You come on here asking what Americans think of Arabs, then say america only loves sex?

I think Arabs are like everyone else, there are the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Btw, regarding "Arabs" like Saudis, the last time I encountered one went like this:

I was in Egypt, at the airport w/my father in law. He asked for me and my husband to go into the duty free shop so he could buy whiskey for his step daughter. He was busy picking out and paying for 8 bottles of whiskey for her. I was busy watching this Arab man, who my father in law said was a saudi, and he was busy buying the most expensive whiskey he could get his hands on, and a lot of it. I don't know whose passports he had (there is a limit of 4 per passport), but he had about 12 bottles of whiskey.

My father in law says the Saudis come to Egypt to drink booze and enjoy the women, especially those at the tourist areas in the red sea area. Nice....

I agree with the other poster, don't base your opinions of Americans on the illegal porno videos you find in your country......

No, no. While sex certainly does happen in our culture outside of marriage it is not considered the main goal of our culture. Most people will marry and remain faithful to their spouse regardless of their past sexual history prior to marriage. Fidelity is still a virtue. I would think it fair to say, that most americans do not care what their spouse was up to prior to marriage, as long as they are monogamous once married.

Hey, Sdafko. Since obviously you have the internet, hopefully you can do some research on the United States to get a well rounded view. Yes there are bad and corrupt people in America, but most of us actually are good at heart. Most people may not share your views, but that does not make them evil people. The United State is a very divers country. There are arabs, just like you, there are people who follow christianity strictly and do not have sex outside of marriage, there are people who are hindu, buddist, athiest, etc. we are allowed to worship our own way and live our lives how we see fit as long as we are not harming others. I would not dis-like you just because your views are different than mine, I have many friends who are of different religions, have different values, and have different opinions. Friends that are Christian, Muslim, and Jew. Friends that are white, black, arab, hispanic, and oriental. Most Americans have learned to get along and respect each others differents.

I see Egypt is a victim here . Are you talking about sex or Egypt!!!
Everybody on this earth loves sex ... the difference is in the form of relationships in each country.

SEX is the last thing people in Saudi should worry about. How about human rights? Women rights? religion freedom? teaching tolerance rather than hate?

Also, I want to point out to the OP that the United States is a huge nation. It covers anywhere from the Eskimos in Alaska to the Tropical State of Hawaii, from the Mountains of the west to the beaches in Florida, from the large east coast metropolis to the farm communities of the Midwest so you are bound to have some very different cultures and viewpoints, we are not homoginous like Saudi Arabia.
