CL I can only say that most of us have good intentions and expect to do the right thing. But somne of these stuff hurt real bad/cause families to break but since most of us arent going thru it, we dont realise how bad it can get. So we accept it or even encourage it. There are some ladies who are fiercely jealous ( I can tell you are one of those CL since calling the man a property )and those ladies' hubbies sure know where she stands and wouldnt dare to wed again if they want peaceful life with their first wife. I happen to think that married men who marry other women are thoughtless, selfish, uncaring son of a so so.

I thought I had no problem with it...till it came too close to home. 6months ago. Trust me, no lady is happy with sharing even if they say so.

Here is one who is not happy to share..anymore

trolling even on val's day girls? Even JB ayaa xargo isku hayo.

This fascination with London is unwarranted. Perhaps Cadaan should be introduced a real game of true sport (football). That is about the only exciting that happens in London.

It would be interesting to investigate the stand of muslim countries. I remember back in Somalia where some aunties used to be refused to cover their head, even with illyar.

FACTBOX: Policies on Muslim scarves and veils in Europe Sat Feb 9, 2008 8:41am EST Email | Print | Share| Reprints | Single Page[-] Text [+] powered by Sphere(Reuters) - The wearing of Muslim face veils and headscarves in schools and at work is a sensitive topic across Europe. Here is a summary of policy in some key countries: TURKEY Mainly Muslim but secular Turkey has banned Islamic head-dress in universities and public offices. But parliament on Saturday resoundingly approved constitutional changes aimed at lifting a ban on female students wearing the Muslim headscarf in universities, the assembly's speaker said. The Islamist-rooted ruling AK Party and a key opposition party agreed to cooperate to lift the ban, but have faced stiff resistance from the powerful secular elite which includes judges, army generals and university rectors. Secularists see the garment as a threat to the country's strict separation of state and religion. Opinion polls show a majority of Turks back an easing of the ban in a country where about two-thirds of all women cover their heads. Face coverings such as the Afghan-style burqa or Middle Eastern-style niqab are relatively rare in secular Turkey, which traditionally follows a moderate brand of Sunni Islam and where segregation of the sexes is very much the exception, not the rule. NETHERLANDS The Dutch government is set to retreat from a plan for a general ban on Muslim face veils but stop women wearing them in schools and government offices, media reported on Wednesday. The cabinet has decided against a broad ban on the burqa or niqab in public as that would violate the principle of freedom of religion, the reports said. The Muslim community says only about 50 women wear the head-to-toe burqa or the niqab, a face veil that conceals everything but the eyes. They said a general ban would heighten alienation among the country's about 1 million Muslims. The previous centre-right Dutch government proposed a complete ban on face-veils in public, citing security concerns, but the centrist government that took power last year has taken a more conciliatory line on immigration. FRANCE France, with Europe's largest Muslim minority, banned headscarves from its state primary and secondary schools in 2004 under a law against conspicuous religious symbols that also included Jewish kippas and large Christian crosses. The government argued that wearing religious garb in state schools violated the legal separation of church and state. Supporters of the law also argued that impressionable young girls were forced to wear headscarves and the ban would help them decide for themselves if they wanted to cover their hair. Women at university can wear headscarves, since they are adults. Teachers and other civil servants may not wear any religious symbols at work at all. There were protests and warnings of unrest before the anti- headscarf law was passed, but it went into effect smoothly with very few girls being expelled from school for refusing to take off their headscarves. BRITAIN Britain has no official policy on headscarves or veils, but the issue has been hotly disputed. Schools are allowed to set their own dress codes, which have sometimes been challenged by girls unhappy with the rules. Solicitors and legal advisers have been told they can wear headscarves in court providing they do not interfere with proceedings. Most observers agree more and more British Muslim woman are wearing veils or headscarves. In 2006, British politician Jack Straw caused controversy by saying he would rather Muslim women did not wear veils and that he asked those who visited him in his constituency office to remove them. GERMANY Policy on face veils and headscarves is a matter for individual states in Germany, not the federal government. The Interior Ministry says there are no plans for any federal laws. Seven of Germany's 16 states have banned teachers in state schools from wearing Islamic headscarves, a policy which angers Muslim groups who say it discriminates against them. Hesse's conservative premier Roland Koch -- who is fighting for reelection -- called for a ban on pupils wearing a burqa in schools a few weeks ago. But his idea backfired when he discovered the state had no pupils who wore a burqa. The majority of Germany's roughly 3.2 million Muslims are of Turkish origin.

Originally posted by marcassmith: Thanks to Muslim extremist and their tirades of self-opinionated extremist bile agenda, i don’t think we longer live in a tolerant and multicultural society. Where I live, people are quite tolerant. But why would you want them to be tolerant of you when you aint so tolerant of the choices niqabis isters make? Originally posted by marcassmith: People have become suspicious of Muslims and this is largely due to extremist and their extreme views. Who is people? Do you mean the daily mail readers? Cos as far as I can tell, the usual racists and bigots shout the loudest. Who decides an individual to be extreme? Some deem the normal small hijab to be extreme, some even call those who attend the masjids just to pray 5 times a day extremist? Originally posted by marcassmith: As a Somali Muslim and British! I can truly say, I own a sense of allegiance to the UK. Good for you. Originally posted by marcassmith: When i was stranded and they offered me an opportunity to better oneself. Good for you Originally posted by marcassmith: So why should we kill innocent people on the trains and then claim to reaping the benefits of a multicultural society. TheMarc Classic. You sure you dont work for far right group? 99.9% of all muslims in this country are peaceloving law abiding citizens. How did we jump from niqabi sisters exercising their religious freedom and democratic choice to muslim murderers on the dole?
