Beautiful middle-eastern babe at Cafe Habibi in Westwood, Los Angeles, January 2002.

I almost got in trouble because of this shot. Middle-eastern men do not like to have their women photographed. I was later told by a girl that knows her that this beauty is only 17!

This young lady was a bit nervous I noticed. Perhaps she felt a little bit guilty because the decolté was too revealing. Middle eastern women, especially muslim women, in the West are brought up with moral and social codes of conduct/dress that sometimes conflict with the norm. It is hard to be a middle-eastern woman in a western society...
