[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Qatar. I think it is kind of a place most people wouldn't think to vacation. We absolutely loved it and I was pretty shocked by what a great time I had (i admittedly didn't know much about it before we went) [/quote]
IDK.. I don't think I like the idea of spending my money in a country where women are second class citizens. Just doesn't feel right to me.[/quote]

I hate this attitude from Americans. We’ve never had a woman president, we teach college women that they can’t go out alone at night because they’ll be raped, yet we’re the backwards ones. Learn to think critically about your own environment, see beyond the American perspective. [/quote]

We have a lot to work on, no doubt. But if you think this isn't one of the best countries in the world to be born (and grow up) female, at least one of the following is true of you: a) you haven't traveled much at all, especially outside Europe and North America; b) you grew up very wealthy in a country that sometimes gets called out for its treatment of women, and you simply can't understand it, because in your chauffeured youth at home, you never got treated poorly by the doormen or male servants!, c) you think your attitude is the attitude shared by all the "right" kind of people...and you're a striver who desires to become one.

Anyway, may you never have cause to change your mind after a bad experience overseas.[/quote]
