Re: The innate pride of being ethnically Somali
Dear Yummymummy,
There are some social ills; but this is due to the "paradox of plenty". When you have material things, rights, good environment and equity, there is downside.
Suicide rates are relatively high; I think Finland and Sweden have high suicide rates. It is high in almost all developed countries.
Euthanasia is not allowed in Scandnavia. There is no science that supports the notion that child molestation is rampant in Scandnavia compared to other countries.
TV series should be watched with an ounce of sceptism.
I am not claiming that scandnavia is perfect but compared to other countries, it is the closet you can come to Utopia.
XimaanJimcaale, saaxib, size does matter indeed but when you account for that, scandnavia leads other countries by miles.

Re: The innate pride of being ethnically Somali
Despite having absolutely nothing to be proud off
we are still full of our selves.
I would rather this be our trait than the cuqdad afflicted with the others.
Thumbs up if you relish the opportunity to tell other you are Somali

Re: The innate pride of being ethnically Somali
Jasmine,
So how is it innate when the Somali sense of pride chiefly rises from the manner in which he/she was raised? Can a Somali raised in other society or by non-Somali still maintain this trait, simply by the blood that runs through his/her veins?...or did hyper already clarify this
Also, I think there's a bit of confusion between pride and dignity.. the balance between the 2 is easily disturbed.
