Saudi men pay to get into women's only malls
From the oh so tolerant Kingdom of Saudi Arabia comes word that men are paying women to say they are their sisters to allow them entree into women's only shopping malls. You’re a young guy with a few hours to waste. The sun is boiling. The tummy is starting to rumble and there in the distance, as if the higher forces had heard your call, is a glistening shopping mall with a food court and female shoppers that would make any mouth water.Read the whole thing. At least the women aren't required to nurse their 'brothers.'
But there is no entry says the guard, single men like you need to be with a female relative to enter these ramparts.
Enter an entrepreneurial young woman. “Wanna be my brother?” she propositions.
50 seconds and 50 Saudi riyals later and you are walking freely into the mall and riding up the shining escalators to the food court with your new ‘sister’.
The practice of single men paying for a temporary, fake sister or mother as a tactic to gain entry to family-only malls in Saudi Arabia is on the rise.

Hmmm! I'd like just the opposite.
Have them convert the Jerusalem Malha Mall to women only, so that I don't have to come along anymore.
Shy Guy, you find shopping with the missus torture?
I don't blame you. Most guys would rather be elsewhere.
Heh
