Don't really agree that women are looser, most somali women I know are more practising than the men. They certainly drink less, sleep around less and spend more time praying and reading Quran.
Also more women in hell because there are more women in general. There will be a time when it's like 50 women to one man. People like you who make women sound like the spawn of satan are the reason some people say bad things about islam. Remeber you're an ambassador for your faith please think about how things come across before you go around spewing unsupported statements. I'd like proofs next time you want to make women sound so horrible.
I apologize, my sister.
After I posted my post, I did think I should have been more clear- my post was talking about the Westernized women. My post wasn't talking about you, from the sounds of it.
Now as for the interpretation of the hadith- I do think in a sort of mathematical average sort of sense.... a higher proportion of women end up in hell than men. I think this would be the more straightforward, plain interpretation of the hadith rather and I think the "it's because there's more women overall" is sort of a stretch to make it more politically correct.
That being said, what does it matter what sex one is? A man isn't better than a woman because he's a man- nor vice versa. There are plenty of women I'm inferior to and those are the women who have more taqwa than me.
My post was more about Westernized type women- I wasn't really talking about pious, Muslim women. I mean you look at especially at some of the older, more traditional women....... I have a lot of respect for them.
I don't say "well, uhhh..... I apologize if you were offended". I say I apologize.
I think I could have better specified that I was more talking about Westernized women- no way was I really talking the pious Muslim sisters.
I do disagree on a point but I don't mean an ounce or a drop of disrespect to you- I disagree that I am an ambassador. I don't believe that at all. An ambassador is a very diplomatic sort of person. I believe in telling the truth in a blunt manner. I don't care if I win people's hearts, I simply want to tell the truth.
I'm not trying to take a shot but a lot of women (it's almost always women) try to push me to take a more diplomatic approach. I think it's a difference in personality types and communication styles. I enjoy being blunt and it's simply my way of being. I sort of want to be as mathematically accurate in a sense and precise in what I say and so I sort of ignore being diplomatic for the sake of a sort of precision. A person that's more diplomatic can't tell the truth in as plain and direct a way as possible. I think it's a difference in male and female communication style and I think it's pretty reasonable that I would rather not go with a communication style that is more associated with women.
That being said- and there are men who do take a more diplomatic approach in their way if communication and I don't mean to insult them (as long as they're not imitating women)- I think there's room for different personalities and communication styles. One person might like to listen to a more blunt communication style, one might prefer a more gentle communication style.
Anyways, if you felt like my post was a shot at you- it wasn't. Unless you are one of those types pushing the undermining of the moral fabric (and I don't think you are at all), my post was not meant towards you.
