Most cultures tend to have higher standards for women. Weβre policed more, monitored more and this starts from a very young age. Also, itβs harder for a girl to get into the wrong crowd as girls donβt have as much freedom as boys. A young girl isnβt going to be allowed to go out with mates as much or stay out longer, thus lessening the exposure to degeneracy. Also, most cultures have a βboys will be boysβ attitudes to menβs mistakes whilst women are told that the familyβs honor is in their hands. A girl messing up will impact everyone, from the father to the mother and to the brother. Also, young girls are given responsibilities at a younger age as families tell them that theyβre going to wives someday, hence they need to learn how to cook, clean and help with younger sibling.
Donβt get me wrong, monitoring girls and giving them responsibilities a good thing, but itβs sad that young men arenβt given the equivalence nor are they watched as much as they should.
Honestly, the way society particularly Somalis raise their boys is causing direct issues and itβs impacting the marriage market. Say what you want to say about Somali girls, yes you do get degenerate ones here and there, but one thing that is facts is that a good % of them are responsible. Furthermore, a lot have managed to not only get degrees and work ect but they also help their parents with the chores and itβs very common for girls from my generation to give their parents money for the house ect.
Allowing boys to be responsibility free is damaging us and that is what is happening with Western Somalis.
