Ladies, Will You Give A Man Money To Pay Your Bride Price?
Is it right for a lady to give their fiancé money to pay
their bride price or finance their own wedding? Is
scarcity of husbands a good reason to do so?
GUYS WHAT DO YOU THINK?

You are in dreamland, just wait till grey hair and wrinkles begins to appear, you'd see the logic behind paying your own bride price.

I have seen up to three women who not only paid their dowries, but imported the man.

Sounds harsh but you are absolutely right. He should do it all alone. When the time for wedding comes, the woman can help if she is bouyant enough.

Considering most couple will have been courting a while before marriage then I personally see no problem with that. Cos at some point they will have started putting their finances together, what is mine is yours and all that. So rather than it be 'your' money it will be 'our' money.

Then again why the bride price sef? Slavery still in existence undecided

^^ I hope u're prepared to marry an ape then.

It amazes me how thoughtless some people can be just to emphasize their views or opinions. This poor woman above me has just confirmed she'd rather marry an ape than assist a man pay her own bride price. Of course she neglected to clarify if the ape is exempted from paying the price.

And tomorrow, some domitilla who has been ''bought and paid for'', like an item in the market, will come and start shouting Gender Equality at me. Talk about stupidity...

If there is a man that would lower his pride and accept the money , no problem .
But for me , I won't
I would even prefer a scenario where the woman gives money to her 'friend' and encourage me (unknowingly) to borrow money from her 'friend' then both of us will pay back .
That way I know I'm borrowing on my terms and it is my money. Though this may be practically difficult

Na wa for the guys aproving this sha. How can a woman pay her gadamn dowry? Damn! Like seriously?
Do you know that it can inflate the woman's ego? Then she'll be rubbing shoulders with you. Tho there are exceptions.
A man should not even accept if she offers.

Speaking for myself, I'll rather ask popsy to reduce the price if he's not so bouyant.

^^ Thank you my dear, may our ancestors bless the breasts that suckled you and the man that raised you.

This is how a sensible person talks.

She points out the dangers of doing such (= you may lose your manly pride/respect), then she admits that there are exceptions (= not everywoman is a crazy feminist). And then she proposes a much wiser alternative (= ''daddy i dnt wanna be priced like a market commodity; my dowry should not break my man's bank'').

God bless u jare! If i wasnt taken already, i for begin ask for your digits and bbpin now... smiley

Honey look here,if a situation arises whereby a man is financially down,i think the best thing is to ask his fiancee to lend him some money is she is financially stable for d marriage arrangements on promising to pay back instead of going outside to wash their dirty linings in d public,as in asking people to borow.
Think abt it na,e get as e be..

Any woman who accept such, is paving way for a failed marriage... Cause the man will surely mock her, about it during arguments ...

Nah, bad move.
Re: Ladies, Will You Give A Man Money To Pay Your Bride Price? by Nobody: 7:15am On Sep 02, 2013
Yes, I will even give him money to buy the rings if I am really DESPERATE. never say ever ladies... I pray we will never find ourselves in such situation.

Remember Isaiah 4:1 says "And in that day, seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach."

This is not any woman's prayer but many women find themselves in this position. Sometimes, the man may really love the woman but he may come from a poor background. In such cases, the woman may step in and cover his unclothedness by funding the whole wedding. Some men pay their wives back with love and all they have when they make it and other men will use it to insult the woman by saying "she forced herself on me, she even paid her own bride price and bought our rings" Ladies, when you find yourself in this situation, seek biblical advise and make sure you will not commit a marrital error that will hunt you for the rest of your life. Remember marriage is a life commitment!

Tufiakwa right? You will get to understand the meaning of that 'tufiakwa' in this particular situation at some point in life.
