Whats with Western Somalis getting married so young?

[babooshke]

Some of these halimos and faraax are getting married at 20 and 21. Why? What is the point of that.

There's no reason to get married under the age of 25 IMO.

 

[MI]

Because they don’t want to commit Zina. Also, why wouldn’t you want to spend the best, healthiest and most formative years of your life with someone you love instead of when you’re old & getting older, tired and working a 9 to 5?

Somali girls living in baadiye get married at 15.

 

[Yasssmin.x]

Cuz they found someone they love. What other reason do you want?

I see many bitter eedos in there early to mid 30’s jealous of these dimes getting wifed up

I see the opposite, Somali girls getting married later

 

[Basra]

Because Halaal sex matters.

Right! who has money at that age? Unless the guy is 10 plus years older

Well, that sounds nice in theory but people change rapidly with age. They could inadvertently grow apart. Financially they are usually worse off as well. As for committing Zina, some of us just aren't wired to fornicate (too many risks and zero rewards long term). We're not all built the same and some have awesome powers of delayed gratification because they care more about their goals than the opposite sex.

As for what that guy said about 'bitterness'. That sounds cute, but there is no specialness from getting wifed when opportunities to be are innumerable. The question becomes is this potential' even right for you?

They wanna escape the hardlife through marriage, kids and welfare. They think that is easier.
Ambitious girl wont marry at that young age

Good point, when you get treated like a queen at home leaving so soon would seem like a trap. That's a brilliant deduction you've made.

Also the girls who marry so young are mostly dhoocilo who have no interest in university. They are from the street

No smart girl will marry that young
