dytbabe: Why? Just interested in the reason for your objection to flowers and by the way, what would be the "Nigerian' equivalent of this for those who say it is a white or western thing? |

Re: Flowers For You by maclatunji: 1:24pm On Sep 22, 2014 |
dytbabe: I see you are looking at it from the: "what is the benefit to me?" angle. Let us look at it this way: your husband knows you are not hungry, you can buy whatever you want and he also buys you stuff. In addition to all of this, he thinks a bouquet of flowers are beautiful and looking and probably smelling them might make you feel good in its own unique way and he sees it as a symbolic gesture showing his love and caring about you. Besides, they will not wilt (at least not immediately) if you place them in a vase with water. What do you say to this? |
Re: Flowers For You by Nobody: 1:25pm On Sep 22, 2014 |

NinoBrown888: jes wondering the equivalent or value of a bouquet of flower to a Nigerian gurl ,, Yeah, they have not answered the question. Flowers are more about symbolism, like they have rightly observed, they are not edible. However, the symbolism seems lost on them. 1 Like |

marieolae: hahaaa dirty boyy loolBad mind How did yu know what I was talking about |
Re: Flowers For You by maclatunji: 1:33pm On Sep 22, 2014 |
3cycle: Materialism vs. Symbolism. The things you have listed are material. However, the flowers though not abstract are actually symbolic in nature. I hope you get this explanation. |
Re: Flowers For You by dytbabe: 1:34pm On Sep 22, 2014 |
maclatunji: Pls tell me what it symbolise western man Flower ko, seed ni Why not kuku bring a tree na |

Re: Flowers For You by maclatunji: 1:38pm On Sep 22, 2014 |
dytbabe: Trees are heavy, not so beautiful and would probably crush you to death. What he is saying is: "If you say no to flowers because you think they are not a Nigerian thing, what symbolic gifts do you value that do not involve you actually eating or using them as a tool, gadget etc?' You would drive a car and use a phone to communicate/socialise. Hence, they are not symbolic but functional gifts. |
