Let me try and understand whats going on here,

some girl comes on a Nigerian messageboard, makes a broad statement that 'NIGERIAN GUYS ARE RUDE' and wonders why, with the kind of attitude she's displayed why people are rude to her.

What puzzles me though is where are her family from, are they Nigerians, do they live in Nigeria, do they have men, are they rude?

Are all Nigerian Girls Stupid? No, I seriously doubt it, but some people take the biscuit.

@aloib - Well it's very sad news for me,We were beaten to it. All the same, thanks to those who tried to make it frivolous.

“Rudeness is the weak man’s imitation of strength,

In Nigeria - Rudeness is taking hold of our culture.

What is rude?

If, for instance I call the person who started this thread silly, would that be rude. What if I think she is really silly, am I not been honest?

I mean, isn't it even more idiotic, that someone will totally agree with the thread starter, but turns around and exclude her boyfriend/husband. For crying out loud, the thread goes 'NIGERIAN GUYS ARE RUDE'. Nobody's boyfriend, husband, father, brother, son, uncle, grandfather and great-grandfather is excluded, you can add unwanted step-sons to that list.

I see stupid people (apologies to 6th Sense)

There's no clear, consistent link between the use of personal intakes and rudeness. People who has never left the comfort of their homes are less apt than we to say but a few.

Some people should never be alowed to post on this page because they talk crap. U don't v 2 want to be in when can't fill in, aloib don't u get.

Free Advice

When putting ones opinion on a public message board, be sure to have thought it through and consider the implications. Half thought-through opinions always seem to have a way of biting their authors on the backside.

Waow!I don't believe nigerian guys are rude.Infact,most nigerian guys are not rude.Even some of them that are brought up in ghettos are not rude.Maybe it is the nigerian guy you met that was rude and i'm sure there have been a reason for his attitude.People are bound to get rude even if it is just once in a lifetime.So,nigerian guys are not rude.

I have never experienced this. When I was in Nigeria with my husband 4 months ago all the men I met there were very respectful, sweet and kind. Even the Nigerian men I meet here in my city are sweethearts. Perhaps it is your own attitude.

I am not the only person that has discovered this, i have realised that most Nigeian guys (the ones that live in Nigeria) are so rude , Its either they lack home training or prolly the forget about home training as soon as they leave there fathers doorstep. I went to Nigeria recently common *thank you* is too much for a Nigeria guy to say , let alone please. I must say that you lot have no respect whatsoever and thats why i can never date any of u because i can't stand your gut,  Ladies any experience of this sort please share it here lets teach this guys some respect , 

Oh please, we're not interested in dating you neither which might explain why we're rude to you. Take heart, clean up next time you visit Nigeria. Grin

@edygirl
We did not pay them anything. The men I met were nothing but gentlemen, and I wanted for nothing while I was there. Nigerians are some of the most hospitable people I have ever met. I was telling my husband that I would love to live there in the future. By the way, my husband is Nigerian and he is the sweetest, kindest man in the world, and  true gentleman. If you get negative responses maybe you should check your own attitude and the energy you give off. Try being a little sweeter and a more humble woman, it will get you a long way.
Have a Great Day!!  Wink  Smiley

They are really hospitable and sweet like my mikky and brothers and some guys but she is saying that some are rude and that is very true. And  this rudeness mostly comes from the youths.

@CHRISTEL - I think the rudeness is compounded when the person being rude is trying to pretend ,  Honesty about rudeness might still be rude, but at least it's honest. ,

Rudeness means taking advantage of the other person's sense of decorum or tradition or civility that keeps that other person from striking back or, worse,

@TEASEME2
 Iam not a mind reader. Could you tell us your experience with some Naija guys. Did you do a favour to  some Naija guys and they failed to show appreciation.  Just paint the picture for us  to understand the scenario.

By the way,  we should always try to  jettison this attitude that   " I'm from away" and I know better.Naija people don't easily give in to intimidation. Also our society had been so  much militarized.
 By  easily generalizing  a particular set of  people , it  makes little or no difference between  us  and our detractors. Do not put everybody in the same box. Every story has two sides.

I could not even stand to finish reading the thread-why do people generalise many milions on a few observations.

DO YOU KNOW 1 IN 4 AFRICANS IN THE WHOLE WORLD IS NIGERIAN! That's how many there are of us yet the couple of spots you have encountered Nigerian's means you now have eveidence that all Nigerian's are rude?!

Of course some are rude, it must be so, 'because no nationality is perfect. But I have not me t any ohter black race I have found that is morenrespectful and polite than Nigerians. Politeness and respect is even part of the culture! Demonstrate, when you give a Nigerian a present that they really appreciate and you give a white man a present they really appreciate - a white man will at most hug you and say ''thank you I really appreciate it. A Naija man will be like 'Thank you madam, eh , you don't know what you have just done for me God will bless you continuously, he will ,makesure wherever you found the money to buy the thing he will replenish this stock in abundance, may God continue to Grant you all your requests', he may, bow to you, hug you kiss you, lift you in the air.

What is common courtesy - that is another issue, have you been to china, they may see you as rude there based on local customs. Nigeian men do have common courtesy but of course a different culture has different ideas on what they call common courtesy. For example here in England, if you see your friend and are in a rush you can just nod at them or throw a smile, even if neither of you are in a rush you can do the same. Your friend will be happy and sees that you have acknowledged her and will be happy you even made eye contact and smiled only. In Nigeria if you do that it is possible to start a quarrel, as alot of people see this as NOT AKNOWLEDGING them. You need to stop, cross the road and actually enteract, if you can't cross shout fromacross the road - this is in Nigeria common courtesy. To them a British person may seem rude. Please don't think I am angry with you for thinking these people you have met are rude, because in all likelihood by your culture they probably are, they may be rude even bybtheri own culture also! I just think you should not generalise based on those ubhave met. Whe I go to the village I have never met a Nigerian, who does not say please or Biko, who does not say thanks or Daalu, who does not say welcome or Nnoo. there are some things we easily misinterpret, in Nigeria if you enter a cab they will adress you as madam and say where do you want to go in London they may not even address you. No race is ruder than the other, people raise their children in certain ways and children either follow this example as adult or don't simple! Please don't give up on your brothers I think you have just been unfortunate.
