The Arab Mind by Raphael Patai, Hatherleigh Press Paperback, 2002. 

The Arabs raise boys and girls in different ways. Boys are pampered and spoiled, girls are not. Girl babies are often ignored when they cry, but not boy babies. An Arab man’s status depends primarily on how well he protects the chastity of the women in his family. The sense of time in the Arab world is much more vague than in the West. The Arab believes that not he but God determines what will happen to him in life. Consequently, he is less likely to engage in long-range planning. Words often substitute for actions.
