This topic has been bothering me since I hit 9 and I had to wear Hejab. The book of forbids have been opened telling the story of "the army of DON'Ts" whom incarcerated my life and turn it into hell. Why?! Give me a reason for the Don't do that?! or don't go there?! or don't play with the boys? be A NORMAL HUMAN BEING, be A GIRL, be A NORMAL GIRL . The answer is always the same: cause people will talk bad of you :S. Well, I don't care for what those people think of me and their replay is always the same: girls form respected families don't say that and it's another DON'T.
If only I can meet those people….
Haven't you ever wonder if those people who will talk are the same people who will talk about your sister, mom, or friends if they committed a social DON'T. Or ever thought, why no one stop them, isn't bad to talk about people behind their back. That assuming they know you but if they don't , what give them the right to judge you. Why they are not brave enough to ,at least, say it to my face :@.
Finally….
The argument either start or end by" girls from good families or let's say Banat Al7maile", what if I wasn't one of those girls, will it be OK to be myself….
It's a post out of frustration that's why it's short. I'm still holding a lot inside, may be I will write more later :( .
first of all, the new template is awesome (Y)
ReplyDeletesecond of all, i love this post and unlike u when i'm angry i write till my fingers hurt :p
but i agree with every word u said. unfortunately u can't do anything but ignore. especially with hidden mouths there isn't much to do :)
i mean in the end, it's not that they'll talk, it's that they'll always find something to talk about!!!
Good,,,

Talking about people behind their backs is a very old bad habit in our Arabic society . unfortunetly we can't do any thing about it , and in almost every family u can found a special gp of women which their job is just to spread right and wrong stories about other ppl , and they even envent stories from their immagination just to talk.Without thinking about the amount of damage that they done, or how many ppl they hurt.
