With the holy month fast approaching, it’s time for a look at this Google graph. It shows internet searches for “sex” in Egypt during the last 12 months (or, if you want to Arabise it, searches for سكس).
Notice the sudden dip at the beginning of September. That was the start of Ramadan last year. But as the month went on, frustrations were clearly building up and at its end searches for “sex” reached their annual peak.

Change the country and you’ll find the same pattern repeated forSaudi Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE.
