  • This is all extremely sad and depressing, but it's heartwarming seeing these actual people face such situations with grace and humour.

    • its not depressing for me its refreshing. So many people in the west are disgusting having sex with so many people like dogs. With Muslims we still value chastity

    • @@samaa3490 you need to ask why?? people are deprived of their basic freedoms because of an imaginary friend up in the sky

    • @@LorenzoPrimiterra so what? Just because your trash culture has a bunch of homofembois doesn't mean we want it too

  • Hey everyone! This episode got really deep in the end, so I'm really curious what you think about it. Let me know in the comments below! Can you relate?

    • I would say that in Lebanon, specially Beirut in the night clubs or gemaize the things you see are a bunch of nonsense, I worked as a bouncer. And I can tell you that I'm never going back to that street in my life after 8pm, I straight up cannot believe how disgusting it was. It was worse then the biggest orgyyouhaveeverseenontheinternet. I never understood what was the "fun" part of going to such things and now I'm disgusted by them😂
      Nothing beats having a drink at home for me.

    • Thanks for the video and to bring deep conversation without editing. The last subject was well analysed

    • @@antoniohagopian213 7ach ta3melle.. what have you seen buddy? We live in that area daily and listening to you feels like it's the devil's den there.. It's nothing like that

  • As a Liberian living in the United States, both Liberian and American society we do show our affection for our partner in public, and when it comes to relationships we can date who ever we choose to be with regardless of the other person background and religion. So at the end of the day you have to live YOUR LIFE how you want to live YOUR LIFE.

  • Interesting conversations, i loved this video...I would like to see this kind of video about Caucasian countries..

  • Great video! It's nice to hear the perspective of arabs that actually have lived and been brought up in those countries. Very valuable!

  • I think this is one of the best discussions I’ve seen here! What’s interesting is, as an American woman I can relate to a lot of the issues surrounding sex because I also grew up in a conservative area (although from Christian influence). Very similar kinds of shame, trauma, and sexism unfortunately, and it can be so confusing to navigate as a kid. Of course, there’s a lot of differences too but overall I could definitely relate to the people here. I hope we can all start supporting healthier attitudes for sex and love, it’ll make our future and our future generations experiences such a better one❤

    • No thanks the only thing we love is our conservative values. We don't sexual perverts in our country.

    • You can't compare your life with Arabs ,they are BEYOND conservative,you have no idea ,trust me
