Confronted by "Religious Police", the American service women, weren't allowed into the inner part of the Cafe with the tables & chairs, they'd have to stay outside with the Burqa wearing chattels, but us "Men" could go in. needless to say we didn't bother, we left with our sisters in arms.

Many stories from GW1 - the US General at Dahran deliberately put female soldiers on all entry gates into US/Combined areas of the airbase. One muttawa was harassing some Philipino nurses in Khobar Mall with his cane , because they were talking to US squaddies - the squaddies threw him into the water feature and they were cheered by the locals and the expats.
