No kisses in public. - 20110831 A Dubai appeals court upheld a one-month prison sentence for a British couple convicted of kissing in a restaurant. 一对英国男女因在迪拜一家餐厅接吻而被判处一个月的监禁。 The couple were not satisfied with the sentence. They said they only kissed each other on the cheeks. They were not intended to offend against the law in Dubai. Unfortunately, they had to bear the jail time and a fine of 1,000 dirhams each. They would be deported after serving their sentences. This was the case happened in 2010. "Cosmopolitan Dubai has the most relaxed social codes in the conservative Gulf, but authorities enforce strict decency laws and regularly crack down on people accused of pushing the limits, which can include everything from wearing a mini skirt to losing one's temper in traffic."- I got this paragragh from internet. 国际大都会迪拜的社会规范在保守的海湾地区算是最宽松的，但当地有关部门实行的礼仪法规却十分严格，经常对那些被控“出格”的人进行制裁，其中包括穿超短裙、在交通行驶中发脾气等各种行为。 My opinion: The law sounds too strict. I got to know such kind of "strict law" from a movie at first - The lovers were kissing in a restaurant while another customer called the police to disclose their violation. The police arrived and stopped the lovers' "improper" behavior. Body language is helpful to express our feeling. People kiss others to show their love or regard it as etiquette. I am so lucky that I was born in China. Even if Chinese are not open enough, it is ok so far!
