99cent: If as a woman you have ambition to become a very successful person, in some african countries, u will be called lesbian for having ambition. The belief is that only men are supposed to be poweful therefore any woman with aims to become successful must be a lesbian.
In the past, female PhD holders in Nigeria were called lesbians because they are trying to compete with men. Today, that is a ridiculous idea.

In the future, this whole anti-gay movement will also be a ridiculous idea

Well, it is accepted in Nigeria (if you are able to think outside the box). So long as gays exist in Nigeria (which they do), they will have accepting communities and have lives in ways any other human being would.
Are osu people accepted in Igbo land? NO. Do they live their lives? yes.

How do you know that you don't talk to homosexuals? You can't recognize a homosexual just by looking at him/her can you? hahahaha

well,I live in d USA and i'm heterosexual but I have gay friends and even gay co-workers. One of my math professors as a university student was a gay man.He is married to another gay man and they have an adopted child. They are just normal human beings. Some of the men are very effeminate. God created them like that. Will God make a mistake in creating man? NO.

In fact, in African culture before colonization, you have concepts like Yan Daudu in Hausa culture that was completely acepted. Today, they are called homosexuals or gay and are persecuted by society. You can see the same concepts in yoruba and igbo cultures if you do your research. They exist in all societies.

Societies that are most anti-gay tend to also be ones that are most repressive toward women. If you ever see a culture or society where women have rights (women like Fumni Iyanda, Chimamanda Adichie etc), you will see more acceptance of homosexuality.


Homosexuality does not exist in Igboland, if you are making atrocious, sacrilegious and fallacious statements you should at least have facts to back that up. I am full bloodied Igbo woman, and I am telling you that Homosexuality is a western concept, take it or leave it.

ok. It is starting to seem that you are on this thread just for attention. None of your posts so far are very coherent or sensible.
Do you know that in all societies, the most vulnerable (powerless) population statistically are children, women and elderly. Then in each society, you will have other vulnerable groups or "marginalized" groups based on religion, ethnicity (osu etc), sexuality (gays etc)etc
It is human nature to be wicked especially toward those who are less powerful than you. So I don't blame you. If Nigeria went after the powerful corrupt politicians with the same amount of venom that they go after weak members of society, Nigeria will be a developed country by now. Think about it.

In as much as I hate corruption and all that, I am telling you that there is no way I will equate homosexuality to that. I do not need to tell you if I talk against corruption or not, all I am saying is that, this is a homophobic country, I am homophobic and we say NO to homosexuality. Corruption or no corruption, wickedness or no wickedness. #dazall

And the end of the day its self esteem and self worth that reallly matters, so you are making zero sense by actually calling me ugly. I think you are running out of things to say, like I said call me when animals start indulging in homosexual acts and when micro organisms start reproducing homosexually. Until then you have no case to argue.

why do you say "we" instead of "I"?
you accept corruption, you accept wickedness because others are accepting it?
what about polygamy?

if rich men are involved in polygamy, it will be accepted. if rich men are openly involved in homosexuality it will also be accepted.
do you ever wonder why lesbians are more accepted than gays?

at the end of the day, you sound like someone who does not have the gut to stand for yourself. You go wherever the mob or crowd goes and the entirety of your argument is based on d idea that a large population of people in Nigeria agree with you.

People say Love and Romance are also western concepts. If they are right, then yes indeed, Homosexuality is a western concept.
Reason being that the idea behind Homosexuality involves two people of the same sex who are in love with each other.
In the past, the word that was used "sodomy" only involves the sex.
Sodomy or homosexual sex without love being implicated was rampant in Africa when the british came that the british had to ban it by law. Just plain sex where love or romance is not involved is nothing new to Africa or Nigeria.
In fact, there are places in Africa historically where men will have sex with other men as a spiritual act. Can you imagine. Of course they didn't call it homosexuality.

Last time I checked, they were arresting gay men in IMO state. yeah... homosexuality doesn't exist in igboland indeed.

GBAM!!
even ROMANTIC LOVE is considered a western concept

hence why homosexuality is seen as a western concept by those who are too blind to notice that heterosexual monogamous marriage based on love is also a western concept.

you don't seem to have any self esteem or self worth to begin with. Your whole entire argument on this thread is based on "we" statements rather than "I" statements. "we in Nigeria" this "we in igboland" that. I'm not asking what other Nigerians believe. I'm asking what YOU believe. If you have any self esteem at all, you will be able to stand for yourself and give logical arguments for why you hold your beliefs.

you are so DUMB that I had to shake my head by just reading this statement. Are you seriously this ignorant?
1.Homosexual behavior DOES exist in animals.
2. Do microorganisms have gender? what a dummy. in your mind microorganisms are divided into male and female. what a fool. You might as well ask us if the orange tree in your back yard is having sex.

My friend read my post properly before u vomit ur nonsense, I personally am "homophobic" because its is extremely unnatural, its pure madness that people like you are in a hurry to identify with just because the western world glorifies it. Polygamy is african and its very natural, I do not have a single problem with that as my culture is associated with polygamy. I am categorically and specifically telling you that homosexuals like you DO NOT have a case to argue. Don't even bother comparing that distasteful act with polygamy or even corruption those are natural acts and like I said before homosexuality is unnatural and so they are not on the same page.

Look for something else....

And so if all the bloody concepts you mentioned are all westernized? Are you that dumb not to actually decipher facts from fiction. What makes you think that the proper Nigerian/African was not and would have lead a normal life without the influx of your so called western culture? Do you read your history books? Do you know sh.it about your tribe? to spit out all this nonsense about homosexuality? sleeping with a fellow man/woman? Living with them? marrying them for Zap's sake and then buying children from sane heterosexual peeps? Does that not sound like madness to you? You really are ignorant and so hopelessly blinded in this ur quest of "westernization". All of this Nigerian/African concepts existed in the western world FYI, and still do, to a large extent. Let me tell you if you are ashamed of being Nigerian/African, you move you b.a.s.tar.d. I can guarantee that you will get asylum in the UK. Hopeless id.o.i.ot.

If you are so ahead in your fight for homosexuality, I dare you to come out and voice ur concerns, I am telling you arguing your case on Nairaland won't do sh.it. so bring it on......fo.ol.
