wallahay you read my mind. I can only feel sorry for the girls left behind in that hellhole.To think it was a war that saved me from an abysmally shitty existence. Can you imagine the conflict in that knowledge, and how sobering it is. I'm well aware.
You're a bahal, literally. But I never took you to be PC, so why are you pretending?

Aren't you both self proclaimed "landers"? what is this one second you're a separate country and suddenly it's "somalia"?Lol, are you implying that Somali women before the war and Somali women after the war share the same circumstances? That shows how little you know about your country. Or did your parents not tell you a thing about pre-civil war Somalia?
I can't speak for you, but women in pre-war Somalia had freedoms and rights that current Somali females could only dream of. My own mother and aunts refused marriages left, right and centre. They were allowed, like many girls at the time, to continue education and find a career. The war turned Somalis from a largely secular and loosely religious people into a poorly educated, highly superstitious and conservative people.
Nowadays, Somali girls are considered as nothing more than brood-mares.

2. Don't be fooled by propaganda put out by the those were the day crowd the circumstances in that regard are largely the same.
1. We are a separate country, but obviously before the war obviously the Somali Republic was on country. What has Somali politics got to do with my post?
2. I'm not being fooled by anyone, why would my relatives lie to me about somalia before the war? Especially when pictures and sources actually back up their stories. The Somalis of.today and the ones in the 1950/60/70/80s are two different breeds.
Also, Vixr is from Somaliland?
Listen, I'm not talking out of my ass. My friend had a female judge for a grandmother so I'm aware there were gradations, but those were the advantaged few FACT, not the average Somali woman pre-civil war. It's not just nowadays, it's always been that way. It's culture.Lol, are you implying that Somali women before the war and Somali women after the war share the same circumstances?

That usually happened in the badiyo. The Somali women who were born in the cities, who were educated, they had jobs and a lot more freedom than the women who live in Muqdisho or other Somali cities today. I've never heard of city girls getting married off forcibly. That never happened and if it happened which was rare the dad would be jailed.Listen, I'm not talking out of my ass.

Don't kill me, ReikoI've never heard of city girls getting married off forcibly. That never happened and if it happened which was rare the dad would be jailed.
Don't kill me, Reiko
You don't even see the fallacy in your statements. Accessories. To compare a 30 year warzone to a peaceful Somalia is facile, sis.
I'm serious, I've never heard of Somali women who were born and raised in Muqdisho forced to get married. I don't know where you're hearing these stories. And women did have a lot of freedom, according to my hooyo's photo albmus, the wardrobe, hair, accessories, and university campus... Women in Somalia today can only dream about those days.

You should see the stunning pictures of my own mother, the clothes she was in and her long flowing hair, and manicures. But I'm talking about the culture, not the fashionable clothing some had.
No offense, but what kind of fucked question is that? Of course it increased with warQuestion. Do you think forced marriages and abuse of women was more or less common before the war?

I wasn't implying, but stating that the culture isn't and wasn't kind to women. In times of war, that becomes amplified.Seemed like you were implying something else, my bad

Believe me, the pity goes both way, even the most destitute would think of herself as better then a western Somali woman.
But honestly, how can we interact with our sisters from a place of feeling sorry for them? I used to question some of the hostility they had towards us but I'm starting to understand it
How so
let's just say, I thank god every day for my gaalo country. they can be hostile all they want, but I would never exchange places. it only took me two months in that country to realise, its not a place for a woman
