WOULD YOU DATE A MUSLIM GUY?

[Anonymous]

I just saw this video and it's really pissed me off , is that what you thinking about muslims?

[Tony_1693]

Well, a lot of Muslims are extremists and have these weird and obstructed irrational views on life from what I've seen. I don't care about being politically correct here because from what I've seen, they seem to be irrational and on the radical side of societal views.

There's an Islamic war on terrorism that's been ongoing for a while. Muslims are known to treat their women like second class citizens in their native countries. I'm not saying that all Muslims are like this, but stereotypes exist for a reason.

It's sort of cringe how this guy goes out of his way to play the victim card because he got stereotyped. We all deal with stereotypes. Put a white kid in a black neighborhood and watch him get racially attacked from every angle. Put a black kid in a white suburb and watch him get stereotyped behind his back. Put a radical Christian in a Mosque and watch him get degraded in his views as soon as it becomes apparent.

No, I don't feel bad for Muslims. We all deal with judgment and negative stereotypes.

[MadeInAmerica]

I wouldn't date any guy to be honest.

[Love_Byte]

I feel like I have a LOT to say about this video, but I'll start off by saying I wouldn't date someone who was religious. I'm atheist, I don't want to have any part in any religion. If their background is religious but they don't subscribe, then it's no problem for me, but someone who is religious might be better off with someone who shares their same values.
NOW, about the video:
First off if someone wanted to date me because they "thought I was hot" I would turn him down for that alone. I don't hand out my number to random people. He was a nice guy, if not a bit pushy when it came to wanting her number, but I get that was mostly for the camera.
SHE was 100% ignorant on the subject of his religion/origin. Yes, SOME of the things she mentioned are extreme trademarks of the Muslim religion but are certainly not exclusive to it, and hardly common amongst the vast majority of practicing Muslims today (especially in first world countries). Sadly this ignorance is not uncommon.

[BrittBratt2416]

We can't date cause one is Muslim and I'm Christian, we believe in two different faiths that have two different Gods so our beliefs would clash eventually and that would cause issues. Muslim men who are very dedicated to their faith are going to want their women to convert or at least that side of the family is deeply rooted Muslims and would most likely want their son's wife to Muslim and the children to Muslim as well. And it's not going to happen, cause one I'm not changing my beliefs for anyone, I'm going to teach my children about Jesus cause to me Jesus isn't a prophet, He's the Son of God/Lord/Savior. That right there is going to butt some heads and I'm not teaching them both it's either one or the other. Now Muslims guys can be cute, the guy in the video is mad cute but it just wouldn't work and it would be best to find people who believe in the same faith.

[PrincessPie]

I have been on a date with one before (he was turkish) and i'm quite into the mediterranean look i probably would but only if they were non-praticing and they weren't that serious about it.. but if we clicked and got on well and i fancied him i wouldn't say no because of it..
If that video isn't a set up the girl in video acted stupid, she sounds really thick.

[Asker]

What if he was practicing and being nice with u and respect u belief too

[PrincessPie]

Well what would praticing involve?
I don't know enough about it to say yes or no if you can tell me i can give a answer.

[Asker]

I mean if he was practicing his beliefs

[PrincessPie]

Yes what are his beliefs that he practices?

[Asker]

Like pray , fasting , zakat (charity)

[PrincessPie]

Would he drink?

[Asker]

Maybe

[PrincessPie]

If he drank and didn't expect me to do the things he did (not eat pork, pray, fast)
then i'd consider it if i really really liked him.
But i'd never convert as i don't have the same beliefs and never would if he didn't care then yeah i don't see why not.

[Asker]

Yep that’s my point as an openminded muslim i can practice my beliefs without force someone to follow it

[Türkü]

There are such racist people everywhere. There are also Muslims who do not like Christianity

[Asker]

Yeah sure , stupid people from both sides

[Sometimes12]

lol.. racist... /facepalm

hahahaha : "stupid people from both sides "

this was funny

[SuperMan89s]

Deep down muslims hate anyone who is not like them.

[Asker]

Bullshit I’m muslim I don’t do that

[SuperMan89s]

Ofcourse you dont...

[Asker]

So why did u say that?

[SuperMan89s]

Because you all are hypocrites ! I was muslim and I know your type.

[Asker]

No I’m not , can you tell how and why u left islam?

[SuperMan89s]

Treating women like crap, Assaulting anyone who dont agree with you, abusing children, executing people for having sex before marriage... etc
Its perverted and corrupted religion that doesn't have any place in the modern world.

[Asker]

Where u originally from?

[SuperMan89s]

Why?

[Asker]

Just curious , maybe u were live between extremely muslims

[SuperMan89s]

Don't change the subject ! This is exactly the muslims culture and you know it doesn't serve humanity.

