Hibo Posted April 2, 2002 Why are most Somali men mostly Skinny and the Women twice as Big.... Does the myth Amazon women come to mind? Or is it just a food versus Qaat Issue! Please make me understand the causes of this Phenomenon ------------------ ("`-''-/").___..--''"`-._ `6_ 6 ) `-.

Hibo Posted April 4, 2002 I'd like to think Food not being the factor dictating our 'Big and Beautiful size' Its partially by the genes we have inherited. Some people may have good metabolisms where even if they eat lots they don't get fat(i can eat a whole cow and not gain a pound), whereas with others they have to try very very hard with a strict diet to keep in shape. Most women gain weight after a kid or two - staying home moms, spending their days watching soap operas at home on the couch. So see pressure is on women more than men. Its true tho' there are plenty of skinny brothers - so skinny that their elbows are so sharb its like a pair of scissors - be it Qaat being the cause or not eating healthy. You men need to know ladies like something to hold on to, not to say having two Jumbo Jets within the same household is a great idea but a little Meat on you would greatly be appreciated. So go on, put some fat on you. God Bless ------------------ Live today to the fullest because tomorrow is not promised".

Hibo Posted April 4, 2002 Is it possible to have such a vast difference in the gentic make up of the women and men? I can understand why women tend to put on weight to acertain extent but then the men tend to be mostly skinny. As you know they already call us "Skinnies" the most feared when it comes to war. If I remember correctly back home when a lady gave birth to a kid it was always a custom to make sure the moms plate and glasses were always full. They made sure she was well fed and taken care so that the baby wouldnt starve. All well meaning but in the end a wee bit damaging when it came to the family onarment they carried behind them. Personally I appreciate it but just wanted the men to be given then same. so they let you girls have something to hold on to. ------------------ ("`-''-/").___..--''"`-._ `6_ 6 ) `-.
