Three men were forcibly removed from an annual culture festival in Saudi Arabia and subsequently sent back to the UAE after it was deemed that women could find them irresistible.
The delegates from the UAE were in attendance at the Jenadrivah Heritage & Culture Festival in Riyadh, the Saudi capital when religious police officers stormed the stand and evicted the men because “they are too handsome,” according to the Arabic language newspaper, Elaph.
“A festival official said the three Emiratis were taken out on the grounds they are too handsome and that the Commission [for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vices] members feared female visitors could fall for them,” Elaph reported.
Saudi Arabia is a deeply religious and conservative society which forbids women from interacting with unrelated males.
Following the incident, Elaph said the festival’s management took swift action to deport the trio back to Abu Dhabi, capital of the Emirates.
The UAE released an official statement indicating that the religious police were anxious over the unexpected presence of an unnamed female artist in the pavilion.

.....And we are friends of this country in question?
I guess I’d never plan to visit...if a couple of Emerites men were deported for being too much competition for the locals, I’d probably be shot on site.
(Kidding)
Maybe they should just put them in burqas.
Wow. The Saudis could only find three, and they were all foreigners.
Was Elaph’s aunt in the room?
This has happened to me in several countries.
Thanks goodness that the liberals and Main Stream Media, but I repeat myself, have conditioned American women not to like men!
Hey! I’m no reactionary feminist or anything... but why can’t we instate ‘THE RULE’ here? I want pics!
Equal rights!

TTIUWP. I think.
I have the same problem everywhere I go, People wanting me to leave because I am too handsome.
At first I thought it could be my flatulence, but now I am certain it is because of my good looks.
Why not just throw a bag over them? That’s what they do with their women who pose such a hazard.
Happens to me ALL the time.
This has happened to me. I’ve been banned from nightclubs because the other guys thought that competing would be impossible.
You have discovered the ultimate downfall of the Worldwide Muslim Caliphate. Look at any picture of marrying age Muslim “men”, and you will see a load of the most scruffy, wasted, useless human debris possible. Of course they’re worried about good looking guys. With polygamy allowed in their culture, a few passable creatures use up all the desirable women. This leaves the scruffy remaining men with nothing but gays, goats, and their after death virgins.
