Funny Kuwait News Strange

And the plot thickens

Two weeks back Salwa al Mutairi proposed that Kuwaiti men should be allowed to have sex slaves and now she’s calling for a law that would also allow Kuwaiti women to buy good looking men from Muslim countries. According to the article on Arab Times “the men should have ‘slave qualities’ and should be ready for marriage”. The article continues with her saying “she is ready to get married to a young good looking European, even if he is poor.”

Personally I think she’s currently hooked on the tv series Spartacus and now wants her own slave as well. By “slave qualities” I’m also guessing she means they need to have the standard six-pack and ripped upper body that the slaves on Spartacus come with. That’s my theory at least. You can read the full article [Here]

i’m waiting for the people who will come to her defence.

the thing is; the idea of mail-order brides is not uncommon in the world, far from it, its a standard way of living in some Ukrainian communities, I’m not sure if it works both ways (brides and grooms), but that is the jist of it.

Why she feels the need to continuously use the word “slave” shows her over-inflated superiority complex in full light.

I’d shared her news with a Russian friend of mine, and she was appalled by the mentality.

Come on, someone put a gag-order on her already.

It’s a shame you and your Russian friend don’t understand Arabic. I watched her videos on YouTube. Her mentality and logic is riddled with racial superiority and racism in general. I am personally ashamed that such a woman is allowed to speak in public. No, I do support free speech, but giving a lunatic such publicity is wrong in itself and gives a bad image to whatever community she comes from. No publicity is bad publicity on her level.

dude from Ukraine, it made headlines with the protest staged by women bearing their breasts over there; there was even a documentary over it, following a 60 year old man from the US who travelled there. i cannot find the exact link but feel free to search for it urself.

mark you should just ignore this and don’t post crap stuff like this here, there are people with crazy opinions in every country, this is too cheap stuff for your blog…you are just doing it for the hits and page views…

argh!!.. dont be lame dude… its his blog..he can post whatever he feels like.

dont like it? dont read it :p

I love how someone always comments with “you shouldn’t post this” and “you shouldn’t say that”. Believe it or not, it’s a personal blog, meaning we don’t really get a say in it. Yes, there are people who say ridiculous things in every country, but that doesn’t mean we should pretend it never happened.

Omg.. I never comment on blogs; but this one truly blew me away. She crossed, smothered, burnt, shot, strangled, stabbed, and crucified the line. This is tragic; on so many levels.

Only a single woman so desperate for husband would come up with such ideas… oh wait, she is single.

I’ll have you know that she’s single by choice (there is no other explanation as to why such a fine woman would remain unmarried). Don’t you know that she once had a dream that a person of royal lineage will one day propose to her and together they will give birth to a heavenly blessed child who will unite the nations of the earth (and possible middle-earth) and liberate Palestine? True story (her words, not mine). So all you non-royals out there, eat your heart out because you don’t stand a chance.

there’s a change… above write-up mentioned, “she is ready to get married to a young good looking European, even if he is poor.” so, she changed her standard now when choosing a hubby… 😛

I don’t know you are interested and keep posting her crap??? She does not speak for Kuwaitis.. apparently, it seems that she has some kind of mental problems.. she was all over the news and on “taw el lail” two years ago.. no one gives a damn about what she says anymore

go dig for something else dude!

Don’t blame a blogger for posting a follow up. It’s a story and even though I don’t agree with her, it’s given us a good laugh! Lighten up!

Learn to READ. I said I found it funny! I didn’t say it made my day! What’s sad is that you seem to want to be in a bad mood!

If she is a member of parliament then she represent the fraction that voted her in, I still believe the the water balloon concept is more hilarious than this one! The great thing about her is that she is convinced of her initiatives and no one is really opposing her but then who will?

She’s not a member of parliament, she ran and lost. Kind of like saying all the dumb shit Sarah Palin says and does and saying PEOPLE VOTED FOR HER SHE IS THEIR PRESIDENT

Mark dont listen to them i love reading these things from your blog. ive always like your blog because it alert me to new things going on kuwait.

