Why Can't A Nigerian Lady Make Advances At A Man? by Vicjustice: 7:27pm On Jan 24, 2011
Why are African Ladies so shy (or should i call it proud) to approach and make advances at men that they admire?
   I'm not saying that it's the best thing, but it is not a problem for western women to invite a man into her romance. .
   Now, i am yet to see that Nigerian girl who would make direct advance at a man and let him know that she desires to be with him; she would rather die in pretence while praying to God to direct the man to her. Why is it so?

the problem is only after the relationship ends

some men end up saying "you asked me out herself what type of lady is that, do you think i can marry a woman who asked me out ?" the funny thing is that they only say it after the relationship has ended


why do they turn down the move the moment the woman makes the move

Hi,
most ladies do approach those they admire but the main challenge is on our culture. Years back it was considered a crime for ladies to be seen on trousers, have their hair curled etc. Today, it's basically embraced so also will this issue be over time. Please if there's any lady interested kindly SPEAK NOW OR FOREVER REMAIN SILENT. George

I do not go after men or make advances toward men. It doesn't matter if it a Nigerian, Mexican, Italian, or Black woman. Many of us were taught not to approach men or make advances toward men. Men are the hunters not the women.

Do not get me wrong, there are women who go after men or make advances toward men but that a small percentage in comparison to men. I did not chase nor made advances toward my husband. He pursued me and were persistent. I believe that how it should be. Let the man pursue the woman.

Trust me ladies, if a man wants you. He will pursue you no matter what!

Our culture in Africa frowns at a girl making advances at a man. The tradition in most African countries is in support of a man making the first move and not the reverse.  It is the man that takes a wife and not a wife taking a man. When a couple decides to marry you will find out that the western-style christian marriage is not considered to be the real marriage. But rather it is the traditional marriage in which a man pays the bride price of a woman that is considered to be the marriage.  You could as well tell the woman to pay a bridegroom price to hook a man. So it is a product of African traditional beliefs. So do not compare African traditional beliefs with that of Europe and America they are different issues. smiley

Uhmm. Now can I say this delicately as possible. I do not mean any harm to those affected by my comments.

Naijaspeak,

I am all for loving your country and being proud of it. However, you cannot compare American, UK, and African marriages under no circumstance. America and UK is very diverse and we have every nation and creed in both USA/UK. The ceremonies are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT each time in USA.

Jews have their own marriage ceremony, Muslims have their own marriage ceremony, Indians have their own marriage ceremony, and plethora of other creeds have their own marriage ceremony. So again, when you say "western tradition" marriage, please remember to focus on the PERSON WHOM having the issue in THEIR MARRIAGE.

I get tired of people assuming America/UK have issues in their marriage while other regions have just as much if not equal the same shit. Africans are so quick to say "Oh, we do not believe in divorce and we believe in keeping the family united" Okay. Why are their too many African divorcees? Why are their too many African single mothers and fathers? Why are too many African girls having abortion faster than Mr. Chima changing his boxer? Why are African couples coming abroad getting divorce only to be on soil for a few months? If African culture is such STRONG, IRONCLAD, AND TIGHT KNITTED you should not be having these issues REGARDLESS WHERE YOU LAND YOUR FEET.

Fuckery is EVERYWHERE and it does not discriminate at all boo.

why do they turn down the move the moment the woman makes the move

and that is why most women, not even african ask men out, because men will say ish like that, or when something go wrong " well ur the one that wanted me"

Why are African Men so shy (or should i call it proud) to wash dishes, cook and do laundry for women that they admire?
   I'm not saying that it's the best thing, but it is not a problem for western men to do house chores for their gf or partner
   Now, i am yet to see that Nigerian man who would offer to wash a girl's pata and let her know that he is willing to baby sit, be submissive and do whatever else she would desire for him to do; he would rather die commuting to and from the brothel while praying to God to rain a submissive wife from heaven. Why is it so?

Re: Why Can't A Nigerian Lady Make Advances At A Man? by Vicjustice: 3:07pm On Jan 25, 2011
Actually, in all fairness, i think Nigerian men with their arrogance and poor mentality do not encourage the women to make romantic advances at them, a woman who makes advances at a Nigerian man is highly likely to have a lasting regret of the action
