Dubai Bling's Ebraheem talks about redefining masculinity with respect and care

Recently, Dubai Bling's star Ebraheem was invited to the Business with Bartawi podcast, where he raised the topic of redefining masculinity so that the concept evolves to prioritize respect, care, and emotional strength.

He talks about how being a real man is not about oppressing women and making them feel unsafe. Instead, a real man makes a woman feel respected. The Dubai Bling star also points out how society plays a huge role in this.

"If you are a man, you would not want someone to look at your wife, your mother, your sister in a provocative way. The problem is if you were raised in a society who does not promote that feeling. That's when you become the way you are. But when are raised in a society where it accepts that feeling because that feeling comes by instinct."

Dubai Bling's Ebraheem then states an example of how instinct plays a part in protecting a woman and continues by saying,

"There's a video on [that] went viral on Instagram of this lady was twerking and her son saw her twerking in a crowd. He was maybe 9 or 10 years old. He ran to her mom, covering her.

He went on to say,

He's not Muslim. He's not Arab. He's American. In a society where that is okay but you feel that this is... what are you looking at my mom? The way God has designed us is that this is our duty to protect the women, not to oppress."

"So the whole oppression thing of Arabs oppressed a woman comes from a Western false narrative to make us look like the bad guy and to push their agenda. Now us... it is our duty as men to protect our woman as best as we can and give them the tools to become the best versions of themselves."

He wrapped up by talking about how people have made false narratives about Arabs always oppressing women. However, they believe in not only protecting woman but also making them confident enough to be their best versions.
