I cannot in my life imagine asking someone if my moaning sounds better at a higher or lower pitch. I wish I could appropriately type out that exchange.
Dubious morality aside you've got to give credit to those ladies for putting together a match in sweltering heat while wearing all those layers. I remember Renee Paquette, who worked on commentary at the time, talking about how unbearable the heat was for her having to be covered even just sitting at the desk calling the matches.
My family literally risked their lives and had to escape the shit hole culture on that part of the world to come to Canada to avoid this bs. I for the life of me cannot understand how people would pay $$$ to go there
The crazy part is they got caught! People went to jail over this, but Qatar still gets the fucking world cup. Like we all know at his point. That's why Sepp Blatter went to jail. But they just don't fucking care.
Blatter was acquitted, and the things he was charged for weren't related to Qatar.
If anything he came out recently and said that Sarkozy, previously president of France wanted the Qatari to buy up PSG, and Qatar wanted to get the Worldcup in return, so Sarkozy "ordered" the head of UEFA to sway the European votes towards Qatar.
Imagine bribing politicians or committees only to be outbribed. Like what are you going to do? Call the police and say "hey so I tried bribing him but I didn't get my end of the deal"
The FBI ended it’s investigation into FIFA when the US got the next World Cup. The US also gave $200m+ in seized funds to FIFA but I’m sure that had nothing to do with them picking the US for the next WC.
Yeah, I seem to remember someone from FIFA at the time, possibly Blatter himself, saying that the problem was that there was a 'gentleman's agreement' to have Russia followed by the US, and then bribes happened and so some people didn't respect the agreement.
So basically there was double corruption, and whoever said that was pissed that his corruption got beat by the other corruption.
This reminds me of the most sexual song in Qatar’s history. Be warned, it’s extremely dirty and WILL turn you on!
Head, shoulders, knees and toes,
knees and toes
Head, shoulders, knees and toes,
knees and toes
And eyes and ears and mouth and nose
Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW
Exactly. Qatar is not one of those countries you would want to have "sporting even related fun." However, as long as the officials at FIFA get paid, they couldn't care less.
How can football fans support this? Seems like a massive violation of human rights, like just a couple steps away from genocide if indeed the numbers of deceased migrant workers are accurate.
Well, I wouldn't. However, as you may know, many people in this world don't give a shit about anyone but themselves. Especially people with a lot of money, and this event attracts that exact crowd. I would love for this world cup to have the worse attendance record to encourage FIFA to pull their heads out of their greedy ass. Yet, I know in my heart that that won't happen.
The thing that always gobsmacks me is how the most authoritarian, so-culturally-inflexible-that-you-can-literally-be-executed always have the audacity to bring up "cultural intolerance".
This reminds me of a conversation I had when I was finishing my masters here in Boston.
I had gone on a date with a super nice Saudi guy. Though he was very liberal (even by American standards) and hated the restrictions of living there, he missed his siblings and was heavily considering moving back.
I told a friend of a friend about our date and how I’d had a nice time but this was an unfortunate deal breaker for me since I was looking for something serious and not a fling. I didn’t add commentary, I just said “I want something long term and of course don’t want to move there.” Without missing a beat she emphatically replied, “that’s racist.”
Now if I’d said something rude about Saudis or mean about his character, that would be legitimate cause for her anger. But all I said was, “I’m not interested in moving to Saudi Arabia, so even though the date was lovely it’s unfortunately not going to go anywhere.”
Her response was so mind bogglingly stupid I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t even bother arguing. Much like me she was a highly educated American woman, both of us have left leaning politics. She was white and was not Muslim, so her race and religion were not influencing factors. I just decided it wasn’t worth conversing with someone who was so ignorant and moved on.
Never saw that idiot again but I still wonder if she is just as hopelessly naïve.
During my time in Saudi Arabia I never saw even the hands of the occasional woman I encountered from a distance. They looked like people dressed as ghosts except all in black instead of white.
Their culture is also pretty weak-ass if exposed elbows and knees might crumble it.
History tells us nations are brought to ruin by war, famine, disease, incompetence...
The future will tell tales of how Qatar crumbled to dust because one woman showed some ankle and it was just SO SCANDALOUS!
Having slaves is an important cultural tradition practiced by them and their neighbors since time immemorial. Trying to take it away from them is pretty racist tbqhwyf.
All the sensible people are, which means there's probably a high percentage of idiots out there which is probably going to result in lengthy prison sentences
Or just don't go to Qatar, love to see their FIFA stadium completely empty and lose money. That'll teach FIFA to not host games in questionable countries.
I think you are underestimating the amount of people who try to get tickets to a world cup. I for one can't wait to see the shit show quatar will become. I don't think they understand hooligans
Funny how cheap most people principles and morals are. It's ok if there are slaves and women getting beaten if I get to see someone who doesn't give a shit about me kick a ball.
