Maybe its more in arabic countries.

I knew that from different sources and its also in the Wikipedia
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot#In_culture) . I just today asked a
turkish friend and she also said that this can be an issue. My guess is
that modern and young developers care less about those issues. As I said
I think it is worth evaluating - and what I say was based on what I
already knew. I dont actually know how each  country is different.
