Default Covering up in Public

Whats the script with this in Doha?

Ive been in Abu Dhabi/Dubai and know that covering up on the streets is essential but pools,hotels,beaches is fine

What is it like in Doha though?

For instance could i walk down the street wearing a vest? Could i even go to the gym in a vest?

Is there public places where you could sunbathe and do this?

What are they like with Tattoos? Its not offensive or anything is it?

Cheers

I will personally call the police for that offence. We leave that look to the Lebbo's. The Gym is fine though.

As for Tattoo's I have one on my neck, chest, back and to my elbow and no one has said anything/really noticed it.
