yeah some people are very OCD with what they feel is proper etiquette. I'm usually pretty good with common sense, but every now and then, it's like, Im gonna do what makes me comfortable..I got asked to take off my cap during a funeral once..And asked to go eat inside or in the backyard but not the front yard...I don't take it personal, it's how they say it or asked me that I might take personal...hah a if you expect proper etiquette you better use proper etiquette tone..haha

Them cultural rules may not apply to you if you are a tourist. Just bust out your tourist card and they'll stop looking and gawking at you. They will say "Dayam Americans) :2funny:
Is Bali in Indonesia? My boy is there right now. I was supposed to be on a trip with him but that stupid rule they gave out last year about banning co habitual this and that got my canceling my trip. He bought his wife so he's legit. As for myself, if they find me with a chick in my room that is not my wife, that's 6 months in jail. If they catch me having sex with her, 1 year in jail.
So many people canceling their reservations and Indonesia depending on their tourism dollars to flourish. They made a mistake and didn't do their calculation right. Well about a few weeks later, they made a revision to the rule. It only applies to their local folks. Tourist, they will not even ask you for your marriage license. Bali, although it is nearby, it is a Hindu nation. This stupid rule is a Muslim rule. It just the thought that there will be spies trying to look into your room to see if you having sex out of wedlock to jail you just doesn't fly with me. I last texted my friend on the first day he flown in. After that, no text or call from him. I hope he's ok.
