Banking Bonking
Can it possibly be true - "...One banker told Here Is The City: 'Dubai usually operates a 'don't ask, don't tell policy' on this kind of thing, and it (sex outside of marriage) goes on all the time over there among foreigners"

Er....yep, I was absolutely celibate during my 3.5 years in Dubai.
Yep, that's right.
All of us young single expats would have made the pope proud.

It ain't news, the story's already stale. The reason this got escalated was that one of the participants created a fuss...virtually every "story" of foreigners falling foul of the local laws is because of a lack of discretion. If sex outside marriage really wasn't allowed there'd be a damned sight fewer bars in certain areas.
And as for our old mate Ethos making his pope proud...

One banker told Here Is The City: 'Dubai usually operates a 'don't ask, don't tell policy' on this kind of thing, and it (sex outside of marriage) goes on all the time over there among foreigners. In this case, the police were called to an incident, and the authorities clearly thought they had no alternative but to act. Mr Carroll and the two young ladies were just incredibly unlucky'
Not unlucky, just stupid. Everyone knows that sex outside marraige is illegal but also that the authorities aren't bothered if they can't see it, hear or have it brought to their attention. If they hadn't called the police (and frankly had used their brains at any point) they wouldn't be in this mess now.
The law is ridiculous, but they are idiots in this case.
By the way, I fully believe that Ethos was celibate whilst in Dubai. Unless he paid for it.
