Is the hot blood that some southern people pride themselves of an escape to deal with emotions? An excuse to be abusive and violent instead of dealing with the issue?

southern where?
hot blooded doesn't = abusive and violent, abusive and violent comes in hot or cold.

What ecactly is 'hot blood'? A measurable higher than normal temperature causing a kind of brain damage? Or is it the lack of self control and reckless irresponsible behaviour verging on psychopathy that is seen in men [mostly] that are badly brought up, and often found in men living in the psycho prison of political dictatorships? When one percieves that they have so little social freedom, so restricted in methods to actually deal with problems, such small ambitions, personal boundaries can be criminally stretched. If you can't 'speak out' to anyone in authority, you can sure as hell go home and kick your wife and kids around. On a more sympathetic level, if all you got is your 'manhood' your 'machismo' you will use it and abuse it in your personal life.
I humbly submit this paper to the Lancet for possible publication ...
Oh sorry, got carried away there. Just my opinion.

No Anthro it is not. My husband is as hot blooded as they come but I have never seen him hurt a fly (oh well the odd mosquito!) let alone lash out at a person. I think hot boood is something that does exists and makes these people react differently to how we might but that does not mean they are not well bought up or can't control their emotions.

I've noticed Egyptian husbands handle situations very differently when they are in Egypt versus when they are abroad in your nation.

Is that from personal experience? I didn't think you'd ever been in Egypt at the same time your ex was.

I think that 'hot blood' refers to people who are very exuberant and passionate but the term can be abused by people who refuse to control themselves and want an excuse to lash out.

We all get a bit hot-blooded living in Egypt, we all learn to yell and rant. it's just loudness, but violence and abuse.. that's something else.. and unacceptable in ALL circumstances.

Actually thats correct, until we were divorced we weren't in Egypt at the same time.
Luckily I can learn from your mistakes!

And what mistake would that be? being in Egypt and actually being with my husband?
I thought your ex said he would never set foot in Egypt again, so how has he been there with you since your divorce? If you'd never been there with him before your divorce, which one of you took your daughter to live there? didn't you both at least do that?

If he lived with you night after night why do most of your comments post in the very late evening or wee hours of the morning?
Is he back to work? Did those fellucas get the official go ahead to undock? Or is he still out of work?
Or is any of that money left over after he closed down the "cafe" you invested in?
I can't imagine how easy it is to be married to someone who is home a few nights a month, barely speaks english, you don't speak arabic, and he refuses to use the internet to communicate with you during his work absences.
Less opportunity to communicate, less opportunity to fight right?

Is hotblooded the same as hotheaded, but a way of dressing it up so it sounds like a positive trait? Isn't it basically when someone reverts to childlike behaviour, speaking and/or acting without thinking and being ruled by their emotions?
I don't think it's exclusive to southern men...

so you can't answer what mistake of mine you seem to have learnt from, no worries. Is one not allowed to use the internet at night when hubby is home? Btw it's 8.30am and he's asleep next to me here.

He doesn't work on a felucca, they have never stopped the feluccas working, or the cruise boats or any other boats, where did you get that from?
quote:Or is any of that money left over after he closed down the "cafe" you invested in?
lol another one like all the money I made from a charity event?

he's here more than he's not, his English is great, my Arabic is reasonable and we use things called cell phones while he's away.

we don't fight, we do have humps and sulks but we don't fight.
So, didn't you both go to Egypt together the first time with your daughter? Are you saying that the first time you met his family you were alone, without him?
