Somali woman fears racist backlash from Lebanese society for marrying a leb man

[Yami]

I’ve lived in at least 3 Arab countries and travelled to well over 7 Arab nations.

Im a whole lot more well travelled than many many on here and have lived outside the West and yes I believe many on here are susceptible to crazy generalizations. I know Islaamo who’ve been married to Khaleeji men even longer than your own parents have been married.

You’re numb to the racism then. Its so normalized to you that it doesn’t even register as racism.

I live in an area of my town with almost 20% Arabs and the vast majority of them being shami. Wallahi they are extreme racists.

Girls will tell their black men prospects including Somalis btw for the macrobians reading this, that they can’t bring a black man home so we gotta stay a secret This is extremely common

Almost all the times I’ve been called a n_gger was by these people too. A word invented by white people but I never heard it once out of their mouths towards me. That stays enough

It’s only a minority stop generalizing

 

[Yami]

but I was told mixed children adapt the mother's culture since they are the primary care takers

My niece speaks more Arabi then she does Af Soomaali it’s pure cope by those shishiye minded xalimos when they say this shit. It doesn’t matter what gender the parents is it’s what culture is more dominant & if you’re so self hating that you’d rather marry into one of the most racist demographics on the planet then your own then you likely don’t have much culture to pass on.

Nothin to do with ”naive”. The guy want passport , the girls want lightskin kids. Match made in heaven.

IR only makes sense if ur a white women or a black liberal person marrying a western people who tend to be quite accepting if you are like them in terms of beliefs and behaviour.

100% the guys who move back home tend to be losers in most case, never seen a succesful immigrant kid move back home just the bums.

That contradict itself tho? How can u belief system that promotrs bein exclusive but then practise inclusivety bc of your culture??? I just think Somalis just like all black people are very welcoming to lighter shaded people, this is a thing in all cultures tbh.

Majority of Somali people don’t have inferiority complex,we are neutral to all ajnabis

La xawla,so Somali men are treated as side pieces as well

Maybe you're right. What I meant is that our community has an open door policy. Just about anyone is welcome. If you frequent a Somali mosque, on occassions, you'll see non Somali imams/shaikh giving lecture. You'll never see a Somali or anyone else being allowed to do that in an Asian or Arab mosque, with the except of white imams because arabs and asians put cadaans on pedestal. Secondly, you'll see Somalis shopping at Arab/Asian stores/restaurants, but you won't see the reverse. You might be right about the claim of Africans in general being more welcoming. I wager it's because Africans suffer from a disease I call "having no pride".

Ye that’s quite true its very easy for ajnabis too be apart of the Somali community.

fhk outa here. Modern day Somalis have severe inferioty complex thats why the country is a playground for foreigners, it’s why they worship turks. It’s why they bleach eachother like there’s no tomorow.

modern day Somalis have no pride it’s fake, their ancestors did but this generation are cosplayer.

I’m not surrounded by Shamis and I couldn’t care less about them. As for Shamis not being able to bring home a Somali or black guy, so? Can a lot of Somali men bring home a Shami girl? If my brothers bought home one of them it would be awks as hell.

Let’s stop playing victim.

I had to expose that to deliver the point home. Most of these people hate our black asses & it’s time for some niggas here to accept that.

Only Arab I’d ever consider as marriage prospect is Sudanease & Upper Egyptians. The rest are different degrees of moshup

Your nieces mother is Arab. Kids spend more time with their mother. People spend more time with their mums side of the family. Why wouldn’t she mostly be speaking Arabic? Are we going to deny basic reality that mothers are the ones mostly raising kids so that we can cry about Arab dominance?

lebanese and palestinians are known racists in north america. gulf arabs are better to deal with (except kuwaitis they have a racist reputation).

We have really fallen down,what happened to our pride and dignity.

There is nothing racist about Arab families not wanting their daughters to bring home men from other races like Black men.

Many Somali fathers also don’t want Arab or any other non Somali men for their daughters. I have a cousin who was threatened with banishment from the family for wanting to marry a Syrian and she dumped the guy.

You need to return the same energy,when I used to live in South Africa where there is a significant Lebanese population mostly Shia and Maronite Christian we used to treat them horribly calling them Shia lambs they used to fear us.

Facts lol she’s in denial. But to be fair a lot of younger gen leb chicks where I’m at date Somalis.. tell me why my ex coworker tried hooking me up with her friends ex bf. She really thought I’d accept ajnabj leftovers smh

 

[Angelina]

I agree with @Angelina

A lot of Somalis really don’t understand the Middle East and hyperventilate over every little thing. This reddit post is an example of a Somali that has heard way too much inaccurate info about the Middle East and is spiralling with some fictional dillemma.

Racism is a problem there but your passport or employment takes precedence. An Arab cares more about a Somali engineer than their unemployed cousin, that’s the harsh reality.

If he’s of astounding character & was only denied because of his race that is 100% racist and that applies to every ethnic group. Thinking like this just enables further forms of discrimination like what Somalis do to Gaboye.

Leb Christians have been surprisingly chill with me. Can’t think of any racist experience from them & I have a lot of neighbors who are Maronite so that says a lot lol.

It’s exclusively been Sunnis for some reason. Even the Shias never did much
