Why Do You Prefer A "Graduate" Spouse...? by bigpicture001: 6:47pm On Apr 11
Like the topic asked..why the so much preference for a graduate life partner..?

A lot of people uses that as a bench mark
Re: Why Do You Prefer A "Graduate" Spouse...? by ThinkSmarter: 6:52pm On Apr 11
Personally, i prefer young ssce holders or nce trained graduates
I will always choose a younger woman with ssce before an older woman with degree.
Except she is still beautiful at her older age and definitely earning something.

your type of "virgin" woman are plenty out there... virgin toto but gang-banged anus or better yet, them corner street oloshoes with reconditioned hymen (aka vaginal reconstruction surgery).

the closer to university she's been, the better she will be for you...the further she is to higher education, the worse she would be. them pretty olodos are plenty plenty out there.
here is a clue: if your babe needs to bring out her phone to do basic math and/or if she cannot put a proper English sentence together, then you are on a long thing... simply dating a she-diot. na them, your gateman/houseboy/driver will chop tire!

as much as a degree may not be much to some, it will greatly help in your union... rather than someone bringing nothing but a dumb mind and/or someone who cant put two sentences together and cant do basic math.
if a woman cant do basic math nor cant write a simple English sentence, i can never be anything but a fukc buddy to such woman.

i understand that a lot of African men see an educated woman as a "too proud" woman or maybe a woman who would bring too much trouble/discussion to the family, but let me ask you this simple question: you have two identical women in every aspect whatsoever, but one has a higher education and the other has basic education....WHICH ONE WILL YOU CHOOSE (knowing that your options with one of them will be very limited jobwise)?

Its unfair of u to limit one of them by saying job wise....the biggest woman on my street growing up is a super duper baker....sh keeps doling out 10- to 12 steps of cakes for different wedding at every weekend....sh has more fhan 25 workers who constantly dole out breads for wholesalers who line up every morning and meat pie....this woman charges about 100k for her cakes in the middle 90's....

See..? Ur main problem is sing certificate as only means to wider wealth...

my blood elder sister bought a land in lag and build two houses on different lands...u know what she does...sh is an earth resource supllier I mean sh orders sand, gravels and etc to site where housing contruction is taking place...sh didnt go to university nor HND, but very eloguent, can read and write nd very reasonable ......

My other sis which works at access can't even marry at now 42, cuz in fact no one is compatible with her as sh usually blames it..to her sh usually sees my other sis as an idiot whose business blosom to aquire so much property by herself and still titled the ownerships Mr nd mrs okoye......to her, its her sweat and her money.......


So bros ,try thinking beyond certificate, and get a better wife...working hard is different from certificate

There are degree holders at 20, 21.
Are they older women too? πŸ€”

While being with a graduate is cool, I prefer a truly intelligent spouse whose mind is really sharp, with street sense. ✌️

thanks for the long epistle, now CARE TO ANSWER THE QUESTION?
as much as having an educated woman has absolutely nothing to do with money (but instead bigger future prospect), i can see that you misunderstood my whole point. even if your future wife never works a day in her life, the fact that she has a sound intelligent mind is highly rewarding to a man who will have to spend the rest of his life with her. the bigger her brain, the more interesting interaction you will have with her.

here is something absolutely mind twisting (to me) that many people (i wont say "sistas" out of respect) couldnt even solve without using a calculator/phone. ask your so called secondary school graduate the following simple math question:
if i go to the market and lady tells me that a dozen eggs is 12kobos, how many eggs can i get for 1naira?

Let me speak from experience, when I wanted to married degree was one of the criteria I used then, and not even HND I specifically said it must be a University grad. As a banker then, I saw how HND was being rubbish so I opted for a BSC holder.

Brethren, I can tell u with my full chest that was one of the greatest mistake in my life.I lost everything, I mean everything. She later left, cuz I lost my job and I can't provide for the huz. It took God in His infinite mercy and help from friends to make a way for me and I bounce back. Now, such criteria is not in my book, first thing is attitude, peace of mind, is she God fearing, etc.

May we not married wrongly both as a male/female. I tell u, all this saying she must be this and that will vanish into a thin air. I pray God give us a good man/woman as our spouse. Degree, wealth, beauty, just name it does not make a home or happy marriage life.

Beyond the charades, what makes a home is deeper than what will see. May God help us in Jesus name.

Re: Why Do You Prefer A "Graduate" Spouse...? by pansophist(m): 9:17am On Apr 12
Not necessarily a graduate but a spouse who is educated. Lots of people confuse certification with education. Lots of graduates (certificated individuals) are morons.

So an educated partner makes life easier. It's like the difference between the capabilities of an iPhone 15 compared to a Nokia 3310. Communication, comprehension, emotional intelligence, and duty, are easy with an educated partner etc.

You don't want a lady who is under the spell of her pastor or imam, or a man-child that leads his family through the influence of YouTube and his grandma.

You don't want to suffer from useless problems such as your spouse seeing your eloquence as "blowing too much grammar" or/and being proud.

The point of education is to refine yourself because, by default, every human is just like an unrefined diamond. Your education, character, religion, tradition, belief, etc makes you better and an asset to humanity.

Being a graduate or having a degree doesn't make one refined, it's just one of the channels of self-actualization, but not the only way. Many evils that plague the world are done by certificated folks who are scum.

Not just two heads, but two good heads are better than one. So yes, an educated individual will make a great spouse, but if the choice is between a good person who is uneducated and whoever, then the good individual becomes the ideal.

In marriage is not all about degree or an highly PhD holder

It is peace of mind, true friendship, just natural likeness for your spouse and most of all a determine heart of making a HOME.

If you miss it in marriage, you will regret half of your life.


Degree is good infact PERFECT but do not let your desire of it blind you from see other things.

Let the degree be the ice on the cake.
Be focus

Its been long ago I knew that educated ladies working with their certification marries only class, they don't care about the man..they care more about the societal levels and how peers view them....hence the class is gone, even if u are nice, they lose the desire for u....

Only fools marry certificate working ladies only for reason of being a working class lady....e go shock u