[Asker]

I don’t change it bro , I’m muslim and muslims call me non muslim because I don’t agree with them

[witherwing]

I wouldn't date a Muslim, but that is because I'm not religious in any way and I don't want my partner to be either. The way the girl reacted on the video just shows how unbelievably ignorant people can be.

[Asker]

Even if he was openminded and respect your choice?

[witherwing]

No. I want my partner to feel the same way about religion as I do.

[Mr-Kabuki]

and how do you feel.

[witherwing]

I didn't want to say it out loud, because it's rude to all those people who are religious... I feel like religions are just a bunch of hoaxes to make gullable people behave in a certain way. 😐 I don't usually say that out loud, because it's really insensitive. But that's how I truly feel about religion.

[Mr-Kabuki]

well at least religions foster communities.

[ChronicThinker]

No. But I don't date religious people at all, so.

[Asker]

but what if he was religious and respect you?

[ChronicThinker]

I don't date religious people. Besides, the few times I have they always try to convert you at some point. I'd only do it if he believed but didn't practice.

[Subhajundo]

Atheism Ftw!!

[ChronicThinker]

@Subhajundo Ayyo.

[potatoisme]

I mean the question itself is kinda weird cuz Muslims are not all the same.
I wouldn't look at his religion, more than his personality, behaviour. I wanna know what kind of a person he is, not what kind of religion he has.
So I say.. If he's a good, open minded person and happens to be a Muslim then sure. If he's a bad person with a fucked up personality and happens to be a Muslim then no

[Omar5881]

Love you just for that comment lol

[Jaye234]

For me its a religious barrier. The man would never convert to Christianity and I wouldn't convert to any other religion.
Plus, the women for the most part get treated like shit- yes the young generation is more open minded but not the elders.
So as negative as it sounds I date Christian men.

[Jaye234]

And yes the woman was being a bitch-

[AzureGirl]

I personally wouldn’t just because I’m pretty sure I would have to convert and I don’t want religion in my life, but that’s about it. The girl in the video is just overreacting.

[Omar5881]

And what made you so sure? Lol I am not trying to debate here but assuming coz he's a Muslim that he's religious and actually forcing that on you? Like how many Muslims you know in life

[AzureGirl]

I honestly don’t know any, I’m basing the converting thing on what I see on here. I’ve seen many questions over the years about someone seriously dating a Muslim but was told they would have to convert if they were to get married

[Omar5881]

Not a single person I know or even came across, believes that his wife should convert to Islam if she isn't a Muslim, beside in theory in Islam it's prohibited to force religion, again I'm not debating but that's a false assumption no offence

[AzureGirl]

@Omar5881 none taken, as I said I’m just going based off what I see, it’s not like I have any Muslim friends I could cross reference this with or anything so I don’t really have a trusted source of information.

[Omar5881]

Ok , my words normally are just words , hopefully you come across someone that can convince you other wise , all the best.

[AzureGirl]

No your words are fine, I welcome new information if mine is false so thank you for letting me know!

[Omar5881]

Anytime

[DesiBeautyLover]

If a non Muslim woman marries a Muslim, she doesn't have to convert. A man has to convert if he marries a Muslim woman

[Punzie_]

I have and am still doing extensive, deep research on Islam. I talk to many Muslim people, men and women, as well. Before without the knowledge that i have now, I would have said why not? But now? NEVER.

[Asker]

Can u explain to me why never?

[Punzie_]

because i read too much of the Quran to be okay with what that book teaches. I don't want to marry someone who believes in that either. My brother also dated a Muslim once. She was horrible to him and in the end abused him because of her Islam as well. I have been treated badly as well by many Muslims because they loved their religion so much. I'll never date anyone who loves a religion let alone a lover of Islam. I have met only one nice Muslim. But all even they could do is focus on trying to convert me. And they would constantly think I was going to hell if I lived my life how I wanted to. I don't want to be judged. I've had one try to date me, but would mock me, call my family ugly, mocking the fact that I played guitar, etc. They would tell me a wife needs to be nice to her husband and "Allah forgive her" even though I wasn't his wife. They say they won't judge you yet they will call you a fool and judge you still.

There's more but for politeness' sake, I'll refrain.

[Asker]

You know all these things I don’t agree with my people about it although I’m a muslim

[Punzie_]

also, I want a husband that will agree with my values and who can think about things without running to the Quran with "well the Quran says this" and "the Quran says that". I don't like it.. Just something about it all really creeps me out. I am fine with dating a religious man so long as he doesn't try to force me into anything or doesn't judge me and can take what he dishes out and if he is understanding. He couldn't say I wasn't open-minded if he wasn't "open-minded" as well. Also, I wouldn't have fun in an Islamic marriage.

