Oh yeah Somalis rarely ever go with them. I remember this Caribbean telling me about how in their culture having kids out of wedlock is fine and not being together/married to the woman doesn't really matter. Was a big culture shock tbh but they were Rastafarian they believe in no formal marriage structure which is a big no no for a lot of Somalis. Plus a lot of them have some hate towards their own woman and madowness which is weird asf.We really don’t look that different but to certain people (esp madow), Habesha women all look like baddies while Somali women look homely and plain. I honestly think it’s just cuqdad that we aren’t as accessible to them as Habesha women are.
In Canada, Habesha women date west African and Caribbean madow men a lot (probs because of similar religion). Somali women generally don’t, it’s very rare. They think we are racist because of that.
