[QUOTE]Originally posted by Penny: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Carol_2004: [b] All that you have said makes sense. However, the comment I made initally towards Jane re drinking I still stand by. In Upper Egypt especially everything revolves around respect. The Egyptian definition of respect differs slightly to the western view of what is respectable or respectful and what is not. Here in the UK it is fine for a lady to have a drink or four if she wants as it is in Egypt if you are a visitor. If you are married to a good muslim man it is NOT. It is not about changing who you are but comprimising to make your husbands life easier. You chose to live in his country in order for you to have respect from the locals, his family, his friends and even from him I think it is a relatively small comprimise. Equally if he chose to live in the UK he would have to make comprimises for example not being 2 min from a mosque perhaps.[/b][/QUOTE] Exactly Carol it does all come back to respect and the fact you are living in his country, his society. I would just add that if you do make these small compromises then if the man is anything like my husband you will get back 10 fold what you give up and my husband never forgets or takes any of it for granted. He never ever stops telling me how proud he is of me. Penny [/QB][/QUOTE]
