What's with this ''families only'' business? I know I am in Dubai and I must respect it's culture but as a generic human being it is getting irritating. Why is it necessary here to separate and allocate special places for families in restaurants, buses, parks, etc?

Because family life is a big part of the local culture.

^ What bugs me is why they need to separate them and restrict access to non-family people from places designated for them. What is the purpose of that?

I take it you've never been to Jumeirah Beach and seen the stream of single men that walk the beach in obvious non-beach clothing. This alone proves the need for Families Only beaches.
The purpose is to make families feel more comfortable. I am supportive of it myself, although I don't have a family here, I do believe families need the spaces to enjoy as well, without having to worry about the safety, security or comfort.
