Amaka G29:
We've been taught not to talk to strangers. The world has become a dangerous and scary place. I have to admit I tend to ignore men because when I am responsive they think I am interested in them. Most of the time when men speak to me in the streets there is a sexual agenda, which embarrasses and frightens me. I try my best to gauge the person's intentions from body language and manner of approach. Now that you bring it up, I'll make an honest effort to be more polite. All I ask is that in the same vein men stop harassing me in the streets.

991: I have noticed this incorrect social behaviour of young women towards men. When you stop a girl to ask her maybe the name of a street or the house No. you are looking for, she would first look at you from head to toe then walk away snobbishly, and some of them wouldn’t even give you attention. Just yesterday I was lost in a strange location and I tried asking passers-by to give me direction to my destination, I got the worst snub of my life-time just for asking for help.
The first person I saw was a girl in her late 20s I said ‘hello excuse me’ she just glanced at me and walked away, so embarrassing and I wonder why they have this rude behaviour towards men?

hajifaty: @topic, these girls are cranky and stupid. I don't understand why 9ja girls are so rude. The funniest part of it is that most of these girls r not well educated or pretty. Especially all these chewin gum bb girls. I dont talk to nigerian girls cuz they aint ready to learn. Eccentric pple.....

Ajekpako: well I've experienced this before and surprisingly its those who shld know better that engage in this shit! some of these ladies erroneously believe that every "excuse me" is a prelude to asking for a date . i was going to tell one she dropped her phone and t[b]he next thing i heard was "I'm not interested"[/b] , was shocked & confused cos all i said was "excuse me". ofcourse i kept the phone and made sure she learnt never to be rude to people especially strangers b4 handing it over.
the annoying thing is that its the very ugly mofos that are guilty of this!

Tul kafia: only if are not okay to her. And that means, you need to try others or another way. Just know what she likes and dislike.

dabrake: very daft. My mother's brain will be auctioned for at a very rich price cos it's largely unused. Now what's the correlation?

dasparrow:

When you Nigerian bred males stop beating, verbally insulting and r/a.ping your women, they in turn will learn to have more faith in you. I am not saying that what the lady in question did was right, but when one takes a closer look at all the evil stories permeating from Nigeria in regards to the way the men over there treat the ladies, I cannot blame them (ladies) for being distrustful of you and not wanting to talk to you. Next time, cut out the pleasantries and go straight to the point. Just say "I am looking for......Do you by any chance know where that is please?" End of.

swtdarling: well some ladies lack good manners while some are just being cautious.

cogsej06: I guess it depends on d manner of approach n appearance.......well I can NEVER b snubbed by a lady nt in dis world no matter what. I trust in d abilities n potential God hv given me.

PeeBee: Its not right for a lady to be rude to anyone but what do you expect when 9.5 out of 10 men who stop her have nothing but r.ubbish to say.

Henry40:
1. Every local girl knows that that's the 'pick up' line for every guy interested in them, and only a guy who is usually interested in such girls actually would use that as a pick up line on them. Only a guy loose with the female folk {especially the not very exposed ones} will use such an introduction. If you're as innocent as you make yourself look, such an introduction would probably not even be in your vocabulary.
2. Ladies are far more sensitive than men - they listen to every other language before the orally communicated one. If they snub you, that's probably because your body language says "Shaddy!"

Sagamite:

You are justifying their classless behaviours?

This is an example of the kind of warped men that encourage the shytheads.

2buff:

Why so pissed?

Low-class, most-likely-stank-crotched women are not worth the emotion or bother. If they do the snob your response should just be a jovial, happy "Oh I'm sorry. I wasn't aware you were socially and mentally r[i]e[/i]tarded. My apologies " in your janded voice and move on laughing . I say something similar to this whenever I encounter one of these primitive characters. It always has a satisfying result as the fool just stands there mortified and ashamed of her bush self.
