Another baati party. Is it actually this popular?

Only half are wearing actual baati lmfao

Also imagining a Somali man in Baati is the funniest thing

 

[Gracias]

I have never seen Somali girls dressing up in other people’s cultural clothing and having a little party dedicated to it. It’s weird but I don’t mind if they give us credit (altho I do think it’s a little cringe like can you imagine Chinese people wearing a hanbok & going “hanbok night” lol) but many of the people who copy Somalis are two faced & have cuqdad issues but then want to dress up as us and keep up to date with our every move…

I feel like it's all that African girl fault for some reason

 

[Espaa_]

Not a single somali female in sight

 

[Abdixakim]

Another one

can someone tell me when this trend start ?

 

[Gracias]

Somali girls started it a few years ago. They would wear a baati and show up with some snacks & food

Nothing wrong with this, in fact this should be flattering for somali girls. No need to get arrogant or defensive about this. We are seeing you guys spread your culture to others and its kinda beautiful.

If you have a problem with this might aswell stop wearing western clothes (pants, jeans, jackets) and especially the white wedding gown that cadaans invented.

Only problem I have is no somali is benefiting economically. Ok, somali shops sell baatis but somalis are not manufacturing them, its hindis or chinese. We need to change this, take control of our clothing.

It’s not flattering when some of the people posting their baati parties/nights don’t credit Somalis and their comment sections are full of ajanabis saying it’s not Somali clothing & insulting us when we say it is. Me disagreeing with that isn’t arrogance. Whether it’s baatis or diracs, non-Somalis who wear our clothes will literally copy us (Somali girls were the first to start this baati party/night trend) but then refuse to give us credit and imply it’s an “east african thing”. When we do something positive = east african. When we do something negative = somali

We should make Somali men baati's and sell them to Ajnabis. Money is money.

Except they do. Japanese and Korean people rebrand Chinese stuff all the time. It seems to be more in the west than elsewhere but it does happen very often. China is a classic example. People will be sinophobic but praise Japan and South Korea for their culture that is derived extensively from China.

 

[Vacelere]

I don't know but seeing white people wearing baati is so cringey

China's getting more popular now at least, but its crazy. Japanese letters, food are all based off chinese. Korean clothes, food, letters are based of Chinese stuff too. Justice for China

I agree but my point is that we’re China in this scenario. Koreans and Japanese will wear Chinese clothes and many of their traditions are derived from China but they get the praise while Chinese people get hate when they try to claim credit which leads to stuff like people refusing to say Chinese new year and instead it’s rebranded as lunar new year. Koreaboos & weebs will argue with Chinese people in regards to their influence on east asian culture the same way you have random unrelated ajanabis (like not from east africa) saying it isn’t Somali culture and being xenophobic to us. Chinese people aren’t wearing hanbok. Somalis aren’t wearing whatever habeshas wear or whatever kenyans wear, it’s them mimicking us but not giving credit

I didn't phrase myself correctly. I agree with you completely. I cannot imagine wearing a Kemis unless I was at a wedding. Matcha for example is Chinese but it is marketed as Japanese. Many companies source from Japan as it is seem as more authentic so Japan is making money from this.
