Non-Igbo Guys: Do You Avoid Marrying Igbo Girls? by Nobody: 2:57pm On Nov 22, 2014 |
Personally, it seems the really cool chicks I know and have dated are Igbo. I am not. Come to think, all my close female friends are Igbo. However more times than I care to count, I have heard many non-igbo Nigerian guys say they will not be marrying (dating and marriage are 2 different matters altogether) an Igbo girl, particularly because of the whole Bride-price/heavy list woes that are typical attributed to the igbo tribe. Too bad NL no longer has a poll. I want the non-igbo guys to give their own opinion and case as to whether this is true. |

yungryce: Don't you mean groom price? Yeah it's customary in Nigeria that it comes from the man, which is okay. Problem is in certain tribes and families, they tend to take things way too far greed-wise. |

3cycle: Hunger has little to do with it. Myself and the friends I speak of are blessed...Thank God for that. It's more of a principle thing. I grew up mostly outside of Nigeria so maybe this adds to my inability to understand why the excessive barriers placed between 2 people trying to build a life together the right way early under God instead of philandering with themselves and wasting their years in sexual sin. Wealth is built, and it is best built when 2 work together as a team. No one-man or one-woman company ever succeeds as it should. It needs a team. Wealth doesn't "just happen" (unless you're born rich, but how many of those are there?)". Also as this same wealth comes, the whole family enjoys one way or another. There will be gifts in the future, love, joy, buying parents their own house, etc...these things are trivial things that WILL happen anyway. So why the demand for such things BEFORE the two can start working together the way God intended? Personally I think it's a demonic agenda to keep people single and burning in their lust instead of partnering up earlier. Also, "hungry" is not just a label for the groom and his family. Some bride families act hungry and give themselves a bad look with the way they treat potential in-laws during pre-nuptial talks. It is important to uphold a sense of dignity when discussing these matters. Imagine in a list someone posted here (List #2 out of 4 different lists for the same girl), it entailed a demand for 3 white female underwear by the bride's mother. Now that's just shameless. Some things should be private! The groom might even begin to question just what exactly he is getting himself into, especially when the woman who supposedly loves him is busy supporting the extortion. In general it boils down to the family, but when only 5% of families from a certain tribe actually behave themselves when it comes to these things, meaning 95% of them act shamelessly... a stereotype is formed. You can't really be mad at others for having that stereotype, because it didn't form itself. 7 Likes |

EroticAngelina: That is very recursive logic. So let's say the chap is still getting there and doesn't have anywhere near what they are unyieldingly demanding for? But has enough to take care of the wife day to day as they BUILD together. What then? You make it seem like "He will break up with her" when it is in-fact her family that actually refuse to let her be with him in a Godly manner. It is no wonder the average Nigerian outside the border has the unfortunate reputation for scamming and general illegal practices. My people have built around themselves a self-destructive culture of money-worshipping that is bound to turn even the most devout individual to greed. Not even churches are a safe haven from this societal greed! God help us all 2 Likes |

2buff no need for the epistle, if your friends are living in affluence as claimed, paying a bride price won't be an issue. If you can't afford it, there're other tribes you and your frnds can marry from. |

The only reservation I have about igbo girls especially when it has to do with dating and even more seriously, marriage is that "igbo girls are rude" As much as I won't like to lend myself to any such stereotype, I can't but just help believing that igbo girls are generically rude... Ofcourse I have some female igbo friends who are cool headed and humble but the majority of them I've had the experience of meeting are rude. |
