Miss EZ: I dont have a problem with apologizing,infact if i am at fault, ha i will apologize with all my heart. But the whole kneeling down thing gets on my nerve. What is it that i cant say on my feet that i have to kneel down for and vice versa? No need to lose sleep about kneeling. Kneeling just shows more emphasis. Simple. If you wrong your man so much and you want to say you are truly sorry, its only natural you try to show emphasis. some people cry, while some buy gifts. some also kneel. Same goes when a Man is proposing to you ( just like you said). Couple of Men kneel. I like your comment though. Its your opinion and it isn't wrong... Its just so unafrican....You throw apologies anyhow you like and you accept peoples apology anyhow they throw it at you. No double standard. NICE |

Tut! Tut!! Tut!!! Too many egotistic liars on this thread. . . Kneeling is part of Nigerian Culture. You kneel when you are about to get married. You kneel when you greet elderly ones, then you expect to hop, swagger walk, stand and fold your arms while begging? Smh! A woman who kneels is not a coward neither is she a fool. She's only showing remorse over what she must have done to the man to warrant him leaving. The offence must have been very grave for her to go down on her knees. It's just a sign of respect. if she wasn't wrong, why beg to the extent of kneeling? Let's be factual here please. . . Any lady especially from the most respectful tribe, Yoruba, that says she cannot kneel and beg a man is not only a pathological liar, but also a dimwitted hypocritical liar! |

freecocoa: please go and lie down inside gutter,you didn't see the part where i wrote "never say never" abi? and when did i say it is wrong to beg?saying I've never begged any man kneeling down now means i've never begged before or won't beg a man?carry your nonsense pity where it is needed cos my man is not complaining. I wasn't refering to you MADAM. Do I smell guilty conscience? |

Thank God kneeling isn't a part of my culture. And if it was I wouldn't even kneel. Only ever kneeled in school and church. Doubt I will have a traditional marriage so hopefully, wont need to kneel. Yay me!! |

If you wronged your husband or boyfriend and you kneel and beg him, it melts his heart faster than hot knife on butter. . . |

dipo+: True that, especially when you don mess up biiiiiigggg time, and it is only begging that is the last option. Ω̴̩̩̩̥α to go on your knees oooo! But begging him, please don't go, don't leave meee for anoda babe! ( -̩̩̩͡˛ -̩̩̩͡ ) ( -̩̩̩͡˛ -̩̩̩͡ ) I will do mumu for you, wash, clean wipe your bum, anything ( -̩̩̩͡˛ -̩̩̩͡ ) ( -̩̩̩͡˛ -̩̩̩͡ ) !

Bending to beg a man to stay is completely different from bending to respect an elder. 1 Like |

kelz88: Maybe traditional wedding. . . .not a big part of our culture. And that's something I am not adopting. And even if I was to do it I wont kneel. . . .he should feel free to kneel and feed me pammie sha.Even if it is 0.00000001% of our culture, it's still a part of it and kneeling is not abominable. If you can do that to get married why can't you do it to make the man you married stay? Think about that. And errm, as regards him kneeling and feeding you pammy, how about you wake up from that illusion? Is your surname Joseph? |

Re: Can You Go Down On Your Knees To Beg A Man Not To Leave? by MissEZ(f): 10:42pm On Mar 19, 2012 |
gohome: Heres the thing, it does not take anything for me to kneel down for anyone, like i said in an updated post, i can kneel down as a sign of respect, but i really dislike the emphasis on kneeling down as a sign of remorse. I have seen people kneel down to apologize and make faces when the persons back is turned. So what purpose did the kneeling down serve. It is mere formality as far as i am concerned. The significance is not in the action in itself, it is in the motive or emotion behind the action. kneeling down to apologize is not always a sign of humility. In my culture, kneeling down is done for greeting purposes, during weddings, as well as when you are being prayed for. (a man prostrating in my culture is a sign of humiliation. so we do not do the whole dobale thing. The man squats or kneels during marriage. Same with the lady ) All the extra kneeling down is a judgment call and not a cultural one. My culture is more about the heart of the person, than the action which may not be a true reflection of what is going on inside a person. What you consider unafrican is something i learnt from my great grand parents and downwards. Different strokes for different cultures |

CalienteMi: Bending to beg a man to stay is completely different from bending to respect an elder.In most cases, the man is the elder. . . And even if he wasn't, Nigerian culture stipulates utmost respect from the wife. It doesn't make them less. It's just respect, and a sign of humility! |

Re: Can You Go Down On Your Knees To Beg A Man Not To Leave? by MissEZ(f): 10:56pm On Mar 19, 2012 |
~Killz~: Kills, would you want someone to kneel because it was part of tradition only? so pretend like you are sorry and have the action to match it as well. I agree that if someone has wronged another, they should be humble enough to apologize sincerely. I think that sometimes we all get caught up in actions that we forget that its the thoughts or the intent that really counts. By the way i am not saying that everyone that kneels down is pretending. I think that everyone should be permitted to apologize and express their apologies however they deem fit 1 Like |

Miss EZ: Lik I said kneeling down to beg whoever.. your dad, mum ,hubby etc shows emphasis.We all wish our parents goodluck.. but why do we greet them every morning when we see them. If you dont kneel because you think its formality, sister mi think again. Everything in this world can be abused. People greet you good morning and turn their back.... people marry and cheat the next minute... so like you said its not a bad idea at all to kneel. I think its a better idea. |
Re: Can You Go Down On Your Knees To Beg A Man Not To Leave? by MissEZ(f): 11:10pm On Mar 19, 2012 |
gohome: Not saying it is bad o, and i agree that anything can be abused. I am just making the argument that we emphasize kneeling down as if the action truly shows our intent. and in most cases it doesnt. |

I don't know why ladies out here keep lying pretending to be hardy while they break down in tears at the least beaf with their BF or hubby. They come out here and say hmm I can't beg him,why kneels down,he should go bla bla bla I know so many of them who cried,kneeled,even gather their entire families and friends to beg the BF/hubby to stop him from leaving. Why come here with your pride to lie on here,you can never be truthful for once,na wa |

Re: Can You Go Down On Your Knees To Beg A Man Not To Leave? by Killz3(m): 11:12pm On Mar 19, 2012 |
Miss EZ:No. I won't want anyone to kneel cos it was part of tradition. I dont really like women kneeling for me. But the op was fazed as to why women kneel. Yes, everyone should be allowed to express their apologies anyhow, but the fact remains that it is culturally acceptable, and it is the default for most Nigerian women. Since we cannot see thoughts or intentions, we base the offenders remorse by the extent they are willing to go to show that remorse. . . A simple "please i am sorry" can suffice, but the degree of offence varies from individual, and the heart condition of the offended also differs individually. Therefore, a simple "please" could give way to tears, kneeling, then crawling. . . It's all in a bid to make up! |
