I think we think they are unromantic because we girls have watched too many romantic movies and have read so many romantic novels and these guys cant match up with these nearly perfect fantasy men.

sweetpie23:

call me whatever but I think African men are really unromantic. 95% are unromantic

Tsiya:

what do you mean by romantic?

Do you mean going to a bar, getting drunk?

Or do you mean what you read and watch on television?

These are fairy tales. It doesn't happened in real life.

What can you say about the broken marriages and single mothers in the western world? Is it all part of romance?

Generalisation base on few assumptions is wrong. Most African are realistic. Giving a flower to a girl doesn't mean anything. It is just a plant, to us it doesn't define romance. Romance is dedication to the need of a woman.

Kenny_G:

na una sabi! men are unromantic, they are tight they are this they are that! Like african women are perfect themselves! The oyibos who are the standard of romanticsm we know what becomes of their women dont we?
Just appreciate the african man for what he is and stop harping on his so called weaknesses

Kenny_G:

isnt that a generalisation? and in any case what may be romantic to you may not be to another. I think in general african men can be romantic, and just because some dont fancy all these holding of hands stuff doesnt make him stoic.

And like i said, ive lived with many a white folk who do all these romantic stuff and still treat their women like shit!

TOPE2000!:

Lol . . .ok maybe the poster is generalising but most naija men arent romantic and being romantic has got nothing to do with holding hands abeg even tho most naija men still find it difficult to do. its like u lot have something to hide, i dont know i have dated unromanntic guy b4 so i kinda understand where the poster is coming from.

True that

Give me five examples of what you can call romance
