you dey mind am . In fact if I wore such outfit and some angry looking women hissed at me just for them to let me know they are angry with my dressing, I will happily hiss back. After all yorubas say nkan to wunmi o wun e.meaning one man's food is another man's poison. You no like my dressing and you're angry and frowning your face like that frown will remove the dress from my body.my dear you are on a very long tin


that's how me my friends and my daughter went for one owanmbe and I decided to wear show me what your mama gave you outfit (monostrap micro mini gown) and then an older lady came from behind and tapped me saying my dear I want to talk to you hope you won't feel offended. I obliged and then she said this your dress is not decent . If you are wearing this what are you teaching this little girl pointing at wura. I didn't even allow her to finish before I and my friends pounced on her.
Hurrah for you.

I can pick flaws with almost every line of your argument here, 5minsmadness.



Okay then. So you do agree that it's been our culture to roam go about our business, either in the nu.de or near-nu.de? So why then do you blame it on Western Influence, seeing as this is how things were, way before the white man stepped foot on our soil?
But its no longer the norm now is it? You don't see ladies wearing leaves for skirts and exposing their naked puppies for men to check if they are of age now do you? Why do you like to argue so much sef? We all know what decency entails. And we all know the whites are at the forefront of promoting indecency and p0rnography and the objectification of the female body as seen in thier movies, music videos, adverts(car adverts, sports adverts, even perfume adverts! Perfume oh!) So why all this back and forth? Abegi!





Our culture is our culture and there's no shame in that. Like someone pointed out earlier, cultures and trends do evolve over time. Even the foreign influences you mention have had cultural changes and are still changing. They too have nud.is.ts camps, beaches, and even towns in both Europe and the USA and they are proud to flaunt what they've got without embarassment. So who determines the shamefulness you mention?
Oh no they aren't. That's why the nudist caps are not open to every tom dick and Harry. That's why they have special nudist camps and special nudist beaches away from the normal camps and beaches because they know not everyone accepts their way of life.




What other alternatives were there to communal bathing? Even the Roman did it too.

That aside, my guess is that communal bathing was down to practicality and convenience. Additionally, they must have felt there was safety in numbers as per it was better for them to go as a crowd at certain times of the day rather than individually, as and when they pleased. The men being there would have provided that extra protection to their women folk and children from opportunistic raiders / kidnappers.
Even in my grandpapi's clay house they had private bathrooms. It wasn't compulsory to go for communal bathing It was done more out of convenience than anything else.
What has communal bathing got to do with the topic?


You still don't get it. There is nothing Western about an African lady going about her business in the hot tropical sun have undressed. It was happening long before the foreigners arrived. And there was nothing indecent about it. What's indecent are your lustful thoughts towards women dressed in what you perceive to be "inappropriate" attire.
Oh but of course! Please blame me for thinking 'lustful thoughts' after an indecently dressed lady waltzed perpetually before our eyes, exposing her wrinkled body for us to see. I mean, its got to be our sex starved minds that couldn't just let her be to express her freedom! Rubbish!



And when you and your future sons decide to take a ppiss up your nearby tree in full public glare, isn't exhibiting your privates? Isn't that indecent too? Or is it just being liberated?
You have mentioned this thing before. Do you find men peeing in public particularly arousing ? Anyway I don't do such. Its not gentlemanly.

OK. Really we have the wherewithal to make our own choices but you have to admit a lot of us follow westerners blindly. I'm only assuming but I'm very sure she just wore it to show off her gym suit. For goodness sake it didn't even look comfortable and it was exceedingly tight but she wore it anyway and exposed her cellulite riddled azz for all to behold in the name of 'I don't care what anybody thinks, I did this in the US(or wherever) and so I can do it here.

what is mapouka dance?
The famous cote d'ivore sex dance and the origin of the now popular 'twerking'.


Wikipedia.
Mapouka (also macouka) is a traditional dance from the Dabou area of southeast Côte d'Ivoire that originated with the Aizi, Alladian and Avikam people.[1] It is also known as "la danse du fessier" or "the dance of the behind".

The dance is mostly performed by women,[2] shaking their rear end side to side, facing away from their audience, often while bent over.

