eyaa, if it's your destiny to be with any, it must surely come to pass.
For what you said about them, you are very correct.
Thumb up
I would pray to God to help turn it around if it isnt my destiny. my love for ESAN as a tribe is uncomparable.

I hv elder sis. though they re both married bt til dis moment dey didnt allowed "i have a husband" to take over their thinking and hustling.

It is very true and still happens in edo/delta
till date. The painful part is women do this intentionally and they are wicked becos they make their husbands fall into it and before you know it, the man is dead. Another one they do is that becos they don't want to go unclad they do jazz turns their husband to mugu and she tell her already mumu husband to met his family to revoke the tradition bonding together in marriage so that when she sleeps about nothing bad will happen to her husband and children. Is that a marriage? Park out of the man's house, no, they want to remain there to answer Mrs. Most husband are in bondage. Very sad. May our sons' and daughters marry their father, mother, brothers, sister, friend, then husband or wife. Vice versa. Amen.

raayah:


In a civilized society, you hold the door if someone is coming behind you irregardless of thir gender. If you personally decide to hold the door for women, that's your problem, it's not a law.

Men do most of the hard work that involve strength because they are physically stronger than women. The same for jobs like nursing which are female dominated because women are more compassionate and caring than men..

It says a lot if you cannot even understand the basic biological differences between men and women.

Omon605:
1. Is a pure lie because i stays in abuja and my friends do come to visit most times and stay with us for few days. They used my wife wrapper to cover at night. Is fully accepted unless you have and interior motive. Is not forbidden in Ishian culture as you portrait

2. In Ishian once you are married nobody cares when you sleep with your wife. Anytime is allowed. No time is restricted and you are even encourage by both families to do it quick so that you can start having children, because that's the only problem I can't find in Ishian marriage. It is expected once you are married children should follow

3. Here to a large extent you are correct but no barbing of any hair and if the woman didn't confess on time she might loose her own life but for that of the children that had been revised and if the man or his suspecting the woman at all without telling his elders the man may also loose his own life. But if the man didn't know or suspect the wife in anyway he had know problem

4. If the woman confess to the husband alone without the husband family, the husband may loose his life. Once the woman confess to the husband or the husband suspected the woman at all he had to quickly alert his people and explain to them. If the woman didn't really do anything contrary she will be set free instantly and given some advice not to indulge herself in such unholy behaviour and sometimes the man will be punish for suspecting the wife. But once a woman indulge in the act and she confess and the husband still agreed to take her as his wife that's why they performed that ritual, naked the woman and takes her round the village by the women. Note : this is not a must but depending on the circumstances

5. Hmmmmmm, I understand why you missed this. Once the word cross a woman is mentioned in Ishian what everybody believe is you have slept with the woman. That's doesn't mean mere walking across a woman's legs is a taboo. You can walked across a woman's legs but you can't cross a woman (sleep)

6. That's is arm robber lie. This is just lie, if you steals your husband's money is between you and your God. Nobody cares, is not a taboo

7. Not truth at all. Anybody can sleep on your bed. Is not forbidden at all. Sometimes if the heat is too much I bring my foam outside and share with my friends. Is not forbidden if you wish to share with anybody. Fully accepted

8. Yes is forbidden if only you say it out. Is not a taboo, is just that some men used it as a means to punish their wives. No sting attached so long the man didn't announce the woman

9. I only had of this but never witness it. Even strangers bath with the same buckets th couples bath with

10. Sorry I just help you to number this. Is a lie my friend. Nobody tells you when to sleep with your during and after birth. I had a cousin whom first child is barely 11 months old and the have given birth to another baby. Am seeing some Ishian marriage attires on this your post and I believe if really you knew that couple very well it will help to provide an answer to this
You are very correct. Thanks for making these corrections...
Proudly Esan....

To all those loosers that often look for anything negative to say when it comes to a certain state or tribe but when its news about Akwa ibom or Calabar witches thing you guys keep mute. What about ijebu ,benin etc and the ones in your village preventing you all to progess in life. Esan rock and haters go and die. Those ones with negative stereotype are always the first to cast stones. They are some tribe who are into cannibal, rituals and etc. African and Nigeria ethnic groups all have some weird practices before Christianity came. The only problem here the rules only apply to the ladies.

From my own perspective, ESAN women are good; though not all of them but there re good ones. My wife to be hails from there, and i hv no regret meeting nor knowing her.
She is wat dey call a perfect gift and a backbone. She goes extra mile to make me happy, she hustle on her own without depending on my money. She marries church and church programmes like kilode.

I will continue to say it over and over again, that ESAN WOMEN are the best to marry. Far better than the IGBO LADIES.
I hail from IMO STATE; OWERRI
She is a pure ESAN LADY; EWOHIMI.

In my next world, i wish to be with her over and over and over again........



But remember, dey no dey chance dem ohhh, dey can change am for u.
If dey love u and sacrifice for u, den u re save.



Proudly OWERRI kum ESAN
