Hate comments I received

Since I last wrote my “Muslim marriage crisis” blog entry, I’ve received some personal attacks from people who possibly know me, but want to hide behind the computer screen and insult me. They claim that I’m “desperate” for a man, and some even said that I will “never marry”. Pretty harsh? I think so too. Which brings me to that topic of marriage in the Muslim community again. In Islam, we’re not supposed to date or be alone with the opposite gender. Many sisters who are practicing the religion find it difficult as they don’t want to do the whole dating thing, and when they ask others to help them find a mate, they are often told by others, especially other sisters that they are “desperate”.  Which is exactly how I got insulted for writing such things that are facts in the USA for Muslims here. 

Personally,l know most Somali sisters want to marry a Somali man, for cultural reasons. However, for some sisters it can be difficult especially if you live in states where there are not many Somalis. I personally know some Somali girls who have went back to Africa and got married to Somali men there. I actually think that’s a good idea. Somali men in Africa still have chivalry, and don’t want to play around. They usually are seeking marriage in a halal way. I would definitely urge Somali sisters who are looking to marry a Somali man to look for a husband in Africa. They are very respectable towards women there also. Somali men here in the United States have been doing that for a while, they often as I said previously seek Somali wives in other countries. The whole feminism thing here where women in America want to act like a man, has turned many men off. Even American men prefer foreign women compared to American women. American women can’t fry an egg is what this one guy told me, and the reason why he prefers foreign women. So, my point is life is too short to not get what you want. 

As far as the hate comments go, anytime you have an opinion in life, there are people who will not agree with you. I simply delete most of the hate comments I receive in this blog because I’m about being positive.
