I was on the "tourist" island of Penang, Malaysia. I saw many Saudi tourist (my best guess). Full 100% Jet-Black Polyester? Burka in all that sun and heat. Eating ice cream, or even McDonalds. Lift, lick, close flap, repeat.

Man always walking ahead with the kids. Women trail behind like a herd of cattle in those suits. All you could see is the eyes darting around. The one I was with said "do not look at them"......"he will beat them when they get home". I had to look to see the ice cream eating. Those men got it made. Get back to hotel, I'll have that one. Those Beeatch' in full compliance mode. Hmmmmm, let me think. I will have that one tonight. You, do what I say. You others, do the housework.
