You are spot on. I was just in Bahrain, and all the manual labor was being done by men who looked Filipino or from the Indian subcontinent.

You've seen or heard nothing, till you've sat through Billy Ray Cryus' "Achy Breaky Heart" performed by an all female Filipino band in white mini-skirts at the Sheritan in Manama. Makes you just want to pint-on and laugh all night long.

That's why we're here for each other, buddy.

Together we know a helluva a lot more about the world then we do individually (or if we watch CBS News).

#9  Mcsegeek, afaik the UAE doesn't practice widespread female infanticide or sex-selection abortions. They just import lots of males as migrant workers from countries that do.

(Like India, which is majority Hindu).

#7  "It's an artificial population imbalalance caused by unbalanced immigration."

Gee, and here I thought it was a mental imbalance, caused by a foul cult called Islam, resulting in Bourkas, beatings, 'honor' killings and repression of women throughout the muslim world.

Shows how much I know.

#6  Not much chance for a Muslim to get 4 wives.

#5  It doesn't have anything to do with infanticide per se. It's an artificial population imbalalance caused by unbalanced immigration.

#4  If there's 3 men for every wiman, that means there's about, say, one pre-teen boy for every man, or even more. Voilà! Problem solved.
