    I personally know some strict Muslim families nearby and they will absolutely not accept this kind of behaviour mentality let alone this level of violence used 🥺,they said it was against Islam rules and not accepted at all, if anything it’s a cultural thing. I seen a father here so steeped in sorrow of his beloved son he has lost , as a father myself I cannot imagine what he is going through. No one should have to go through such grievances , may his son rest in peace and I solely express my condolences to the family ..amen 🤲🏻

    It struck me when the women wishing her sister a happy birthday said she was returned to the man for fear of shame brought to the family. The family should feel shame for FORCING their daughter into a dangerous marriage. They make me sick. This isn't the .....17th, 18th 19th century. Love your daughters enough to break this horrific senticing.

  • @firefeethok_tui2355

    People making you feel shameful about being divorced is the dynamic that has kept women in abusive marriage. The reason society keeps that stigma alive and functioning is to try to keep women in line. To all the divorces out there, hold your head up high, it was nothing but a piece of paper and a few words spoken by a man just like your neighbor. There is nothing divine about marriage. The symbolism attached to getting married is just that. It’s a symbol.

They tend to have Girlfriends outside of their religion. Hypocrites! Why are the Women treated so harshly? Enough is enough. So sad for the loss of your Son. 🙏🏽😢

  • @oldcollegecoed
    @oldcollegecoed 3 роки тому

    These are is the most horrific and tragic stories imaginable! As a parent, I cannot comprehend treating my child so cruelly! I want my child’s life to be better than mine, and no doctrine or ideology would induce me to betray my child’s love and trust and subject them to abuse. Unfortunately, the “honor systems” these beautiful, brave women were subjected are barbaric and archaic and have no place in the 21st century! So proud of all of these women for having the inner strength & determination to not just leave their spouse, but also leave knowing they will be abandoned by their entire family & friends.

  • @oldcollegecoed
    @oldcollegecoed 3 роки тому

    OMG! I am so very sorry for your devastating loss! As a mother, I simply can’t comprehend how any parent could turn their back on their child as a result of sexual orientation, something they have no control over. The “honor systems” these parents embrace are archaic and barbaric, but that is all they know. They have been brainwashed into the belief system which fears embarrassment and the loss of control of their child far more than it fears losing that child. It’s a senseless, tragic ideology which has no place in 21st century society. In truth, all parents should love their children without exception and the needs of their children should come first, and if they can’t live with those facts, they shouldn’t be allowed to be parents!

Please stop 🛑 So-called Honour killing! " Arrange marriage with full consent between adults is out of date within the Somali Community in the Diaspora.

I had to pretend to be his "friend" when his brother visited, we hid our photos, and despite us both trying, ultimately his shame drove a wedge between us. He couldn't consolidate our relationship while everyone told him - from his religion to his family and friends - it wasn't okay. So glad Matt is doing this tremendous work. Someone needs to.
