Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

Couple of my friends who are married to women from Syria and Jordan and are very happy indeed.

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

Really? I would have said the opposite (most desi men in general don't do much in the way of housework etc. due to cultural influences and their upbringings usually with their mothers + sisters doing the bulk of the domestic stuff) and there's the obvious issue of living with inlaws in their home which most non-desi girls would prob flat out refuse to do..

I know a couple of Arab men married to Pakistani girls but no matches the other way round..

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

I don't think he's talking about housework or in-laws.

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

^It was just the OP calling Pak men 'domestic' and 'easy to control' that was bugging me..

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

Isnt it uncanny? Just do a search on my posts, and most of my posts are usually the last in the thread! :smiley:

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

one of my cousins got married to an arab-born. though her family basically belonged to Pak. but they are settled there for more then 40 years.

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

Not all Arabi people are arrogant. But they have different rules and cultures. Some of them are very kind and caring :slight_smile:

They care about us. Sometimes beyond our expectation

Some of them are arrogant, not all. Simply every race is very diverse, you cant label them explicitly.

As I said, it was not in my limited knowledge that Pakistani men are married to Arab girls and living in those countries. Now its quite intruiging to know how they interact with their inlaws. Because both cultures have very different lifestyle, Language and cultures.

And food too. I like Arabic food :yummy: Buklawa , Labnese dishes , Khummas and lots of other dishes i tried and I like them.

Please share if you know something :k:

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

Sorry to burst the bubble as gdawesome said you didn't understand meaning properly.

We, Pakistani men usually dont do household chores because we can provide servent, maids to our ladies. Still if they are not available, our ladies dont like to see gentlemen doing household chore regularly. They are queens and we have to obey them.

Oh to clear any confussion I mean Pakistani ladies with *Pakistani Nationality. *

It is a cultural thing :)

Domestic mean home bound, good and firmly placed at home grounds.

Majority of Pakistani men try to keep long lasting relationship.

  1. Majority of Pakistani men do not indulge in extra-marital affairs.

  2. Majority of Pakistani men do not go for polygamy.

  3. Majority of Pakistani men are good parents and husbands.

  4. Majority of Pakistani men try to balance immediate family with inlaws.

Same applies to Pakistani Ladies.

Again I repeat, Pakistani mean people with only Pakistani Nationality.

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

its simple - arabs keep their women more locked up than other societies. when you can’t even see the woman’s face, unless your mom picked her out, why’d you want to marry her? :smokin:

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

I have come to notice that quite alot of Arabs look down upon S. Asians. My assumption is that in a desi setting, where wife is expected and preferred to be somewhat submissive (obedient), it's not going to play out well, in most cases. Maybe thats one of the reasons most people don't go for Arab/S. Asian Combo.

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

I was about to say something....but then I realized my gustakhi...cant really say anythign about those Arabs now can I?
Except ....their shawarmas rock.

Re: Why foreign women agree to marry Pakistani men Except

I don't think Arabs look down of south asians, we just feel the cultures are not really compatable. Language is a big thing, most Arabs in the UK only know Arabic and English, while people from Pakistan and India will know each others languages so if an Indian marries a Pakistani there are no problems with the older generations communicating with each other. Food is a bit different too, you guys love chilli in everything, we prefer 'spicy' as opposed to 'hot'. Also the joint family system is a little wierd, most Arabs will only live with parents if they are in a dire financial position or the parents need to be cared for. Weddings are different too, we just have one big Walima and all the expenses are covered by the boys family, no mendi, or engagement parties either. As soon as nikkah is done, you live together as husband and wife even if your walima is planned later on and the Haq Mehr is always paid in full on day of nikkah. Even with those differences if 2 people really want to be together they will find a way to make it work, you both take the best practises from your cultures and discard the rest.
