I love how divorce isn’t a social killer for Somalis like other Muslim cultures.

I see Somali women in my family getting divorced/married multiple times and she isn’t seen as lesser.

Some modern qurbajoog men try to place non-Somali expectations on women such as hating ‘used’ divorced women but so far I haven’t seen this effect a woman’s life irl

Good for her, I love how non-patriarchal Somali culture is. Yes there are gendered roles (home tending vs geeljire lifestyle which both genders have participated in), but women aren’t expected to be subservient and silent
