American women vs Arab women raising children

[Ban Hammer 13,345]

in a thread about how crappy it is for this woman s&s knows to say a bunch of garbage about american women, it's equally ####### for anyone to turn around and say this kind of stuff. i don't see how any reasonable person can "crack up" over it. not that this kind of rubbish isn't par for the course around here.

Please explain, I am sooooooooooooooooo confused I ride the short bus.

hey scoot over, quit taking up so much of the seat!

The OP is basically a compaint, justified imho, that someone was bashing Americans, but the point above is that in turn bashing Arabs not only doesn't solve the problem it's doing the same thing as the woman in the OP did. It's not really funny either. Was the woman wrong? Of course! Should the OP have to apologize merely due to her age? Oh heck no! Is it justified to bash all Arabs because of this one ignoramus? Oh heck no!

That's it in a nutshell I think.

"You dont see ANY imaginative discovery or inventions coming out of the arab world right now. Its not like the ALL ABOUT ME arabic culture where people become slaves to THEIR INTERPRETAION OF RELIGION. They cant sit around on their flabby asses pointing out the faults in others. their lack of personailty, independence, their pettiness and materialism and lack of ANY KIND OF INTELLECTUAL capacity"

I agree!

congratulations, you officially have no sense of humor. because according to morocco4ever, this material is a real laugh riot.

I think I can shed some light on the subject. Ta me whosit has a problem with me on the expats forum. Now she is bringing it here. Her response was addressed to my comment that I made that Kat cracked me up. The problem is that she misenterpreted what I was laughing about. The part of Kat's post that made me laugh was this:

"Oh and every body , please forgive me. I am in grieving. Tell the Iraqi that when I am strangling her Syrian friend"

I was glad to see that despite all that Kat is going through that she is finding her sense of humor.

Sorry that you guys got dragged into our mess, and that it took over the thread.

Right on, Sister!!!!! More power to you!!!!

That Syrian woman opened the can of worms by making generalizations in the first place. Secondly, she showed a lot of insensitivity by saying, "you don't have any children, how would you know how to raise one?" Like you said, you may not have borne a child, but growing up you had some exposure (as we all have to growing up in households with babies).

I really don't see why this Syrian woman thought you were rude (and became tearful) because you refused to stand there and listen to her #######.

this had nothing to do with expats rubbish. if that was the comment you meant specifically, then you should have said so 2 pages ago instead of making comments about pissy cheerios. because the rest of what wahrania said was so offensive, it needed to be specified. not that any of that detracts from the wrongness of her other comments.

I don't think anyone else had an issue with my amusement so why explain? Perhaps you should have asked first before you jumped all over it. As stated before, to assume makes an (a$$) out of (u) and (me).

Now for that group hug!!

No need to be sorry, just get high and laugh at the whole thing, cause tomorrow may not come for some of us. Life is too damn short to sweat the small stuff, and believe me girl this is just small stuff. Plus it gets my mind off the things that I do really need to sweat
