There are two things that irritate me
the first is how some guys think that Somali girls have become more western, over confident, demanding and unprincipled
The second thing is how guys think that any girl who does not wear hijab must be either sleeping around, highly adventerous, easy and or unislamic therefore she would not make a good wife/mother
Concerning the first issue, i would like to state that it is a great tragedy
that some are blaming westernisation and personal weakness ( on the part of somali ladies) for girls these days being more demanding and loud
Culturally speaking Somali women have always been hard working, strong-minded,clever people since the begining of time
Our women are beautiful, physically and mentally strong and charismatic plp and that is why they are too confident.
They have many reason to be.
But that is down to culture, NOT western influences
It may seem to some guys that the somali ladies of today are too confident in a western way, but that is not neccessarily a bad thing and it does not mean they are becoming more western.
What it means is that they are expressing their cultural self independence in the enviroment they were raised in
Thats only natural and logical. Still that same charisma is there and is only being transalted in different ways now due to the fact that our sisters are all around the world, and not in Somalia.
The second thing is that peoplr should never judge others at face value
Just becasue a girl does not wear hijab does not mean you could walk all over her.
Religion, i believe, is a private matter
I have heard of (and seen a few) girls who wear hijab, jilbab and all that and are hookers and users by night
So it is really unwise to make sweeping generalisations about women with no hijab
You never know whats in her heart.
I bet there are plenty of gals out there who dont dress unislamically but dream to be great teachers and mothers.
In conlusion some guys should just stop hating on their sisters and being ashamed of them
It is so ironic because the Somali woman of today are so much better, more hard-working and educated than they were 50 years ago
