One of the most humorous things that I found out about Saudi Arabia.It seems that Western women are the ones all up in arms about Saudi women not having the privilege to drive. Whereas it is a non-issue with 99% of the Saudi women.
I am sure that your friend was tired and not from too much sex. Having two wives and complete household would be a tremendous emotional and economic strain on most any man.
Recently a friend of mine went and talked to the Imam about taking on a second wife.
The Imam told him, " Why would you want another headache".
I'd hardly put up Saudi Arabia has a place that cares what women think.
Seriously.
Is that the Saudi men are the most hen pecked of all the husbands in the Gulf States.
Saudi wives set the whole household agenda and determine where they will go and who their friends will be among other things.
I find that in these sorts of cultures that once a couple has gone into their senior years..women rule the roost at home. But it takes a very long time for the tables to turn.
I saw a film from Iran that illustrated this very nicely.
