:lol: well obviously a secularist like yourself would argue that Canada is the all encompassing beacon of hope among us diaspora folk....Sorry to burst your cosy little bubble, its not.
Remember to take cover when the new gang war starts and not to mention the lack of values etc etc.

I'll leave it to Hamza to act as an reference. We all know it, no hard feelings. Funny article btw

The Canadians – Team Yolo (You Only Live Once)
They are ciyaalka xafada (the cool kids on the block) and mooryans (gangsters) in the making. They are everyone’s friends. This group treats life as a party and Somalia as a dance floor. They usually arrive with few things – like a minor criminal record and a Mongolian scripture tattoo they got while under the influence on a night out in Toronto. It’s hard to find them talking about serious issues. Don’t mention school – they have usually dropped out of school and are sensitive discussing this subject. If you want them to unfriend you on Facebook, tag them in photos from your graduation ceremony.

They often blame the Canadian ‘system’ for their failure in school, and regularly point to Mark Zuckerberg and Steve Jobs as examples of people who succeeded in life without completing school. Team Yolo’s favourite topic of conversation is binge-drinking in Nairobi. They’re the company to keep on a weekend when anything Halaal is not on the list.
:holdup: YOLO

The only thing the Somalis up north have is their lacaag. A lot of them are financially well off for some reason and live comfortably -- but they are a misguided people. No deen, no culture, no morals. Wallahi billahi with my own eyes I saw Somali mom and what looked like her daughter drinking wine at a restaurant patio there. Gaalo culture. None can even speak Somali.

you do know that for most of our history, somali women didn't wear hijabs. the hijab is a carab cultural import. my mother grew up in somalia in the 70s and she said this definitely was the case then. plus you can look at old pictures of nomads going back to the early 1900s and many women wore their hair out.

if anything is moving away from out roots and culture, its wearing the hijab not taking it off.
I went through your posts just to familiarize myself with who I was about to respond to. I decided to go through your early posts, I think April 2014 posts and found these threads you create or respond to.


Now this girl possibly can't be Somali

ETC(LOTS OF POST)

Just by looking at the topics you are responding to and creating there seems to be a pattern.
Are you struggling with your identity or something?

You seem to associate the hijab with arab culture. Don’t know if there is correlation or not but from posts you seem to come across as someone with identity issues.

Hmm whatever. We all have issues. If you respond . i might not. snet is time consuming. bye

The whole "my mom in the 70s wore minskirts" wasn't due to somali culture but Siyad barre marxist ideology.

Somali women in the coast, their women covered with Hiab/Jalabeeb, those who live interior used Guntino, gambo etc.

So lemme get this straight. The somali who says we're not carab, we're not caucasian, but africans is the one who suffers from identity issues. :usure:

I know who I am. All my posts in those threads were directed at those who obviously don't know and don't want to know what they are. I'll just sit back and see how you spin this.

somali culture is reer miyi culture. and if you look back at old pictures from the early 1900s, there were no jalabeebs or hijabs. hell i've seen pictures of nomads with their breasts exposed. that is the people we come from. not this revisionist history you're trying to create.

Wallahi "Hoe-den" deserves to be gassed just for her appearance/accent alone.

I take it you don't agree with me. I was going to add the narrator and the Sheikh fella for his bizarre mannerisms but Ms. Brothel is definitely first in line for the shower room.

@Maliprince/Talo/Thug/Hyper, judging from the "is this girl Somali" thread I don't really agree with many of Maliprince's clearly Afrocentric views, but he does have a point that can't be dismissed by randomly mentioning MSB. Since the civil war, our cultural heritage has basically been supplanted in favor of Arabic dress deemed more "Islamic".

The jilbaab and even the khimaar is pretty much a relatively recent phenomenon, understandable given the pastoral lifestyle of most Somalis.

Based I thumped Talo's piece cos of its MSB context and for the heck of it.Everything you say you say about the Somali cultural is true.Laakiin would you rather choose western style of dress over your fellow Muslim Arabian modest attire.
