Zu, saaxiib your right, as you and aeronwen have pointed out, brotha nuur is getting an unnecessarily hardtime, however look at it this way, anyone less worthy wouldnt get this amount offlack ;) and i agree that there is an irony in labelling him while complaining about the labels he assigns.

 

the aim is simple, we shouldnt stand for chauvenism... we dont stand for rascism, we dont stand for qabiil, and nor should we stand for sexisms.

 

The better, less confrontational way of saying what i've said is:

 

' nuur as a virtual elder in this community, please think about the message your trying to convey. I may agree or disagree with you, but thats neither here nor there.

you have a lot of sway and your oppinions and articles generate a lot of responses. And as such, it is *incumbent* on you to set the stantards... especially if you see a part of your role as bringing enlightement to these here nomads'

 

Sexims as nuur defined is: 'discrimination based on gender' its also the assignment of gender roles;

.. u' cant do this 'cos . ..

... u're this 'cos

 

Its the way a brotha looks at sista a 'cos she's wearing a pair of jeans. Its the lack of domestic equality as you so righly stated, its the fact she gets paid on avr.40% less than a man for the same job. its many many many more things that just lead to women being pigeon-holed to be exploitated.

 

Now i'm not gonna question how an individual runs their personal life, how they are brought up and what values they are raised with and etc.

 

but when i read the 'blah di resistor.. blah' it tells me 'if a woman dont fit my peg-hole here .. well .. .. and worst of all you attempted to justify it.

 

You might see it as light humour getting a message accross, but your just giving the goons that kick a sista in the chest to keep her down more ammunition.

 

where do i want it to from here.. as zu said, this wasnt enought for me, brotha nuur didnt proove, he stated and as an engineer, i want the proof. this however comes in the content of his future messages ...