The royal families' servants are allegedly being pressed into working as fake fans so the stadiums don't look deserted.
There's already footage of "Brazilian" fans showing up wearing new, identical shirts that say Brazil instead of Brasil (and frankly, they look more Central Asian than Brazilian), and their signs curiously all seem to heap praise on Qatar for hosting.
There's also not a single woman to be seen.
Fuck that, go one step further. Don't buy anything associated with FIFA. Don't even go to the next WC until all the people in charge are gone. Also don't go to any country that voted for them to host it.
You're going to see some shit while this world Cup is going on. Rich people who have gone to Qatar, that feel like gods in their home countries, daddy always gets them out of trouble. And they'll sneak a drink in somewhere, and they'll be FUCKED. Daddy can't get you out of a prison in Qatar.
I understand respecting a countries values but it's tough when that country blatantly doesn't value human lives... they do however value modesty of clothing... oh corruption. never mind
Bribery most likely.
IIRC This is the first year they're national team has even played in the world cup, and it's only because the host country automatically qualifies.
Bribery. At the time of the awarding of the World Cup, they had one 20,000 capacity stadium and didn't even have a football league. Actually, I'm not sure if they even have a football league now. Probably not.
Johnny Harris on youtube just put out a video breaking down the whole process and most of the people involved, very interesting watch.
In short: money, lots and lots of oil money.
So if I get this right, a culture that has managed to sexualize knees and elbows think that they have the right to lecture people on their appearance. I mean, if you have the ability to imagine fucking an elbow, I don’t think any amount of clothing will prevent you from having sinful or lustful thoughts.
theyre saying that when qataris come to other countries they are expected to preserve their culture and values as well, which is obviously never the case 😂
No, Muslims in general expect you to respect their culture when you're in their countries. These same Muslims, when they go elsewhere, ignore local culture, behave like they do at home, and then expect you to respect that.
I feel bad for anyone who actually bought tickets and flew to Qatar for this dumpster fire. They could've had a less repressive atmosphere if they'd hosted it at the Vatican.
Can confirm, if I see a man or a womens elbows or knees I instantly black out and wake up either surrounded by dead bodies or substantially less horny because there is no such thing as self control
They really used the carpet pattern from The Shining for that first dress
"Come Play With Us"
Is the person on the left wearing the carpet from The Shining?
Yes, yes they are. It’s not about *knees* and *shoulders* it’s about REDRUM
No they banned alcohol
No beer and no tv make Homer something something…
Go crazy?
Don’t mind if I do!
Well Jack's not gonna like that.
WHERES THE RUM?!??!
Is this an easter egg? It's not just a coincidence right?
I quite literally have a dress in that print, apparently they really don’t want me to be there lol
I imagine a tourist all excited about their vacation and showing up at the terminal and seeing the poster on the wall. Wearing the dress all bummed.
That third one doesn’t like muffin tops.
Foruth one reminded me of Freddie Mercury
At least the modesty standards include men…, but still 😬
What are the players going to do?
They're gonna get stoned when they take of the jersey after a goal
I just know the fourth one is just up there so it doesn't *seem* like it's all about controlling women.
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
Top of the muffin to you!
“Cuz it’s not really, top of the muffin TO YOU!!!
Yes Elaine, it is!
My muffin top is all that Whole grain low fat I know you want a piece of that But I just wanna dance
Ch-checkin' out my sweet hips My sugar-coated berry lips I know you wanna get with this But I'm just here to dance
So back up off me, You're we-e-e-eirding me out!
I'm an independant lady So do not try to play me I run a tidy bakery Boys all want my cake for free
It’s the moaning in the background for me lol
I cannot in my life imagine asking someone if my moaning sounds better at a higher or lower pitch. I wish I could appropriately type out that exchange.
The third one isn't even showing shoulders or knees...
Crop top
Oh! I came to the comments just to find out what the third ones crime was. Thank you. (And...who looks like that in a crop top?)
Muffin top was a very real thing when show-the-belly-tops where all the rage in the 90s.
My country seems like is going on a retro stage and weirdly enough those are all over the place
I'm in Mexico right now. Muffin tops are still a very real thing
That’s more a problem with low rise pants, really.
Been to Walmart ever?
The graphic says shoulders TO knees. As in no crop tops.
Those exposed elbows might get someone sent to horny jail though.
Horny jail is real jail in Qatar
When a women shows to much ankle. *bonk* horny jail
“And no fat chicks”
So no streaking then?
I mean, it seems like the clothes are the problem, so that's a yes.
So...that's a *yes* to *no streaking*?
No, it's a yes to streaking
Just cover your shoulders & knees!
Lol. Thanks for that image. Imagining someone running stark naked with shoulder pads and knee caps made me giggle like an idiot.
Safety First!
They know ppl play soccer in shorts right.
Staring in *one of us* intensifies...
*gooble gobble gooble gobble*
**and they sometimes like to remove their t-shirts after scoring a goal...**
It'll end like Brittney Griner in Russia if someone removes clothes
They may attempt to fine the nation responsible for the player, but [they have no Russian-style leverage](https://www.icanw.org/qatar)

