Why do so many Somali women study useless degrees and go into debt for it?

Why do so many Somali men don’t even get a degree and are perpetually broke?
Stop trying to push a narrative that doesn’t exist.

I know a somali guy who was valedictorian in middle school and high school and is averaging high 80s in neurology, my cousin has been in honours every year of highschool and just finished his degree in pharmaceuticals and landed a job. Most Somali girls I know get a basic degree only to marry someone and not work again.

This is why White people and Jews produce the most public intellectuals while Indians and East Asians produce no cultural/thought leaders. Ever noticed? The latter group doesn't study arts.
Eh the flowers of those Chinese and Indian stem degrees are starting to bloom. Silicon valley and every elite institution is filled with them.

Public intellectuals serve no value besides being propaganda peddlers.

There should be a balance between the arts and stem. If groups go too much into stem only you get weird societies like China.

Let's not compete between Somali men and women.

A fraction of Somali men do well, in general Somali girls do better.

I was referring to the Somalis with a good degree. But of course there’s plenty of Somalis as taxi drivers in Europe and in the US/Canada.

We have to change that mentality and be more ambitious.
 
You dont need a piece of paper which signifies your ability to be a slave for some illiterate CEO of a million dollar company to make laacag.

The curriculum/system is geared towards you becoming a tax slave.