In the 1980s, artists of the Ivory Coast tried without much success to popularize it. One of the most well known groups is Tueuses de Mapouka. In 1998, the government of Côte d'Ivoire prohibited its performance in public.[3] Following the prohibition, the dance enjoyed very fast-growing global following, especially in the sub-Saharan countries and western nations with large Francophone communities

colonisation & christianity had africans convinced that half-nüdity is immoral. as years rolled by, even the western folks are abandoning christianity & are sticking to their fundamental human rights.

to be fair to our women, the climate in africa does not favour full-clothing. visit anywhere remotely close to the tropical climate we have in africa & every chic is bikini-clad. how then are our ladies immoral? what is even immoral? if you see a woman in bikini by the pool-side or lekki beach, would you say she's immoral?

why is it any different if you see her dressed like that on the street? if you can control yourself on the beach, where's that same self-control on the street? really, everyone needs to change their orientation.
If , according to you, everyone needs to change their orientation then you are indirectly saying everyone sees it as abnormal.

There is appropriate dressing for every occasion. I wear swimming trunks when I go to the pool and nobody bats an eye. I won't because of that wear swimming trunks to work on a Monday or to travel to Lagos in a bus for that matter. What that lady was wearing was wrong, period, no matter how hot the weather was or is and the only reason she wore it without fear is because she was being 'modern' as far as I'm concerned. It was a disgusting thing for a 30something year old lady who should have had the wisdom to know better to wear.

Even when the weather is hot there are light cotton materials that are very airy and decent to wear. Also exposing your skin to direct sunlight can lead to sunburn and skin cancers especially if you are white. So saying the weather is hot or whatever is a moot point.



maybe you are living in the wrong century.

I am well aware of our African culture and tradition, thank you very much. I once posted an expose on the famous mapouka dance and how much more sexually liberated our African women were than their white counterparts before colonialization decimated our way of life.

The truth of the matter is, that is not our mentality anymore. The sake white folk are the ones that made us realise that walking around in our palm leaves and near unclothedness was shameful. No one will do that now and be seen as a normal han being. Our parents would tell us that young men and women of marriagable age would bath together in the same stream and no one saw anything wrong in it. There were no massive rapes or molestations then either. Our morality was intact. However when the westerners came they convinced us that such things were shameful and with time we believed them. Things changed. Morality was knittes together with decency and religion. Now all of a sudden our girls are flaunting their cameltoes and all we can say is we did it before?? It was in our culture? I should accept everything western cos i'm using an ipad? What kind of warped thinking is that? Indecency is indecency!

Well. I'm just stating my opinion sha. Maybe I'm too old fashioned in my thinking but God help me I intend to raise my daughter to know the difference between being liberated and exhibiting her privates in the name of modernization.

On lagos-ore traffic. Network is horrible.

Notice how its majority of you ladies supporting the blatant nakednes5 of this woman, probably cos y'all think am being prudish. I'm not. I'm just trying yo exercise a little common sense here.


Who in their right minds will wear a gym suit to travel? A GYM SUIThuh What kind of yeye liberty is that? And yes even in my village young girls with full breasts still walk about in some remote areas but that doesnt mean cococandy or efemena will now decide to go topless in the city! Haba. Let's be honest for once. I would have taken her picture but that could have been a bad idea as in invasion of her privacy. And anyway we are not talking of a sweet sixteen here, I would place her at 30-40yrs. It was more of fermented eye cheese and not eye candy that we were being 'forced' to watch.

I perceive that as a strong sense of self, not stubbornness. You know what you want, what you will or will not tolerate in a relationship, refuse to be treated like a doormat by anyone and not afraid to challenge pre-conceived male notions of what a 'good woman/wife' is or isn't.

Bottom line, you demand respect and expect to respected in return.

And if some men can't handle it - too bad!

So I'm sitting at the lounge of a well known park and heading to Lagos. Its 6.30am in the morning and I'm thinking I should have been here earlier. I'm patiently waiting to get my ticket when this 'lady' pushes thru to the front. I glance at what she is wearing and I mentally gawk in amazement.

