What about when the guys are the sole providers in families where there is an absence of father figures? Or for whatever reason he did not fulfill his duty as a father?

I think its a cultural idea that both genders remain in the house until they get married or decide to leave. Now I agree with salool that grown men who just walk around the house doing nothing should be kicked out but guys who work and go to school and contribute some money to the family should stay in the house because it is cheeper for them and they help out the family. Both parties benefit and not to forget that deserting a house and leaving only the women there is dangerous in case there is ever an incident involving guys.

I am glad I woke up one morning and decided to move away from family just to discover myself. I was only 20 at that time and after experiencing what it feels to wake up and have nothing to eat, I started to learn how to depend on myself and I haven't looked back since then. Now I am proud to support not only me but also my family

To equate the problem of the Somali male in the diaspora to parenting style is short-sighted. There are many parents who micromanage the affairs of their children and produce some of the most smartest people in the country. A good example is the Asian style of parenting. They are the single most succesfull ethnic group in the U.S.

Another style of parenting (which seems to have a lot of liking) is typified by the well-to-do Caucasian middle income family that allows their children to "discover" their identity & potential knowing full well they have a number of safety nets in case they screw up. In addition, majority of the people they will ever interact with look like them, share their views, and thus reinforce expectations.

and so you will see a white male student who parties the first 2 years of college, gets a number of "Ds" on his transcript, sobers up the last 2 years, does an internship somehow and ends up being hired by a local construction firm.


The Somali family cannot afford their children to "discover" themselves only to produce more gangster's, irreligious children with no sense of purpose. This is the pitfall of simplifying a complex situation and not knowing the layers of confounding variables that ultimately affect the outcome. The well-to-do family that allow their children to enroll in colleges, move into dorms, due this with parents likely having been graduated from college (so the expectations are high) as the well as the kids relatives.


As Professor Talo has mentioned before, the reason why Somali females have out-performed their counterparts lies in how the somali family views the two sexes. One is held to such a standard that it's viewed as a barometer for the families level of respect & honor. Hence girls are kept more in doors, not allowed to leave as freely as the boys, therefore more time to do homework, focus on school work and not be influenced by waves of hip & hop tunes flooding the hood.

The gap between the guys & girls can be simplified to the above, in essence keeping the girls in doors has allowed them to mature enough to finish high school, graduate from college, and now in trouble of not finding a somali male with the same level of education.

So their you have it, i know i am gifted 8-)







p.s. it has not left my attention that the above hypothesis offer's a mechanism by which a solution can be found to the catastrophe that is the Somali male in the diaspora

it doesn't take moving out to mature up. the posters on the first page got it right when they we're saying parents treat their sons like babies.
on the girls comment though, i can't picture a desperate o-plz-somone-marry-me type as most are pretty independent and think along the lines of 'i don't need a man'

Not everyone understands body count lol. The ones who understand what it means are avoiding it though :pac:

I think it is unfair to highlight just the girl's body count, it is as if us guys got a free pass for fock around like dogs then expect to wife up a virgin or a girl who has only been touched once, this doesn't mean girls should hoe some more. At the end of the day you get what you give, if you are a fataal, you will get a fataal just like yourself :up:

Most chicks with high body count either relocate to a new setting or marry an ajnabi to reset their community murder sheet but life of partying and having "fun" is not something easy to leave behind. With faraxs the biggest problem is lack of discipline, when u can't stay still to either read a book or do an assignment it's gonna be very difficult to succeed in school, go to any somali house and I dare u to find a designated area for "studying" instead u will see crying kids, house full of decoration material but no place to quietly study and get something done.
