Thats the dumbest bullshit i have ever read on here. If you havent seen or heard anything fucked up, in or about Dubai, thats because you havent looked.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_Dubai
Homosexuality is illegal. The death penalty is one of the punishments for homosexuality. Kissing in some public places is illegal and can result in deportation.
These are just the first two sentences in the “Dubai Law” section, it just keeps going along similar fucked up lines tho.
Sharing a hotel room with the opposite sex is prohibited under Dubai’s law unless married or closely related. There is to be no display of public affection.
The “Rape victims” subsection in the “womens rights” section is also just a nightmare.
And this doesnt even start talking about slave labour, human trafficing, censorship, political assassinations, etc.
Seriously, i wouldnt go to Dubai if you paid me for it and neither should anyone that values their own safety and general human rights.
As I said, respect the local laws and customs and nothing will happen to you. As proven by about 15 million annual tourists from all over the world.
You obviously don’t have to visit if you disagree with the local customs, but to say that going there has any measurable chances of getting arrested is incorrect.
And regarding the law about sharing a room by a (heterosexual) premarital couple, it has been decriminalized in 2020, and rarely applied to foreigners in the first place.
