Not much people follow up the gizzard issue and chicken ass except for titled men who like eating it.
My mum eats it but when ever i'm around and she cooks a fowl, she serves it to me as a sign of my traditional status as Eze obi

Igbo traditions vary from town to town and kola nut is served to the man of the house by his wife or daughter and the man then presents the kolanut to his visitors before he breaks and serves it. Thats how its done in my town in Anambra, i dont know much about other communities.
A titled man of 30years can break kolanut in the midst of non titled men who are much older than himself.

In my own area, the women ate the juicy parts while the men in the name of tradition ate the ''shitty'' parts like the head. . .yuck!!! There wasn't much strict adherence to that chicken parts rule anyway but when we did, someone better leave the chicken heads on my plate angry angry grin grin grin. I remember ''tricking'' my sister into exchanging her two chicken heads and two wings for my two fat chicken thighs. . . I wonder who was the mugu   lipsrsealed lipsrsealedgrin ; Now I cringe when I see chicken head. . .gives me the creeps.

The truth is that there are stuff women can't do and theres stuff men can't do in all cultures, whether is sexist or making-love-ist is all up to you people.
