     | Thursday, January 11, 2001 - 04:29 pm Once upon a time, there lived a women named Amina and her daughter, Jamila. One day, Amina was on her way to the market when she passed the store of Osman. On the window of his shop, Osman put a sign which read : "Men are created smarter than women". Amina could not believe Osman would put up such a sign, so she entered the store to complain. "Excuse me, but surely you know the sign is not true!" asked Amina. "Oh yes, it is indeed true. Men are smarter than women. You women are good at having children but leave the important matters to us." Osman confidently assured. "If you don't take down that sign by tomorrow, you'll be sorry." Amina warned. "Ha ha ha!" laughed Osman, " What could you possibly do, you're just a woman!". "You'll see just how smart we women are!" On her way home, she began thinking of the best way to teach Osman a lesson. As she passed the palace of King Hassan, the idea came in a flash. She rushed home to tell her daughter, Jamila, about her brilliant plan. The next day, Jamila entered Osman's shop on a mission of which he knew nothing. Already a beautiful girl, she had on her best clothes and perfume. Osman, who had never met Jamila, wondered who this mysterious lady was. She purchased a couple of items and engaged in small conversation with Osman. On her third visit to his store, Osman finally asked who she was. "I am Sulekha, daughter of King Hassan." Jamila exclaimed. "Impossible! The King's daughter is paralyzed and he never lets her out of the palace." "That is what my father wants everyone in the kingdom to think. He wanted to protect me from men who want to marry me for only for my beauty and wealth." "I would like to marry you for who you are Sulekha. Is that possible?" "Oh yes, it is possible, but you have to follow my instructions carefully." "Anything for you Sulekha" promised Osman. Jamila went on to explain to Osman that when he went to the palace to ask for her, he must act as if he thinks she is paralyzed. That way, she assured, the King will assume Osman wants her for reasons of love. The next day, Osman rushed to seek an audience with King Hassan. After a long wait, he was finally ushered into the King's office. "Your highness, it is with great respect that I come to ask for your daughter." "Are you willing to marry my daughter, even with her condition? asked the King. "Yes, I do. I will to take care of her and give her all that she asks." Osman promised. "Very well, the wedding ceremony will take place in one weeks time." In preparation for the wedding, Osman spent the next week purchasing all types of silks and fabric. Eagerly awaiting the arrival of his young bride, he ordered his first wife to move into the smaller room to be shared with their small children. He even suggested she move in with her mother for some time. After the wedding ceremony, Osman was taken to the princess' room where he was told his new bride was waiting for him. He saw Sulekha sitting on the bed draped in a beautiful veil. When he lifted the veil, to his surprise he saw the face of a woman, paralyzed, who he had never met. "Who are you? Where is Sulekha?" shouted Osman. "What are you talking about? I am Sulekha." cried the princess, who was now very distraught. Osman realized he had been deceived and was now stuck in a very difficult position. He could not go to the King and ask for a divorce, that might result in jail time or worse. So he told his new bride he had to go and prepare the house for her arrival. He left and went directly to his house to ponder a way out of this situation. Then a knock came at his door. When he opened it, he saw Amina and Jamila. "How could you do something like this to me?" cried Osman. "I did warn you about taking down that sign, and you ignored me." Amina explained. "You have to get me out of this marriage!" Osman demanded. "If men are so much smarter than women, then why are you asking me for help?" Osman stubbornly refused to acknowledge that men are not smarter than women, so Amina and Jamila left his house. He asked for advice from some of his friends and no one could come up with a solution. Several days later, Osman ran into Amina and Jamila in town center. He begged Amina to help him find a way out of his predicament. She agreed to help him, with the following demands: "Before we help you, you must permanently take down your sign and for one week, replace it with another sign stating woman are smarter than men" explained Amina. "Anything. I'll do anything" pleaded Osman. Following Amina's advice, Osman opened a haircut parlor for men in his store. Soon, it got back to the King that his son-in law was now a haircutter. He called Osman to the palace right away. "I thought you owned a shop in town?" asked the King. "I do, but now I have decided to become a haircutter." "You can't be a hair cutter and be married to my daughter. I want you to divorce my daughter at once!" In an instant, Osman was a free man. He took down his sign and never again doubted the intelligence of women.

| | Thursday, January 11, 2001 - 05:45 pm to ghetto girl if u r not joking look back see if those behind the knowledge that we have today on this planet has a name equal to monica lewinsky!! then take from there ur question is answered.

