Dubai say they've detained 40 cross-dressing tourists
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) -- Police in the Gulf tourist hub of Dubai say they've detained 17 foreigners for allegedly displaying homosexual behavior in the city's shopping malls and other public places.
Police spokesman Zuhair Horoun says all the suspects are men who were either visiting or working in Dubai. He says they were detained Wednesday but did not elaborate or give details about their behavior.
But the Dubai-based Gulf News reported Thursday that police detained "40 cross-dressing tourists."

The paper quotes Dubai's police chief as saying the arrests are part of a campaign against "transvestites."
Outward homosexual behavior is banned in the United Arab Emirates. Despite its Western outlook, Dubai is a conservative Muslim city-state and -- like much of the Arab world -- remains largely hostile to homosexuality.

This is not good.
What constitutes outward homosexual behavior?
What if your arm is in a sling and your wrist is hanging limply?

It's funny because in these tightly segregated, by gender, societies there are usually some transgender/homoerotic outlets for young men that are overlooked since the females need to be "pure".

I posted this a few months back-
I know of a three girls personally who was detained for three months in jail for working as an escort in Dubai. Two French and one Italian. The told me of some Malaysian girls who were also detained with them.
If you are Muslim or a citezen, they will arrest you and shave your head.
A lot of girls where going there and working and making a lot of money-but since prostitution and cross dressing are both highly illegal there they are cracking down recently.
