No no no, you are getting me all wrong.
I am saying our ladies now wear indecent clothing without shame. And the 'without shame' part comes from westernization.

i.e previously someone would have been able to correct her or at least she would have cautioned herself, but nowadays she would wear it knowing fully well how openly indecent it is but use phrases like 'haters gon' hate', 'its my body, I can do with it as I please', its none of your business' , 'its modern/western dressing-get with the program' etc to wave away the fact that she isn't properly dressed.

Maybe some people do not want to be "properly dressed".
What gives you, me or anyone else the right to tell another adult how he/she should dress?

I rest my case.

I just want you to know that many if not most people in the West would be quite shocked if someone dressed like the person in the second picture and went to public places like this. They would agree with you that it is rather distasteful.

women can dress however they want. men can also dress however they want.
She is a grown woman and doesn't need you to be telling her what to wear so yes I agree with her. it's her body and non of your business.

exactly!
some men don't dress properly as well. If they are grown adults, that's their business not mine. I can make judgments but i'm not entitled to any right over their dressing.

Offline @ OP, so you saw a butt line and had a head spin? Confusion sets in, you took time to analyze everything about her, even the stretch mark didn't stop you.

You then jumped in nairaland to continue the analysis. What will then happen it you saw one butt cheek. The "thing" go just stand inside, waiting to unleash the horrors it has within.

S ex is an art. Its nature, you cant suppress it for long, and when you try, this is what you experience.
Go get a girlfriend or marry, what ever is the case, explore your s ex life. So that when you see such thing, your shock absorber will be very efficient wink

Bleed off with your hands, ragolis bottle grin, hit it on the wall every morning, what ever..You should start controlling your body and stop harassing others controlling their own body.

some butt lines are very difficult to hide, no matter what you do, most sunny weather , its advisable to let some air in to avaoid skin cancer tongue. And you know these days one wants to live long, so no wandering eyes can stop it.

Buckle up, freedom has come to stay. You adjust and go back to your village

You know, I get really irritated when people with a hidden agenda best known to them, try to turn a debate into a religious one. This cheap stunt of yours isn't going to work, but let me humor you nonetheless, assuming the real issue here is you not fully comprehending my posts so far:
Now, Mr FkForYou, this is an excerpt from 5minsmadness' initial poste:
And Ms Haftob's post trying to butteress his point about how women not "properly" covered up could be seen as s.ex.ua.l objects:
And my response to her:
You do understand that at this point, I'm letting her know that it matters not how much a woman covers herself, even if she's completely wrapped up like an Egyptian mummy, any man who wants to get between her legs will still find a way to do so, irrespective of what she wears!
And then a couple of posts on, I post two pictures - a painting of a young Nigerian girl in mid 19th century first, dressed in Nigerian traditional attire and a second picture of the same girl swathed in Victorian clothes from the same era.
Did I not clearly state what my preference was? Did you see any Christians jumping on my post claiming that my post "degraded" Christianity and or christian women? Seeing as the Victorians were staunch Christians?
Now does this help make things clearer to you or not?

Does being wrapped from head to toe in an oversized tent provide 100% protection to women, from being rr.aped, so.do.mi.zed, or even getting killed?

Yes,it kind of does. Being close to naked makes a girl an obvious target for sexual assault.

My brother, pls let me correct the impression about westerners.like u said it is been worn by ppl in the gym house.now the qstn is the socalled westerners, did they wore theres on outing or whn travlling or to the gym? Yes to the gym of couse.but it just dat our mentality of copying the wrong thing.
Some of those cloths our sisters wear today are only worn on stages, awards night (dat frm house to the arena or stage then back home just to create awareness by the designers) but our ladies wear dem on streets like normal dailycloths. Dat madnes.

@5minmadness the fact is that the West didn't corrupt us in that regard.
It is actually the other way round.
African culture is that of unclothedness or half clad kind of dressing if I may call it that.