[Punzie_]

and what do you mean? I didn't see your last comment

[Asker]

I said all things you are mentioned about muslims and how they treated you I don’t agree with them , although I’m muslim

[Punzie_]

I hate that Muslims do act the way most do, and it's nice if you don't but I don't like the Quran, therefore, I couldn't marry someone who did because that would affect me. If he cared about the Quran then I couldn't do it. I would wear an Islamic garment as an experiment but never if I were forced to and it's very unlikely I would be free to go without. Unless I were in Lebanon. Until Saudi Arabia overtook it then that would be tough luck for me and I'd be forced to. Although maybe I'd get lucky. A Saudi prince has a wife who doesn't have to wear one, but I think eventually after living there for so long and the state worsening there, they will become less tolerant of non-Hijabis. I am into that middle eastern look from guys, but when I hear someone is Muslim, it's an instant turn off. I feel bad for saying it but I just can't. It's not about the person but the religion.

[nerdyguy123]

Puznie, I am Muslim myself. I could relate to what you are saying.

I am not very religious, but I know religious Muslim people, who have this tendency of forcing their beliefs on others, as well as judging other people. I lived in a Muslim majority country, so I had no idea how its outside in the word.

Now I live in an open society, I hate been controlled and judged. What surprisingly, I found out was, it was not Islam, it was religious people, who act this way. So, I could agree with you not dating religious person, as long as they are not empathetic and think we all are going to hell.

But for me, it will religious people in general, I wouldn't point out only Muslims. But maybe I am biased as I was raised as Muslim and with same values.

[Punzie_]

@nerdyguy123 I understand and i hate that it is that way. I think it is becasue of ignorance of interpretation. That is why no matter the religion, there are people like that. But it is Islam that i have the biggest problem with. I couldn't allow myself to be in a marriage with someone who needed it. It's not against any sane Muslims like you, but the religion itself.

[Anonymous]

If i was gay, sure. He looks pretty cute. And be seems like a nice guy. I dont care what your beliefs are. I judge every person by their actions, not their views. I have some pretty radical views on things but i dont force them on others or ct on them because it would either take away someones rights or hurt someone. But if you do any if that, you get to taste the back end of the pimp hand

[mackg]

Being a veteran having being in the countries where Sharia law rules and creates a Society that keeps people in line using fear and oppression. I would never interact with these people in the first place. If you don't know what Sharia law is you should educate yourself.

[Tony_1693]

^ This

[JCT666]

So? Where is the lie in what she said?

Funny how Muslims hate LGBT, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, atheists... and yet, complain about "islamophobia".

[Asker]

When some people do stupid things , that doesn’t mean you should be like them , I’m muslim from Medina (holly city in islam after Makkah ) I support LGBT and Christians , jews , buddhists , atheist... etc though I don’t agree with them as they don’t too

[DesiBeautyLover]

Honestly I don't blame the girl in the video one bit. Of course not all Muslims are like that, but with such a bad rep who can blame her for being cautious.

[DesiBeautyLover]

Her comments were bigoted but I don't think it's arrogant to not want to date outside of your race, religion

[itwasmelaniasfault]

Honestly no, because I don't date people who have major differences in beliefs. If he wasn't Muslim but came from an area where there was majority of muslims, I wouldn't have a problem

[LunaJ]

no i wouldn't. i have only bad experience with them even without dating one.
i know there are good muslim people out there too, ofc

[maariadaniella]

I dated a Muslim that is actually still my friend... I wouldn't care less about religion when the attraction is real.

[DesiBeautyLover]

Was he from Trinidad?

[maariadaniella]

No... from Lebanon

[DesiBeautyLover]

Oh. I asked because Trinidad is close and there are a lot of Muslims there. I know there are Lebanese in Curacao so it doesn't surprise me there are some in Venezuela.

[maariadaniella]

yes in my city there's a small community of Lebenese.

[Philyouup]

Considering that of the religions of the God of Abraham, Islam is the most anti female, I'd say know, but love know no bounds.. Dogs have more freedom then woman do in most if not all Muslim countries.

[KhalidAmerican]

No, I don’t take stupid risks, unless I can know for sure I’ll be alright.

[DesiBeautyLover]

You're smart and it's good that you are cautious. Some people are not.

[KhalidAmerican]

@DesiBeautyLover Never being a Muslim, ever.

[DesiBeautyLover]

Me either. It's not for. The circumcion is enough for me not to convert.

[KhalidAmerican]

@DesiBeautyLover with a*

[Rissyanne]

No... that is way to far out of my religious beliefs. People are allowed to have their preferences.

[Nabla]

Talking about girls, I probably would not date someone who actually prays five times a day and wears a hijab. If she is just from a Muslim country, I don't care.

[Sometimes12]

I don't see a single thing remotely wrong with that.

Incompatible beliefs are a big deal and Islam is pretty fucked up so I don't blame anyone for not wanting to date a muslim.

[Twinrova]

No I wouldn't. Guys have too much cock for my tastes.

[karahiri]

yeah, that's my preference

[Asker]

So you like muslim guys?

[Omar5881]

Would you date a Nazi? That's pretty much how this question is heard from people ya know coz Isis and shit , it sucks but that's how it is
