I think she might see Alexi as being controlling I mean that would say tons to me about him being upset about a strip club .
Alexi is from Israel, a religious state. It is run by the Jewish religion. It's not a control issue it is a culture issue. Of course he is upset she went to a strip club without even telling him (or that her friends didn't say anything to him about it). Where he is from that kind of thing is NOT ok. Not only that, but it's abundantly clear that the guy has issues with how Loren idolizes physical appearance, it makes him uncomfortable. I feel bad for him, she doesn't seem to really understand where he comes from or what he wants. She treats him like a pretty toy.

There is truth to his being uncomfortable, but although he is from Israel, he is not very religious. I think he is just offended by her going to a strip club and acting out. (If they were religious, they would not be wearing the attire they do ... they are definitely Jewish and I am sure they identify with the religion and culture, and I dont want to be all preachy but he/they are not religious...).

He may not be religious but he was raised in a religious state. His exposure and acceptance of things like male strip clubs is going to be different due to where he grew up. It doesn't have to do with him being religious but his level of exposure to that kind of activity being acceptable. The clubs there aren't like the clubs here either. They are often a cover for the sex industry and even have human trafficking issues. In Israel you're average guy (even if he isn't religious) is not going to look at these kind of establishments with nonchalance. To most it's a hub of criminal activity. That's been his experience and exposure to these kinds of clubs. At a minimum her visiting one warranted a discussion with him beforehand.

That's how I see it. If they were religious they would act like the Mormon and Evangelical couples from this and past seasons and their living conditions pre marriage would not be daddy saying "I don't want to hear it", but rather they would be in separate houses to take away the opportunities.

Again, I'm not saying he is religious. He was raised in a religious state, a government that is run by the Jewish faith. Obviously there will be some major cultural differences between here and there. A quick search shows that they only have strip clubs in Tel Aviv and even then there's articles about how they aren't exactly "clean" businesses. It isn't the same experience there as it is here. Here it is a business. There it's not uncommon for them to be involved in criminal activity. His exposure and view is different because of where he is from, not his religious beliefs.

Give them a little time, it shouldn't take that long but since it's Thanksgiving, they may be busy and not able to check FB to see requests, probably soon imo.
