Pakistani men generally are pretty domestic and easy to control. Pakistani ladies are master of this art. I think european / north american women find it attractive and go for it. Women from Far east also show some interest here and there.
I have never heard any Pakistani man married to an Arab citizen living in Middle east or Gulf. I am not talking about just Oil Rich countries but all arab countries including Syria, Lebnon, Yemen etc.
Oh just came to my mind; there is one. Ghanwa Bhutto w/o (late) Murtaza Bhutto. She is Syrian I guess ( not sure)
Please shed some light why Arab women do not find Pakistani men attractive. Generally 50% are fairly attractive ! Instead they prefer to cling to bedoin tradition of being 2nd, 3rd wife of and an Arab guy and start production facility.

they dont marry pakistani men cuz they are easy to control but cuz they get the respect that unfortunately many goray dont even ever considering giving them.

I second Jinx, I know of quite a few Pakistani guys married to Arab girls and I'm talking even some Khaleeji girls.
But if you really think on it the reasons are socio-economic for the most part. Also, they might not end up getting married but they sure date the hell out of Pakistani/Afghani men.

Majority of Paksitanis living in Gulf are poor and from working class in comparison to the Arabs there, because of this class difference you don't see many Paksitani men married to Arab women in Arab countries.
Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except
So some Arab Ladies are married to Pakistani men. Good These couples you know, Are they living in Arab countries ?
Yes. As I said, I know quite a few couples living in the GCC. Happily married, MashaAllah.

And Hareem is correct, majority of Pakistanis do not get the benefits or wages they would if they were in any Western country so they aren't as well off. Plus, its not exactly possible for expats to ever become citizens in the Middle East. Which is a big reason for Arab women to stay hesitant in commiting or following up a relationship with a South Asian. For example, a guy from the working class in the Middle East will definitely not be able to afford having his family over here while someone from the working class Europe/North America can enjoy various benefits and wage/expenditure parity of some sort; even if he's got absolutely no education or aspiration. Like I said its a very socio-economic situation rather than racial.

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except
So how does these marraiges take place when there are plenty of restrictions in Gulf and Middle east ? I am a little curious. If you dont mind please share. These couple you know, the husband has good relations with his in laws ? Is there any posibilty of gaining citizenship of any gulf country after marrying a full citize
No problem mate. Well, the marriages take place because the two people involved want to be together no matter what. I guess its about how much we're willing to compromise. Although all the men in this case have healthy careers and are financially stable, which ofcourse helps. MashaAllah, they're very happy together and I haven't heard of any issues in their relationships or with the in-laws. Also, not really. You can't exactly get citizenship after marriage. As I said, another barrier to such marriages becoming more commonplace.
i agree with you here
Agreed but only because of the disparity in wages/expenditure. More inter-racial marriages happen in Europe/North America because the economic conditions are favourable to everyone. This is one draw-back for unskilled/semi-skilled workers in the Middle East. They'll never be on par with income in other parts of the world.

Do you know similar couples (Arab girl with Pakistani man) living in arab country after their union as a happily married husband and wife ?
One of my oldest friends has a Pakistani dad and Moroccan mother. And another school friend had a Pakistani dad and a Lebanese mother. A friend of mine just got engaged to a half Bahraini girl. It does happen.
Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except
Arab women don't marry Pakistani men because they believe our blood is yellow. From an early age they are taught that Arabs are the only pure race. The father will slaughter his daughter if he finds out she's marrying a black or south asian person.
It's opposite for us at an early age we are taught to worship arabs.
