#1 But that means that the trainees would have to .. work.

Yes, but they would be working in houses. Houses wherein women are ensconced, women who are bored out of their skulls, who may even not remember to wear those black tent thingies. Young women, even, who might find a man devoting himself to the arts to be so *sigh* romaaaantic, especially if he can quote classic Arabic poetry to show his education and depth of feeling.

#3 This all sounds suspiciously like...Art. Which is unIslamic. The words of Allan via the Profit need no embellishing. Art distracts the mind of the Believer from performing the obligations of the Ummah. Especially the part about the obligation of jihad.

A fatwa upon all their unworthy heads!

#5 So, trailing wife, I guess that means these guys will be the Saudi equivalent of the pool boy? ;)

At least they'll learn how to write "Death to America! Infidels out!" really pretty.

#7 Desert Blondie, there has to be some compensation for those many Saudi households that can't quite afford a pool -- with built-in Filipino labour -- right?