I liked the reported comments in the Kuwait Times article yesterday where she states that the male sex slaves should only be white.
Does she mean caucasian, or painted white like her?!

I like your theory, it makes sense LOL!

I am still shocked that newspapers are publishing and popularizing her ideas – Kuwait has much more talent and respectable figures to talk about!

If your response is meant to catch me off guard and make me think Kuwait has no talent, I’m sorry that won’t work. There are many smart entrepreneurs and artists in Kuwait that are striving to show their talent. I don’t need to name them for you to be convinced.

She claims shes a good muslm and :“She said she is ready to get married to a young good looking European, even if he is poor.

Isnt marring a non muslm harram for a women ???

There are Muslim Europeans, FYI. Albanians and Bosnians, for example. One needn’t be Arab to be Muslim.

Guys, stop ranting… This is his blog and post whatever he thinks is interesting. If you don’t like the post just ignore it.. Jeez

Wait, it says she wants to marry a good looking European? I have a very clear memory of her putting up an “ad” in al watan about her marrying a very “prominent” figure in Kuwait…do her rules also allow her to marry multiple men?

Hmm.. so i think this was her AIM from before. but then she must have thought if she talk bout enslaving Men.. nobody would have showen any interest…

so like trapping a mouse with cheese… she came up with enslaving women first… to make the Men happy.. n now she’s come up with her real agenda.

Imagine if a the govt passed a rule saying Men can keep women as sleves… today she would have been fighting for equality between Men & Women…
lolzzzzzzz….

you know what, this women is completely idiotic.
you want things normal, here is my opinion.
LEGALIZE alcohol.
Legalize night clubs.
Legalize the right for freedom.
get rid of WASTA, and curroption and
things will go smooth.
we dont want no slave ideology, the slave thory and method has ended,now and forever.

X sounds like a real charmer.

Cy, I really don’t think legalizing alcohol and night clubs is going to fix any of Kuwait’s problems.

@D Sure would increase tourism. Without the legalization of liquor in some capacity, there will be no tourism and this country needs tourism to boost the economy which is slumping. UAE and Qatar are more conservative nations than yours and they have legalized liquor. It would put the influential traders out of business, that is why it is not legal. Face Facts!

I’m not against night clubs or alcohol, I just think Kuwait has much bigger problems. Either way, booze and clubbing isn’t going to fix this lady’s sense of entitlement and lack of compassion.

Haha legalize alcohol and things will go smooth? All of Kuwait will be dead from drunk driving the next day

@Cy : Legalise marijuana as well.
While you’re at it, legalize Rohypnol, cocaine, heroine & MDMA.
What about brothels? Would that suit you as well?
Your “opinion” is as well-informed as this “woman’s”

I dont mean to curse at her bs 9j 9j 9j Allah usam7ha shawahat som3at el Kuwait , FoxNews got to interview her for Glenn Beck’s show … Al7een eshlon balah enfahem el foreigners ena she’s mentally ill ??

It doesn’t matter what foreigners think. We don’t have to convince people she’s mentally ill. People who evaluate an entire country’s population based on one lunatic’s statements are retards anyway and their opinion is irrelevant. Glenn Beck himself is a massive retard, so if we were to judge the US based on his example they wouldn’t fare too well either.

If you are so self sufficient and independent of foreign opinions, then chances are you will cease to exist as a country in 1 year if you cant sell your oil on foreign markets…Wake UP!

Chances of that ever happening are quite low. Lady Salwa has strict standards. You have to be either a noble man of royal lineage or a handsome Caucasian slave, and most people are neither. The odds are stacked in your favor if you happen to be a noble white man of royal lineage who was somehow captured and sold into slavery. If that applies to you, well then you’ve won the lottery of life.

