Thank you for enforcing that there are good Egyptian men. Mine is one two and for exactly your reasons that is why he doesn't want a visa to my country for permanent residency. He will visit as a tourist but I found that Egyptians are passionate about their country and this can only be viewed as a positive and commendable attribute.

Even for Republicans in the USA? Is it also a commendable attribute for them?

I too have an honest, intelligent and considerate Egyptian man who I met in Egypt and not over the internet and I knew him for 12 mths before we eventually formed a relationship. Most Egyptians are very honourable people but as with all nationalities a few bad ones spoil it for others.

What spoils it is usually intercultural conflict or some visa/cash scam. By honourable, do you also mean the non-Muslims, like the Coptics?