| | Thursday, January 11, 2001 - 06:09 pm I don't even have too look back for information your writing structure says it all. You can't start a sentence without a Capital what's wrong with you! Your getting off topic here as well... what the hell does Monica Lewinsky have to do with this? Monica Lewinsky was a slut bottom line. If you want some names of smart women here they are Oprah,Barbara Walters,Diana Sawyer,Connie Chang,Madeline Albright,Hilary Rodam Clinton, and the list just goes on. Compared to Somali Men these women make them look like preschoolers. Look the moral of the story is "don't judge a book by it's cover". Not all but most Somali Men have ego's are tribalistic not to mention Sexist. As a matter of fact they have no Morals or Manners!.They are inconsiderate being's who can't take care of themselves. Since Somali men have done nothing for themselves they turned into complete zombies entirely depending on women.

| | Friday, January 12, 2001 - 03:20 am Smartness is a relative issue. BTW, I am a female, but how i interpret your story is the two females were wicked not smart!!!
|
| | Friday, January 12, 2001 - 03:39 am This belongs in the story section. Why? There is only 6 SMART women in your list, over 6 billion WOW
|
| | Saturday, January 13, 2001 - 12:24 am your hatred n bias towards your fellow somalimen is enough testimony for me to believe that you are not a intellegent woman yourself......you are trying to promote equality while at same time putting down half of own your race aka somalimen.....iam somali female.....i do fight for my rights by making those around to accept me for who iam.....not by cursing or defaming them.
|
| | Saturday, January 13, 2001 - 10:10 pm Ghetto I've heard it b4 and it amazed me to no ends. I laughed at the utter evilness and deceit behind it but I must say Osman was warned. LOL Keep it up and pay no heed to haters. GUYS GUYS GUYS Atleast the story had a moral background and a punchline. By attacking the girl in a disgustful manner will never prove that men are smarter aight....So keep your Macwis' on Peace
|
| | Saturday, January 13, 2001 - 11:22 pm its true that women can fail men and put them to their knees but is that anything to do with cleverness???I dont think so..its only somekind of strength that god granted women..she can seduce man of any kind.even if he is wadaad. there is a versus in the quran says:inna keidahunna cadeem.....in other word "sir naageed lama salgaari karo"......

| | Tuesday, January 16, 2001 - 11:39 am i agree with you honestgirl
|
| | Tuesday, January 16, 2001 - 03:48 pm First of all I would like to Say Asalamu Alykum,Secondly I would like to comment on Honest Girl's remark. HonestGirl You should change your name before your called a hypocrite... Oprah and Hillary not smart?You've got to be kidding me!"Honestly" speaking I myself don't think you could match up to their intelligence nevertheless their money! Don't take it as a Diss because that's not what I intended to be. Here's a list of thing's Oprah is known for being aside from a talkshow host Oprah Winfrey,actress, producer, philanthropist, and businesswoman, is the chairman of HARPO Entertainment Group in Chicago. Now you mean to tell me that you could accomplish all that in one life time LoL I think not."The Oprah Winfrey Show," the highest-rated talk show in television history, is seen by 15 to 20 million viewers a day in the United States and is in 132 countries. Since entering syndication in 1986,"The Oprah Winfrey Show" has remained the number one talk show for ten consecutive seasons, receiving 25 Emmys -- six of which went to the host.At the end of the 1995/96 television season, Oprah was honored with the most prestigious award in broadcasting, the George Foster Peabody's Individual Achievement Award. Oprah also received the IRTS Gold Medal Award, and was recognized by Time Magazine as one of "America's 25 Most Influential People of 1996". She has completely changed the way we view "day time television" forever. Now to answer your silly remark or shall I say cheapshot... It's true Oprah is not currently in a marriage but...she has been seeing Stedmon for over 12 year's and I think that's about as faithful as anyone can get... having said that now ask yourself was that really any of your business?Still thinking?Another thing I would just like to shed some light on " the lady is so scared of men she never wants to get married" Do you seriously want me to comment on that outrageous not to mention stupid remark LoL. To the rest of you guys: I could tell that most of you are suffering from a disease known as "Illiteracy". It was just a story for chirst's sake  ... It's true no sex is smarter then the other but... nah I don't want to get into this you guy's probably wouldn't understand LoL. To T-Girl I'm glad you enjoyed the story so much I'll try to send you a copy of my other novels LoL. I wonder what Kramer would think of the story LoL. Sagittarius is a prime example of what I wrote in my above comment to PURE SOMALI. By any chance are you and Osman Related LoL. My mother once told me "If you can't beat em' join em' On a further note I would just like to add That Somali Men Make me sick and I hope they all Rot In hell LoL There I think that about does it. (Trumpets Sound Off) Let Mortal Combat (QAXOOTI COMBAT) Begin.

