Cairo's Cocaine Culture

July 26, 2010

Cocaine dates far back, but Cairo's rich seems to be taking it to a new level. As usual, our society likes to take things to extremes, remember the ecstacy phase?

Girls and guy line up at the bathrooms to snort lines in clubs in Cairo like its in 1975 and we're in Studio 54! For Omar Rateb to have to break the locks on Andrea's bathroom doors, there must be a problem! 

People don't realize that they become addicted, they don't realize that it shows. You think all that partying and coke doesn't show on your face or under your eyes? That people can't tell when you're high at a party? If so, you must be on drugs...oh wait, you are. 

Its such an expensive drug that's become way to accessible in Cairo and "normal" in the eyes of the wealthy. 

What's next...heroin?

With sahel season intact we are just sick of seeing this excessive cocaine culture, it was and will never be considered cool.

**We recieved a few emails from our readers about this subject and they're feelings on it. One loyal reader pointed us towards these two websites for those that may be too scared to admit they might have a problem:

Narcotics Anomymous Egypt:http://naegypt.org/

Alcoholics Anonymous Egypt: http://aaegypt.org/

We hope these are helpful and that people realize that it isn't a joke and not a "trend".

S&H Question

July 26, 2010

Since we're in the swimsuit season, we got to talking about bodies and how every culture values different body types and of course, every individual likes different things. Some guys like their girls thin, others want some meat. Some girls like hairy men, others don't. 

So we pose this question...physically, what do you guys/girls look for in the opposite sex? (Or same sex if that's your thing).