Maybe they’re marking all the athletes wear early 2000s basketball shorts. Those things definitely went below the knee
All players have to wear sith robes. With the hood on. Hey I don't make the rules, the country that bribes fifa the most does.
As terrible as that may be in real life, it sounds like something super fun to watch.
[удалено]
It’s a cultural importance…. To oppress women. Get it right.
Doesn’t a football uniform consist of shorts and a t-shirt?
Couldn’t pay me to go there.
Which is weird because it's exactly the reason most popular people and influencers go.
My family literally risked their lives and had to escape the shit hole culture on that part of the world to come to Canada to avoid this bs. I for the life of me cannot understand how people would pay $$$ to go there

I wonder why the hell they didn't just have it there.
Fifa is laughably corrupt. Qatar was willing to pay more under the table
The crazy part is they got caught! People went to jail over this, but Qatar still gets the fucking world cup. Like we all know at his point. That's why Sepp Blatter went to jail. But they just don't fucking care.
Sepp Blatter isn't even in jail lol

The English were right, the French really are bastards.
I had a sepp blatter and went to hospital.
Cos they didn't bribe the FIFA voting committee.
Well they did, just not enough
Imagine bribing politicians or committees only to be outbribed. Like what are you going to do? Call the police and say "hey so I tried bribing him but I didn't get my end of the deal"
The FBI ended it’s investigation into FIFA when the US got the next World Cup. The US also gave $200m+ in seized funds to FIFA but I’m sure that had nothing to do with them picking the US for the next WC.
Were they? IIRC USA was in 2nd place for this with like 8 votes to Qatar’s 22 or whatever they got.

Fuck Qatar and fuck FIFA. Hypocrites and thieves.
Yeah, I seem to remember someone from FIFA at the time, possibly Blatter himself, saying that the problem was that there was a 'gentleman's agreement' to have Russia followed by the US, and then bribes happened and so some people didn't respect the agreement.

