    How old are you and who do you want to meet? (age, gender, etc).

    In Jeddah, it is much easier to meet guys than girls but it's possible (as long as it's not the local girls anyway). ^_^

    Thrilling stuff? Then you're in the wrong country! LOL. This is Saudi Arabia and I have seen more exciting ant races. hehehe

  • Saudi arabia is a Gay society!

    for new comers be carefull from anyone , dont trust anyone..especially saudi..mostly men n boys in saudi arabia are frustated horny & ready to rape,f*** women,kids,men,boys anytime.there is no islam all is bullshit society for u looking for friendship & fun you may end up in a gay trap! just read this below!
    14 oct 2008 ... a filipino worker was beheaded in saudi arabia on tuesday after his death sentence was affirmed by the kingdom’s supreme court
    saudi arabia has public beheadings not only for murderer (that would be one thing) but also for such ”crimes” as adultery, homosexuality, and drug use.
    bedoya, approx 22 years of age, resisted the rape attempt of a saudi man. he fought. and in the fight, killed the saudi man who raped him.conejos said bidoya was sentenced to death by the jeddah sharia grand court in april 2007 for killing a saudi national royal guard.

    bidoya's execution was carried out despite the appeal for clemency of president gloria macapagal arroyo to saudi arabia king abdullah bin abdulaziz al-saud.
    riyadh, saudi arabia — saudi authorities on saturday beheaded an indonesian maid convicted of killing her employer, the interior ministry announced.

    in a statement carried by the official saudi press agency, the ministry said the maid used a pillow to suffocate her employer aisha al makhaled and then stole her jewelry in the southern province of asir.

    saudi arabia follows a strict interpretation of islam under which those convicted of murder, drug trafficking, rape and armed robbery are executed in public with a sword.

    the maid is the second person to be executed this year in the desert kingdom, according to an associated press count. saudi arabia beheaded 137 people last year, up sharply from the 38 in 2006.

    imprisoned and exiled for denouncing man who raped her
    isma mahmood, of pakistani parents, reported a man who raped her in medina,saudi arabia. she was chained for six months in jail and then expelled from the country. the perpetrator, a saudi man, got away scot-free.
    karachi (asianews/agencies:afp)

    expelled after six months in prison in saudi arabia for reporting the man who raped her: this was the fate of isma mahmood, 16 years, who has been in the care of the ansar burney trust for a month in pakistan. "it's difficult for me to talk about what happened to me," admitted the teenager, now in karachi with her sister muna, 18 years, who was also deported.
    isma was raped in the holy city of medina.
    "i was the victim, i was raped but i was named as the accused, and the man who committed the crime was not touched," she said. "he first kidnapped me, dragged me into his car. at first he asked to sleep with me and offered good money. when i refused and tried to resist, he warned me of dire consequences and raped me in the car."
    the man warned her she would be imprisoned if she went to the police
    i am very powerful and could declare you a bad girl
    threatened isma and muna, warning they would be punished unless they kept silent, she said,
    they were also threatened with harsh consequences if isma and her sister talked.
    "i and my sister went to police anyhow as we expected justice. but after a few hours of filing the report, we realised this would not be the case," isma said.
    muna was also arrested and jailed, just because she testified on her sister's behalf. "they don't support immigrants and protect saudi nationals," isma said.
    the two women said most detainees in the cell were pakistani, indonesian and nigerian women.“once a jail official offered me help and assured me i would be released if i agreed to sleep with him ”
    many had come to saudi arabia illegally and had been accused of prostitution.
    muna said: "we were chained all during this period. the only time jail officials removed the chain was during lunch or when anyone went to the bathroom or at prayer time."
    the chairperson of the ansar burney trust told many asian women drawn to saudi arabia by pledges of good wages as domestics or nurses, were later forced into prostitution.
    riyadh,saudi arabia..one of horrific crime of saudi regime..nineteen year old princess misha'al bint fahd al saud and her lover khalid muhalhal were publicly executed in a jeddah parking lot without benefit of trial.she however secretly married a lebanese (i think), he was no where as wealthy as her billionaire family, even though he was a fellow muslim. anyhow they planned an escape. she shaved her head and dresses as a man to leave the country....they got through security. when in the plane, the palace had asked for all the planes even to be searched.
    the security found both her and her husband and dragged them to the palace where all the princesses in the house at the time were told to witness what was to happen. so they do not follow in misha'ill's footsteps. the grandad ordered the murder of the husband first. misha'il pleaded that he was a masoom, an innocent. he was beheaded first and then so was she. they have been buried in unmarked graves.

    indonesian maid raped by 46 saudi 'men'

    makkah. police denied yesterday that an indonesian maid who was raped by many people in december is an aids carrier as reported by several newspapers recently, al-watan newspaper reported.

    teenage girl faces beheading in saudi arabia

    dana hughes reports:

    the family of a 19-year-old sri lankan girl is pleading for her life after a saudi arabian court sentenced her to death by beheading.

    the court found rizana nafeek, 19, guilty of murdering a child in her care while working in the country. her family (parents pictured above) has appealed the sentence, and human rights groups are calling for the saudi government to overturn it.

    at 17, rizana nafeek was sent to saudi arabia after the tsunami to work as a maid and make money for her family in sri lanka. but after only a few weeks and no child care training, her employers put her in charge of their 4-month-old baby. the baby died, and nafeek was charged with murder, tried without an attorney and sentenced to death.
    qatif court convicts rape victim
    ebtihal mubarak, arab news

    jeddah, 15 november 2007 — the general court in qatif yesterday doubled the number of lashes for a rape victim as well as jail terms for her assaulters. in its verdict, the court also suspended the victim’s lawyer from defending her.

    the case was referred back to the general court by the appeals court judges last summer after abdul rahman al-lahem, the victim’s lawyer, successfully contested against the initial verdict saying it too lenient for the rapists and unjust for the victim.

    a year-and-a-half ago in the eastern province town of qatif, a seven men gang-raped a 19-year-old girl 14 times. three judges from the qatif general court sentenced the rape victim to 90 lashes for being in the car of an unrelated male at the time of the rape. the sentences for the seven rapists ranged from 10 months to five years in prison.

    the appeals court sentenced the victim to 200 lashes and six months in prison. the seven rapists had their sentences increased to between two and nine years. the verdict came in as a shock to everybody.

    a source at the qatif general court said that the judges had informed the rape victim that the reason behind doubling her punishment was “her attempt to aggravate and influence the judiciary through the media.”

    judge soliman al-muhanna from the qatif court told the lawyer (al-lahem) that the judicial committee had decided to suspend him from the case. they also confiscated his license which is granted to saudi lawyers by the ministry of justice.

    “i explained to them that it was my job to do everything legal in order to serve my client. but they did not listen,” he said.

    to al-lahem’s surprise he received a call from the judicial investigation department of the ministry of justice to inform him of a disciplinary session he should attend on 25th of the hijra month.

    “actually this is the second time they have contacted me. they claim that i advertise my services and that that is against saudi law,” he said.
    may 9, 2006 — surgeons have reattached the penis of a saudi
    man who paid the price for trying to have sex with his
    filipina maid and she attacked him with a knife, a hospital
    source said on monday.

    "this is a sophisticated operation. you are dealing with an
    organ in a difficult area and you want to try to return to
    its efficiency," said a spokesman at riyadh's takhassusi
    hospital.
    earlier this month newspapers reported that the maid
    removed her employer's manhood when he tried to molest her
    in the middle of the night as his wife was sleeping. the
    maid is now in police custody.
