Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Realistically there are two reasons you're going there, one is because you have a business obligation or potential contract which incentivizes going there, and two is because you got conned by tourist bait ads that try to hush hush all this stuff because it drives people away.
3rd you need a connection flight
Fourth is you're an influencer and are getting paid to let them shit in your mouth.
Yes, this is a thing that happens. Google "Dubai porta potty"
Google “Dubai porta potty”
You can't make me do that.
Third is you're an influencer and don't want to pay taxes.
What not to do in Qatar:
-come
I think that's covered in "dating" unless you want to do it by yourself.
Sounds kind homoish to me though
Don’t count out the DIY crowd
Addendum -- What not to do: "Visit Qatar."
My gay buddy wants to go to Dubai I'm like bruh they don't drink, arrest gays, and it's a fucking cardboard movie set city. It's omega lame af.
Just go to Vietnam or Thailand instead. Great food, cheap af, and they party.
People play too many games with their lives. If a government is telling me not to go to their country, I interpret that as a threat.
I mean it is in every way a threat. There's a silent "or else" at the end.
Thailand: don't say anything at all about the monarchy
Who, this guy?
Thats a weird-ass Yakuza NPC if I ever saw one.
Alternatively you can also avoid going to countries with no respect for human rights. Act in a way that if everyone else did too it would have an actual impact on the world. Be the change.
Things you can do: slavery
Why would anyone want to visit this shit ass petrol state?
They seem to get all the major sports championships.
2004 Asian Men's Handball Championship - hosted in Qatar.
2004 ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships - hosted in Qatar.
2005 West Asian Games - hosted in Qatar.
1998 Men's World Open Squash Championship.
2002 Women's World Open Squash Championship.
2004 Men's World Open Squash Championship.
FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™.
Qatar Grand Prix (Formula 1).
IAAF World Athletics Championships.
AFC Asian Cup.
Qatar motogp.
WTA Qatar Open (tennis).
Thats because the organizers take bribes from the petrol state
what a sad boring place. don't go and spend your money somewhere else.
No dating? How do they reproduce?
Glorified rape
Two words, arranged marriage.
One word, rape.
Have you seen their population diagram? They import.
(Yes, I know, it's more complex than that.)
Your parents match you, an Imam marries you, then the Emir impregnates the wife.
I wonder if it's meant to contrast to a "chaste courtship" sort of thing. Just a wild guess, though.
Damn, I think I'd break 6-7 of these just by going to the beach.
Damn
Straight to jail.
Cool, an intolerant place i wont ever go.
This place sounds boring as fuck. What a bunch of squares.
What to do: never go to the middle east without an armored battalion backing you up.
I'm not inheritly against different cultures wanting to maintain their values, but I definitely wish people could freely enter and leave their culture.
In the case of Qatar, I can imagine not many women would be interested in staying if it was super easy to switch cultures, but at the same time cultures around the world are beautiful, even if different, and it's a shame that they can't be preserved.
Cultures evolve like anything else. Even language is constantly evolving. Preserving cultures is for museums, not for a growing society. I think that's part of the reason we are in such a shitty place everywhere. 2024 and there's still racist homophobic idiots everywhere trying to preserve the "good ol days"
Top of my list of things to not do is visit Qatar.
I was a drunk gay in Qatar.
That seems dangerous. Why did you do it?
Remember to not behave like you're gay kids!
The coolest of cool guides.
You have to respect people. You don't have to respect ideas.
Passively expressing disinterest in another's ideas is part of the very nature of humanity, and is absolutely not disrespect.
The easiest thing not to do is to not be in Qatar. At all. Ever.
It come from the troll man in reddit, dont be idiots please
Elaborate on which part or parts is actually completely safe to do in Qatar.
