Women are more of a sceptic, and caution of when it comes to both men or women, and for different reasons, I think. They are more likely to observe and try to understand at first. While men may come across different women, as they more have an inborn desire to protect and care for women, and may find it easier to get along women than men at first as well. I am just taking an educated guess 😊. So happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay in JA. God bless
I can't get the song "Positive Vibration" by Bob Marley out of my head. In case you or others don't know a "Rastaman" refers to a "Rastafarian". Rastafarianism is a religious movement among Black Jamaicans that teaches the eventual redemption of Black people and their return to Africa, employs the ritualistic use of marijuana, forbids the cutting of hair, (hence the dreadlocks) and venerates Haile Selassie as a god."
Hello M J. If you'd like to understand the people of the island, research the 'Maroons'. It will also enlighten you as to why there is no help for the people of Jamaica, Similar to Haiti. There are documentary's on the history of the Maroons but, find one with an African american who documented the story. I feel its the only way to get the true story. Peace and Blessings and always, keep exploring.
Like Taiwan... go there... the people are soooo friendly and so safe for women even at 3:00 am at night... so convenient and so high tech... easy internet
Grazie Maria, I have Jamaican friends who tell me I should go there. I have a strict diet because of health issues and they've told me most of their food aligns with my health stuff. Since then, I've dreamed of being there. Your videos are always really interesting, whether it's Iceland, NYC, or hangin with the fam in Friuli.
@@WhatashameMaryJane I have a few issues.. ha ha.. but one of the worst is I get sharp stomach pain and other symptoms from eating gluten. I watch all these NYC food videos and drool but can't eat at least 60% of it without reacting. So feel that my travelling in some ways is limited. I found out from my friends I could probably go there and have very little problem because most of their eating isn't based on or around gluten like a lot of USA/Canada. Even gluten-adjacent stuff will make me unwell. Sadly I will probably never get to taste a cronut. But I love the idea I could go somewhere and mostly not worry. And like you said, nicest people in the world.
I am Jamaican and I am wondering if though we are down to earth if you get to know us (women), could it be that we are not as trusting or open to strangers like our men are.
Rasta is pretty common and came from the countryside of Jamaica. It’s the old moving into town over time. The difference between the city Rasta and countryside Rasta is the way they do things. Countryside Rasta is slow paced with little hurry but none of the over the top attitudes of city life. City Rasta is high paced and over the top stuff they wear if you notice in nyc. City Rasta is like you do it because it looks cool. Unfortunately Rasta is somewhat connected to the legalization of cannabis and the fight do so in the entire US. Florida has been in a state battle on this issue before and I don’t think it’s changing much although it’s now partially legal as in we can use for medical purposes and carry small amounts but we can’t grow it nor carry beyond certain amounts. The main person behind the movement has been famous lawyer John Morgan of the law firm Morgan and Morgan. John is a good man but legalization of cannabis has been his goal for several years.

Interesting question about women in Jamaica. What you observe is most likely a coincidence, but some Jamaican women may think that a White woman visiting the country have Ulterior Motives, and some may have inferior complex with White women.
"InferiorITY complex with white women", why? Cos white women are somehow superior? Perhaps that's why Mary Jane feels ENTITLED to parade around the globe expecting these inferior beings to roll out the red carpet in deference to, and celebration of her superior whiteness! Why not ask Google about the role of Jamaican women? You'd see that 80+% of them graduate from university compared to men. You'll see that Jamaican women are numbered among the top executives worldwide, claims the UN. You'll see that Jamaican women have no time or patience to hang around bars in the middle of the day to smile and nod at the fragile Mary Janes of this world, they have better things to do, like work for a living. What a shame Mary Jane!
