@topic 1) Blame their parents for not teaching them the wonder of make-up  2) For the beautiful ones, blame the guys that could not upgrade their game and impress her at 25.  3) Blame the guys that jilted them after three years of courtship.  4) Blame their alchoholic father for beating up their mum and making them hate men.  5) Blame the church for potraying relationships as a path to hell 6) Blame the mum for not pushing them hard enough on the matter. 7) Blame married couples for making marriage look like stress when it's the sweetest thing ever 8.) Blame the marriage restrictions racism and tribalism that has been caused by their upbringing9) Blame the economy for paying them so much and making them forget about settling down 10)Blame other unmarried over30's for deceiving them that they don't need men  11) Blame the man's mum for choosing a wife for him.
That's all I can think of for now, eleven to make a football team |

You said a few yr marriage turned you to a 100 year old mummy and I guessed that those in happy marriages shouldn't be aging fast abi. I derived it from your last statement. Anyway sha, sorry. |

Marriage is hard work. Many do not know that. They only fantasize about the ring. Its harder work than people realize. When i said i feel a hundred years old sometimes i was trying to emphasize on how much energy it takes from one. That does not in anyway translate into a bad marriage. Dont get it twisted. |

1. The perpetual financial crisis bedevilling the menfolk especially with a mindset of needin to "arrive" before embarkin on the marital trip.
2. free sex everywhere . If they can get it free and without much hassles, why invite a lifetime "yoke" in the name of marriage? I believe if there were no available sexual outlet for the men, and marriage was a necessary prerequisite for gettin it on, there'd be a lot more marriages than we can handle. . . . . . meaning far less over-30 singles.
just ma thoughts.
the society wedding wont pay for itself you know plus most of you want a 'gainfully' employed godly man don't you? what does gainfully employed mean anyway?Our Nigerian society looks at women over 30 and are not yet married as getting expired. Although it's a wrong notion about expiry dates and most women in that age range has been fighting that stereotype supposedly from men but do we really need to blame men for that stereotype?
If our mothers, grandmothers and aunts are the ones that always tell our brothers who wants to marry an over 30 woman to look elsewhere for something younger and more 'fruitful', why blame the men for that stereotype?. Most of us women here will even do the same to our siblings who come home with women in that age range but you can hardly hear that our fathers,grandfathers,uncles etc discouraged their sons,nephews and grandsons from marrying a woman of their choice.
After reading the premise to this argument, do you still believe that men should be blamed for stereotyping women over 30 or should we cormfortably blame the stereotype on us and leave men the hell alone? based on this women are to blame! I think it's about time women stop giving a damn about what they say! let our society do what it does best-talk and poke nose! |

what does gainfully employed mean anyway? It means 'GET A DAMN JOB'. We Naija women are not raised to to care of men financially. |

what is the difference between gainfully employed and employed then?I think marry at 30 should be the norm for Nigerian girls now, that way they themselves should have arrived!! Nigeria men should boycott unemployed women!!!

Women over 30 who still single/never been married are the one blame themselves on the ground of vivid imagination about "romantic" and "marriage".
