I heard some of our mummies can know if a girl has been pregnant before, or whether she has had a child already, just by looking at her naked. I'm so sure that's what she wants to find out.

That woman may be a les or maybe she want to day some kind of spiritual stuff on the girl or the op is telling a lie

pet4ril:
but she should not allow the said mother in law to give her any form of cut in her body to avoid been initiated or anything

Even if it's tradition, is it necessary...
For the mention above that is why I suggest the lady telling her to-be-husband also before she try it(me am not in support sha).
If she is a Christian, let her tell elder people or her Pastor if she don't want to.

One millionaire question..
What if the your Husband-to-be insist/support on you doing as the proposed... will you do it?

That something you don't hear everyday!
The lady should run from that family!

She should never allow such.

Abeg make your friend shift go corner. Because na only that family get marriageable son. Rubbish!

sweetorgasms:
Like seriously a female friend of mine just confided in me that her boyfriend's mom wants to see her unclothedness privately in the bathroom before she can approve their courtship, she said its tradition, though the lady in question ask her why is that and the woman just told her to obey, she is confused, sad and angry she told her mom and her mom dissagree to it, though her mom is not African, she is white but her dad is Nigerian, guyz what do you think the woman wants to do? do you think she should agree or just cancle her marriage? mature advice pls.

The mum might want to ascertain she isn't already pregnant and want to rope her son in, hasn't had any birthings somewhere else before and/or hasn't had any serious abortion that would affect her fertility.

Old women have this knack for knowing these things just by looking at the eyes,palm and Tummy.

They're both females, according to a tribe I know, all women are witches so she need not fear any attack.

So after that request was made she still thinks it is wise to marry into that family?
