The Self-hatred among certain halimos is too much

[Prince of Lasanod]

OK so I checked with my parents. For Daroods and Reer Waqooyis apparently it is seen as a symbol of being subdued or domination. When you want an animal to plough a field and you need to subdue it you would give it a nose ring to put it in pain. They also use it if you want a female camel to feed another calf that is not hers. If her calf were to die and you wanted to feed another you would give it a nose ring.

It is not a good thing at all.

I will tell my wife to get a nose ring now



kidding

Yeah the first thing that comes in my mind when I see a nose ring is a cow.

Lmao Ikr. My parents told me only reer xamars and Madows see it as beautiful.

Other Somalis should have not adopted this trend. It is not a part of our culture.

I have a Q

Why are you guys so racist towards AAs and other blacks but we Somalis get the brunt of the blame for it all the time? Yes Somalis are racist foo but please take your share of the blame. I know some Habesha women who sound like the KKK lol.

This thread topic will answer it further

Yeah, pretty sure I'll get one. I've wanted one the longest. Don't care about obscure Somali grazing and animal husbandry habits or whatever

Yea I do, but bull ring piercings are not my cup of tea.
