Thats 75% folks--the number of threads relating to marriage.  All talk and no walk--you don't want to get married but can't stop talking about it.  Lets start posting some real muslim men's issues and turn this ratio on its head.

Another interesting statistic: The last post on 12 of these threads was by a sister.  Sisters,  please don't make this forum another akhawat cafe.

O no... no more issues i'm gonna talk about. It would be better if we talk about compromises!! i mean there "are" many sisters and brothers who have these ideals!! c'mon ppl it aint a perfect world, idealism wont help.

So, who is ready to compromise about what ?!

Us men like lots of empty space. And a little peace and quiet also helps. Consequently, this forum takes long periods of rests, to forget it all for a while. There, now you know the secret.

Men know how to keep a secret, hence we don't discuss a lot of real men stuff here. If only the forum had some way to deny access to the sisters!

Women on the other hand can never keep a secret, and hence the long discussions about everythin in akhwat cafe.

Oh man...you just backed yourself into a corner, bro Muhammad Ahmed..

We discuss everything, because we don't have any secrets...

You guys, on the other hand, discuss nothing substantial, because everything that is substantial should be kept secret.

Just rephrasing what the bro said  :-X

Wasalaam.

You try to start and end your posts with  [slm] but you always fail! there is ALWAYS a PS or just a message after the ending  [slm]. That gave you away without a doubt.

"We have no secrets" is another way of saying "we can't keep secrets." Since you can't keep them you are left with none to keep.

Thank you for confirming me.

You are right about men though! Caution is always best, increases your taqwa.

ANOTHER thread started on marriage but this time it was a bro (Jaihoon). So its "15 out of 21" now.

And i wonder why did he post it in Akhwat's Cafe!! erm.. could it be that he is trying to prove true theory of bro Arshad about "Quality vs Quantity" :P

obviously Allah knows best