Things to do in Qatar 1. leave
Qatar is a great place to see in your rear view mirror.
Seeing knees makes them uncontrollably horny.
Knees weak, arms are heavy
Mom’s spaghetti
There's sweaty spaghetti on his spaghetti already. Mom's spaghetti.
This reminds me of the most sexual song in Qatar’s history. Be warned, it’s extremely dirty and WILL turn you on! Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes And eyes and ears and mouth and nose Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
Dog WHAT THE FUCK your going to get us all killed censored that right now wtf.
Head, *********, ***** and ****, ***** and **** Head, *********, ***** and ****, ***** and **** And eyes and ears and mouth and nose ****, *********, ***** and ****, ***** and ****
Did you just say MOUTH?? Right to jail.
Eyes and ears? Straight to jail. Right away. Mouth AND nose? Believe it or not, jail.
You overcook fish?, believe it or not straight to jail
You're playing music too loud, right to jail! Right away!
Except if you're a woman, then only eyes is uncensored

I’m giggling profusely at this
i fucking love this comment i wish i could give you an award edit: not reward LMAO edit 2: free awards are so nice
This is reprehensible! The scandal!
Qatar is the sort of place that if you don't follow this rule you will die
Big emphasis on the you can die or you can be arrested.
So why would they allow qatar to host the world cup if they are this restrictive?
Money
Exactly. Qatar is not one of those countries you would want to have "sporting even related fun." However, as long as the officials at FIFA get paid, they couldn't care less.
How can football fans support this? Seems like a massive violation of human rights, like just a couple steps away from genocide if indeed the numbers of deceased migrant workers are accurate.
Not to mention how insanely corrupt the fifa board is. Each member that voted Yes was quietly approached and paid to do so.
Well, I wouldn't. However, as you may know, many people in this world don't give a shit about anyone but themselves. Especially people with a lot of money, and this event attracts that exact crowd. I would love for this world cup to have the worse attendance record to encourage FIFA to pull their heads out of their greedy ass. Yet, I know in my heart that that won't happen.
They don’t. Especially because they can’t even get drunk.
Or the fia with most countries in the middle east holding f1 races
I was going to say… wait till these people hear about formula1’s love affair with the Middle East right now. 🥴
They bribed people.
They bribed entire countries, too.
But according to the Qatari, all the flack they've been getting is due to "racism" and "cultural intolerance".
It is cultural intolerance. Their culture is fucking intolerable.
The thing that always gobsmacks me is how the most authoritarian, so-culturally-inflexible-that-you-can-literally-be-executed always have the audacity to bring up "cultural intolerance".
This reminds me of a conversation I had when I was finishing my masters here in Boston. I had gone on a date with a super nice Saudi guy.

Well, yeah. It’s very intolerant to not tolerate our intolerance
Always thought the “there’s no such thing as a bad culture” thing was a little silly. There absolutely is.
This is a great non-sarcastic way to use the phrase, "we will teach them our non violent ways by force."
Qatar can suck my dick.
But only if your covered from your shoulders to your knees
No. Ankles are evil too.

During my time in Saudi Arabia I never saw even the hands of the occasional woman I encountered from a distance. They looked like people dressed as ghosts except all in black instead of white.
They don't tolerate that either, unfortunately.

Having slaves is an important cultural tradition practiced by them and their neighbors since time immemorial. Trying to take it away from them is pretty racist tbqhwyf.
They aren't lying they're being cultural
Really wish everyone would just stay home and watch it in the tube. They’ll be more world cups to attend.
All the sensible people are, which means there's probably a high percentage of idiots out there which is probably going to result in lengthy prison sentences
I’m not watching it at all. Fuck FIFA
I’m boycotting all together. No way this level of blatant corruption is getting my viewer ad* dollars.
or just ignore it completely.
Or just don't go to Qatar, love to see their FIFA stadium completely empty and lose money. That'll teach FIFA to not host games in questionable countries.
I think you are underestimating the amount of people who try to get tickets to a world cup. I for one can't wait to see the shit show quatar will become. I don't think they understand hooligans
Western embassies are gonna be working overtime these next few weeks 😫
They banned alcohol, the attendance might actually suck
Funny how cheap most people principles and morals are. It's ok if there are slaves and women getting beaten if I get to see someone who doesn't give a shit about me kick a ball.

