A True Soomaali Model

Recommended Posts

Salaan...

 

The ever-shrinking of seeing an important cultural Soomaali garment sisters used to wear daily in public in a not distant-memory, and almost relagated to weddings only now, sometimes you wonder if it is dying part of our culture.

 

Of course I am talking about dirac.

 

But this lady defied the odds, indeed.

Are you saying that in order to be a "true" Somali lady, you have to wear dirac?

 

 

And if they don't wear dirac, does that make them less than a Somali?

 

I didn't realize that Somalis placed so much value into superficial stuff :confused:

I can't see the pics but if its about Diraac ,then I agree with DA on that one.I thinks Diraac is so over rated especially since thats not our traditional dress but rather an imported item which does not even do its job well of covering the body that wears it.

Thanx thats funny and cool...A white chick in a dirac.lol

 

Men some ppl are quick at shooting from the hips. Come on DA and OG give the bro a break??? This was done all in humor and ofcourse with some personal opinion for that matter.

Why do u feel the urge to challenge or be critical in every matter of cultural discussions??

 

Besides I didn't see anywhere where the bro said or implied to be a somali you have to wear a dirac and whether he said it or not am sure it

will not affect in anyway your choice of dresiing!!!!

I agree with this statement by Dangerous, 100%..

 

West un bayd sanka naga soo gel gelin mar walba..

 

hey Miskiin macroof, i don't agree with dirac and guntiino, coz it does't cover the women's body, and there fore it clashes with islamic teachings, but at home for her husband is cool, guntiino is fine if they cover that garab, and for dirac, it shouldn't be see through, atleast wear goorgorad and gabasaar with it, that's better.

dayumm, the girl waba qatar, macal dahab ayee la qabtaa lol

 

coming back to the topic, i bet if we wore it, you still wouldnt be satisfied with it. Maryooley waala yaqaana ee xan iyo balaayo ayee bilawi lahayeen cuz we all know how well dirac covers us up

 

Besides what is wrong with the skirst and stuff that we wear, since when was that too western

 

phew, muran jecla nibankaan...
