Some women long to date or get married to Somali men because of their loyalty and politeness.

However, over the years, some people have developed stereotypes against Somali men.

Here are six stereotypes:

1. Stingy

Some people claim that Somali men are stingy and don’t take their responsibilities.

This is not true because these men just like others go the extra mile to take their families.

2. Cowards

Some people claim that Somali men are cowards and don’t stick to their decisions.

The fact of the matter is that Somali men are not cowards when it comes to decision making.

3. Unromantic

Some people often brand  Somali men as unromantic when it comes to the matters of the heart.

It is not right to generalize Somali men as unromantic because there are those who know how to handle love matters.

4. 'Playboys'

Some people often claim that Somali men are playboys.

This is not true and one person’s actions should not be used to generalize others.

5. Not ambitious

It is not true that Somali men are not ambitious.

These men work hard for their families every day.