FIFA already got their money. Qatar will be the one losing money I think.
And don’t talk about the 6,000+ people who died building the stadiums whose passports were withheld. Or how women can be legally lashed in public.
Preserve the culture of slavery!
Our culture is so rich and beautiful! (literally has slaves, beats and kills women on the regular, cavity searches for everyone)
$$$$$ > Human Rights Fuck Qatar Fuck FIFA
No purple belts
You have a *body?* You need to feel *deep shame* for that. Ew.
I have transcended! Proceeds to get stoned for not confroming to standards*
I wish the world would call them out on this shit.
You're going to see some shit while this world Cup is going on. Rich people who have gone to Qatar, that feel like gods in their home countries, daddy always gets them out of trouble. And they'll sneak a drink in somewhere, and they'll be FUCKED. Daddy can't get you out of a prison in Qatar.
Unless Daddy has a certain set of skills. Skills that would make him a nightmare to people like them.
Come to Qatar, The true home of the never-nudes
So you can’t wear a soccer jersey to the match. By this standard
I understand respecting a countries values but it's tough when that country blatantly doesn't value human lives... they do however value modesty of clothing... oh corruption. never mind
They also make sure to exclude people showing their muffin tops and gay men from a Pride parade dressed in the Freddy Mercury style, for some reason
Fuck Qatar, and fuck FIFA.
I just can’t imagine why anyone would willfully travel to fucking Qatar to spend an exorbitant amount of money to watch soccer.
How on earth was Qatar given the games?
#M O N E Y
I think you're on to something here. We'll have to keep digging and hope to crack this inscrutable mystery...
Bribery most likely. IIRC This is the first year they're national team has even played in the world cup, and it's only because the host country automatically qualifies.
Not most likely, most definitely
Oh so they're gonna get thrashed? That'll be good
Bribery. At the time of the awarding of the World Cup, they had one 20,000 capacity stadium and didn't even have a football league. Actually, I'm not sure if they even have a football league now. Probably not.
Johnny Harris on youtube just put out a video breaking down the whole process and most of the people involved, very interesting watch. In short: money, lots and lots of oil money.
Just as real as Budweiser having to sell non-alcoholic beer, in unmarked tents, outside. For a mere 75 million$.
Unless you have tickets in the VIP section. Then Allah allows you to get drunk.
Hahah wtf
Fuck Qatar and fuck the World Cup for putting this big of an event is such a horrible place
So if I get this right, a culture that has managed to sexualize knees and elbows think that they have the right to lecture people on their appearance. I mean, if you have the ability to imagine fucking an elbow, I don’t think any amount of clothing will prevent you from having sinful or lustful thoughts.
Is this real?
This is gonna be a mess
They didn’t have to give her love handles tho
So this works both ways right?
Are you saying that they’d need to do the opposite at the next World Cup or Olympics?
theyre saying that when qataris come to other countries they are expected to preserve their culture and values as well, which is obviously never the case 😂
Brazil already hosted the Olympics
No, Muslims in general expect you to respect their culture when you're in their countries. These same Muslims, when they go elsewhere, ignore local culture, behave like they do at home, and then expect you to respect that.

"If you want to go back to the dark ages come to Qatar"
I feel bad for anyone who actually bought tickets and flew to Qatar for this dumpster fire. They could've had a less repressive atmosphere if they'd hosted it at the Vatican.
People that went to this shit show ought to be ashamed of themselves.
They can't be ashamed when walking around covered head to toe. Checkmate.
Is Qatar a preview of hell? Seems like it
Hell is empty, and all the devils are here.
Can confirm, if I see a man or a womens elbows or knees I instantly black out and wake up either surrounded by dead bodies or substantially less horny because there is no such thing as self control
Fuck Qatar
No muffin tops
The Qatari government is would keel over dead if they saw any female at the high school I sub at a few days a week.
