- shehabhamad, on 05/12/2008, -0/+0this is a true depiction of a small slice of saudi society but certainly not indicative of middle eastern youth in general. it is interesting that the expected teenage, youthful agnst-y rebellion seems to be less pronounced in the middle east.
- Haner4, on 05/12/2008, -0/+0These young men seem awfully pathetic by modern Western and East Asian standards. Living at home and dependent at the age of 25? Watching Oprah and Dr. Phil as entertainment? Pudgy and no exercise? Heckling and harassing female strangers? Deep thoughts wavering between "there is no romance" and "there is romance"? What a catch.
It's no wonder that these Saudi men support their country's strict and misogynist social order. If these men were Chinese living in China, they would have trouble even finding women who would want them as a date.
