Nigerian women especially are nothing to write home about; but not all of them. There are still some of them who still have good home training in their brains while some have adopted an "INI EDO" & "GENEVIVIE NNAJI" kind of lifestyle -- living at the expense of men's wealth. Most of them haven't gone out there to see what it is like for women to be on there own. That's why they always have to endure whatever their boyfriends do because they are in there for the money.

Wow. I've agreed with you so far but what you shouldn't be doing is generalising.
I'm not sure if thats what you mean but how can you conclude that Ini Edo or Genevieve don't work hard for their money and wait for men to pay their bills? Is acting no longer an occupation?

No, I didn't generalize. If you look back into the comment I said ". . . but not all of them". Sorry I was wrong because I didn't indicate in the previous comment that I meant their lives in the movies. Acting is an occupation as prostitution too . . . it's all a matter of choice. All I know is a woman gotta hustle for her own money. If she has her own money and decides he wants a rich guy for a boyfriend, she well deserves it; because then we won't call it gold digging, we will call it "you dey find your level". So the Ini & Gen's comment was about their lives in most of their movie flicks, not their real life. I don't know them anyways.

Re: Must Girlfriends Demand An Allowance? by yjay(f): 2:41pm On Jul 21, 2009

Her dady and mum can do that, who takes care of those 'needs' b4 she met him?

My point is, that shouldn't be argued at all, no demand, she is not his wife or daughter.

Yes the bf should help without being reminded but it shouldn't be an issue.

[b] You see, this goes to confirm the question I posed sometime ago no one seems to air their views on probably, scared of what the responses might throw up.  The question was whether Nigerian women are as promiscuos as their men?  I don't need an answer now to that, thanks to SUGABELLE for clarifying things and gave us INSIGHT into how women in relationships can operate and manipulate their ways, into getting their needs sorted.  Thus, this only confirms that our women are as promiscuous if not more, than our men.  If they can sleep their way into fulfilling their needs whilst in relationships, why pretend not to be promiscuous?  By nature, we women have always been pretentious - the late FELLA RANSON KUTI said so in his music (Afrika woman go sey i be baby oo!lol).  So, guys you've all heard it now and there's no guarantee either that both rich/poor girls can not cheat in relationships if they wish to because, they would.  So, don't raise your hopes for any of the categories of girls mentioned - poor girls will always sneek at your back and do it anyway, and that's very dangerous this day in age.
On the other hand, a rich girl might sound a better option but that's not the case because, people with money as we all know, have POWER, power to do as they please, guys can you cope  Beware!! In my view, men should look for genuine Christain women, humble and truely God fearing in their ways - not the designer dress, fake hair, red lips and long finger nails type to which CLUB, I am a member too.lol!!! But hey, before you throw your insults and condemn me, having had a look at my picture on here let me say this, there is nothing wrong in having designer dress, red lips, long finger nails and fake hair if you pay for them yourself - nothing wrong, ok!  'YES I do have red lips, 'YES' I also do have fake hair, long finger nails I do not have and I don't wish to above all, this INDEPENDENT WOMAN WITH A CAREER paid for them all and that's the difference thus, there's no sneeking behind my man here, trying to have something I can not afford, Nayyyy!!! Take note!!

Get this right, i'm not against giving to gf, surely its normal BUT  it shouldn't be in 'shopping list' or part of the contract, saying: for being ur gf, this is how much u give me on monthly bases.

If u are too old to ask ur parent then u are old enough to provide for urself. Girls should not be used to depending on bfs, they willl not get much respect, love him without payment in return

At times like this u want a mature woman figure to make issues clear, i've heard from a few like spikey and TheBlessed. . .  Those are the kind of forward thinking people u really wanna identify with. . .  not anything in skirt and blouse that think they are indisposable!

Taking responsibility for what? Shagging u? is your own made of gold that he cannot look elsewhere? or wait. . .  for the priviledge of calling himself your man?

Stay there and keep waiting for responsibility, another correct chic will soon snatch him from u grin grin grin

Your answer about being responsible is way way way overboard!
What are u trying to educate us on? That a man's responsibility is measured by how much he gives as monthly allowance??

I want u to hit the nail on the head and stop going round in circles. . . so i repeat TheSeeker's question: How is it expected of him?

Simple question - pls give a simple and understandable answer!

There are two responsibilities widely accepted over a woman -- A parent's responsibility, when she's old enough, they hand her over to her husband who takes care of her until the day she dies(of course if they are still married). So which category does a guy taking responsibility over a girl belong? Please let me know. How about the girl take care of the guy? Oh we dare not bring that up and we shall hear different name calling here. A lady posted some days ago asking if she can giver her boyfriend money, we know what y'all girls said. Hypocrites!! Kudos to my good girls in the house. I'm proud of y'all.
Re: Must Girlfriends Demand An Allowance? by Theblessed(f): 4:50pm On Jul 21, 2009
[b]Yeah right, on occasions our men should buy us things for example, BIRTHDAYS, CHRISTMAS, EASTER, CHRISTENING CEREMONIES, WEDDINGS, sometime important functions etc, that's normal - not demanding a monthly salary from his very small wage that's absurd and defeats the idea of two people in-love. Unless if you don't love each other then re-classify your relationship as CASUAL in other words:  anything goes but be prepared for the implications of that!!

This girlfriend we are talking about, why can't she find a job, do any job no matter how small it pays and save her dignity instead of pretentiously selling sex to the guy whilst claiming to be a GIRLFRIEND that's wrong. Better show yourself up as a POLE and TABEL dancer rather than pretending to be what you are not 'AN INNOCENT, NICE GIRL' that has not not been touched by any man except him cool cool grin grin grin grin.  At least, the guy would know exactly where he stands, what he's getting and where to find you when next he needs you probably, on the POLE TABLE as simple as that - eeezy pee eeezy.
