Scootch over; you're hogging up too much of the island.
To set things strait:

No, I am not a feminist-Nazi. I abandoned the Amazonian warrior attitude at….

Well, a very long time ago. I was such a dork, back then. =X


I used the term “baby factory”, a derogatory term towards women, because it seems the type of women guys with that mind frame marry never had an original thought in their head, and aren’t in any danger of doing so, because they are the kind that follow their father/brothers/husband/version of religion taught to them blindly and without question.

In that manner, the women are pretty stupid. Oh, they could be brilliant acedemicly, as excelling with math and science runs very very heavy on my dad’s side of the family (And it skipped me! How could it have skipped me?!? *mild agony*)

In current day, the more “modern” guys let/encourage their daughters *cough* or nieces *cough* to go to college, earn some degrees, have a career for a year or two, then they are expected to settle fast for a good Muslim guy. Love isn’t a requirement for marriage; I’ve been told that by quite a few people.

Like my conservative aunt. In various speechings/talks, she’s told me that the only two important questions the girl should ask the guy is if he follows the 5 pillars of Islam, and if he smokes. If the first one is yes and the second one no, then there shouldn’t be any problem in me marrying him.

Aleia: What if he doesn’t want kids, and I do?

Aunt: It’s his will, his choice. You have to follow it.

Aleia: What if he wont let me keep my friends? What if he expects me to stay home all day, cleaning, cooking and sewing? And I’m only given a strict tight allowance for grocery shopping?

Aunt: If he feels it’s important, then he will let you do it. All decisions are up to him.


I wash my hands of the whole situation, because it’s extremely hopeless/pathetic on all different levels.

I mean, if I have kids, I plan on being a stay at home mom till the littlest one is in school. Secretly, I kinda look forward to that, being a stay at home mom =X

But I really don’t like the idea of being tied home. I would want to take my kids outside sometimes, yeah? And contrary to my uncle, my idea of fun isn’t grocery shopping. <.<

And…I don’t very much like the idea of asking permission from my husband, to do/buy anything. Not that I should be able to buy anything I want whenever, but especially if it’s the money that he is earning…

I mean, if I had a job and he had a job, some of the money from both of us would go towards bills and huge purchases.

Eh. I guess I mean to say is that I don’t like the idea of being like a 5 year old with a 50-cent allowance, and needing one quarter more to buy something small for themselves.


*Looks at time*


Gotta finish 4 English projects. >.<

English projects = Painful. I don’t know why, but it’s hard to force myself to do them. =X


Edit: My cramps are so very much overwhelming me in constant persistence-ness right now ;_;
