise the trade in order for it to be safe for both the provider and the customer. Otherwise, we just have to put up with the consequences.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
