Egypt section: Can you believe this?

well, if she is very beautiful i would offer 5 camels, lool :D :P

who will make a higher bid ? lool :D

note: guys, the deal only with camels, no horses or dogs or any thing like this, lool :D

by the way, i saw worse questions, but definitely that was very funny to read as the first thing in the morning, lool :P

You know what... the *way* they asked the question is antagonistic, but it's a genuine problem.

I'm a westerner married to an Egyptian with 5 kids. The kids all look different, but I have a REAL problem with people telling my girls that "One looks prettier than the other because this one has blonde hair and is "white" and the other is more tan as has darker hair"

What a HORRIBLE thing to tell a small child! Even her KINDERGARTEN teacher told her something along these lines to her face. WHAT BENEFIT would ANY adult get out of belittling a small child (she was 4) and making her feel inferior for the way God made her? These thoughtless, boneheaded comments really affect her and I'm constantly trying to divert her attention from it but it's an uphill battle. All I'd like to know is WHY.

I've also seen a lot of racism here directed towards Sudanese and darker folks. Lots of african americans complain about rude treatment until they open their mouths and people hear english coming out.

*Not* talking about it isn't going to make it OK or nonexistent. Egyptian/muslim/ folks from the moon- it doesn't matter. This kind of stuff isn't OK and it needs to be adressed.

Cool down folks, the way i read it - it was meant as a joke, not to be meant a slur on Egypt. Just remember that there are many uneducated people out there who do not know how to put a sentence together without it sounding wrong, they do not always do it on purpose to make you feel bad. (some do i know).

Are you being a bit too sensitive, where no deliberate offence was meant.

ps. I have answered the question too if you want to read it.

Once a Swedish friend told me a girl he knew went to Egypt and some guy offered 20 camels for her father in order to marry her, he was like "What can I do with 20 camels in Sweden?", an I replied to that question.

Honestly.. when people ask obviously stupid questions that is supposedly automatically known or if they don't they CAN google it! it's not hard... i don't understand why people would come out their right mind and ask insulting or stupid questions... that would be as if we posted a question about her nationality or if someone talked about her on here. she needs to start having respect for other people and her self cause right now she's making herself look really stupid

I know! I really get mad when I see these things, just pop up every now and then and show them how misleading they are, it's the internet after all..

Most of the answerers can't be fooled but sadly some ACTUALLY believes that....let me guess..the ignorant Americans?

Some little ignorants try to be funny sometimes. They are always barking and nothing change.

Why you bother at the first place?
