My big question would be, what makes it Arabian bondage, as say, opposed to Greek or Tasmanian or American bondage? Does the person who is doing the binding speak to you in Arabic? Do they perhaps tie you up with shisha cords or hoses? Do they fly you to, maybe, Kuwait before tying you up? Do they have you eat dates and have some tea first, and maybe listen to a small taped concert by Talal Medah?? WHAT MAKES IT ARABIAN?????? I am dying of curiousity!!!

It's taking place at an event that is a *fantasy* adult-oriented event. You can get tied up and spanked by the naughty nurse or you can lounge in the harem room and pretend you have 10 personal concubines to belly dance and feed you peeled grapes. No one who actually attends such an even is going to be under the impression that it's a reflection of reality.

The harem room will probably one of the more tame events going on there.

Worry more about untrained and half-trained dancers performing at restaurants and state fairs and community cultural events. That is where people will really form a bad opinion of the dance.