Its a gym workout suit. You know, the kind new-yorkers wear, extremely fitted and very tough but light fabric that leaves absolutely nothing to the imagination. Absolutely nothing. Her buttcrack is very visible and her gluteus is covered in celulite as evidenced by the subtle bumps on her posterior. The front...OK I tried really hard not to look but curiosity got the better of me and yep; the cameltoe was on easy display for all to see. The top was better off, or maybe because I'm used to seeing skimpy tops I don't really know.


Funny enough, what comes to my mind isn't that the woman is loose or how can she stomach all the stares she is receiving, or how she can't possibly know this is a gym suit and not meant for travelling. What comes to my mind is that the Westerners are spoiling us rotten. They are corrupting our minds and debasing our way of life so much that we don't even know when we are making fools of ourselves. How can a woman walk out of her house this Unclad this early in the morning with the mind that she is going to Lagos? What is wrong with her thinking faculty?

If it was in the past an elder would have gone to correct her or shame would not have allowed her expose her unclothedness like this; but now if a person approaches her the person will be told to mind his own business, its a free world, wetin your eye find go there, its her body let her do with it as she likes, it is the inward appearance that matters, the person should stop living in the 19th century, his mind is dirty, etc, the list of excuses to correct wrong when we see it is endless.

We as a people are gradually losing our identity and morality. Soon we will have serialrapists aand killers, soon we will have increased incidences of teenage suicide and morbid obesity. Porn0graphy is already fully embedded in the activities of our youths. All these things that were previously alien to our culture. As if the horrors we have are not enough.

And yet we still support the white man's values and way of life. We shout down those who try to speak up, citing their successful economy as a pass to emulate them no matter what they are doing. We are destroying ourselves with our own hands and are happy to do so.

This lady has passed by for the fifth time and almost all the passengers are looking at her. One or two guys are grinning but most of the other guys have frowns on their faces and a few women have gathered the courage to hiss but she obviously doesn't care. After all, she has been taught to ignore haters.

Haters gon' hate.

Sigh.

Not all men cheat.
Men tend to be more promiscuous in marriage than women, probably because of their huge sexuaI appetites when compared to their female counterparts. And since the institute of marriage is becoming less and less sacrosanct, more and more single ladies don't mind giving themselves out to married men who most times are already sex-starved and will need the grace of God not to fall to temptation.


Ladies, if you don't want your man to cheat, make love to him at least three times a week. Its that simple.

A man who LUSTS after her and a man who LOVES HER...a husband who doesn't lust after the woman he loves will eventually lust after someone else.©5minsmadness,2014.

What actually makes a good marriage? What is the key factor? Is it tolerance from both sides, is it the ever slowly elusive submissiveness of the wife? Is it the undying faithfulness of the husband?

What made all those marriages of past generations last as long as they did? And don't dare say they were suffering in silence, that is pure bullshit. You were not there so you cannot conjecture who was feeling what. Why did the marriages of the past last longer than they do now??

MUST READ:

On a cool afternoon I was doing research on "Surface Coating Engineering and Rust". Most journals I found on the net were not free. I flashed back when I was researching on my final year project topic and found that most of the resourceful journals on my topic where not for free on net.
I wonderd as I ask myself this question. "If all these important books/journals in internet that can add value to our lives and academics are not free, then why are pornography videos, pictures and explicit materials free and very easy to download on Net? " .

That's a big question. My answers are these (think and share your own answers):

1: Things that will enrich our destinies or future are not cheap; but things that will destroy our destinies,vision,goal and future are easily available and very cheap/free. Although there are many of these destiny killers but pornography is the mother of them all, I will explain. Am a Chemist pls pardon me to explain with Chemical terms.

Pornography is like a Polymerisation(free radical) reaction:

Initiator: your device e.g phone or computer.

Propagator: with it you continue browsing porn and explicit materials.

Then final stage, the termination stage: your future, your talent, your goal, your destiny all terminated.

FINAL RESULT: Instead of successful man, you have a miserable masturbator. Instead of an achiever, you have an empty all hope lost person. Instead of successful self employed graduates, you have have unemployed youths, thieves, kidnappers, prostitutes, boko harams because there brain has been severaly damage by porns no more sense of reasoning.

Porn also leads to broken marriages, country in chaos. All these traced to pornography. If you love your self, future, destiny, born and unborn children SAY NO TO PORNOGRAPHY CONTENTS TODAY. The decision you make today will affect your future tomorow even your generations
