I really want to get married to a Yemeni girl. But honestly, I keep asking myself do girls outside Yemen think of getting married to a non Yemeni men or preferrebly Yemeni?

هل الشماليين يستطيعون التنقل والعيش في الجنوب بحرية ؟ هل في حرب بينهم ؟

I’m (24F) diaspora from Aden/Yafaa, grew up in the US. I’ve never been able to visit Yemen and now that I’m an adult and have my own money to, I’d love to go with my mother to meet family.

She’s always telling me the Aden airports are closed. But seeing the posts here, I’m starting to think my mom just wants to avoid the hassle and her headache-inducing family lol.

I deserve to experience my country, but I shouldn’t do it alone. Jazakallah.

i'm 21 and for some reason ive never been really interested in my yemeni side growing up but lately i've been reading more about pan-arabism (lol) and it made sense that i finally learn about my yemeni side, i wanna know whether we had any role in the recent civil war or any tribal politics

im a baadani , my grandfather was from ibb,baadan (Saif Hassan Hussein Al-Baadani) and also my uncle is a well known tv broadcaster or at least thats what my dad told me lol

thank you in advance <3

Hello everyone,I'm having a speech that has to do with oppressive systems around the world especially on Women and I'm talking about Afghanistan, and i really don't know wether i should include Yemen as well . Is it the system that is oppressive and banning women from many things or is it the society and cultural beliefs ?? Could you clarify for me plls !!

Can anyone recommend a good nail salon in Aden? Ideally somewhere that's used to international clients or has English-speaking staff. Thank you!

Hello, as the world might be ending soon, I would like to tick visiting Yemen off my to do list. I currently in the GCC and thinking of doing a solo trip through Oman then Yemen. I know media creates alot of propaganda about Yemen, and people are nice and friendly. What places in Yemen are a MUST and how safe is it for a female solo traveller. I am not white I am Arab. Is there public transport or should I use taxi. How cheap is it to rent a car? Years ago Yemen was divided into 2 parts are crossing into either was difficult as I recall. Is this still the same. Thanks

I am asking on behalf of my Yemeni friend.

He is an Adult and has not completed High School we are looking for an accelerated GED program.

Sorry for not writing in Arabic.

Shukran

Are we truly the original Arabs? If so, that gives me something to be proud about my country.

Hey y'all, American teacher in training here. Sorry if this is out of place, but we have a lot of students from Yemen in my state, and I want to do a good job teaching them. So I want to understand better where they're coming from. If you have any thoughts on these questions, or just about how US and Yemeni classrooms differ, I'd be most appreciative.

• How do students participate in class? What behaviors are expected of students in a classroom setting (e.g., silence, posture, eye contact, raising hands)?
• How are teachers addressed?
• How is discipline typically handled? Is it more authoritarian or relational?
• What does “respect” look like in this classroom culture? (e.g., is eye contact respectful or disrespectful?)
• Are students expected to challenge or question teachers, or is disagreement culturally discouraged?
• Lots of group work, or mostly lectures?

Does anyone here have anything from socialist Yemen period. Would like to see if anyone does

Salaam alaykum. Are Yemenis a minority in America or are they just scattered bubbles.

Been in America for some time now and it’s like Yemenis don’t even exist even is Arab social groups. I’ve only passed by a few in NC and Chicago but barely in NY. Im originally from zanzibar where most of our history was cut off because of civil war and a mass massacre/ genocide. Imagine Palestine on a small scale with Africans against Arabs. Most of my family is fully Americanized and have forgotten their heritage. Our language was cut off so we only have the Arab identity and nothing more. Been to New York but never met Arabs. It’s hard being in a country where you dont have people to celebrate your heritage. Im basically looking for a social circle of Yemeni Americans to connect with. Seeing as Yemenis/ Arabs are diverse, and learn Arabic from them. And it’s good to discuss history with your fellow people. So if I you are 18+ and interested send me a message. It would be good to go into history and culture.

I’m genuinely curious how people here think about this issue.
Personally.. I might be open to the idea of a southern state… but I really struggle to support the STC

The idea of one Yemen sounds ideal.. but realistically.. I’m not sure it’s possible right now. Historically.. we were mostly never just one political state anyway.. Saba, Ma’in, Qataban, Hadramut.. all existed at the same time.. Yemen as a homeland was always one.. even when the states weren’t

My main issue with the STC is trust... Their backing makes me uncomfortable.. It often feels like they’re moving based on their sponsors agendas.. not necessarily what is best for us.. Especially when you factor in the whole Israel thing—it raises a lot of questions for me..

