This was hilarious, what men must do when shopping in Saudi Arabia.
The last mix up I have personally involved can have the greatest consequences if someone is not understanding. This is when a man accidentally starts following a Saudi woman who is not his wife or sister or mother or daughter or niece. I have known this to happen particularly when a Saudi man may take family members from out of town such as sisters or nieces out to grocery shop and is not accustomed to following them in a grocery store and has not paid attention to what kind of abaya they may have on. In all innocence he has been walking along and perhaps not paying full attention to his family member and unwittingly finds himself trailing along the wrong cart. Once such a mistake has been discovered it is advised that the man simply walk away from the unknown woman rather than risk speaking to her explaining his error which might cause a bigger disruption.
