What is hypocrisy?
According to the dictionary hypocrisy is claiming to have a higher standard than is the case.

In recent social discussions, many young ladies often term young men with rude and uncultured behavior as broke guys. They claim that only a broke guy can insult ladies because they have no money. Perhaps, they are justified in trying to defend themselves, but are they justified in terming all rude or uncultured men broke? Can't rich men just be as rude and uncultured?

The Nigerian music industry comes to mind, where most of the slangs used in insulting ladies emerged. A perfect example is the word olosho used in describing promiscuous activities of ladies. Therefore rich men are just as rude. Nonetheless, many young ladies idolize most artist in the music industry because of their money and fame.

Hence, the double standards, why not insult the artist? why do most ladies still idolize the artist because of their money and insult the broke guy for sometimes doing nothing? Why the display Of hypocrisy against the broke guy?

I swear "don't date a broke guy" is becoming an annoying cliché here. I'm a guy, even I wouldn't date myself if I'm broke. Infact my girlfriend doesn't see me if my account balance is very low (and she doesn't even make outrageous financial demands, anyway)

Because, I know this about me. I make money for me. Not her. I date because I want to explore life with another Human. The love/relationship thing is a scam sef...

I still don't get the head and tail of this post

you don't know what hypocrisy means
You don't know that some women have double standards

Now let me summarize it
Why should rude and uncultured = broke only
When rich is also rude and uncultured

LOL.
Don't take everything you read here as the standard. On the average, Nigerians measure a man's worth by his finance, and a woman's worth by her moral conduct. So, when it comes to verbal punch, a woman would be quick to call a guy broke, and he wouldn't think twice before calling her olosho.

'broke' guys are in relationships, they are getting married every Saturday to their better halfs. Forget NL sometimes and observe real life happenings...

Another wahala... Let's see how this unfolds

falconey:

Girls that postulate they can't date or marry broke guys are only securing their present and future. Two broke can't come together. They've already suffered hardship with their parents and won't want to continue with their partner so the call for broke guys' head is necessary.


No rich, comfortable and hardworking lady would call for broke guys' head because a man's wealth mean less to them.

bro look at the Nigerian economy again and tell me how it is possible for those ladies to achieve their aim

I am not against them.trying though

Yes money is not everything but no be love person go chop.
