To all western women - run when you meet another suave Arab man

Dear Reader,

I have both Arab male and female friends and studied in the Middle East. I enjoy many aspects of Arab culture and have learned to understand how it operates. By all means, enjoy the culture and make friends with people from that part of the world. But when you meet the men, be on your guard. In general, I would say don't go there unless all you want is a cute guy to have fun with. Be honest that you are just looking for fun; you don't want anyone to get hurt just as much as you don't want to get hurt. But DO NOT lose your heart to these guys. Desperate souls do not have the luxury of being compassionate and kind. Don't look for these attributes with these men. That is not to say there are no kind or compassionate Arab men; it's just that you are looking for the few needles in a haystack. It's too much a risk. Also pass on your comments and this website to your female friends. Adverting people to lock their homes is the only way to prevent from getting robbed. Pass it on. We must all thank Daniel Pipes for starting this website.
