No their women are strong and their culture empowers them. Read here about the divorce party for divorced women ( big party where all community will gather to celebrate the divorce) http://www.qu.edu.qa/micyouth/?page_id=589
So what's this news about force feeing young children ? This doesn't sound like empowering women to me. It sounds like an attack on women's physical and emotional health.
It is their culture and we should respect them. I like their government very patriotic and loves their country.
This isn't good culture though if it threatens the mental stability of young girls who have no voice against this. They cannot chose to opt out from such derogatory practice classed as marriage ceremony, my question to you, is this not a form of oppression ? Force feeding young girls is not what I class as culture it's a violation of a child's rights and a method of abuse.
We can not change the world, let us focus on our problems as Somalis first
