Somali traditional attire

Oxidant · Postby **Oxidant** » Mon Mar 16, 2015 3:12 am

I still think Somali nomads looked better than their contemporaries. They had more symmetrical faces and better teeth. It's an observation. I blame an urbanized diet, increased sugar consumption and inactivity on what has come of them. I hope we don't become dopey looking like typical cadaans. They've ruined themselves by increasing their consumption of processed grain for over 130 years. If there weren't orthodontists available . Food does play a significant role and it shouldn't be discounted.

Thank you, perfectly said.

This was at a wedding in Melbourne. Very beautiful wallahi.

How do you know it's from a wedding in Melbourne? You were an Aussie all this time and you never even hinted? Meesha faro maa kaa yaalo, qofyahey? :lupe:

Nah! Never been to Melbourne, nor to any other Australian city (apart from Sydney airport twice as transit). More than 10 years in Australia and I am still in the same city where I first came.

Lazies R Us!

Lazy foqal lazy!
Where are you? Brisbane? Adelaide?

Sorry I am asking you that.
I am not an Aussie though, just been in Melbourne once to visit a relative.

South Australia. War anaaba isla yaabo mar-mar. Most of the folks that we came here together either moved to Melbourne or Perth (and few to other cities), anigana xitaa holiday uma tegin, iska daa in aan meel kale u guuro. Hal mar aan dibadda aaday, like 7 years ago and that's it. I hate moving to new places and learning and adapting to new environment. As long as I have all the things I need here I really don't see the need to go to somewhere else coz "that's where most Somalis are". F Somalis!

You are not adventurous at all

Go out, explore new places. Take a break from environments you already adopted.
Couple of weeks or more holidays won't kill you

You don't have to move or check other places coz "Most Somalis" are there and there

The last holiday I have been on was back in January 2008. Hadda I take about a week or 2 off from work after every 3 or 4 months just to rest and never go anywhere. Bidaarta maxaa iga soo bixiyaad u maleysaa? Waa work-related stress and no holidays.

And then instead of resting while at home watching movies or sleeping much, you come and waste time on snet sax

The whole Snet experience is for chit chat and socializing so stop being so serious, girl.

Plat, you are acting as if you have ever seen a thread that stays on topic here :comeon:

@vivacious and osman...yes, but this is supposed to be an educational topic. Why don't you guys share other stuff about somali tradition?
