We are in 2018 not 1818. Women even older than 50 can have children. Though I'm not in support of anyone having children in that scam called marriage.

Whether in 2050 0r 2100. Women at 50 can not have children naturally. Majority of women attain menopause at 50-52 years.

SMH. We need a lot of repriotization in this part of the world

When marriage is a standard of measuring a woman's success and achievement even if the family knows she's beaten like an animal

It is so uncommon that it makes news. It is just like a man falling from the 12th floor of a building and surviving. It will definitely be a news item because it is considered as a miracle. Getting pregnant naturally and giving birth at 50 to a normal baby is a miracle.

can you advise your beloved brother to marry a woman of 40 years ?

dalaman:
False. A lady at 50 can't have children something that is an integral part of marriage.

the reason some women (and also men) commit suicide is because of narrow minded people like the above. to them, a woman above 40 is useless to marry, and marriage is solely about having children (and certainly not about wanting to spend the rest of your natural life with someone). then we wonder why an educated woman would commit suicide?! THEY are the reason why, THEY should be blamed, and funny because these are the same people who would be against abortion but then reject adopting a child!

these people, along with rubbish religion, failed governance and deluded society, are the reason Nigeria is going backward

D pressure on d female folks concerning conjugal matters are nerve wrecking. It is further compounded by bad economy (most guys are not financially ready for commitment and most girls dnt hv d time to wait in hope).



If I was a female, I wud hv probably exploded by now...cnt imagine adding marriage pressure to all these issues in my mind.


Finally, I think ladies should begin to stay alone like guys do. Dt cud reduce parental pressure.
Yeah, its not easy for ladies....couple with the menopause issue....its not just about parental pressure alone...even if their parents don't pressure them, society pressures them....seeing their friends and mates back then in school sharing lovely pictures with their husbands and kids is enough to pressure them.

It is not easy to be a woman be it in America, Europe, Asia or Africa...the pressure is almost the same, the only difference is that the economy of other nations are okay so single ladies can still fend for themselves and live a happy life materially, but still traumatized emotionally for being single, reason most white ladies fall for Yahoo Yahoo boys and their internet romance scam.

Seriously, we need to help the ladies become happy in any way we can cos its not easy for them at all, God will strengthen you ladies cry

She will need to get pregnant through artificial insemination(IVF). Even at that the success rate is less than 10%.

The chances of getting pregnant naturally and giving birth to a healthy baby at 50 is less than 5%.

bro, stop writing nonsense....it is ONLY in deluded countries like Nigeria that a single woman would commit suicide because she isnt married at 40. in most part of the west, people dont view marriage like Nigerian does. most women who fall for yahoo yahoo do so because they are LONELY, not because they cant get married, duh! there are NO pressure to get married in the west, stop writing rubbish.

Shut up and be quiet! The reason why most people remain married today is because of their children. If not because of children majority of couples would have gone their separate ways.

Marriage has become a social norm. Society expects you to get married, and to do so before the age of 30(sometimes even younger depending on what culture you're from).

But let's try to be logical here. What if she actually turned down numerous men during her bloomy days? We know how much these women look down on men especially when they're not up to their "class" and "standards."

But they forget that at the end of the day, they're the ones that need the marriage more. It's what these crazy feminists do. I know they will come for my head, but the truth has to be told.
How come women are the ones who need marriage the most? Explain cos I don't get your thinking

A) do you know you can have children without being married to someone?!
B) do you know that many Nigerian women are miserable in marriage, and the only thing that keeps them there is the child?
C) do you know that many Nigerian women are married solely for baby making purposes, and they remain miserable in that union?
D) do you know that many deluded Nigerian women marry the 1st donkey that comes their way, as a desperate measure to be married and/or have babies?!

why do you think that is, if not because of a deluded Nigerian society/people who look down on unmarried or divorced women?!?! if a woman/man are miserable together then they have NO reason to stay together for any reason whatsoever. if a woman and man dont LOVE one another then let them go their separate way and raise that kid in a safe positive environment.

bro, again, STOP WRITING RUBBISH!!!! here in the west, people dont give a damn about marriage. if it happens, its ok, but if it doesnt then LIFE GOES ON! it is only in deluded miserable countries (where people cant even get 3 square meals a day) that women are raised to believe tha their only salvation is marriage, and whether happy or not, without marriage they are viewed as worthless.

again, women all over the REAL world, dont give a damn about marriage, if it happens GREAT, if it doesnt LIFE GOES ON...
stop believing the messages you receive from either yahoo yahoo or fat fugly disgusting women who know that desperate Africans would do anything for a green card (even marry a woman that nobody wants in the west)

No human being ever want to remain lonely forever no matter who they are okay We are social animals....loneliness affect our emotion and general mental being it can destroy some people, so stop talking thrash and listen to a professional angry angry

there is a HUGE difference between being lonely and being desperate to marry AT ALL COST...many women in the west are lonely, YES, but they certainly aint desperate to get MARRIED, they are only desperate to find a man.....HUGE DIFFERENCE! again, only in Nigeria that marriage is viewed as a DO or DIE issue! because guess what?! here you dont have to get married to get all the perks of married people,,, its called common law union

Thanks for confirming the possibility. There are over 7 billion people on the planet. Work out the percentage of women that are above 50. A 1% success rate is substantial and it paves the way to the fact that mankind can do more in the near future.

What will marriage stop you to enjoy?

And life is not maths. Except you have someone you both havery agreed to wait till the next five 5yrs to hit the 28 mark, there is no guarantee that when you are 28, they kind of men you want will still be available.

And if marriage is not useful to you at 23, why the usefulness at 28?
