Response to Lisa---Cultural appeasement

Submitted by Straight_Talk_Luigi (United States), Jun 18, 2009 at 21:12

I should known better than to think that you would actually reply tactfully. Then again, you were more worried about Simo than your daughter when she was sick, so I guess I should not be surprised.

My relationship has nothing to do with Margaret.. Believe me, Maragret does not control if I have a good marriage or not,lol....

Neither do, it seems. You've been brainwashed into thinking that Moroccan culture is superior and you now hate men from other countries simply because one American guy hurt you. That's what all this bickering is about and it's why you even married Simo, isn't it?

Ironic, really. That you never would have met this Moroccan man if things had worked out with your last husband. Too bad they didn't. It sure would have saved me the trouble.

margaret simply writes things not exactly related to Morocco or all of its origins or the men. She attacks all of this culture and it is evident she does not like their culture or the men.

Well, now, maybe she feels the same way you do American men. Regardless, what she says has accuracy.

It is clear she would be considered racists against this culture for many reasons and one being their religion is not the same as hers.

Oh, certainly! All those who dare to oppose the mighty Moroccan culture are racists!!! Um, what race is Moroccan again, because you see, Lisa, under the current classification, it's predominately Caucasian.

Also she should not be attacking me or my husband with her silly insinuations or slander all of this culture of men...

It's not slander, and how was that post even directed at your specific situation?? Did Simo read it and start crying or something?

and she should expect to be corrected by ones she attacks, so I am not attacking margaret

Yes, you are. Slander? You're basically accusing her of committing a crime!

but she has me and I didn't see you posting in my defense when I have seen actual birth certificates of all his sisters but how many times have you seen her post his sister is his wife and over and over again she she makes this same statement to everyone......

LOL....wow, you expect me to defend your man's culture and your "marriage"!

First of Lisa, let me be very clear:

1) If you converted from Christianity to Islam, I do NOT support that at all. Have fun explaining that to Jesus on Judgement Day....oh, well, you see, it's just that this man was so handsome...

2) You may have convinced others, like Isis and Lina previously, and Linda (USA) that is real by posting links to myspace and writing long, incoherent, angry, tiresome essays about how wonderful your man is, but the difference is, Lisa, I see through all that nonsense

3) Despite the fact that you are married, Lisa, I don't think you truly love Simo or trust him. I would gather he feels the same about you and your children.

4) Birth certificates mean NOTHING. nada. zip. And I suppose they were all translated in English just for you? Or do you know the language in Morocco now??

....she just needs to quit stretching the facts .... It doesn't matter what Lina wrote about Moroccans being abusive.

Well, considering the fact that she is FROM Morocco, I think it does matter!

Again, doesn't mean all these men are abusive cause Lina might have witnessed an incident or two...again, these men are human just like americans or any red blooded man. Its depends on an individual's character and personality how they interact with another person if they choose to hit their woman or kids. If they are abusive during your relationship and controlling, expect them not to change once married. Ladies simply stay away from this type of man no matter of the culture. Its in all cultures plain and simple and you need to be smart...

Luigi it is also my perogative to defend whatever I see is wrong in my opinion or what Maragret choices to write that is based on false grounds especially concerning accusations about my husband she knows absolutely nothing about.

Well, Lisa, she probably knows than you think. You have been by far and away the most open about your relationship, largely for all the wrong reasons, but you've given us plenty of information.

And no one said your husband was abusive.

And yes, Lisa, you can defend whatever you want on here, Just keep in mind that it always reflects poorly on you and were I women in a relationship with a Muslim, I would wonder:

1) Why is she on here when she supposedly has this wonderful family and man

2) Why is she so angry?

If you don't like what I have to say or me defending some of these preople, too bad.

Too bad? For who? me or you? I could never post on here again and lose nothing.

They are my family and I respect them.

I can only wonder how they feel about you.

here are many good men and women there and I don't appreciate being attacked by margaret with her same ole' falsely accused statements.

Actually, I've found Margaret's information to be useful, just not politically correct, which is a great thing.

I did not say the quaran did not say its ok to beat your wife and yes if last resort...but maragret has a tendacy to overexagerate and make it sound like all these men will do this cause its not true just like not all will take 2 or 4 wives....again a choice....

She tries to scare people instead of just stating what could happen if you meet an abusive controlling man

No, she's not scaring anyone, and if you are scared, it tells me in volumes you don't trust your man---much less than I originally suspected.

and not all these men have these qualities.

So? Doesn't mean the relationship is for real

Some are very caring and lovable and I am saying this based on many friends young and old I met of my husbands and how they talked nothing but good about their wife and family and had good characteristics and morals...

Talk is cheap.

and at least two was in love with women from other countries Spain and UK and it was evident they truly loved these women and it wasn't about a visa..

You really expect me to beleive that? I jhave every reason to think that what you have is fake, and I can clearly tell your marraige is not like other married couples I know where they trust each other.

..I just hate seeing people who post stay away from these men when some are good and its just not fair to the sincere ones.

This blog is not about sincere men because women who date sincere men and truly feel good about it don't need to scour the internet and defend his culture/religion/age/maturity or whatever!

Sorry if you don't like what I have to say, but i will say my peace as long as it gets posted..and I too post according to my experiences and not what I read on the net...

The only thing I'm sorry about is that you are under the dominion of this man of yours for all the wrong reasons. You can pull the "I'm a tough Southern girl" act all you want, Lisa, but I've been around too long to be fooled by these long essays.

.If i would have listened to what all I read on this board or net and believed it, my throat would be cut, Beaten, spit on, sold as sex slave, drugged, hated on,....you name it,lol and its simply not the case

Probably not, Lisa. as I have said many times, those scenarios are rare. It usually just amounts to one heck of an emotional and financial headache.

In fact, with the exception of Craiglists, on-line encounters are more dangerous for men than women.