Why can’t you all settle down and appreciate this woman for her great vision. It’s a beautiful world that Salwa lives in. A world where men can order concubines over the internet; not just from eastern europe but from everywhere else as well. It’s a world where women too can order handsome husbands…free men, but with user-friendly slave like qualities and well defined abs. A world where magical balloons filled with water and glitter would ascend towards the heavens to eliminate dust storms and transform them into beautiful double rainbows while dust particles condense into chocolate clouds that sprinkle delicious hershy kisses onto the earth. A batshit crazy world, but one in which adulterers, spinsters, and dust storms would be a thing of the past. I don’t know about you, but I’d like a one way ticket to salwa land plz.

Her plan is to legalize men slaves, women slaves, import both and breed them then sell off slave kids for profit

I always thought there is a reason for her white face,dead glazed glarelook into the camera, she looks posessed, am sorry but she got issues, if what the commentors say is true, she is on her way to be an anchor or a mini kuwaiti celeb. Kuwaits own opera hilton in the making. i agree she is odd and strange.

OH MY GOD!

THE HORROR!!

MY EYES!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Drama much?

just ignore her, she should be blocked from all media access, an unstable mind isn’t authorized to give statements.

ROFLMAOL @ comments

I would pay to do that. I want 2…maybe 3. Wouldnt that be grand? I know that I would wake up with and go to bed with a smile every day. Aah, bliss…

@ who ever said .. non-royals eat your heart out..yeah right.. I can see that happening ..(sarcasim intented)A long line of royals and non-royal elligible bachelors lining up out side her house hoping the to be THE ONE!!Shit yyeah why not?? Pigs do fly in fanatasy land.What did the lady say about marrying the perfect one having a child who will be the deliverer of the world and free Palestine and all be well BS??.. man I have seen my share of crazy and Virgin Mary Re-incarnates but this one takes the cake. Talk about Attilla the Hun meets Mother Mary. The picture above reminds me of how close she resemebles an uncanny arab version of Jabba from Star Wars. Hell she would be pefect for the role of his wife had they ever wrote such a character in the script. Some one do her a favour and book her an ambulance to take her down to the Psycological Medicne Hospital in Shuwaikh and dont hold back one the straight jackets. Who knows she may just meet her prince charming there. Lord knows there are alot of illegal aliens from other planets who reside there allready, she may just meet him in the rec room playing cluedo. They can mate have a kid and then she can bite his head off praying mantis style. 🙂

-yawns- I just wonder when people would stop messing around and actually start solving REAL problems already. Seriously, do people have to revolt and argue about stupid shiznit to get stuff done?

From a medical point of view, the woman is obviously a schizophrenic. So we really shouldn’t post about her and help making her more known.

I hope local TV channels and newspapers stop exploiting this obviously sick woman. She’s in need of serious help and I hope a family member of hers gets her the help she needs.

It is not a laughing matter. It is not okay to make fun of a mentally ill person. Before anyone says she brought it upon herself, well she doesn’t know any better.

Use your better judgement people.

Did you use your better judgment when you decided to diagnose someone you don’t know and have never met with a disorder?

You know what the really sad part is? I’m not convinced she’s ill. Her ideas are ridiculous and disgusting, but there’s no reason to believe she has schizophrenia or any mental disorder.

It is so great to know that soon we will be able to go down to the Mall and buy a nice meal, get a coffee and buy a nice man slave (and I hope we get a 2 for 1 offer on man slaves during promotions)

I think you meant to post this story in the other blog post you made, Horrifying Kuwaiti mythical creatures

how could you stop a person from saying something? But I know what you could do. Just don’t listen to her.

Imagine if someone made such staements about Arab men or women as if they were an inferior species that can and should be treated as concubines and slaves, what would the reaction of people here be? This woman needs to be publicly condemned for her views and needs to be denied a platform to spew her racist ramblings. Don’t Arabs and Muslims get enough negative press without a woman like this being reported in the media?

hey Dan, I see your point. However, I disagree with you on this one. I think Ms. Salwa represents herself and herself only. These are her views and not the views of Arabs or Muslims and certainly not the views of Kuwaitis. Evidence to support my claim is the fact that she is being bashed in various blogs from her people whom are Arabs, Muslims and Kuwaitis.

