Ibti, I cant watch the link. I'm at work Who is promoting promoscuity? :eek: If it is Gaalada, then those people are unbeleivably loose due to lack of morals and self-control.So we wont bother. If it is Moslims, then we shall urge them to repent and pray for them. No Judgements.

Morning girls. Ibti and Ms DD do you workout at a gym? Sheesh, looks like you're training her for a marathon or something and you have the guts to laught at her too? Bad Ibti, Bad

Some people are Happiest/Complete,if they get a partner. Others are happy being spinisters. It is all in the individual. If I didnt know better I would think the above comment innocent but it is full of accusations :rolleyes: . Spinisters, eh? If she wasnt freaked out before, she most definetly now is. Look what you've done now?

When I hear names like "Luul" and "Sulekha", I picture these beatiful, beautiful women that you can't take your eyes off them as if they had just stepped out of the pages of VS catalogue! Me too. I have met A Sulekha(whom I heard so much about) and lets just say the name didnt match @ joining the gossip wagon.

That's because I'm a man, and I'm suppose to dish and your suppose to take. We have difference purposes in life. Gosh, how old r u, 5? You remind me of little bro whom when defeated or caught used to scream " I'm a boy. You're a girl" . Love him to bitz.

Definetly disclose all info. when it is about to get serious. Honesty is the best policy, no need to look like a fool later on. If he runs then there plenty of fish in the sea, if he stays then you scored . Not too long ago, I was listening to Muxaadaro and I heard that(can't remember the sheikh's name)if the suitor is Really serious about a certain halima, with her muhram in the room, He can inspect the goods( hair, face, body-build, shape) :eek: :rolleyes: .

Hmm.. And what are YOU doing here?

No, Sir. Lets talk about the disturbing, skinny trend of Farahs and the bulging bellies of the older models :eek: Leave haweenka alone, will ya :rolleyes:

Morning Ladies, Strange thing, I went to bed last-night watching a documentary about obesity and I woke up feeling FAT . I was never susceptable to this kind of crap, but today I feel it :confused: . M DD and Ibti where are you two always heading to? You make me jelous with all the after work plans and looong walks you two take. Seems so :cool:

san ku neefle ma ogoli cidna iga ma sareeynkarto Nin isegay manadgalo nin isugay,na maba, jirro You dont MESS with Maryooley. Reminds me of when I was a kid in school. Nobody tried on the skinny, Somali kid. Being Bullied is not in their vocabulary. They won't stop untill they get you Ninka nabarka soo sidda gacantiisa kama sugoo Dabeeshaan la socdaa Dont we all? We shoot and then ask questions later sida dunida qaarkeed sanduleeynta ma ogoli nina kabaha uma siddo ninka igga sadroonoo siintaada magaca leh ogoow kaama sugayee hana orran sasabo badaw, dareen seexdo ma lihi somali baan ahay Loool I'm proud Amen to that! Aint no-one crazy enough to enslave Somalis. They'll burn your house while you're in it.

The DA VINCI CODE and ANGELS AND DEMONS by Don Brown, very interesting, Very entertaining. I couldnt put them down. I'm a book collector. I have read tons. I will post a list of Awosome books later.

Thanks, Sheh. I was begining to miss you a bit. How is the workout goin?

I always think women who marry more than once are gangsters with strong will and determination. I have a cousin whose been married 7times!!! If it was not xaram waan uu suujudi laaha, she is no nonesense at all. Loooool. Me too. My mom's best friend(who has a son who is a year younger than me) has been married 5 times so far . She is a foxy little lady, very determined, very high-maintanance and will not take B.S from nobody. You know what is even more interesting, EVERYTIME, she gets the whole shabang, like a wedding, new furniture, the honeymoon and everything . So all the middle-aged and older ladies in the neighborhood OFCOURSE hate her guts and are constantly gossiping about her "shamelessness." But I tell her all the time, "Habo you're living it up!"

Morning Ladies. I'm absolutely overjoyed that it is Friday

you right...you wana have all the somali families to settle certain area so many Somali speaking teachers can be hired. Sadly, I teach at a Suburban school where out of 1.800 students, only 60 are Somali

