Non-ibo guys, what have been your experiences thus far with marrying ibo women?
Did you have to first build house for their father first or what? I've heard some horror stories, but I'd like to hear from y'all whats really going on with that.

I am Igbo woman married to Yoruba, no house was built I can assure you.

Not literally ofcourse, but theres all these demands.

How can the woman be respected afterwards when it feels like you are buying a slave? Doing away with that damnable "culture" would be one of the first steps to building a better country IMO.

nobody is buying anybody 2BUFF.
Bride price doesn't mean the lady is being sold. In some cases, the in-laws give back the money to the husband/ask for something very low.
It is a symbol of sort. It shows the value of the woman in the eyes of her family...and paves way to laying a foundation of respect(honour) when she's handed over to the semi strangers(new family) she would be entering into.
What you should say is that the people that still exploit such situations need to desist, and not look for condemnations from posters.
If the men marrying them don't like their culture, why do they come back for more/love to marry Igbo women?
Never heard of building houses or the sort.
Besides, if you encounter that, then quit, cos it is absurd.