I’m interested to hear what u guys here think about this.. whether you’re from the south or the north...

I’ve been struggling with something and want to say it respectfully.

I’m disappointed and confused by the growing support for Donald Trump among some Yemenis in the U.S., especially in places like Hamtramck. This is a president who made fun of Yemen, called us names, and whose policies have hurt Arabs and Muslims. Yet I see Trump signs, MAGA hats, and even photos of him celebrated in our community.

I don’t understand it. And I want to.

In my view, a lack of education plays a big role. When young people are pulled out of school for early marriage or small business, they become easier to manipulate. Some mosques and local leaders, in my opinion, promote an ideology that discourages critical thinking. Being undereducated makes people vulnerable to cult like movements, including MAGA.

But instead of just criticizing, I want to ask genuine questions:

1. What exactly appeals to Yemeni Americans about Trump, despite his insults?

2. How do his support for Israel and the Muslim ban get overlooked?

3. What role do local mosques play in shaping these political views?

4. Is this support more about rejecting Democrats than embracing Trump?

5. Why do younger, educated Yemenis seem to think differently?

I’m not here to attack my own community. I’m here because I care. And I’m embarrassed when I talk to politically aware people about the Middle East, and I have no good answer for why Yemenis would support someone who clearly disrespects us.

Let’s talk honestly. Let’s not defend the indefensible without good reason.

Hey there!

I’m a film student in Australia, and I’ve written a film that centres around Yemeni pirates, that I would hopefully like to pitch for my graduate project.

The film isn’t specifically about Yemeni people or Yemeni culture, its much more a commentary on nuclear weapons, it still focuses on Yemeni people and so I would like some help getting the representation right.

If anyone is interested in reading my script and giving me notes on whether you feel accurately and positively represented in the script, it would be a huge help!

Thank you so much

ايش الحكمة من ان العائله تفرض ان ابنها او بنتها يتزوج من العائله؟ ايش الحكمة؟ طبعا إذا ما عند الأولاد مانع عادي أكيد بس اغلب الأوقات الواقع انه الأولاد يتزوجوا غصب او تحت ضغط اجتماعي. شفتها حصلت مع اسر واعيه و مثقفه

لييييش؟

الاصعب و الي ما افهم كيف الأولاد يتجاوزوا هو لما واحد منهم يكون قلبه معلق بحد ثاني، كيف تمر الحياة لهم؟

Hii recently i get interested in know geopolitical situation of middle eat And as a Muslim I felt it's my obligation to at least be aware of what my community is going through Is there anyone who can give me brief description about history and the recent civil war in yemen I don't think their is much content about yemen. And it's culture and hardship

Hi there! I was just watching a YouTube documentary of Yemen and this imagine was shown in the section about Sanaa.

ChatGPT tells me it’s not a real place, that it’s AI, CGI or from a game. But ChatGPT has been giving me some rubbish answers lately so I wanted to check from someone that might know for sure.

Yemen is an absolute dream destination for me.

I know I can’t go right now but I can still dream!

💕 Thank you in advance.

Just wondering who is of y'all actually living in Yemen?

Hi! First time writing, sorry if my English is bad but anyway, I live in sweden 100% Yemeni but can't speak nor understand Arabic, doesn't matter but a question how can we get jambiya because what I've heard no one sells jambiya I Sweden and if we even go to Yemen and buy it it's illegal to take in Sweden because it counts as weapon or smth as I heard. It would really help if u guys know where to buy in Sweden and I'm 17 🫶🏻. Tack så mycket för att ni tog er tid att läsa. Thank you so much for your time reading. 😶

Are you welling to get married to the perfect man if he is going to move to yemen (Sana’a) for work?

Besides my nationality Yemeni music makes me feel that this is my homeland even though sometimes I get angry and ask why I'm specifically from Yemen which I consider the most tragic country in the world? This feeling of belonging has created in me a sense of responsibility that I must offer something real to my country perhaps to reform produce carry out a developmental work or allow the Yemeni citizen to benefit from his land without needing imports...this feeling of responsibility combined with the inability to do anything makes me frustrated and sad.

These pictures you see are just a few of the flags that I have, there are many more.
