Do not be so quick to set aside your cultural compass.

I love Italian fashion, but I buy with my own money that I earn in my hard-working, and respectfully decent and honest job. Unlike her, I am not the queen of a country where lots of people are poor. I shop responsibly because I want to avoid debt, and because I want to have some extra money to donate to the local food bank because in this economic crisis, many are not as fortunate. I do not envy this famous celebrity queen at all, not in a million years.

All I know, and a lot of people have also noticed that she loves the celerity attention she gets, but she makes a sad spectacle of herself in the process. But it is entertaining to watch though. Her visits are a royal reality show. Keep it up! Laugher is good for the health of the public. lol

That was very ignorant of you saying america doesn't have much corruption. Take a lot at iraq, the drug war, wallstreet, etc. Get a clue dude!

Since when do responsible, professional royals shop in the middle of the daily busy schedule of a formal, serious state visit? What kind of royal does that? I have never seen any European Royal behave like this. lol Responsible, sophisticated European Royals, shop but in their private time, not during the schedule of a state visit, particularly since she was in Italy this past summer, not that long ago. lol

A few things that I noticed about Rania: This shopping obsessed Rania is a celebrity, and believe me, real European Royals, do not behave like celebrities. She comes to Europe and we all laugh behind her back, her shopping behaviour obviously shows that she whishes she were a regular, normal European?

Good point Mr Ferdinand. I agree 100% your intelligent comments. I use my own culture and country to compare my life and the privileges of my highly developed democratic country and compare it with the lives of non-democratic monarchies in poorer countries! How else will I be able to compare anything then? After all, I took comparative courses at University; naturally, I compare and critically analyze the cultures, histories, governments of countries.

Every culture has different yardstick for right and wrong , your women wear mini skirt(right to them) but wrong for other cultures. So if you impose on others your idias that will make things difficult.

WHY SHOULD WOMEN COVER HER HEAD ACCORDING TO BIBLE

1st Corinthians 11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

1st Corinthians 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

{SO SHAVE HER HEAD}THATS WHY

The main thing to appreciate is global understanding.

i.e. if someone from a very conservative culture expects women not to be active in society, then that person will never be able to understand the struggles of individuals such as Rosa Parks, or Queen Elizabeth. Because from a cultural perspective, that person will believe that these women should not be active in the first place.

But if this person is able to look beyond their own cultural lense to a point that they can connect on a human-to-human level, then they can directly understand the thought process of another human being. And why Rosa Parks made the decisions, that she did, in her difficult situation.
