Best course: Physics of Kama Sutra Worst Course: medical ethics *dreadfully boring* :eek:

question : are there any psych grads in here? I just had few questions about the GRE :confused: :confused:

I would love him to be a split-image of me...I'm so gorgeous, I could only settle with someone in my standards...dhuxul waa inuu kamadobada, ilko jaalo ah qabo...waa inuu gari ka dheer yahay, sida looxa cato uyahay....gurls, now that would be a definit turn on :cool:

'm addicted to cambulo n subag...hence the reason why I smell like a skunk n suffer from obesity

salaam alaikum, will ya'll stop attacking Sir salafi :mad: ... I was trying to seduce him into going on a date with urs truly ...He just needed a second opinion...so sheikh salafi, since they confirmed that it was halal would u consider going on that virtual date wit me already, I'll make sure to wear a mini-skirt as u requested

salam, ijabo, sweety I hardly doubt shyness that is your problem, you just haven't met the right person when you meet "THE FARAX" it would feel like the most natural thing to do, you would feel like you are talking to your best-friend than a potential "to be" if u get my drift;)...I'm proud to admit being shy by nature, I constantly feel the emotions you have discribed, but I define my feelings differently... Opinionated: thnk you for clarifying the difference b/w shyness n modesty...most of us are unable to clearly differentiate the two :eek: ... 'm just gonna add my two cents here...To be modest you are able to control your desire n behavior-it was nauseating to read how some faraxs in here attempted to state that only xalimo's are expected to be modest! n they also pointed out how rare of a quality it was among us "xalimos", well atleast it is not extint unlike(hmmmm is there a need to point fingers?) the term "hypocrisy" does seem to come in mind lakked, walalo since when does shyness have age limit? :confused: have you not seen a kindergardner who can seem oh-ever-so-grown-up that could express their emotions or behave in ways you never thought was possible? shyness is not a disease that needs to be cured! nor is it emotional disability!... personally speaking, I believe shy folks are the best actors, for we are constantly role-playing; which is hard for most to detect(its about time we are nominated as superb actors *hehe*)....in case you haven't got my lamme excuse for humor, the last sentence was suppose to be a joke...anywho, I think 'm going way off topic here, so 'mma wrap it up

Shabelle, huuno thnks for bringing it to our attention...If I may make a small suggestion, I hardly doubt speaking to your prof will resolve the issue, I would encourage you to write to the author, if not him/her than to the publishers...it is revolting how things like are not detected by students, I really admire you for not only being outraged but also wanting to do something about it

salam, sorry couldn't respond much earlier than this, but my holidays just started... Most of you stated that it doesn't concern us nomads... Here is my question to you, as a farax do u not date a non-xalimo? Ergo, this article pretty much concerns you, yes its obvious you are not African American, but you are a black man dating other race...Even though I consider myself an enlightened and tolerant sister who has viewed cross dating as optional, it still does bother me to see not just Somali men but black men in general being exclusively linked with women that aren't black...I could tell you right now that the whole black men-white women unions is still the dilemma du jour for many sisters. Quiet as it's kept, there is an undercurrent of paranoia about rising interracial relationships and specially when those men are the only few good Somali men that we have. When I send the article, I didn't think ya'll would literally read the letter and take it as it is, but I just thought you'll reflect on it, and relate to how it concerns us Somalis. Its not being prejudice to wish your men would end up with your race,we are not raising our future generations for other cultures...Well unless that person is a no good farax, whose only source of income is ceer, and he is only concerned about " marduf kiisa jaadka intuu ka iman dona", in that case we would love it if he dates any sister that ain't a xalimo.. Anywho, I know for a fact it will wound me deeply, to see my brothers whom I have worked so hard to shape them into being a man any xalimo would be proud of to call hers, end up with a indo-paki or any other race, that isn’t a xalimo... indeed we all have our flaws, but in my view there is no man who would be an ideal man for a xalimo other than her farax. When I have read this article thats the first thing that came to my mind, how I would feel disappointed, and when I read the response of the brother, I just imagined it being a mali brother's view, which really made my day...I should have known better than to think some of you would put a use to that imagination of urs

nasir, your still here? lol, I thought u were gone for good, I guess this place is addictive huh? can't blame ya

dad( mind if I call u aabo?) thnks for that, b/c of you, I finally found some names for my future daughters...now the thing I can't decide which ones I like best, so I think I might need some help here... folks I need your feedback on this one: shuundheer subkan? or ceebdheer shankaroon? hmmm its a hard one! :confused: how about Atula butac? barni buuxsan? or maybe buula bararsan? my favourite has to be shuun faynus...maybe jawhar batula? :cool: what the heck I'll just have 10 daughter

heblaayo, that was somali? I thought it was gibberish? it was good hon! (**I'm hoping she doesn't have a sarcasm detector with her**)

Nur, maybe one of these days I'll have the time to read one of ur posts... just out of curiousity, do u ever post anything short, oh say less than a page?

since when do we consider people of the book as believers? I guess we are taking being politically correct to another new level... interesting :rolleyes:

