I found it damn funny, but Greeks dont have that much humour when it comes to religion...

The funniest is that they were dressed as Catholic nuns, and Greeks are 98-99% Greek Orthodox

And then wrote:In previous years the men have dressed up as St Trinians schoolgirls in Portugal and babies in Cyprus.
Not to say I have any problem with men in dresses (yummmmmmmmm) ( ), but not that lot, thank you very much.
Guess they're trying to give obnoxious American tourists a run for their money.And also wrote:Britons account for about 15 per cent of the 15 million tourists who visit Greece every year and some have gained notoriety for drunken and occasionally violent behaviour.

To be fair, it seems as if no single country is free from, nor has a monopoly upon, exporting it's most irritating and annoying citizens for two weeks in a foreign land once a year.
Some say that foreign travel narrows the mind wonderfully, but for whom?
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

Actually, the Turks were more to blame for the pederasty business - the Greeks historically preferred theirs, erm, full-grown.DeWinter wrote:You'd think a nation that elevated pederasty to an art form would be rather blase about a bit of mild cross-dressing, wouldn't you?
