Its is a ramadan month. All the restaurants are closed at day time. Try to go out at night.

Well he should thank his stars that he was not walking around the industrial area where he would not see any women at all and might have been wondering how all this guys get by

adz you answer is the right one of all as most of them come here without families to work and support them back home. But I feel the ration shaould be 1 : 10 or more.

qatarisun another good answer and also it is not like our own place/country that we have rowdies on the roads, unemployed time passer - they dont exist here.

not only women, nobody walks in the streets in Doha. Especially in the middle of July. There is no reason to walk..

There are 7 guys for every 1 woman in Qatar.

Welcome to the desert.

Don't u know it's IFTAR (breaking the FAST) time in Doha (between 6-7 pm). At this time of the day in Ramadan Muslim women are busy with their Iftars and non muslim women do not prefer to go out of their homes. And who dares to face the scorching heat during day time wandering here and there on the streets.

walking in the middle of the day, when it's hot and you can't drink in the open?

I think I would be better off spending the day in a spa.

Also, it's usually the time when they let Rip Cord loose on the street.

Women are considered an evil distraction to men especially during Ramadan and they are the leading cause of rape. It's better for their men to keep them at home where they can cause less trouble.

- It is too hot outside in the middle of the day to be on the streets unless your job demands so.

-Women are not into jobs which require working in sun like construction or cleaning the streets or watering the green patches.

- Did you walk to old souq at 7pm?
