Should the Somali community emulate Arabs/Asian muslims to deal with the high divorce rate?

We all know that Somali men are extremely laidback and practically let the women run the household. No women in the Muslim world have more freedom and power than Somali women yet despite that blessing we offer them, the divorce rate is extremely high and western Somali relationships is a ticking time bomb before they go their separate ways. Usually giving a birth to children would mean that the couple would try to stay together for the kid's sake but Somali's see it as the perfect time to get the f*ck out of there.

Its time we emulate the strict Arab/Asian communities and become more controlling, tougher on these women and make divorce taboo.

Kobe u r right, Somali culture, Somali women have way too much control over men than other societies. It is their nature. Even multiple colonial testimony written by British colonialists have been published here in Somali spot to show Somali women's vulgar independence. That is why we have divorces. Guess what? Here in America, Divorce is 50% rampant too. That is a scary number. What do Somali women and american women have in common? Both work for a living. And both wear the pants in the house. That causes a hierarchy disorder. U could argue both Somali men and American men are weak too. The happy Man is he who is financially Alpha and his wife a stay at home mom.
 
The problen isn't divorce but the inability to properly co-parent.

Divorce is due to the social stigma being less in the West, meaning that the relationship that last in Arab/Asian countries are not due to the foundation but rather inability to get divorce without social consequences.

Women are not meant to be the controller and Leader of the household, those marriages will fail.
 
No. That would mean emulating the practice of excessive child marriage, and honor killing/throwing acid on your daughter for not marrying her uncle. That's why Arab countries have among the highest rates of genetic disorders in the world.

If they want to divorce, they shall and it's what was meant to be.

Exactly shit like that cannot be part of the somali community we fine without that
 
Why would we emulate acid throwing Pakis and honor killing Arabs? If y’all wanna control anyone hit the gym first with yo xylophone looking ribs

Their divorce rates is also rising, would you sacrifice the independence of Somali women for something that’s rising everywhere in the world.

Xeer wouldn’t allow Somali women be treated like that. Somalis may have a lot of problems but abusing, throwing acid and honor killings isn’t in our culture and hopefully never will.
