CATENA DI SANT'ANTONIO?

Sono le 11.30 del mattino e avrei tutt’altro da fare ma devo assolutamente condividere con voi alcuni brani espunti da una locale “catena di Sant’Antonio” (che qui si chiamera’, immagino, diversamente. “Catena del Califfo Omar”???) appena inviatami dalla ‘praticante velata” Nisreen Al Kanbashi.
Presumo che l’intenzione dell’autrice sia quella di imitare le solite affermazioni femminili di indipendenza/autostima cosi’ care al mondo occidentale (“perche’ io valgo” e simili) ma, a contatto con la cultura locale, la vicenda si fa a tratti esilarante:

Titolo: IF A MAN WANTS YOU (e fin qua poco da dire)
Sottotitolo If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.
If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. (bah…)

BRANI SCELTI

Maltrattamenti assortiti:
“If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.”
“Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better. The only person you can control in a relationship is you.”

Coda di paglia?
“Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.”

Autostima?

“You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within.
Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...even if he has
more education or a better job.”

Proprieta’ transitiva delle corna

“Never borrow someone else's man.
Oh Lord! If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.”

Il mio consiglio preferito: semplicemente geniale!

“Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women.
He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant,
Why would he treat you any differently? “

Detto questo torno alle mie attivita’…per chi fosse incuriosito dalla vicenda, conservo il testo completo in Outlook!
