Yorubas And Their Greeting Mentality by neolboy(m): 10:13am On Jul 14, 2015
Don't know if this is the right place and if not it should be pushed to the right channel.

Don't know why the Southwest attach too much importance in postrating when greetings and whenever they see you not doing that, they conclude that you lack home training. to me l see it as stress postrating and when you dont do that, does it mean you are not responsible.

What's your take on it.

The level at which we greet is equal to the level at which we insult.

So, greeting your elders in approved societal norm is a stress to you? what will it cause you to prostrate and greet your elders? You are now a learned person and you don't want to give approved way of respect to your elders? Guy, please wakeup before you start lamenting some wizards are behind your ill luck

If you are from southwest and you are born and bred in southwest, yet you cannot postrate (male) or kneel down (female) when greeting an elder then you lack respect .

I don't give a flying ffvck if you're Yoruba or not (though I doubt it). Why are you responding with a different moniker? ? ?
