I am a black african woman that visited Dubai less than a month ago and I never experienced any of this. In all honesty, I was pleasantly surprised because I expected to be with some form of racism or hostility but experienced neither. I highly recommend visiting Dubai, it was a very pleasant experience. I also recommend going in the cooler months because Dubai is in a desert so high temperatures are to be expected.

I had a very attractive friend who went there with her dad who is a doctor, and her mom was a nurse for vacation. She told me that the experience was OK but definitely overrated. One thing that she pointed out was that a group of men approached her and thought she was a prostitute which is crazy!

If you travel to a different culture-- expect different rules & customs. That includes racism. We gotta deal with that EVERYWHERE-- so that's not an exclusively Dubai issue. The entire point of traveling is to experience a different place, different people, different culture. DIFFERENT. If you don't like things that are different from what you are familiar with-- you should probably stay home. Like how you gonna go to Dubai....DUBAI... and complain about the heat? You know it's in a desert right? Come on fam-- you gotta do better.

I agree as a muslim too. I live in the U.K and travelled to Sicily to visit relatives. Omg Italians are so racist. They screamed at me whilst checking my luggage, and the whole entire trip I never saw any other Ethnicity there, and if there was they would walk fast and not look anyone in the eye! I was heartbroken on the way home literally. It put me off travelling in Europe and made me research next time muslim friendly counties I guess. 😢

I spend way to much money in Dubai I made a lot of mistakes but it’s all good. I was just happy to back in Houston Texas. I travel a lot myself but this experience did not change me.I would rather go back home (Congo Central Africa ) because it’s my home and I would be more comfortable than Dubai. Even though Dubai was very safe for me I didn’t have any issues. But Dubai is not like place I would go back anytime soon not even 2 years from now. Thank you for this video I learn a lot today.

[@tsingbabu8841]

@@ShareseNicole it's not uncommon in Dubai for their relentless discrimination towards women through the laws setup. Dubai believe it or not is a mecca for foreign women (potential n IG models). These women are usually paid to come to Dubai to be degraded on by Saudi menand unfortunately many of these women are willing because money talks. This also explains how the Saudi also view western women as general trash. The downside is that many of these women don't think it through. You can't just carry $40k let alone $10k out of the country without revealing the source of income. The cycle is...they get lured, go through a relentless degrading week, get paid, gets stop at custom. Either leaves with no money in hand or arrested. The money gets recycle back and the women leave with nothing. Any women caught sleeping with another individual outside of marriage is punishable by large fine and jail time. In the case where a woman agrees to certain foreplay but ends up getting gang r*pe by the men. She's basically on her own! This applies to western women and other foreign women. As far as your negative experience at the airport with the whole interrogation ordeal. I'm sorry that happened to you ladies. Black people especially black women regardless if you are African or not are seen as the bottom of society by Saudi standards. Many of the helpers (slaves...they do exist) that gets hired to work for a Saudi family is usually imported from Africa. Often times, these women are not being paid, held hostage and work for decades. Their system design that such activities can occur but little can be done because any sense of truth or justice only means retaliation and yet again jail time. I've been to Dubai twice and as long as you steer clear away from the things that takes place and turn a blind eye...you can have plenty of fun. As for women...most women are being used especially if they are there for other than actual tourist travel. I'm Thai but live in California. One of my friends that studied here is from Dubai and his family has two helper. Where they from, I didn't ask but they looked to be African descend. Slavery was abolish in the 60's-70's from outside pressure. However this hasn't stop that practice from continuing.

Even in places like India which is mostly Hindu but you should not show much skin or you will get stares or worse

Plus you state you stayed in the Marriott Marquis most women in there dress in short cut dresses. Also when you said you went to the city you went to is called Deira not old Dubai that’s full of Indians and Pakistanis not Arabs 🤣🤣🤣 plus you could have told them to get away from you and they would run with the fear of police coming to their shop. From watching your video I think you enjoyed it if you didn’t you wouldn’t come back. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO COVER UP THAT IS COMPLETELY NOT TRUE that is very misleading for viewers watching. If you go to a mosque it’s seen as disrespectful not to cover shoulders and knees that’s for both men and women. Also you never come to Dubai between June and September. Again il say it again YOU DO NOT HAVE TO COVER IN THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES (Dubai).

I had friend dress provocatively after I and our mutual friend told her not to and she experienced maltreatment because of it. Black women definitely have to move different in Dubai. When I go I dress high class, so they assume I'm rich and I don't get approached in a weird way, but they definitely make assumptions based on your race.

