Do you know how all of this can be stopped? Somalis and the Somali government have to trademark our stuff and create an industry out of it. This also includes teaching the history.
 
Oromos have more variety with cultural clothes than us what’s up with the diracs bruh 😭😭😭😭

Tbh its not really variety. You will notice all their cultural clothes is regional and each regions cultural clothes are exactly the same as their ethnic neighbours.

So those who border Somalis wear Somali cultural clothing, the ones who borders amhara wear similiar clothes as them, Sidama, Welayta, Agaw, etc. Look it up.

It doesn't even suit these people, walahi. With those Yemenis they look washed out etc, the East African Bantu girls are drowned out, they are petite.

Every ethnic group made clothes that suited them but they want to copy and paste.

I feel the same about Somali men in Khaleeji attire, they look silly to me.
 

OPIUM KHAT

somalia/somalis should copy-right it (the alinidi print,diracs,baatis) also we should market it as SOMALI like making museums about somali cultural clothes for both men and women etc..

This right here. We need to start collecting evidence and finding ways to get our clothes trademarked by the government. It's disgusting at this point, seeing all this cultural theft.