| | Wednesday, January 17, 2001 - 05:36 am Actually, i like that story, However, this doesn't proof our intellegence in realtion to men.. but that we have more wit and more conifing, i am not sure weather i like that or not.. My conclusions of this story is that Women : think with their heads and Men on the other hand: think with that crusty little thang between their leggs.. (brothers please don't shoot- it is a joke- kaftan) Seriously though, i don't know how far we can carry this men are smarter then women or vice versa discussion we just ain't gonna get anywhere!! I don't think that your intelligence or IQ is at all determined by gender. It is a proofen fact, that men and women are different so why are we trying to make comparisons? More importantly wat is the point? (The way i c it they are from venus we from mars.. Lets just keep it at that). Gettogirl, all due respect sis and i can see where your argument is coming from.. but i must say that i was VERY dispointed with your list of smart women. In my view these are confused, kaafir, women who are pupets of western "civilisation". I mean come on What happened to Aaisha bit abu baker, Faatimah, Um Suleim... Smart women who (guess wat) educated men n women alike.. But.. Oprah (sis i am not gonna even go there). P.S You seem to have an issue with da brothers- Do you wanna discuss. PPs. I aint havin a go at ya, my sis just expresin opinion.. so lets keep it sweet aight. Love, peace and happines.
|
| | Wednesday, January 17, 2001 - 06:07 am As far as somali men and women are concerned- they are both low in EQ and IQ. Case closed.
|
| | Wednesday, January 17, 2001 - 07:15 am Ghetto girl.....if by any chance sistah u got sense......u would understand what i meant by Oprah and Mrs. Clinton not being smart.....we r freakin' somaliis for god's sake......We r Muslims.......do we give a $hit what oprah or hillary do for thier lives.......do we care if they r smart or not.....do we care if they r the scum of earth......HELL NO.......and i would not in million years even dream to have what oprah has......simply cuz i dont WANT it.......and if u miss thang dont consider me smart.......WHO CARES......i consider myself smart.....at least smarter than YOU.......cuz i dont come up with such stupid title for a story that has absolutely nothing to do with smartness in matters of gender...... So next time.....before u start bullshittin' me and giving me lessons on dump a$$ oprah.....and remember i am ur somali sistah.....qasban canik......think twice.........aight!!!! What eva u said about our somali brothaz must show u how low u r girl........lets not even go there now........cuz i believe u got class....and i got class......and i would certainly not go down sweety.....so peace aight And sweety........i think i saw somethin' like Chris's Sake..........aaaaaaaaah..... get ur self straightened girl.....thats all ama say!!! Amina..........thats what i was tryin' say......but i could neva have said it any better than u have girl!!!! Much luv to all especially the -QAXOOTI- brothaz

| | Wednesday, January 17, 2001 - 08:13 am Honestgirl..you are one fucking hypocrite please change your name bitch with two faces or should I say seven, you excatly know what am I talking about. Warning: don't you even open your mouth coz ama gonna reveal ONE BIG SECRET lol guess what is it? GhettoGirl.. low life woman, tell me have you been dumbed by your somali boyfriend? and you taking revenge by opening your filthy mouth, GET A LIFE
|
| | Wednesday, January 17, 2001 - 09:12 am Truth I agree with you on one thing but totally disagree on the other "tell me have you been dumbed by your Somali boyfriend? and you taking revenge by opening your filthy mouth, GET A LIFE " loooool A Somali Guy dump me come on you've got to be kidding me. I would just like to make it clear that my current boyfriend is Somali and I love him dear... I did not in any manner critsize All Somali men I was just brushing upon the so many other's who are lost and astray....Secondly I would just like to say to HonestGirl(Hypocrite) that Intelligence has nothing to do with religion so you need to go look back in your dictionary.... Oh and I'm aware of what I wrote "Christ sake" for those of you who didn't that's something called an expression...It's funny how you pick out small little detail's and use it as a cheap shot against me Remember I said Asalamu Alykum first!!!!!!!!!!!!. Amina: Aren't you doing some generalizing yourself "Women think with their heads and Men on the other hand: think with that crusty little thang between their leggs.. (brothers please don't shoot- it is a joke- kaftan)" hmmmm you people be the judge. "It's true no sex is smarter then the other " that is one of the statements' that I made above in my earlier comment's but I guess you guy's didn't seem to catch it because you all (except T-Girl & Basra) were too busy critisizing me.
|
| | Wednesday, January 17, 2001 - 11:33 am Truth........and what could that big secret be.......hmmmmm????!!!!! i am DYING to know dear!! Ghettogirl.........dont generlize now girl.......if u go back to what i said in the first time.....i was not critisizing u.....i was just tellin' u what i thought of Oprah...and Hillary......so if u just told me that i was wrong.....and i would not have denied it.....i could have just shut my big mouth.......but look at who started disrespecting and actin' like a kid!............if u really wanna know why pple r critisizing u........read the subject of ur topic again.............  And i would luv to understand why da hell am i being called a hypocrite!!!!!!!??????????
|
| | Wednesday, January 17, 2001 - 11:50 am The only reason why I titled my topic that was to grab people's attention and I have succeeded doing so... Besides Osman's Lesson sound's too dull don't you think
|

