[quote="Alluring"]Futhermore, I've never proclaimed to be a feminist. I believe that woman are capable of doing equal or great things in comparison with men.
I have the right as an individual to dislike or oppose things. It is with you to read what I write or to look away. I stand true to who I am, I will NEVER sway my views or sugar code information. I am not anyone's mother![/quote]
But isn't that basic definton of feminism at least as explained to me by others, someone who advocates that "women are capable of doing, equal or great things in comparison with men" is a feminist.
And will you stop being so defensive, I don't have the authority to take away your right to vomit hate on the internet.
I'm just giving you some advice, if you want people to treat you as an equal and take you seriously have the courtesy to do the same for others.
Feminism is having at times an extreme point of view on social constructions in regard to gender based ideas. If an individual, like myself a woman feels that she is competent of having equal or greater success that has to do with a personal affiliation. So, saying that women can achieve triumph, all of sudden has to be given a label? Ridiculous to say the least!
You are regurgitating nonsense, why would I get defensive over individuals on the internet? In order to do that I must take you into consideration, which in reality....I don't.

I'm not qualified to defend feminism, but it seems we're talking about different things. Your talking about the evolution of feminsm to radical feminism and I'm talking about the core of feminsim before all the bra burning and misandry. I hate exremists whether they're feminist, religious or otherwise but every group of people has rational people among them.
Read the history of feminism at least in the west, because not too long ago women were not considered "competent of having equal or greater success" hence the need for the feminist movement.
Individuals have biases, my views are out in the open, hyperactive. Your views from what are read extreme and harsh. So do not come here and play the role of "Mother Theresa". I am content with feeling that mixing with other races, is wrong and should not be accept in the Somali community.
Our population is small, if we continue to live this life of "Oh, let marry this and that" we will lose our identity!
Our elders would be proud of what I say and believe in.
Wallahi, Majeerteen's have a lot of hatred towards them. Bismillah.
No one opposes anything, anyone else has to say here. But as soon as the MJ female says anything, there come the water works.
"Please don't talk about Bantus"
When you call each other names far worse, and far hurtful. But hey, you all are Somalis at the end of the day. Killing each other, and when some old man befriends his enemies who put him in jail for 6 years, tries to stand up what is left of Somalia. Its "Please let the ol' dude die."
WHERE HAVE THE REAL SOMALIS GONE? Oh yeah, they are dead.
