Men from the Middle East have been long renowned for their beauty and these 10 most handsome Arab men in the world make it easy to see why.
In 2013 a story of three men being deported from Saudi Arabi made its rounds around the globe in a matter of hours. While people being deported from the Desert Kingdom for a variety of reasons is nothing new, the justification authorities gave for this particular incident was quite interesting. Apparently, their offending quality was their handsomeness. Saudi Arabia’s infamous Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vices AKA religious police were afraid that they will cause women to fall in love with them and thus break Sharia law enforced in the country. Remember that song I’m too Sexy by Right Said Fred? They should add another verse, too sexy for Saudi Arabia.