Hi Sherese, I had the opportunity to visit Dubai, yes, it was a culture shock and unbearable heat was something I never experienced before. I went to Dubai in August and most of the tourist destinations were closed because of the heat. Next time, visit Dubai between the month of Nov-Apr. Now, you know this is a Muslim country and the rules are different. Yes, you are expected to be modest. You were not required to cover up, like wearing a head cover in the malls, but if you go to a mosque or a religious building then you must cover your head. Overall, the locals were pleasant and eager to assist you. I hated the hackling, everyone wanted you to buy something from them. This is a great destination but one must adhere to the laws or you will get in serious trouble. The Arab women were not so friendly, but I enjoyed interacting with the ex-pats from different nations. I will go back and enjoy the sightseeing and food of the local culture.

It's a Muslim country, you have to cover up in mosques only. Nowhere else. People wear anything they want. Dubai is not hot, it's extremely humid. It's a desert after all. In winter weather is mild to cold. There's so much diversity in Dubai and with that comes many cultures with differing behaviours. The area you visited are mainly Asian sales people and they not the most sophisticated people on earth. They stare at all women and in your face kind of sales habits. Emiratis (UAE Nationals) generally keep to themselves in public. The customs guys don't only check blacks as you said yourself your friends that came through at another time did not have the same experience as you. Dubai is very strict on drugs as the US customs are. The last few years has been hectic with drug traffickers oing through their airports. It wasn't personal, I believe so. It was unfortunate that you had a bad experience which you believe was racially motivated, but I can assure you it happens in black countries to bkack women as well.

When my cousin moved to EUA we were all like “what’s wrong with you?” Those cultures have had the same mindset for hundreds even thousands of years… these are the places where a woman gets raped and she’s the one that goes to jail. Many of these places are trafficking hubs. It’s just certain places would NEVER be on my bucket list because it’s too much of a gamble.

I am black, 70% of the Arabs are dark skinned, so people don’t look at you weird for being black, but because you were a tourist and you are too many walking around next to each other and that normally Calls people attention all over the world… I had seen the destination dubai crew and it called my attention several time … it’s 200 people walking next to each other like sheeps being pastored hahaha Every time I go to USA I get to the whooooooooole airport experience you went through each and every time…. Even my shoes had been broken to find drugs in USA 🥺 without excuse, without refund nothing… not even an apology. There is lots going on in Dubai as well as all over the world, not city it’s perfect. But it’s sad how people make a whole perception of the situation and make it into a negative thing and tag the place as THAT!!! Arab culture it’s loud, that’s why I can understand the you sensed aggressively from the sellers in the Gold Souq or Old Dubai ( most of them are from Pakistani and India ( two different Asian countries ) … but if you smile to them, keep on walking and tell them, “No Thanks Habibi I don’t need” they will let you alone …. They are just trying to sell and promote their products they don’t want to harm you. If you even give them attention they will take you to the store, seat you down and the 1st thing they will ask you is, Madame, what would you like to drink? Do you need a coffee, water ? … No bad intention… This kind of selling happens all around the markets all around the world… I had lived in 6 countries and I had travel all over the world I know what I am saying… Dubai it’s hot from May till October - that’s the summer here… if you come in high season that it’s from October till may ( tickets, hotels etc etc are more expensive in that time, that’s why destination dubai it’s affordable… ) the weather it’s perfect. You are always welcome back to Dubai. As you said your experience became negative since you arrive at the airport ( where energy goes, energy flows, you brain got hooked up on finding negatives and not positive, that’s pure psychology and energy ) And by the way the Ferrari Word it’s in Abu Dhabi, that’s a whole another Emirate and it’s the capital of UAE. Dubai it’s extremely Safe, there is endless job opportunities here, it’s a cosmopolitan city, always changing and evolving, advance in technology, entertainment never stops.

(again me, personally not my style) it sounds like you’re making excuses instead of accepting my experience for what it is… just my experience 😂 I don’t get it!

First I must say thank you for sharing your experience & sorry that your experience started out being so negative. May be when you make that trip to go to Ferari World it will be a better experience. I have been to Dubai & Abu Dhabi 3 times & I have never had that experience. We were a small group of 20 with Majestic1 Vacations International. No airport or immigration issues. Our Tour Guide met us outside of the airport terminal where our bus was. On our drive from the airport to the hotel she updated us on cultural norms & what to expect, when & where you need to cover up. It was in the month of October & our tours were also pre planned. Even venturing out to places the mall, Ferrari World, Ski Dubai, Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab Hotel & other locations, we had no issues. The only time we were required to cover up was entering any place of worship. We did the tour of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi where covering up was mandatory. Outside of that , we wore regular clothing, Tee Shirts, Tank Tops, jeans, leggings dresses etc. with no issues. The one thing that stood out for me is the men will almost knock you over to get in that elevator ahead of a woman. So ladies watch out for that . I can't say that they are ill mannered because that's their culture & its what they are used to. I just smiled, kept on moving & enjoyed my trip. Would I return to Dubai ? Absolutely !
