And like Lamagoodle mentioned,humour isnt the same for every culture.A joke between two Somalis might sound very silly to someone from another culture and vice versa.

I think you are assuming, like Lamagodle did, that all Somalis are the same and they are all different from non-Somalis. A Somali born and raised in America does not have the same sense of humour or sense of culture as a Somali born and raised in Xamar, heck people born and raised in Xamar don't have the same sense of humour and culture as those born and raised in Miyi. We're different, we're not a one size fits all people with identical language and culture.Beans wrote:Bv learning a language is not the same as being born into the culture it represents.While one will come across part of the traditions and such while learning the language,i think the one born into has a clear advantage.

This is all general assumptions.We mean in general aspect.No one is arguing that all Somalis have similar sense of humour or cultures but we cant also deny that there are lots of shared culture and tradition.It can be s specific type of food,a folk tale passed on,a well known joke e.t.c.BlackVelvet wrote:Somali racism towards other black Muslims disgusts me.
