Saudi Arabia Deports Men For Being "Too Handsome"
04-24-2013, 05:51 PM
No homo on the topic here but some chick I know posted a link with the pics on her FB page. The story sounded so bizarre that I googled to verify and, surprisingly, it's true. That's one crazy government.

It’s a good problem to have, but it’s still a problem for three men who have reportedly been deported from Saudi Arabia for being “too handsome.”
The men were visiting Saudi Arabia from the United Arab Emirates to attend the annual Jenadrivah Heritage & Cultural Festival in Riyadh. They were apparently minding their own business when members of Saudi Arabia’s religious police entered the pavilion and forcibly removed them from the festival. Their offense? They were considered “too handsome” to stay for fear that women would find them irresistible, according to the Arabic-language newspaper Elaph.
“A festival official said the three Emiratis were taken out on the grounds they are too handsome and that the Commission [for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice] members feared female visitors could fall for them,” Elaph reported this week, as quoted on the website Arabian Business. The Emirati men were subsequently deported to Abu Dhabi. In Saudi Arabia women are largely prohibited from interacting with unrelated males.
After the incident, the U.A.E. released an official statement indicating that the religious police may have been on high alert because of the unplanned (and, we assume, unnerving) presence of an unnamed female artist, reported the Telegraph. It’s unclear whether the men were evicted in relation to that incident, however.

Damn, I wish I had that problem.
That's fucked up though. I've heard Saudi Arabia is a really tough place for a Westerner to live. I was talking to a guy from the states that was working there, he said at chain restaurants (For example, Applebees), there are doors on all the booths that must be closed when the women eat so that the men don't see their faces. There are some smoking women that I've seen come through Miami from Saudi Arabia. Once they leave the country they don't often wear their niqabs.

Just in case completely covering up your women wasn't enough...

He looks like a jersey shore typical guido. Why didn't he accuse them of being homo's? "Too handsome, you gay bro?"

I'd much rather be able to tell people I was deported because my good looks were considered a threat to public security than have the freedom to stay in Saudi.

Yup. I lived there for 5 years as kid.
More crazy shit they do:
2. Jewish people are not allowed inside the country.
Jews or Israelis?
Fucked up place, and to think we sell arms and lay out the red carpet for those stone age twats.
All Jews, not just Israelis. If you have a Jewish sounding name they block you from entering. I thought it was just Mecca, but it is the whole county.
I don't know why the U.S doesn't invade them. They've got tons of oil and there are legitimate human rights abuses going on there. They fund the radical Wahabi mosques in England too. As Kosko said, they fund terrorism.
I mean, I hate feminists, but it would take only the worst of them to make me want to send them to that place.
