Would the men of Luxor be aware of that and would it frighten them off or would they think that if you were from Cairo then you are fair game anyway?

not to offend anyone but to grossly stereotype...shubra is also a poor area of town. so if a smooth talking guy with an expensive mobile and stories about traveling the world, educated in private schools, he thinks like a westerner not like typical egyptian, he "understands" your culture, etc...strolls up to you in sharm and mentions his family is from cairo...then shubra in particular...warning bells!
