I've never seen my mom wear the traditional guntiino...in fact, I only learned it last year. I've only worn diracs to Somali weddings. It's sad because Somalis stole the Diracs for the Yemenis/Persians. We completely lost our culture! SMH. Sometimes I ask why Allah made me a Somali!

You need to stop this self-hate. Be proud of who you are. Being somali is a blessing.
To answer your question, no I have never seen my mom wear it. But she used to wear it back in the days from some pics I have seen.
I think they look way cuter, traditional and classier than dirac. We need to bring it back :up: .

"Sometimes I ask why Allah made me a Somali!".... I just had to advice her to be proud of herself.
"Have you ever seen your mother wear the guuntino". I think I answered the question.
The last part is just my personal view on the dirac\guntino. I am entitled to my own opinion. If I misunderstood it, then my bad. :up:
