When can u?
When can't u?

I can,though not of siblings but I still put on ma moms stuff on

In our culture the clothes must be worn till they wear off.

Personally, i can't do it....but some people no send u. The sibling or friend isn't deceased and they already draggin outfits wit them. Their passing away will only give em licence to raid their luggage.

[size=13pt]Duh!![/size] That doesn't change anything or my question "What culture is that" doesn't in anyway show that I'm assuming you're form Nigeria. If u can't answer the question, just ignore my post and stop typing sh1t like an illiterate

Friend? NO way.

Family? Yes!

In igbo land, once a mother dies, her wrappers, Georges, trinkets etc are shared either between the daughters or handed over to the youngest/eldest/favorite girl.

Yeah!I understand.I tink in almost all cultures,d wearing of a deceased parent's clothes is encouraged(even normal reasoning permits it).but dnt u think its unreasonable wen its a brother's or sister's who died prematurely?

who sets the standard for what can be defined as "reasonable" ?
I bet there must be a reason for such actions. Some might argue that keeping and using personal effects of dead siblings keeps them closer to them, evergreen memories.

I'd be very heartbroken personally to do so. I prefer total closure and that would entail burning or burying their personal effects.

Each man to his convictions.

It is a personal conviction act

Chukwu ajukwa!!!!! Can't even imagine doing it

I can wear it

I would do it...

Only a mad person would put on the clothes of a deceased person whether friend or sibling! When i haven't even finished wearing my own cloth self i will now wear dead person's cloth! Na wa for this type of question sha!

cheesekiss: Chukwu ajukwa!!!!! Can't even imagine doing it

mumu na ur type do am pass

I can wear my sibling,but I pray none of them die now,or nearest future.
For a friend,I don't wear my friend's stuff when alive,muchmore when dead. I don't pray for any of my friends to die,and all nairalanders too.

u talk sh1t its not funny

I've not lost any close friend nor sibling and I don't pray to.

I wear and use my late mum's stuff, her favorite wristwatch is mine now.

I still wear some of my late father's clothes. Its been some years since he passed.
I miss him a lot.

Ndoz: u talk sh1t its not funny

Sharrap!

I would never wear a friend's clothes dead or alive!!
For family,maybe I can or betterstill give them out if i can't
I wore my mums clothes after she was gone and i still use one or two of her wrappers.Doesn't affect closure in any way!
