Seriously guys,

AMericans consider it, The Pakistanis consider it and the Indians consider it.

So for Somalis,

How much do you consider a girl's or a boy's education when you are looking for a partner to marry?

Is No education absoute no to marriage.

Potential wife must have a masters at the very least.

I am the bread winner.....and she takes care of my kids...education is not important....

If Somali girls are to demand a pompous mariage then you will have to consider her value for money.
I mean why waste £20,000 + on Aroos while Xalimo has nothing to offer?
so thats my two cents

~Birds of a feather flock together~



If she is educated, he should be too. If she is not, then it is okay


Qofba qofkiisa, right?

I agree! People should have similar interests.

masters degree usually yield high income.....what are you offering?

if she aint gotta phd, she can get with me

That doesn't mean anything there are a lot of dense people that are educated, somethings school can't teach you.

He should have a higher degree than me, which is a PHD/doctorate degree!

You've changed your views. You like smart guys all of a sudden!

Probably one of the last things i'd consider when getting married inshallah.

For those saying that their partner should have a masters or phd, be assured some of the most fascinating and brilliant people that I have met have never been beyond compulsory education. At the end of the day what does a degree really prove? that someone has the ability to be taught, research or write an exam.

^Not really. I like educated nomads

What the difference between a smart guy and an educated nomad?

Well, your not everyone. People have different expectations. These are acquired tastes, there are a certain level of sophistication/pre-requisites that educated people posses! I suppose, its each to their own.
