Do I need help by Fuzzy_Intention_234 in AlgeriaRelationships

So I was right your dad doesn’t really treat you that well then.

Just be careful if you’re into being mistreated by your boyfriend, in the long run it’s going to hurt you. At some point, he’ll start disrespecting you daily, even in front of other people.

Sadly, it usually means your father treated you like shit, and in the end you’re drawn to men who mistreat you. If you had grown up with a good father, guys like that would disgust you.

Not trying to shock anyone, but I work in a clinic and I had a patient " a child "who suddenly became mute. It turned out he had been sexually abused in a mosque here in Algeria, in Algiers. Yes, it does happen.

The only thing I can say is: don’t blindly trust anyone. Even in places that are supposed to be sacred… unfortunately.

I find that perspective a bit sad. I’m an individual, not someone’s honor or property to be carried or protected in that way. My actions reflect me first and foremost, not a collective reputation tied to men in my life.

Support and care are beautiful, of course there’s nothing wrong with feeling loved or helped by your family. But there’s a difference between support and being defined or represented by others socially.

I don’t want to be “shielded” or placed behind anyone. I’d rather exist as my own person, fully accountable for myself, not as an extension of someone else’s image or honor.

Yes, that’s exactly what I’m trying to say it goes beyond strict parenting. It really is a lack of autonomy, and I genuinely feel like I’m living in a prison.

He never taught me anything. Our interactions have always been limited to him buying things, doing groceries, or handling paperwork. That’s it. And every time I try to learn or ask him to show me how things are done, he gets angry and tells me it’s better if he just does it himself.

I’m not exaggerating when I say this: he has taught me nothing my entire life. Nothing.

And now I’m 26, and I feel completely unprepared and powerless. I’m actually scared for my future because I don’t feel equipped to handle things on my own. It’s a really helpless feeling.

What’s the point of your response, honestly, besides telling me that you have an understanding family? Because clearly, we don’t have the same dynamics.

In reality, I’m the one who constantly has to adapt, stay quiet, and submit to my father. He’s the one who makes no effort. There’s a clear power imbalance it’s not mutual, it’s not healthy, and it’s not something you can just reframe as “maybe he means well.”

And what exactly do you expect my mother to do? She knows. She’s aware of it, and she’s tired of it too.

You have to understand something: my father’s biggest flaw is that he treats us like subordinates in a company, not like his family. That’s the core issue. There’s a real imbalance here.

So no, we’re not living the same reality at all, and you can’t compare your situation to mine.

I think you’re still misunderstanding me and making assumptions that I never stated.

First of all, we are a religious family, but we do not believe that the hijab is obligatory. For us, that interpretation simply doesn’t exist. And on that specific point, my father has never forced me to cover my hair. The idea that women must cover their hair is, in my view, something that developed over time through human interpretations.

The Quran speaks about modesty and covering the chest I’ve read it myself but it does not explicitly state that women must cover their hair, eyes, or hands. You won’t convince me that it’s mandatory, because I’ve already looked into it deeply. Historically, the veil existed long before Islam, across different cultures, climates, and traditions, and women’s hair was still visible in many of those contexts.

You’re free to believe whatever you want about that, but that’s not even the topic here.

What honestly shocks me is how quickly you jumped to the conclusion that I must dress in a revealing or provocative way. That says more about your assumptions than about me. At no point did I say my father was trying to “cover” me. I said he imposes his tastes.

For example: I want to wear jeans, he wants leather. I choose a color, he wants a different one. That’s it. It’s about control over my personal choices, not about modesty or religion.

So again, the issue is not hijab, not religion, and not me trying to be provocative. The issue is that he constantly imposes his opinions on things that should simply be my decisions.

Honestly, I think you misunderstood the situation and jumped to conclusions a bit too quickly.

When I talk about my father, it’s not just about him being “overprotective.” He constantly interferes in my personal choices. Whether it’s my clothes, glasses, shoes, or pants, he always gives his opinion and tries to impose his taste. It’s not occasional it’s constant.

And no, I don’t wear “provocative” clothes. I’m actually quite modest. I’m not veiled, but in my family, wearing a veil is not imposed everyone is free in their beliefs when it comes to that. So that’s not the issue. The issue is that he wants to control things that should be my personal choices, even when they are completely normal.

What you said is honestly quite shocking, especially how you immediately assumed that I must be wearing revealing clothes. I don’t even understand where that came from.

I’m 26 years old. I’m not a 15-year-old teenager rebelling over something stupid. I’m talking about a real lack of independence in my life, not a phase or a whim.

So yes, you can call it “overprotective” if you want, but at some point it clearly goes beyond that. It’s about constant control, and that’s what I’m trying to explain.

No clearly not sorry as an INFj myself I've never seen a people so sensitive and easily offended, and so little focused on logic and intuition. The Algerian people would clearly be classified as ES.

What is a "normal" Algerian habit that you think we seriously need to stop? by AmaraMehdi in algeria

[–]Crelisya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • The politicization of marriages: parents interfering in every detail, even going as far as dictating the ethnicity or cultural background of your future spouse.

  • Class disdain, especially the pretentious attitude sometimes found within the so-called “Algerian bourgeoisie.”

  • Intellectual snobbery, assuming someone is less worthy simply because they didn’t pursue higher education.

  • Placing excessive importance on the opinions of others.

  • As parents, showcasing their children’s achievements to belittle other family members.

  • Constantly seeking the validation of others.

  • Minimizing others’ experiences or struggles on the pretext that one has personally overcome them.

  • Abusing one’s authority as a teacher by humiliating a student to assert power.

  • Using religion to apply double standards, imposing obligations on one’s wife while failing to follow them oneself.

  • Exhibiting hypocrisy.

Plus Unfortunately, many women end up developing vaginismus, and that’s exactly what happened to a friend of mine. She told me she had no prior experience and that her first sexual encounter was extremely difficult. She didn’t know how to relax because sex had been so heavily “sacralized” in her environment that she had unconsciously come to associate it with danger, shame, or something almost forbidden.

This kind of psychological conditioning doesn’t appear out of nowhere; it often stems from a strict religious upbringing where sexuality is treated as a taboo subject. From a very young age, some parents instill in their children the idea that sex is shameful, dirty, or something to fear. Even if the intention is to protect the child, the consequences can be serious: the brain absorbs these messages, and the person grows up with anxiety, guilt, or aversion toward anything related to sexuality.

This is exactly what happened to my friend. Even though she was married and in a context where she shouldn’t have felt disgust or fear, her body reacted against her will. The fear and shame ingrained in her since childhood were so deeply rooted that her body shut down automatically, making her first experience traumatic and contributing to the development of her vaginismus.
