It seems to suggest that is well established fact when infact you are just speaking from experience. be more accurate and your theory sucks as to why habesha's dont date other habesha. Here is a better one: habesha's that grew up here are part of the larger American community and as a tiny fraction of America, they are more apt to end up with other Americans.
@MrBe6434 ur confusing islam the Religion and Arab culture though they can go hand in hand sometimes. marrying cousin is primarily a middle east culture. I dont think Islam prescribes it to its followers but nor does it ban it. Ethiopian muslims dont engage in that. now you know.
transitions from one country like the U.S/Europa, make dating hard, 2nd protestantism is the #1 (DIVIDER)destroyer of A.A. communities,therefore it has detructive/DIVISIVE effects on habesha.Selamta~
maybe when you're in middle school, but by the time you reach highschool and graduate, habesha men hormones are so strong,and habesha women are soo beautiful, that we'd bang our own cousins!LOL!but90%of usknow we not with our cousins!this group only represents a 0.001%dynamic in the habesha community!it's a funny thought!lol
aaaaah i wouldn't say that. Some ppl don't know their family and end up dating someone who IS their cousin. so sad. I heard about that almost happening to someone i knew once lol. and for me, I just always asked my parents who I was and wasn't related to. check and done!
i'm so confused why people took this video to be offensive?? everybody needs to take a deep breathe...do some yoga or something ! lolol! anyway...haha..my mom always does this, good PSA!!
Im not sure if its true i mean in Addis most of us know who's our reall family's are i mean i went in a schoole with 50 kids if somebody try to tell me we all related by blod how am i going to believe that
@qonjoooo You missed the context my friend. I am talking about habesha's abroad in the US and Europe. Back home there is no need or incentive for parents to tell you that because family ties are strong. Abroad "family" can be a simple connection based on being from the same village, town or area.
@lullmen I totally agree with u!! i was born and raised in Europe I don't feel like dating habesha's whom I grew up with, although i must admit i am attracted some of them, coz my parents just like ur parents told that i'm related to the other kids i grew up with&now that I am a fully grown adult, i can not see my self dating any of those i grew with even through i know they are not related to me &guess what? my parents complain why i am not dating habesha? where is their common sense?
@lullmen i think as long as you know where to draw the line. i`m from London and got a lot of cousins both here and back in Addis. but i doubt that all of them are directly related to me, but like you said there is a strong family tie in Addis and everyone close to the family is also regarded as a relative. but i guess its difficult to draw the line.
@lullmen Come on, how many times were you told that the person is your cousin??? once...twice.....may be 3X.....okay may be you are told that many times but we all have common sens(you must be atleast a teenager to check out the ladies that you should be able to utilize your common sense)...you can't have that many cousins right??? anyways the whole point is to protect you from paying the child support!!!!!!!
lol im so late for this video but that is sooooooooooooo like sooooo true. apparently every habesha that is my age is my cuz and the older ones are my uncles.
omg this is sooo true....lookiing back like every habesha kid I'd meet and was friends of the family was my "cousin" LMAO this might be part of why I have never dated habesha guy.
@emaades ah let me help you out a bit. You wrote "fuck off" but I am sure you meant "fuck you." "Fuck off would indicate that I was in fact bothering you or forcing you to watch the above video. "Fuck you" would be a more appropriate insult that can be used toward something that you actively sought out. For example, if you were to respond back to this you could now write "fuck off" as I have wrote a response to you that you more then likely could do without.
@lullmen fuck off man! as for cousin she hottttt damn shame she is tigray( enemy of habesha) oh yaaaaaaaaa don't feel all almighty u went to UW not Harvard:))))))))))BIATCH!
@hppaviliontac thank you for positive and engaging comment. I especially love your usage of the word "hottttt" which obviously is a lot of hot, like hot to the 4th power hot. Your spelling of the word "BIATCH" is also creative and almost thug life worthy but of course we all know real thugs don't write comments on youtube, they are too busy IN THESE STREETS SON. Lastly, you are right I didn't go to Harvard for undergraduate or my masters degree and for that I am truly a failure in life.
@hppaviliontac why would you say its a shame she's from tigray? politically yes tigray/ethiopia is the enemy but we are they same people, you even speak the same language as the tigrays. i dont understand people like you:/ #issues
AND ERITREANS FEMALES IN LONDON ARE EASILY MANUPLATED . THROUGH RELIGION, MONEY (WE HAVE "SOME" ERI/ETHIO GOLD DIGGERS HERE), PEER PRESSURE FROM FRIENDS AS I HAVE SEEN QUITE A LOT WITH A PATWA ACCENT (JAMAICAN) OR ATTEMPTING ONE.
@MrStonedprunes I agree! There isnt anything out there in London such as a youth-club, sports event, social gathering where eris' or ethios' can interact. As a result most of eri guys and girls go their own way and completeley lose their habesha mentality and get caught with the so called "road life". All am saying is eritreans are slowly disappearing especially my generation as I've seen many dating Hibeys non-habesha which is scary. Got any ideas to save our "shukorinatat" from these baryas?
Everything you guys said is so true. I always talk about this stuff with my cousins and like you said everytime I see a cute habesha guy I'm like ...hey mom are we related?? lol and mehret i love your accent lol. Proud to be habesha!
But the cousin thing also does work though...in making us closer. Cause it jump-starts the relationship. But they do it in Eritrea too. And especially if that keeps happening you just automatically jump-start that with other Eritreans.
Wait I just remembered, my mom's frame of reference is growing up in Ethiopia.
@Meezletoe So maybe its just when you're in another country. So immigrant communities.
I don't think so though cause she said usually they usually marry from other villages. But maybe its just the Westermark effect but slightly encouraged by parents accidentally.
Also after like every Eritrean family you meet is related to you, you feel like they literally are all, subconsciously. So its like eritrean becomes synonymous with cousin xD. So you're not just gonna hit on some random eritrean, for all you know they could be your cuz or second cuz xD since its like everyones related. On top of that, it seems to be a theme in some tragic dramas or eritrean movies o_o Marrying a half-sibling cause u didn't know. I've seen 3 like that w/horrible sad endings ;_;
In California everyone knows everyone and California is more urban in that its easier to socialize &you meet a bunch of people all the time. Arizona is all sprawled out and some cities maybe there's like 1 habesha family there and you'll hardly ever see them. BUT YEAH YOUR THEORY IS SPOT ON. Cause my mom said usually back home you'd marry someone from another neighborhood cause everyone in yours was 'related' to you &you couldn't see them that way. So it works there but not here. xD Cause yeah.
@Meezletoe aah ok I meant you meet people all the time in Cali but when you're younger and then it slows, but while you're meeting them you're being introduced as cousins. In Arizona its like randomly you'll meet someone, and half the time its at a party. Its harder to connect and maybe also cause of that you'll value it more too and WANT to connect cause I notice they have more eri-pride in a way &they get excited about it. So geography/u.s. culture somehow plays a big deal in it surprisingly.
lolz u guys are funny that is new experience !! My dad used to tell me “u will get there when u grow up n stuff and work hard towards it” but, cousin' lolz that's one hella funny thing I’ve ever heard of. Can u imagine, right if I goes to my dad “that gal is cute” n he goes to me she is ur cousin. I would've said to him wow great that make me even closer!! Let alone do back up and ignore it. Funny!!
lol, I agree with the cousin thing, my dads side of the family is Eritrean and my mom is just African american. :/ So I'm in between. Im from Seattle too but most of the habesha people I see strictly date other habesha. Not all but most it seems.
lmao this is so true! If I had a penny every-time my mom told me "this is your cousin" I would be a rich-ass woman by nowl!!! Thanks for making this video, funny how all Habesha parents seem to have common parenting. Love them :)
LOL! even people in the black american community do the same thing. its called "play cousins", usually happens between people who are friends and their children play together. they tell them they are cousins, and stay loyal to that idea....LOL
@PhillyTheScrummie I think the correlation goes, the smaller the community outside of the US the stronger the ties within the community. Hence, more cousin calling.
This is the first time I am hearing about "being cousins" as a reason and its not the reason. The truth is, Habeshas do not always say what they are mean, partly because of pride and partly because they think the other person is stupid. Maybe your next book should be about that...keep it up and good videos.
@ponder2006 Thanks! Every culture seems to have its own stigmas and challenges. We are such a close-nit group of people that it does backfire. I might have to write a book about habesha's dating. haha
LMAO! I find it so interesting when I learn that no matter how distant us first generations are, ALL of our life lessons and experiences are ONE! Smh. I have 50-11 cousins, and only 20 are blood. I'll put it like this, 95% of Ethie women range from cute to gorgeous, 5% are simply off. And the opposite goes for the men---95% are just off, and 5 % are pretty damn sexy... and of those 5% I'm related to 3%... slim pickings. Smh. Kudos to your rant.
@Dureye I went to a family reunion in august only to find out my great grandfather had over 29 kids.........that we know about! "5% are simply off" had me cracking up.
I totally agree, I've been saying this for the longest haha But I must admit, growing up, it was easier for me to say that an habesha friend was my cousin to non-habesha friends because I didn't see them as a friend, but as a cousin. Thank you habesha parents!
too funny! you know, us tongans got the same problem too. most of us swear that we think were all related to each other, and as a result just date other people.
haha, my parents always tells me that every habesh i met is my cousin or something like that xD i showed this to her and she was like... nonono :p

