You have really covered it all Lina. To all women considering entering into a relationship with an Egyptian man please read our posts as THIS IS WHAT IT IS REALLY LIKE IN EGYPT!

Unfortunately despite this knowledge Western women will still be taken in by these handsome men and be left with broken hearts and seriously deficient bank accounts and also the young and handsome Egyptian men will be used by Western and European sexual predators - male and female and be left emotionally damaged and disallusioned with the morals of the west. I have seen the male predators here in Luxor too Lina. There is actually a "brothel" of sorts near Luxor Temple where for a few Egyptian pounds Western men can have their way with young male Egyptians . Disgusting is all that comes to my mind and for it to be happening near such a spiritual and historical monument is apalling.

I have mentioned in previous posts that there ARE good men in Egypt but they are educated, intelligent and higher up the social ladder. They are not in the front line of tourism and they are not waiters in hotels or serving in bazaars. You have been warned.
