Yes i agree, i think people should be adaptive to other people's cultures however i feel while in australia we accommodate for people of other cultures (somewhat) in other countries different cultures seem to be considered inherently bad.

That's no excuse for australia to change its ways... but i feel that nothing but bad cricism will come of this.

Its good to learn about other people's cultures so that you understand why they do certain things and so that when you travel abroad you have an idea of the culture of the specific country.
it is good to LEARN... which is something tattoguy needs to do
learn about the cultures and religons and races so you can understand them
instead of hate them
however i dont think that will happen when there is so many closed minded people that just dont want to know

australia is rich in cultural diversity and full of many different cultures...

Just don't complain about our laws, customs (such as christmas or whatever), the fact that we ARE largely a christian nation.... (although pretty secular).

australia is many different cultures and races combined that makes our country
so ofcourse we adapt
its not an arab muslim country that is majority arab muslims
its a multicultural country..therefore we all accept and tolerate eachothers beliefs and stuff
you are living in a country that is all mixed..unlike an arab muslim country that is pretty much 90% arab muslim

im not complaining....i am australian and i dont see that we have a culture....rather we depend on other cultures.....if all the ethnic ppl left australia we'd be pretty screwed....

i have no problem with cultural diversity i think it's great, my complaint is more with other nations that aren't willing to accept other cultures...

They have policies of assimilation that i'm sure we all agree are bad.

no, that's not true. There are separate areas for tourists to visit and wear bikinis. They're just restricted from entering religious sites.

dont arabs commmit terrorism?
dont they commit gang rape?
Dont they stink?
Dont the women where stupid loooking ninja uniforms?
1) Don't stereotype
2) Not all arabs are muslims and not all muslims are arabs
3) Not ALL gang rapes are by arabs
4) I don't think so unless you have smelly problem (that's a bit lame but anyways)
5) Not ALL muslim women wear the burqa and no, they do not look like ninjas unless there is something wrong with your eyesight as well

only 18% of muslims are arabs
but thats besides the point
actually that's relating back to what tatooguy said. He said all arabs commit terrorism which means that the muslims commit terrorism (as shown through media etc.) which then leads to everyone thinking that all muslims are arabs and all arabs are muslim.

they dont accept culture that goes against their religon
like dresiing un appropriately
or drinking and taking drugs
or prostitution and gambling
they are not accepted in muslim countrys
if it wasnt part of western culture then maybe they would be accepted
but muslims in australia..and their culture is not effecting australians

Kulazzi... do u think it SHOULD be release when it WAS a group of muslims that committed a gang rape?

There DOES seem to be a problem with alot of groups of european and arab males.... they ARE commiting gang rapes etc more often than white men and I don't think it's wrong to point that out as there is obviously a problem that needs to be addressed. European (italy, czech), arab men seem to have been brought up in cultures where women are second to men... i know this is a bit of a blanket statement but alot of girls i know from such families find that this is the case in a disproportionate amount compared with white australian families..

Australians in general don't like the idea that a woman should be FORCED to cover up her body.

they might have been? There's alot of arabs/european males in penrith lol
I don't think i'm being unfair... i think it is culturally more common for people of these nationalities to see women as 2nd to men.