Salam ... It really made my day when I received this e-mail and I thought it'd be worth sharing with all the sisters on SOL....Hope u enjoy it as much as I did _________________________________________________ Subject: Angry White Girl to Black Men Read on............So great to find this Black Prince defending us like this... It seems that an article was written to Sister 2 Sister magazine by a Caucasian woman who requested a response from black men. I'm so glad she got what she asked for (and more) !!! This letter was written in response to an article in Sister 2 Sister: Dear Jamie: I'm sorry but I would like to challenge some of your Black male readers. I am a White female who is engaged to a Black male-good-looking, educated and loving. I just don't understand a lot of Black female's attitudes about our relationship. My man decided he wanted me because the pickings amongst Black women were slim to none. As he said they were either too fat, too loud, too mean, too argumentative, too needy, too materialistic or carrying too much excess baggage. Before I became engaged, whenever I went out I was constantly approached by Black men, willing to wine and dine me and give me the world. If Black women are so up in arms about us being with their men, why don't they look at themselves and make some changes. I am tired of the dirty looks I get and snide remarks when we're out in public. I would like to hear from some Black men about why we are so appealing and coveted by them. Bryant Gumbel just left his wife of 26 years for one of us. Charles Barkley, Scottie Pippen, the model Tyson Beckford, Montell Williams, Quincy Jones, James Earl Jones, Harry Belafonte, Sydney Poitier, Kofi Anan, Cuba Gooding Jr., Don Cornelius, Berry Gordy, Billy Blanks, Larry Fishburne, Wesley Snipes...I could go on and on. But, right now, I'm a little angry and that is why I wrote this so hurriedly. Don't be mad with us White women because so many of your men want us. Get your acts together and learn from us and we may lead you to treat your men better. If I'm wrong, Black men, let me know. - Disgusted White Girl, Somewhere in VA. Response: Dear Jamie: I would like to respond to the letter written by A Disgusted White Girl. Let me start by saying that I am a 28-year old black man. I graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in Atlanta, Georgia with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at a major corporation and have recently purchased a house. So, I consider myself to be among the ranks of successful black men. I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I just want to set the record straight of why black men date white women. Back in the day, one of the biggest reasons why black men dated white women was because they were considered easy. The black girls in my neighborhood were raised in the church. They were very strict about when they lost their virginity and who they lost it to. Because of our impatience to wait, brothers would look for someone who would give it up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned to the white girls. Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of brothers date white women because they are docile and easy to control. A lot of black men, because of insecurities, fears, and overall weaknesses, have become intimidated by the strength of our black women. We are afraid that our woman will be more successful than us, make more money than us, drive nicer cars and own bigger houses. Because of this fear, many black men look for a more docile woman. Someone we can control. I have talked to numerous black men and they continuously comment on how easy it is to control and walk over their white women. I just want to set the record straight. I want A Disgusted White Girl to know that not all successful black men date white women. Brothers like Ahmad Rashad, Denzel Washington, Michael Jordan, Morris Chestnut, Will Smith, Blair Underwood, Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Samuel L. Jackson, and Chris Rock all married strong black women. And, to flip the scrip, there are numerous white men, in and out of the spot light, who openly or secretly desire black women over white women. Ted Danson, Robert DeNiro, and David Bowie to name a few. I just don't want a disgusted white girl to be misinformed. Stop thinking that because you are white that you are some type of goddess. Remember, when black Egyptian Queens like Hatsepshut and Nitorcris were ruling Dynasties and armies of men in Egypt, you were over in the caves of Europe eating raw meat and beating each other over the head with clubs. Read your history! It was the black woman that taught you how to cook and season your food. It was the black woman that taught you how to praise your children. It was black women who were breastfeeding and raising your babies during slavery. It is the black woman that had to endure watching their fathers, husbands, and children beaten, killed, and thrown in jail. Black women were born with two strikes against them: being black and being a woman. And, through all this, Still They Rise! It is because of the black women's strength, elegance, power, love and beauty that I could never date anyone except my black Queen. It is not just the outer beauty that captivates and draws me to them. It is not the fact that they come in all shapes, sizes, colors and shades that I love them. Their inner beauty is what I find most appealing about black women. Their strong spirit, loving and nurturing souls, their integrity, their ability to overcome great obstacles, their willingness to stand for what they believe in, and their determination to succeed and reach their highest potential while enduring great pain and suffering is why I have fallen in love with black women. I honestly believe that your anger is geared more toward jealousy and envy than snotty looks. If this were not so, then why do you continuously go to tanning salons to darken your skin? If you are so proud to be white, then why don't you just be happy with your pale skin? Why do you continue to inject your lips, hips, and breasts with unnatural and dangerous substances so you can look fuller and more voluptuous? I think that your anger is really a result of you wanting to have what the black woman has. BOTTOM LINE: If I were looking for a docile woman, someone I can walk over and control, I would give you a call. But, unfortunately, I am looking for a Virtuous Woman. Someone that can be a good wife and mother to my children. Someone who can be my best friend and understands my struggles. I am looking for a soul mate. I am looking for a sister and; unfortunately, you do not and CANNOT fit the bill. No offense taken, none given.
