[QUOTE]Originally posted by ElQahiralilly: [QB] phew ok....I didn't expect so many replies...but here I go... Tdogg-I will take your "too much" makeup for consideration....I appreciate your opinoin... Fareed-maashi Hal habibi...to answer your question about the lower egyptians...From personal experience upper Egyptians do feel somewhat resentful...because of the economic status of the lower Egyptians...upper egyptians are usually not that well off...so of course it leads to jealousy...also...to Muslim upper egyptians..they sort of look down at Egyptians that are from the cities because they feel that are too "loose" with their morals....I think you know that already....Upper Egyptians are very conservative...But nonetheless they look at them as brothers and sisters and will treat them with respect and like family..it is said that the Aswanis are that most friendly in Egypt [IMG]http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/wink.gif[/IMG]....Alhamdulilah [IMG]http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/smile.gif[/IMG] Cobra-I am sorry that you are offended by my way of dress...I do not need Islam in my life...I have Jesus...and he is all I need...so how dare you impose your religious intolerance on me...just because someone acts or dresses differently does not mean that you have the right to judge...God is the only judge... And I think there was a question on whether I was Muslim or Coptic....Yes I am Coptic.. Ausar-I think your perception of what an Aswani should look like is confined on how your family looks like...I have read numerous posts on this forum and it always seems to me that if someone is not dark enough...then their REALLY not an Egyptian....thats crap...My family is from Aswan...some of them lighter and considerablly darker than I am....but they are all Aswani...so it is a insult to me that you did say that I didn't look Aswani....then please tell me.. wallah...are all Aswani supposed to look exactly the same? If you are truly Aswani you will then remember that even in the South of Egypt our color of skin ranges... anywho...I agree with most of you that the orignial Egyptians were dark...not black per se...as in central black africans...but more East african looking...but be careful how you display your opinions...because to the native Egyptians it is insulting to say that one is not really egyptian because of the color of their skin...that they are too light or dark...they are all Egyptian...just realize that there are different definitions on what the term dark skinned or black is....for gosh sake...I got latino..to mulatto to Italian...goes to show you that our perceptions are quite different... salam [/QB][/QUOTE]
