Do Somali girls divorce just for clout?

Why do you think she left youtube Jaydan?

Sometimes we reflect and realise something is not good for us

Thats clearly a lie. I have very older women in my family who were divorced in the 1950's and 1960s.

All of them got remarried and went on to have 5+ kids.

Doesn't seem like divorce rarely happened. Spoke to elderly members and have read enough books on Somalia in the early 20th century.

Obviously wasn't as bad as it is now, but it happened and certainly wasn't considered shocking, unless you are from some parts of the waqooyi Galbeed.

I'm from Mudug and divorce in baadiyo was rare. We are also sufi so divorce was even more taboo. In Somali sufism, there is no khula. A woman can not be divorced except by her husband and that rarely happened as marriage back then was more of an alliance. The family of the girl wouldn't take her back either so divorce would lead to ruin

What part of Somaliya are you from

I spend time on the Politics/Tribal section, and that's the first thing I've read on this forum that actually offended me.

That's a myth saxiib. Just because people did not know about Khula does not mean husbands were not divorcing their wives if the wife expessed she did not want to be with him anymore. ALL areas of Somalia were Shafi and Sufi. So Sufism has nothing to do with it.

Both sides of my family are from big cities. City folk have different attitudes to reer meey, although again, divorce isn't as rare as you make it seem.

Also, i was reading I.M Lewis book on Somalis which I found rather interesting and he touches on that. I also asked elder members and they kind of agreed.

I'm not saying it was as bad as it is today, but it certainly wasn't shocking. If divorce was unknown amongst us like the Asians, we would have a completely different attitude as our grandparents and parents would have made a big fuss and the divorce rate back home would be low as well, yet it isn't.

Also, as Somalis our temperament as people are not extreme or unforgiving towards women, even if you want it to. Most divorced women, would be taken back. Parents are parents, but many at times were pressured to marry again.

You're an idealist, but culture does not change rapidly overnight.

Go to miyi now, that culture exists. If you are city folk then you can argue that. You think baadiyo was women friendly

Also I can tell you are lying. You've never been miyi or interacted with locals there. What you are saying is total cap

In what way am I inferior to @AussieHustler when it comes to wit?

I thought you gave up. And can you tell me why Abdis are striken more with baby rabbies than Xalimos.

The best way to eliminate divorces is never get married

I.M lewis talks about the nomadic culture of Somalis, and i've read enough to know that it isn't as rare or shocking as you make it seem. I'm not suggesting that it was seen as normal, but I don't buy for one second that these women were 'ruined' upon divorce. Also, i have reer meey people in my family, many were actually originally meey and migrated.

In every way. He was funny, witty and he liked to call Somali men out on their shit. You will never be able to measure up to him so don’t try.