|
| | Thursday, January 18, 2001 - 05:07 am Gettogirl, sis like i said in the very same quote that u took of me that it was a joke.. kaftan.. and that i was not 4 real. I thought i made that obvious, but i guess i didn't delivery it well (my bad). Anyways that was't all I said and i don't understand why you only picked that bit out for comment.. I don't really wanna start an arguemt with you sis, so lets just leave it aight.. You have obviously misunderstood what angel i was coming from.. Just because I disagree with ya on a minor issue does not mean that I are getting critical or judging YOU (hell i don't even know ya). Its what you wrote and not you that i was criticising.. Honestgirl.. thanks 4 da comment sis.. EaZy Now Peace, Love and Happiness

| | Friday, January 19, 2001 - 07:26 pm Ghetogirl, I don't know the gentleman you mentioned! If you were trying to provoke me, I am better than that. I believe some psycho-therapy would help in your case, you can hate all Somali men, that's fine! But to display your anger in this public forums just aggravates your psyche condition. Ghetogirl, I think the name explains a little a bit about yourself "rebel without cause" You may wage any war you want, but still there are Somali women unlike you who love us and whom we love in return. So, I am afraid your message didn't get through....God help Keep on the good job!!

| | Saturday, January 20, 2001 - 04:00 am Now now KIDS.......Let auntie Troublegirl be your typical JUDGE JUDY 4 a day aight? Ghetto I agree with the OPRAH bit sister coz I look upto the woman myself.The woman is a pioneer and one of a kind. Regardless of what she went through she has evidently made a mark in her lifetime and proves to have paved a way for all the women who think they R under-achievers. But Hillary I don't like. She is not only a weak and pathetic excuse for a woman but she sets a bad example to everyone who looks up2 her.....Well so far Chelsea is the only fan she got. And it is so obvious why she ran for senate in NY. She just wanted to prove her space in the world and she thinks she made her point. All she proved is that she is non-strategic and lacks self worth. Honest Girl I ain't taking sides here but you guys should agree to disagree and be women enough to accept each others differences, without foul language or any kind of put downs. And remember sweety everyone is entitled to an opinion. Now smile......LOL...That's like a good girl.... LATER

| | Sunday, January 21, 2001 - 11:48 am All I know is that stupidest guy is smarter than GGirl. GhettoGirl, so called because she is a moral, economic and intellectual wasteland. Kaadida iyo xaarka iskama tirtirto. If you sit next to her you will be knocked out by noxious smells emanating from her blowjob-accustomed mouth and purulent, yeast-infected lower regions. On a lighter note have you heard what Hillary Clit-on thinks on social issues, this great feeling liberal: A Friend of CounterPunch was recently traveling in a limo from Baltimore to a town in West Virginia and fell into conversation with the driver, who related some of his ferryings to and fro of various bigwigs. One of these was Hillary Clinton. "An ornery woman," the driver commented. "And what a mouth on her!" The driver went on to describe an occasion on which he was driving the First Lady and a couple of her (female)friends through a poor area of Washington DC. They passed a beggar, and as they did so the First Lady expressed her disgust for the mendicant, adding "He wouldn't be a bum if he had a piece of ass." The driver was able to shed no light on how or why she had arrived at this conclusion, stunned as he was by the coarse nature of her observations. Then they passed two young black women with babies. "There go two welfare cases. They make me sick. They're too lazy to work", said Senator Clinton, champion of mothers and children everywhere. And then how about this bit: Bill on Al Attending the annual Texas Monthly bash, George W was asked what he and Bill Clinton had talked about in their White House photo op. George W described how he had askede Clinton why Al Gore was taking his defeat with such poor grace. "It's been eight years," Clinton genially replied, "and we still haven't figured out Al." Bill added hastily: "But he's been a great vice president

| | Wednesday, January 24, 2001 - 09:51 am MEN ARE FROM MARS,WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS. In the early eighties, some people were still getting upset with me, misinterpreting and misunderstanding what i had to say.ofjust could not comprehend the nation that men and women were different and that both were equally good.In their minds,if men and women were different,one had to be superior.Since I am a man, people assumed I was saying men were better than women.Gradually, during the course of fifteen years, the ideas in MEN ARE FROM MARS,WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS have been accepted as common sense not only in one country, but around the world.This sort of shift is comprehension is global.