My point is that people like Ms. Salwa exist all over the world and some have even more bizarre ideas as to how to run the wolrd. But we can’t just blame an entire race, or an entire religion or even an entire country for the views of one person.

@ Dan : “Don’t Arabs and Muslims get enough negative press without a woman like this being reported in the media?”

It’s because of the likes of you, that whenever ONE Muslim does something bad, you do not hesitate to associate it with the entire religion.

Does that answer your question….. Dan?

Mr. Pink, I AM a Muslim and I don’t like it when people like Ms. Al-Mutairi make such irresponsible statements that can be used by others to make light of Islam and Muslims. It’s a shame that this happens, but it is a reality. We know it’s just the workings of a very sick person who happens to be a Muslim, but others may be led to wrongly believe it represents the way Muslims view those of other nationalities and faiths. My point is that it is a Muslim’s duty to condemn such views and to set the record straight.

I think some people are way ahead of you for when it comes to condemning her actions. But if you are talking condemnation on an official level, I think that will be a little too hard to do.

SImply put, the Kuwaiti Constitution guarantees her right to her beleifs and to express her views as allowed by the constitution.

According to recent studies up to 3% of the population possesses the psychopath gene, so if you have 100 Face book friends, at least one of them qualifies. The scale reads, serial killers at the top end to ‘ordinary angels’ at the bottom end and somewhere in the middle there are people who may not break the law, but are still extremely damaging to those around them. The frightening part is that when you meet a psycho, you may not realize it, in this case you do.

@Dana – if she IS mentally ill then one of these ‘respectable figures’ Linda mentions maybe needs to take control of the situation and get her(enforced) help?

This lady might well-likely not be so much different then many of us. Its prejudice to call her ‘crazy’ only because of these statements.

She appears to me as a jester, whom by exaggeration, ridicule and taking definitions out of their historical context, tries to get attention for ‘modern slavery’ and other social inequalities in the world.

@fishma
“….she once said she met the prophet (PUH) in the street …..she’s not a jester.She’s certifiably insane”.

A lot of people claim also that they’ve seen Elvis Presley recently walking in the street.

So, I guess, strange things do happen…

It’s clear that she has other- or even bizarre ideas compared to the average person.
The question is: does that make her a dangerous person? Has she implemented her ideas as ‘normal’ (whatever that may be…) among a lot of people?
I don’t think so. Almost everyone considers her as ‘freak’. Maybe she is, I can’t judge cause I don’t know her, am no psychiatrist, never spoke her and don’t understand Arabic too. All I know about her is second hand information from the media.
The same media who embraced her ‘colourfull’ opinions. They understand that readers like to know everything about ‘outsiders’ like her. Over 170 comment only on this site! What does that say about her? And about us?

Trying to take her personal freedom away by stating that she is mentally ill, is very dangerous. You, me or any one else of us with a different opinion might be the next one. Even if our ideas are not that extreme as of Ms. Al Mutairi.

Mark, a favor please. If you run a follow up on this story, dig up another photo of this woman. The current photo creeps me out!

Plz dont talk about her we dont kmw maybe she z crazy noop i think thats for sure she z crazy 🙁
God with her

Hey Mark,please get this woman on Dr. Foz’s show. TRP ratings will hit through the ceiling, maybe even crack it; if it’s made of glass 🙂
I would encourage her to pursue a Ph.D on ‘Of Sex slaves and Concubines – a Kuwaiti perspective’.
To be fair, what she’s saying is only that what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. c’est tout.
On the racism angle, well, we are prepared to condone that. After all, it’s what the system does to you living in Kuwait.
