Feminism? RECIPES??? :eek: :eek: I'm sorry, but I can't stand the new tag for the women's section. Which bright spark came up with it anyway? I just bet they had a good laugh at our expense. 'Family values' I can understand, 'Ideas' I don't know about (what ideas :confused: ) but I guess its too vague to matter, 'Feminism' is just INSULTING our intelligence but it's the 'Recipes' I can't stomach! RECIPES for God's sake! WHY? Of the 29,595 articles posted in the women's section, less than 5 threads have been about recipes. I ask again WHY? I cant get over it. I thought the previous 'romance and relationships' byline was bad, but this, THIS takes the cake! I have never felt so insulted or enraged in my life! UNACCEPTABLE!!!! :mad: :mad: **hyperventilates**

Phanta rhei :mad: :mad: :mad:

^ Hadaa? Neutral is my middle name. I always sit on the wall. But since you asked so nicely... A simple 'yes' or 'no' you say? Hmm, I think... Nahii. No one can deny anyone else's rights.

^ Sometimes I wonder what planet you hail from.

^ LoL...silly old man.

Norf, Is that a rhetorical question? My post was actually refering to the one above yours. Sheh, Sure you want to abandon us?

Modesty, All the fat ladies you see in your neighbourhood, are they also pushing prams by any chance? From what I have seen, unmarried girls aren't usually fat (thin-med sized). 'Tis the married ones who balloon out of all proportion. As for diets, I usually gain weight when I spend too much time at home, because I eat like mad. But once am out of the house, am fine. Its easier to suppress the hunger pangs when ur busy.

^^ Invasion of the politically deranged!! :eek: Yikes! Isnt the politics forum a big enough hole for you lot? Now you want to bring the inexhaustible whining to the general section? **Shakes her fist** :mad: :mad:

By OLOL: Imagine if Somalis quit chewing Qat, what would that capital money would have done? They could have used it to set up waste collection and sewer management systems, open more clinics, orphanages; they could have rehabilitated some old schools, repatriate refugees to their farms and villages, dig wells, buy fishing boats, farm tractors and so on. Or imagine if they grew it themselves (growing it is very capital-intensive and it takes years before it can be harvested, apparently), and exported it abroad? They would be swimming in revenue. Is qaad grown in any part of Somalia/Somaliland horta?

I counted three. I didnt even see the 'of's'.

<-- Clean out of hobbies. Unless you call people-watching on the Tube a 'hobby'. I'm thinking of becoming a blogger, in the vein of 'this morning I saw a woman wearing loose linen polka-dotted trousers that resembled pajama bottoms on the Bakerloo line'....not exactly monumental, unless you're the fashion police.

Phantasma, yea, you need "NIN". That is how I read your comments lol. Your type can't do without a man. Ilaahey mid fiican hakuu sahlo. LoL. I take it you also read 'No' as 'Yes'? Good to know that my *type* can't do without a man. Guess I'll just have to work that much harder on bucking the trend.

^ :cool: 'IT'S A MAN'S WORLD' ^^ The new faarax motto? Ahh, bless. Actually the world belongs to ants.

Hmmm...single mothers are at least contributing something to society. They are bringing up their children without anyone's help. I cant say the same for these 'helpful' single guys you are all talking about (like they are manna from the sky :rolleyes: ). What exactly are they contributing? Oh wait...of course...they will probably marry and produce some offsprings (woohoo), before eventually abandoning them to their mothers and buggering off to God knows where. :rolleyes: Even married women, who live with their husbands, are in effect single mothers these days, in that the fathers rarely take part in the practical upbringing of their children. He only comes home for food and sex. Good if you can get it, I suppose. This is not to say that there arent any good dads, there are plenty. Children are a blessing, and they provide more emotional support and unconditional love than a woman could ever get from a silly little man (dont bother with the 'sexual needs' argument, because those are easily suppressed, and there's no telling whether she would get them satisfied even if she were to marry again ). If she has kids (and is lucky enough not to be saddled with the demands of a 'husband'), she has everything she needs. I would be content with that, if I was her.

Sigh God give me strength. Phoenix, perhaps you should change ur signature. Ur not exactly living up to it. :rolleyes:

^ Do you mean they should be castrated? Isn't that harsh? Plus, how will our nation reproduce in the future? Come to think of it....

Femme, You missed his point, dear. Men are *not* the problem. They are decent and Islamic. *See Below*. Obviously, he hasnt seen many girls who have taken the first choice. Makes you wonder. MOST GIRLS IN THE WEST FACE A CLEAR CHOICE: SHOULD THEY OBEY THEIR RELIGION AND CULTURE AND DRESS DECENTLY, ACT RESPECTFULLY AND WEAR THEIR HIJAAB OR SHOULD THEY JOIN THE STRUGGLE OF FEMINISM WHOSE VIEWS OF SEXUAL INDEPENDANCE AND IMMORALITY THE KORAN FORBIDS. SADLY, MSOT GIRLS PREFER TO TRY TO BLEND IN WITH THE LOST WESTERNSIED WHITE AND BLACK GIRLS IN THE WAY DRESS, TALK AND GENERALLY BEHAVE .

^In your own little way, you can. That's all one can ask, really. I read the book in Uni. And yes, I thought it was brilliant. Although, I never went for brands in general, it did make me more vigilant in my purchasing habits. I'm sorry I cant write anything more in-depth. 'Sunday fatigue'. What did YOU think of NO LOGO?

Hmmm...such scathing remarks. I wonder, are you lot pissed off because u wont be able to qualify for the programme? Yes, I'm refering to the age range. See Barwaaqo's post on the "Sleeping around" topic for a definition of "Female Genital Enhancement Surgery". UD, you're confusing Bishaaro with me, I think.

^^^i havnt missed anything. My prediction was correct to a T! Haye...is it the Friday feeling? I meant u missed ur *career* calling, not ur predictions. Wake up.

Of course Zina is zina ppl, was there ever any doubt about that? The question is, why is society more prejudiced against women when it comes to committing that crime? Since the punishments are the same for both genders, how is it that the girl gets the brunt of the blame and the most censure and the guy gets away with minimum if any damage? That's what I took the thread to be about. Zu, Is that what happens on Zu mountains? :eek: [E]Oops...seems like I just repeated what Moth wrote. Moth, you have raised some valid points. :cool:

^ Your looking at the wrong part. My area is still a labour stronghold. The borough is divided into 3 constituencies, and as of this morning, one is a confirmed conservative seat, the other a labour seat and the third hasnt been declared yet. Also, my job is labour-funded, and since labour has secured its third term, my contract is also secure for another 3 years, Insha'Allah. How wicked is that? I know, I'm a sell-out, but a girl has to look after herself. PS: Too right you should become a political analyst. You've surely missed ur calling.

^ Just taking a peek.

Someone needs to be informed about the 'NO QABIIL-NAMES RULES' on SOL.
