what to wear in eygpt and turkey
Discussion
I am trying to plan my holiday for September and I really want to go to turkey or Egypt and I have been to turkey before and I want to do a lot of diving so I am thinking Egypt. I was explaining to the other half that if we go most the time she will have to cover it her chest/ shoulders and tops of legs out of respect of there religion and the fact that I will seriously loose my rag if she starts getting groped or touched up by the locals. I don't want to be in the position where I have a row with her or a problem with me loosing it with a local really because of her dress! now she keeps telling me I’m being stupid and she will wear that stuff and she s adamant she won't have a problem as her mate went and didn't have a problem but I am thinking she is being rather stupid and asking for trouble?
is it me being overly worried or her being silly?

i am sure its fine on resorts and on the beaches but i was thinking if we vists toens and vilages and pyrimds and stuff she will need to cover up?
the main reason i want to go to eygpt rather than turkey is for the diving and to see all the normal eygpt sights and i don't want to be worried a bout what she is wearing.

A resort I've stayed at near Sharm wouldn't serve anybody who wasn't "properly" dressed - i.e no bikini tops in the restaurants - a t-shirt or similar must be worn. No football shirts or "offensive" t-shirts either for blokes.
Been to the Maldives & they used to give women a warning for going topless - 2 warnings & they asked you to leave! Although to be fair there were a lot of ugly women there so it might not just have been a religion thing.
p.s your missus will get harassed if you go to Naama Bay at night. It's a s
thole though so just dont bother.
