Are Somali women strictly protected by their families to restrict their habits like going out and meeting men?
For example, I was once was at a bar on the West Bank (Nomad Pub) having a few drinks and was approached by young Somali girl. She was probably just over 21 as the bar is 21-plus only. She was flirting and coming onto me but I was trying to ignore her (as I have a long-time girlfriend). Eventually she disappeared for a little bit down the bar somewhere. A little time passed and all of a sudden an older man comes barging into the bar to practically tears her out of there and forces her into a car outside. He was pissed and she seemed pretty perturbed and embarrassed by the event.
What do you make of this situation, as well?"
