Gender Issue
Seychelles is a matriarchal society. The women tend to be the ones who run businesses and are also very present in the government. They may dress as they please and are generally very free.
Taboos
There is a dress code in the evenings. Men have to wear long trousers and women are encouraged to dress up (no shorts and/or beach wear).
Women should not be too friendly and open with the men, as this is often misconstrued for sexual interest.
