Why do men have a problem with women who don't feel marriage is the ultimate achievement ? The op seems threatened by women who do not need men ! lol . Marriage is great if you meet the right person but it's better to be single than marry the wrong person . From the op s use of the word ' slut ' for women you already know the type of man he is . Not worth much !

If they keep this notion to themselves nobody will bother them but when they start creating "movement of pity parties" and misleading the next generation it becomes everybody's business.


It's not a movement. They don't just randomly burst into song, claiming marriage isn't for everyone. They air this opinion only in response to the never-ending questions from people who sometimes don't even have any legitimate stake in their lives: when will you marry? Why are you not married?

When people stop butting into the affairs of single women, bullying them to get married, they would have no cause to respond. Then we'll have some peace and quiet regarding this issue.

And what about the men who choose to be bachelors for life?


This OP needs some education. People are wired differently. Some people just prefer to be single and manage themselves by themselves. It didn't just start recently, men and women have been doing it from time.

Apostle Paul was never married and adviced others like him who also preferred to remain single because marriage is hard work and it just wasn't for him.

I know a few people who also are not crazy about marriage. For those people, if the right person never comes along,they are very content at being alone. You can't understand it but it's just the way they are.

Same way having kids is not for everyone

Jheez we all have a choice some people will live together for 30 years no cheating happy family but they don't want to get married ... who cares ! It's what works for the individual and not what society thinks should happen " African society btw" rest of the world don't give a sh!t that's why economy they boom while we suffering cause na nonsense we they prioritise
In Nigeria it's for everyone . The reason behind this trend in the west is cos of govt backing . Just wait till the govt take away welfare cheque see if they dont change the orientation .
Also in Nigeria if a guy days to a woman **oh I only wanna date and not marry they (girl)run far.unless guy is rich .

Yes but even without welfare still more ladies work in the west in fact some more than men .. in the west it's nothing for a lady to be the sole bread winner

In Nigeria will they allow such even if the man is clear,y struggling due to misplaced pride .. but yet they marry n be populating the country even more ... pls pls it's not for everyone especially in Nigeria a lot should not even be thinking of marriage
Imagine one wanted to marry 20k monthly salary like is it by force to create another poverty run family

By your last phrase are you.insinuating that marriage is based on howmuch each persons earn ?
And sustainability of the family depends on such ?
Would that not amount to you agreeing with me ?

No it isn't solely based on income but it does play a huge role when starting a family as love doesn't pay bills
Guess I might be agreeing with a little bit of your point ..

It's not for every one anywhere, even in Nigeria

My mother had three aunties and an extended uncle who did not marry.

Besides, your talk about government backing is not exactly trye; because there are MANY single and successful men and women in the west, especially in the U.S. and to an extent, Australia

So how does welfare checks come in?

Ok you see in the west not getting married does not equate to No man or living under same roof . Women in the west will live under same roof with thier partner but won't get married But the Nigerian agitation is way different from this sort of cohabitation . There is no logical reason as at yet to say that phrase . Unless they are using it in such a way to promogate failure on the part of society for them not being married .

And if otherwise let me guess they would welcome him/her and consider marriage? LOL

If that is the case, such people shouldn't say marriage isn't for them.

Don't let these failures screw up your marriage goals. There are men looking to marry. The men are just not looking to marry them. Another reason is that their mates don't marry them because they are chasing and marrying younger women. Then the much older men are already married and just want them as side-chicks. When they analyze the situation they now use their new national anthem "Marriage is not for everyone to deflect from their shortcomings. It is also used in hope that more women will shun marriage and join their losing/baby mama team. The problem is that Naija chicks are winning in general. Every Saturday there are weddings. It's just that the wedding is not theirs. They should shut the fxxx up.
