Are American Somalis more into touch with their culture?

[World]

You know... I follow a lot of Somalis from America and it seems like they are so much better than the ones in the U.K. The girls seem far more wifey material as well compared to the ones from the UK. Maybe the ones in the U.K. have the highest rates of daddy issues or something? Even the ones who don't know much about Somali culture don't suffer from self hate. You American faraaxs are lucky.

Think I'm gonna have to relocate for ya'll.

You are overestimating American Somalis my dude. The universal rule is to remember that their are good and bad apples everywhere you go and not to generalize.

The Isaaq communities in Cardiff, Liverpool and Sheffield are very intact, very old school. Londons the opposite tho.

Nah, you have US Somalis claiming to be fully fledged Americans. You rarely see that in Europe.

Americanness is inclusive, while in Europe you can be a foreigner after a thousand years of residence (Jews, Romas etc).

That's true. Despite having lived here in Sweden my entire life i never once considered myself fully Swedish.

Like you said, the US offers an all encompassing identity free of ethnic ties, which actually works to their advantage since it's much easier to integrate people that way.
