I have heard that over in the middle east women can not go anywhere without a male escort, a escort can be considered a male baby. In my story a woman must be escorted by one to two eunuch marines fully armed armored. This is done to protect the woman from anyone that may attack the woman. Eunuch guards are never allowed to leave the woman unguarded. If the woman has gone to use the restroom, or to bed the guards must wait outside, sleeping in shifts outside the door. Any thoughts, firmbeilever?

I cannot confirm what happens in all Middle Eastern countries,but I guess you are right that it is practiced in Saudi Arabia.

In Islam,"Mahrems" are blood relatives or those whom we cannot marry like our fathers, grandfathers, brothers, sons, mother and fathers brothers (uncles) and nephews.
A woman is advised to be accompanied by one of them,especially during long journeys for protection as well as help.Among these people women are allowed to remove the hijab(the outer covering).

Following the chain of command a eunuch is a is NCO (Non commissioned Officer) answers to the brother, father or husband of woman being guarded which in most all cases is a commissioned officer.
