Flirtatious Behavior of Men and Women

wa alaykum us-Salaam
:wasalamex

On topic though, jazaakillaah khayr for the article sis.
wa iyyaki

One never knows, Allahu knows best and that which is unknown for us today.
yh, but you should just stick to what has been told in the hadeeth, etc without gong into our own interpretations...if you do, at least back it up with a word of a scholar :)

soz, i still have to reply to your PM :-[
 
:sl:
Hmmmmm. Very nice reminder, mashaAllah. I take exception to the use of hyperbole:
I have never seen a woman in any place who senses that a man is looking at or listening to her, except that she begins to gesture in a way that she not normally gesture, and begins to make remarks the likes of which she was not making before, and you would see her pay more attention to how she articulates her words and how she varies her postures - in an obvious and non-subtle manner.
Seriously? Never seen a woman who does not aim to flirt with any random man? Seriously, how about your own mother, sisters, or daughters? I understand the purpose of the exaggeration, but it's that same exaggeration that can be a tremendous turn-off to some sisters listening in. It makes it sound like Islam is so condemning of women...of course, we all know this to not be true. And the other thing that bugs me: the title of this article is "Flirtatious behavior of Men and Women." But, there is only glancing reference to the behaviors of men. Makes women sound so darned evil, which of course we might be...but it's a two-way street: there is no supply without demand.

I just noticed that this is from ibn Hazm, and as such it is not something I would criticize. I am sure there was more to what he wrote than this. I wish the source quoted had provided an equal amount for the other gender :)

I think most brothers are scared of me...and I never get it when they are interested in me. My friends sense it three weeks before I do. LOL....I only realise that a bro is interested in me when he asks me. Funneh.

That is to say that I do not flirt. Ever. I wouldn't be able to even if I wanted...I just don't work that way...and I guess this freaks some guys out.
 
Jazaakillaahu khayran for the reminder sister

Asalam Alaykum Warakmatulah Wabarkatuh

That is the answer why there are going to be more Women in he'll.

No brother, this is not why ,,,,

Indeed, women will be more in jannah as well as they'll be more in hell because of their number. Muhammed pbuh has stated that before the day of al-qiama, the number women will be a lot more than the number of men.

I would rep you but I can't give any at the moment!
Jazaki Allah khair sis, I completely agree.
 
SubhanAllah, the guys in my college sit back waiting for the girls to flirt, then lap it up when that wish is granted. The high pitched squealing and echoes of "That's so funny! Hehehehe!" is enough to drive me crazy. But the guys encourage it all by walking around as if they are God's gift to women. Huh. ^o)
