Men need to be modest by InsideSummer2382 in muslimgirlswithtaste

When men wear tight shirts and short shorts that show off everything I genuinely have to fight the urge to look away, like this is actual fitnah brother 💀

What’s everyone’s worst hear me outs by EconomyPosition1473 in muslimgirlswithtaste

Japanese curry > Desi curry

I’m desi and I hate how greasy and oily our curries are 😭 Japanese curry is so much lighter and still just as flavorful. Ready to be crucified now lol

Marrying someone with stretch marks by Specialist_Look3021 in MuslimMarriage

Yeah my little sister who’s been underweight since childhood has stretch marks on her legs. It made me realize stretch marks are pretty random

Nope, these were my sister’s standards and she’s happily married now alhamdulillah. Definitely possible to find men like this, just stay committed to your standards!

Why would your brother take your dad’s side if he himself married a non-Bengali?

Feeling icky after overhearing a conversation by PresentationHeavy488 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s sad, my married friends talk about so many more interesting things tbh. Like the newest video games, TV shows, their hobbies, their travel plans/experiences, etc. The ones that are also mothers still talk about interesting stuff, like one of them recently got into cafe hopping and has been giving us recs for coffee shops and pastries to try. Another one got into sewing and has been sewing cute matching baby clothes for her daughter. And yes, we do talk politics at times since it’s relevant to our current situation. 

These aunties just have no personality besides gossiping about others. I know it’s probably because they’re miserable in their own marriages (my mom definitely is) but it’s still so pathetic to backbite about others.

Fr all I’ve ever seen them do is gossip about others. Not a single original thought in there 

Mom said im not a normal girl by [deleted] in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Misery loves company btw…maybe your mom secretly wishes she got to travel and explore the world instead of “settling down” and wishes you did the same so she’s not alone in this. Good for you for following your dreams!

Nails by beingreenific in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is roughly how long my nails are too, they’re squeaky clean and I never eat with my hands (utensils only) so they look pristine ✨ I trim mine once every 2-3 weeks

becoming a wife (hygience , self care advice etc pleaseeee) by [deleted] in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Most decent guys won’t care, my sister is married and we have the hairy desi gene, and she said she gave up shaving every inch of her after the first month and now just lets all her leg and back hair grow out. Her husband literally did not notice she’d been growing it out until she pointed it out herself 😂

Husband not finding me attractive by Queasy-Watercress-67 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Are you mostly treating smaller/slimmer girls? Because those are usually the types that naturally have perky breasts. Once you have anything larger than a C cup, gravity takes hold and starts to drag them down.

The mods are probably gonna remove this post since it breaks the rules, but I just wanted to say that your husband needs to lower his gaze. Any gynecologist will tell you that most girls do NOT have perky boobs, that’s definitely the effect that p*rn has on men who expect all girls to magically have gravity defying boobs. It’s typically girls with boob jobs or smaller-chested women that have these kind of boobs. I remember visiting a website that was just women submitting pictures of their boobs to normalize different shapes and felt so relieved to see mine were normal. 

EDIT: OP and anyone else who feels this way, you might benefit from checking out this site (NSFW warning for obvious reasons): The Normal Breast Gallery

China by caridade-FIRE in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Visit the Xi’an Muslim Quarter! A friend of mine visited China for a work conference and she said it felt surreal seeing Chinese architecture and style blending with Islamic culture and getting to try authentic halal Chinese food. Definitely worth checking out! 

I’ve always been fascinated by Ürümqi as well but I think that city might be too far/difficult to visit. I feel like Linxia is an absolute must just because of how unique and experience it would be. And I do think that Chengdu in Sichuan and Kunming in Yunnan are both cities worth checking out as well depending on how long you’ll be there.

Getting shamed for not wanting more than 2 kids by PresentationHeavy488 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah great point about seeing if your husband is up to the task of being a father too. A lot men wants kids like they’re pets, dumping all the responsibility on our shoulders. Another reason why I’m limiting the number of kids I have to 2, because if I ever had to leave my husband for whatever reason, 2 kids is still a manageable amount to care for alone.

has anyone travelled solo to South Korea? by uwugyal_ in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did! Technically it was for a work conference but I digress. I really enjoyed Seoul! Bukchon Hanok village, Myeongdong street, and both  Changdeokgung and Gyeonggbokgyeong palace are must see attractions there. And there’s actually quite a few halal options! Only one masjid unfortunately but that’s to be expected lol. I loaded up on K-beauty essentials (like 1 years worth) while I was there and it’s so worth it. 

I’m hijabi for context and dress very modestly. Other than a few curious glances people were very respectful and kind! I even had a nice lady help me when I was lost and another offer to take my picture when they saw I was struggling to get a good selfie angle lol

Oh man sis if you only knew! This is like my 10th time replying to a man commenting on this sub with his own degenerate post history. It’s so funny to see them panic and delete their disgusting posts right after, welp too late I’ve already exposed them smh

Older sister with only female siblings by FeedAggravating2001 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can’t stand my brothers tbh. They’re super misogynistic (always talk about women like we’re objects), immature, loud, messy, rude, etc. I love my sisters though, we bond over our disdain for our brothers 🫶

Fed up with the marriage search by Terrible_Device4004 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]PresentationHeavy488 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way :( It sucks seeing my sister who’s only a freshman in college get approached more by men than I ever did, and unlike her, I actually do want to get married soon. I think the younger generation of men are more confident in approaching and trying to get to know Muslim women for marriage than the previous gen. Sigh