1) Mohammed is 30years old, he can only understand Somali, but cannot reply back. He speaks Arabic and French, as well as English. Two degrees, a masters and affiliated with many associations, he is a high flyer in his field, a practicing Muslim and looks after his family. He makes friends with those he runs into in his daily life, does not mix with Somalis and usual hang out spots. His only contribution to anything Somali, is when someone is his family is doing a collection or his monthly contributions to Islamic relief. He married two years ago and no children yet, his wife works and they are registered as married. 2) Abdi, is also 30years old, he speaks perfect Somali and English, he can recite poems, knows all the clannish stereotypes and biases, he knows Somali history according to his clans interpretation, he went to malcaamad, and knows the 31st chapter of the Quran. He is a resident figure at all Somali events, he chews qaad occasionally, smokes and has tons of Somali friends and no other friends, he contributes to Somalia/ SL via his clan/ family. He has an Okay job for the last 4years without promotion, and is comfortable. He dropped out of uni, because he thinks he will go back to Somalia and open a business. He married a college drop out 4years ago and they have 2kids and one on the way. His wife is registered as separate and is on the dole, this does not bother him at all. Loooooool Ibti. The two are not mutually exclusive, dee. The first Abdi can learn Somali, participate in community affairs and try to be a role model for his peepz. And the second one is SOO STEREOTYPICAL. I dont know how to respond to him . Waa ku sidee. We dont have to pick one or the other. Waxyaalahaas waad ka roonan jirtay, Ina abti.

The last one is very important. I have heard so many times Somalis say “I don’t like this area or that area, because there are too many Somalis there” :mad: Oh my God I have a personal beef with ppl who say things like " Somaalidaa meesha dagto" iyo " I dont want to live there because I dont want Soomalida inay iga haleeyaan my kids :confused: ." And you know what is funny, the kids are busing to this neighborhood because they want to be near the Somali Community Centers/mosques/gyms , like one middle-schooler said to me "their own kind." I have relatives who live outside of Minneapolis which is to them "the gheto" or "somali area" in fear of other Somali kids "corrupting their kids" and their kids are looking more and more "Americans" by the day in terms of dress, behavior and attitudes. And I'm like "So you rather have some Gaalo kids hunging arround your kids than Somali? And what is this "Shockingly infectious bad behavior they'll catch from the Somalis that they wont learn from Gaalo? Seriously :rolleyes: . They disgust me.

"We're talking about people who have not had any experience with Western civilization," he explained. "They don't know the language. Things like running water are a miracle to some of these folks… :eek: :eek: is here serious? What kind-of-Red-Neck-In your-face-RACISM is this? And who is this bloody "journalist"? Seems like he wrote down a list of racially motivated, pretty ignorant questions and found the nearest racist pig in town and had a field day :rolleyes: . The "demanding and rudeness" I can imagine but come on "they wouldnt talk to female sales person"? Outright lie, I'd say.

Darn you all hard-core females: . The girl is JUST VENTING, darn! :rolleyes: . If you cant make du'aa for her, then plz dont make her more depressed with your comments. I get the sisterly tough-love advices but read my cyber lips... NOW IS NOT THE TIME Amna(what a beautiful name) you're in my prayers, LOVE.

is the baby part off putting, settle down now .

They admitted to feeling, at times, “frumpy” and “old” in the headscarf and modest clothing. They felt ignored, unattractive and undesirable in the eyes of Muslim and non-Muslim men alike. They felt that Muslim men often placed them on a “purity pedestal” and non-Muslim men simply looked passed them. I think she is a little frustrated with the lack of "Male Attention" that she used to enjoy before Islam as in "hi there sexy ." I can see how it might be difficult for them to cope with the idea of not hearing "Damn you're sooo fine or bring that fine *** over here! :eek: " from noisy bystandards. Loooool. All jokes aside though, I dont know what she is asking. I mean she said brothers put them on a "purity Pedestal".. which is what we want :confused: and "non-muslim men simply looked passed them" which is again... how it should be :confused: . Sexyness is an attitude, a state of mind. It has nothing to do with flashing your flesh. Dont believe it, noh? When summer comes, and come it may, watch how females dress and they will hit your gag reflex by the amount of flesh they showcase. And then, once in a while you'll see a woman dressed in a long tunic with a pair of trousers, hair pulled back with her baby and you just think thats sexy.

Ok, now if all that was not bad enough, the so called romantic couple that everything involves around, take turns in raping each other covered in masks in some sort of sadistic plots! In fact normal consensual relationship does not occur till only four pages of the book is left. Sounds like a Red-Neck kind romance and who would send you a romance novel :confused: , I would be scared to even mention it to you . Oh that Siren never listens to anyone* Imagines Ibtisam convulsing with disgust as she reads the sexual scenes. shakes her head from side to side with disgust and shame for SIREN. stares at her Shaah and waits impati

May Allah reward your good deeds and accept your prayers Sis. Insha'llah be patient and content with what you have and Allah will not ignore your suffering because he is gracious and generous. And like the sisters and brothers before me adviced, keep your eyes on the bigger picture which is leading a good life. MARRIAGE IS OVERRATED. It is not as wonderful, fullfuling and the end to all your misery card as fairytales might have you beleive but still I understand the need for a companion. Good luck, Hun. You're in my prayers.

Walee sidan waa "The Blind Leading the Blind." He needs to mind his own damn bussiness. Geesinimadiisa wayba iga dhimatay when he started preaching from caves while everyday ppl are dying for his ideas,uff.

Uh, been walking lately but havent seen inside a gym this week. I will start tonight.
