Your re a disgrace to your statue,
Is either you paid for your pride price or you followed your spouse without any dowry.
How could you be calling everybody thief at your age.
Is uncalled for even when we were telling you to be  civil with your choice of words.
Haba!!!!!

Anyway am sorry for irritating you with my post as long as you put your statement right.

oh shut up and keep ur immature apologies to yourself u two timing over-riped asshole

thank u dear,now i  knw d reason why they always call me single frustrated woman grin not minding that they might be older than i am

seriously jare sisikill I'm an igbo woman,infact a typical igbo woman,married to an igbo man,d fact that I'm from d eastern part of nigeria,does not mean i have to support their every culture and tradition,i don't waste time in telling them my mind,even though I'm one of them

take for instance yesterday,karma challenged funmi in that her igbo man and mama thread,she told her that d yorubas do it and smtimes r worst than d igbos,this babe is a yoruba girl,but still opened her mouth to call a spade a spade

i called d igbos thieves,i even added my family ontop sef grin  but for d igwe of a guy to come here and post shits about me,when he does not even know who i am,was uncalled 4

Wait. . . I don't understand.

Can someone give me a list of reasons (objective and definitive claims) as to why Bride Price is wrong?

Thank you.
Re: Outrageous Brideprice! by rosyrosy1: 11:33am On Nov 08, 2008
There is nothing wrong with pride price. The issue is that many of our young men are not married because they cannot afford to pay price price and take care of their traditional wedding especially in Imo state. There are many big ladies from early 30s to late 30s that are single. The guys too do not marry early because they cannot afford to. Most Imo and Abia guys marry form other states now because it is cheaper for them while their girls remain unmarried. In the Yoruba land, that is not the case. The bride's family takes care of the wedding.

Talk of expensive
You should visit my village and hear the cost of marriage, or even burial
By the time u buy all the cows required for only the village elders, and u then arrange all the george material and bags of rice required for the village mothers, then u can come to the family eldest son, and finally to the list - which in itself is a clear reflection of all u already spent so far

Our women are expensive, and rightly so!We don't want poor inlars


whitelexi, and you have the audacity to get mad when a Nigerian marries a foreigner. Nonsense.