We are the ones who exported unclothedness to the West while they brought their prim and proper kind of dressing to us.
Now the west is more African than Africans in terms of unclothedness while we are forming more Western than the West by trying to enforce prim and proper dressing.

Enough of blaming them for everything that goes wrong with our society.

Eesh.

I was about to make this same point.If we are honest with our history from badagry to bakassi, the maidens of the time (as recent as seventy/eighty years ago) the newly married women were less covered up than the average fun seeking young lady in to day's time.
This whole morality of women dressing gas gone to absurd proportions.
I guess what they say is true "if you tell a lie again and again it becomes the truth so much that you the originator of the lie genuinely believes it" .

Call them hypocrites, call them fanatics, but you can't take their sense of modest dressing from them.

Not African culture.
African culture includes nudity.

Africa should pls stop corrupting other parts of the world with nudity.


north and most west Africa used full cloths almost a 1000 years ago that even before they have direct contract with arabs. so just because h south Africa, half of east Africa, central Africa and 20 percent of west Africa are unclothe 200 years ago that does make it a general africa culture

Lol, we can rewrite history, ehn? Most Nigerians need to take a class or two in their precolonial history before ranting about the West. I don't know why the Nigerian educational system does not make History compulsory for every Nigerian. What most of you deem as 'in the past' started from 1960- post colonial Nigeria. grin In a bid to worship the 'queen' more than the British, we became more conservative than the frigid Brits. grin Se...x that was not inhibited for the African woman was now inhibited even in marriage because as an upright Christian or Muslim woman, 'thou shalt not know how to p..oke'. cheesy, only the man should rotflmao. Some African cultures teach their girls how to have se.xxxx. Today our mothers can't even broach the subject of se.xxxx to us. grin
When it comes to nudity, I don't shoot my mouth, because that is the natural state of some African societies, and it will be highly, highly hypocritical to blame the West. You are the one influencing the West. Western women have tagged it 'free the nipple', google Rumer Willis and her campaign for 'freeing the nipple' in a bid to copy us, of course cool. grin Do you know that some Igbo women went around beating up women that adopted the Western style of covering their bre..asts? Do you know a woman could divorce her husband in Igbo culture? But today Nigerians would shout it's the West corrupting us. As I said, go learn your real history before blaming the West.

Exactly there was a time that wearing a bra was a taboo among the southern easterners then only strong headed "lost" free spirit women did it.T he claim was that they were damaging the breasts and would not be able to breastfeed their infants later.
Its really funny how times change.

You guys need to understand that this has nothing to do with the western world. It just that the world is trying so hard to appear civilised. In literal sense, there is nothing like a western culture. The westerners had their own culture years back that those not reflect what they are today..it died out and others are gradually following.

I am not in support of indecency from both gender but somethings we just need to cut the westerners some slack and call a spared a spared

Men especially African men lack the level of self control required to keep our animalistic sexua.l urges at bay. Pastors rr.ape members of both gender. Islam could never rid homosexuality from the Arab culture so it stinks high up north in spite of the hypocrisy of sharia. Why should a girls' skimpy dressing lock out your sense of reason and morality.
Western culture indeed I hardly hear of rappes during biker week where even guys have nuttin on but their boxers.
The Mind of the Blackman is a dark void where only negativity, blames, hypocrisy and immorality thrives. Forget the successful ones you see. They form an infinitesimally small percentage compared to the apes in western clothing

Some parts of Africa have nuude breats exhibitions as part of their culture.
Nigerian culture for most parts include half dressing,skimpy wraps et al as the core of our dressing.
The West brought cloths to us because they saw us as naked African gorrillas.

Now you're saying they are the ones who introduced us to nudity?
Be serious pls.

If you're talking about. Our identity as Africans,half nude is one part of it.what you're actually doing is asking us to throw away our culture as Africans and embrace prim and proper dressing which used to be Western culture.


It seems you women love being naked yet wants to be respected?

men also live in the same Hot Africa, yet fully clothed.

you claim Africans weren't wearing clothes pre-colonial era, ok, how come while men now wear clothes (naked African men before), the women chooses not to?
