Nigerian Men: Respect by DaPhoenix(f): 6:36pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
I asked this question before but I had no responses. What exactly do Nigerian men deem as respectful? I ask because many people on this forum throw this word around a lot. 1 Like 1 Share |

hahahaha Ruby, you're freaking hilarious. I'm serious though I really want to know. |

DaPhoenix:LOL, ok, on the serious note, I don't know. . . .or I might have an idea, just not sure. But I am darn sure I won't sit around and let a man walk over me all in the name of respect. 2 Likes 1 Share |

chamotex:Of course, Naija man for sho' |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by vicade(m): 7:26pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
Naija man? Maybe. But i doubt the naija women of nowadays will fit the Woman tag in that Dialogue so i presume it might be a Nigerian Man with a Non-Nigerian Woman |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by DaPhoenix(f): 7:31pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
vicade: You got it twisted. A non-Nigerian woman won't do any of that. If you're hungry, go to the kitchen and make something to eat or you come back home when the whole family is eating. 2 Likes 1 Share |

vicade:I seriously hope so. We, Nigerian women, should not take that kinda crap from you men |

If you love your partner respect will come naturally. Its a two-way street. 1 Like 1 Share |

DaPhoenix:Thank you. A designated time should be establish for the time the woman cooks so the family can eat together. anything before, between and after that, the man/his children can go to the kitchen and find some snacks to eat. 1 Like 1 Share |

davidylan: I know that but I feel like there is a different manual for Nigerian men lol. HeatFusion: I have raised knowing that everyday by 7:30 pm everyone goes to the dining room to have dinner. If you're late, pray that there are left overs 1 Like 1 Share |

DaPhoenix: I was trying to say most Naija girls especially the working class and educated wont take such.Unless they are Old Cargo,Illiterate and Desperate. |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by agaba123(m): 7:38pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
David thanks my dear. You will find it difficult to respect someone you do not love. Love no be Bleep Now if the love is both ways, the respect will flow naturally but if you as a woman gets hitched with a man you love who does not love you, he may get away with disrespecting you like in that dialogue(though exaggerated) |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by DaPhoenix(f): 7:40pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
vicade: When you call them such names when they do do it, how do you expect them to show you that "respect"? |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by drrionelli(m): 7:45pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
This is interesting to me as North American. Help me understand something: In the US, respect is not an entitlement, but rather, something that is earned. Is respect viewed the same in Nigeria? 1 Like |

drrionelli: Yes |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by Nobody: 7:50pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
DaPhoenix:Lmao. . . .if there's no left overs, noodles are in the kitchen But on a serious note, like my house, there's a closet obtained to snack. morning, brunch and after dinner. Just incase one of us does not have the time to eat. meeting, outing, etc. It's all in arranging your kitchen o jare. And your time, ofcourse 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by DaPhoenix(f): 7:59pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
drrionelli: Exactly. I keep having this feeling like Nigerian men think that because they are men, they have to respected and we (women) have to be submissive (ugh, I hate that word lol). I look at threads and that is all I see. @all, I need to know, 1) Would he find it disrespectful if I asked him to start cooking because I am stuck in traffic or even, help me out in the kitchen when I am cooking? 2) Would he find it disrespectful if I asked him to do the laundry? 3) Would he find it disrespectful if I told him I really don't want t have sex but I'll rather cuddle and talk? 4) Would he find it disrespectful if I told him that I feel his mom has been visiting too frequently? 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by vicade(m): 8:04pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
DaPhoenix: That is the use of courtship. A guy that does not do all these in courtship is not expected to do it in Marriage though i personally think you are right except your fourth point. The approach to issues matter and in as much as people pretend, during courtship, you should be able to see these things unless of ofcourse the person is non chalant or a desperate old cargo. I know a lot of working class wives who dont cook for their husbands. They leave that to the House Maid. Is that Disrespect? 1 Like 1 Share |

vicade: Is he complaining? |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by DaPhoenix(f): 8:10pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
Would he find it disrespectful if I happen to earn more than he does? |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by SisiJinx: 8:11pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
DaPhoenix: 1) Yes, a man is not supposed to step into a kitchen let alone touch a pot. 2) Yes because he is a man and doing Laundry is the dirtiest job ever. 3) Yes because he is a man and only his needs, wants and urges matter. 4) Huh? I mean seriously. . . HUH?!!! \ His mom visits frequently? HIS OWN MOTHER?!! All jokes aside, this is disrespective to everyone. . . man, woman and child. Come now, I'm all for Rah! Rah Reh Reh I am a woman hear me roaaaaaar but this is pushing it. |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by vicade(m): 8:12pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
DaPhoenix: Of course not. But if you rub it in his face then that is disrespectful |
Re: Nigerian Men: Respect by SisiJinx: 8:13pm On Jan 19, 2009 |
DaPhoenix:Well obviously, we are talking about someone with major issues here. . . more than the usual being a Nigerian man issues here. Where did you find this guy??!! |
