Because of those prudish little things sheiks have, female police officers can’t pass the scanner to male journalists, and you can imagine friction tending to zero
Women enjoy an unusual privilege in Qatar. I have to deal with the consequences of this sentence because a journalist owes the truth and not the prejudices of travel guides. I can already imagine that Infantino is looking for my phone number to become a FIFA press officer and I wouldn’t be surprised if, after reading this with tears in his eyes, the Emir took us out of the average hotel we’re in and us one of those villas with a swimming pool, jacuzzi, Lamborghini in front of the door and bath full of camel milk.
But believe me, I am not doing this because of the benefits that I will undoubtedly gain after publishing this article and even less because of the camel milk, which must be very sticky and smelly, but out of pure respect for the truth. At the risk of the Ministry of Equality opening an information file for me, I must confess: I recently cursed that I was not a woman in Qatar. He was returning from Al Bayt Stadium, where Mohammed lost his lighter. It was two or three in the morning. Six or seven buses full of bewildered and swearing journalists arrived at the press center. We were, to put it in strictly biological terms, about two hundred men and four or five women.
Because of those prudish little things sheikhs have, female cops can’t pass the scanner to male journalists, and as you can imagine the friction tends to zero and there’s not exactly an urgent carnal desire in our exhausted stares. For example, the line of men quickly took on snake-like dimensions while the few girls present passed the checkpoints in no time. The female police officers sat down and stared at us, yawning but not eroticized at all, so that the clergy could sleep peacefully.