Also the kids in PHX are a lot more goofy and laid back in their own way than Cali. Politically thought the sichieyshon I hear is more intense.

LOL! even people in the black american community do the same thing. its called "play cousins", usually happens between people who are friends and their children play together. they tell them they are cousins, and stay loyal to that idea....LOL

@PhillyTheScrummie I think the correlation goes, the smaller the community outside of the US the stronger the ties within the community. Hence, more cousin calling.

This is the first time I am hearing about "being cousins" as a reason and its not the reason. The truth is, Habeshas do not always say what they are mean, partly because of pride and partly because they think the other person is stupid. Maybe your next book should be about that...keep it up and good videos.

@ponder2006 Thanks! Every culture seems to have its own stigmas and challenges. We are such a close-nit group of people that it does backfire. I might have to write a book about habesha's dating. haha

LMAO! I find it so interesting when I learn that no matter how distant us first generations are, ALL of our life lessons and experiences are ONE! Smh. I have 50-11 cousins, and only 20 are blood. I'll put it like this, 95% of Ethie women range from cute to gorgeous, 5% are simply off. And the opposite goes for the men---95% are just off, and 5 % are pretty damn sexy... and of those 5% I'm related to 3%... slim pickings. Smh. Kudos to your rant.

@Dureye I went to a family reunion in august only to find out my great grandfather had over 29 kids.........that we know about! "5% are simply off" had me cracking up.

I totally agree, I've been saying this for the longest haha But I must admit, growing up, it was easier for me to say that an habesha friend was my cousin to non-habesha friends because I didn't see them as a friend, but as a cousin. Thank you habesha parents!

too funny! you know, us tongans got the same problem too. most of us swear that we think were all related to each other, and as a result just date other people.
