Muslim Men February 4, 2008

I came across a thought provoking post at Unique Muslimah’s blog which examines the different types of Muslim men she has encountered.
First type is the everything-is-haram man; the second type is everything-is-halal-type; and the third is the one who is in the middle “just right” (sounds like the story of the Three Little Bears).
I wonder if we can put men into neat little categories like that and finally understand them properly.
I am the middle one, the ok guy , yupppppy.
===============================
Hmmmm
I will let others judge you

I don’t think its that simple, I don’t think its even possible with women!
Too many different kinds of men… I think men are like steaks.. that is what you can compare them to, some are lean and some have that extra something! lol
==================
Now that’s a description that I can digest

I disagree with Marzouq. It is that simple. I’ve encountered so many men in my life (family, school, uni) and i did notice that they fall into these 3 categories. I noticed that the ones in the middle can sometimes lean towards one of the other two categories.
=============================
Yes, that is an interesting observation.
What about those really free men who turn ultra conservative later on?
Or vice versa.
Personally I like moderation – extremes on either side rattle me.

I am on the other end of the complex spectrum z.#
===================================
Indeed Random, you are

I am a liberal Muslim but I am conservative in some areas (i.e. drinking alcohol) but liberal in some areas as well (i.e. hanging out with girls in public place).
So just like This Lady mentioned, I can be considered on the middle but I’m leaning toward the liberal category more at the same time.
For me, I am big fan of faith rather than the concept of religion, but that’s another issue that would take me a whole post to explain.
=================================
It’s ok Angelo
We are all confused by you men anyway
Jewaira
Men aren’t that confusing. Women just have small brains.
===========================================
I shall humour.
Women may have small brains but some men don’t have them at all; or at least not in the right places.
Jewaira
A lot of them claim to be liberal or in the middle.. But inside they’re as close minded as you can get
=======================================
Yes, I think it’s to do with emotional and mental security; confuses them
Jewaira
Good Stuff, and women just can’t get enough.
=========================
Of a good thing? Certainly not
Jewaira
Grin,
I think the try to understand each other and categorize will go on until we are all gone from the face of earth.
I like the steak explanation
