qtguru: Nothing like "Igbo have it in their culture." It exist in every tribe but may be more common among Igbos. Anybody that gives is cheerful naturally and doesn't have anything to do with tribe. I think the reason you think it is common among Igbos is because Igbos have more people with good and understanding hearts maybe due to the fact that they have higher people who have made it from the bottom to the top. 5 Likes |

Men do help men. It is in the DNA of men to help women... the reason a man car breaks down on the road....9 out of 10 men will drive by. If it's a woman.... no more than 2 men will drive by ... even if they know nothing about cars but driving. Man is wired to help women... men are wired to be providers. A man needs to question his manhood when he begins to expect another man to help him. 1 Like |

If you guys want to be disciplined and start helping each other. Start with semen retention and gymning. This will help with focus and discipline. Then book's on self development, finance and ethics. Then build communities of men who are genuinely interested in developing a healthy & prosperous society where tech is the religion and ethics the faith. Create credit and finance communities for men with the sole purpose of creating wealth & job's, by providing solutions to complex problems. NB. All these sex obsessed,drug addicts, lazy fast money type's don't deserve help . They deserve to rot in hell 8 Likes |

God bless you man... I don't know where this op got his notion from and it's just laughable. His narrative has just sent the wrong signal through. Girls usually complain about pulling themselves down, and how they envy the rapport among men. I hate it when this lie of "men not helping themselves" is spewed because it's a lie from the pit of hell. cooltola: 3 Likes |

Whether men or women, I don't think I can help anybody again. I made plenty money in my first 4 years of leaving school; and I made sure I helped many: friends, relatives, siblings, people I know and those I don't know. Now, I'm in a mess for the past 7months to the extent I can't feed myself but there's no one to help me, not even relatives nor friends. Infact, no one to borrow me money to eat. Do you think I can help when I stand on my feet again? So we humans teach ourselves how to behave to ourselves. 2 Likes |

Originalsly: Or just help anyone regardless of gender. I like to help guys more before women because a solid guy knows he owes a favour, that is with sensible friends o so it also extends to sensible lady friends. Except we understand as men that women naturally don't return favours like men unless they hold you in admiration. 3 Likes |

It depends on the group or network of men you belong to. It depends on whether the man genuinely needs help or wants to become a leech. This stereotyping of men do not happen at T[b] the Catalyst Men Network Internationa[/b]l which I founded 9 years ago. We are a brotherhood without being a cultish solidly rooted in the Christian value of you are your brother's keeper. Our Value is ERIC - Empathy, Resourcefulness, Integrity and Confidentiality ...whatever you shared in our MANOSPHERE stays THERE MAN TO MAN. We need to encourage men, young men not to be indolent, dependent and indisciplined. My personal experience leading the foremost non-affiliated Men Network is this.....Teach a man how to fish...doleout and bailouts and palliative do not solve men's problem. If you can't get help as a man, become a help to another man. God rewards what you sow. Dayo Adeyemi 0 8 0 2 8 8 8 2 8 2 8 (Whatsapp) |

A married and rich man will build hotel and factory and will say, Job vacancy, apply in person but preferably FEMALE.. if na security, driver or concrete cement Jobs now, they will be looking for men.. this life no balance.. Men suffer Allot Fellow men and womanizers will keep favoring FEMALES more than male.. A woman doesn't need a Job to marry, but a woman cannot marry an UNEMPLOYED man.. This life no balance.. Men, we are really trying.. If a girl is broke now, if she send 20 sms to males for 2k, 12 out of the 20 people will help her.. that's 2 x 12 = 24k, she will report same process again.. But me, I have been broke since I moved to Lagos after my NYSC.. I have sent 20 of my friends sms even if na 1k sef.. None has replied me till now.. you see.. DIS LIFE NO BALANCE.. Let's help ourselves men.. no be all about to.to all the time.. No be say many of us no Sabi do crime, scam or FRAUD, na God we just dey fear.. Good evening NL.. 2 Likes |

Can you call it help when the real intention behind the "help" is to knack the woman? Are old, unattractive and very fat women being helped too? Because I think for something to qualify as help, there must not be an expectation behind it. So no, i think men help other men genuinely, but "help" women in a hope to smash the honey pot. In this context, yes, a lot of men are idiot. And I personally detest such men. Personally I'm very greedy to women. If you think say tortoise greedy, you haven't met me, I can dash a girl one million if she genuinely needs it, but to give you because I want to knack you? Of course no. That's prostitution and I don't do prostitute.. I give cheerfully, but my benevolence is not pussi motivated. If I want want smash a girl, I derive satisfaction knowing that she was attracted to me not because of money, but something more. But still, millions of men troop to cities all around Nigeria every year, courtesy of other men. Men do help men, but just as growth is not loud, men helping other men is silenced. I don't want to mention name, but I've help lots of men with cash on nairaland here, people I don't even know, and some with skills. If you're one of the moniker I've helped and you are comfortable to mention it, please quote it. Infact the help was so much, I felt like it was same moniker creating different account to milk me. I don turn maga for him. Then I stopped. Now if you beg me, I'll just ignore. I hate being exploited. To make it even easier for career beggars, I wrote on my profile that begging will be ignored. Lots of times, helpers are seen as fools and exploited until you turn cold and change am for even the good ones. Well, I gotta put myself first. I had an nl account that I deleted, I assisted hundreds of people move abroad as students, I met many in Europe, mostly guys, and some few ladies, and I'm glad for that. I'm saying all these because it seems like people do not know men that are helping, but we just don't talk or blow our trumpet. So no, men do help men, we just no de loud am 13 Likes 1 Share |

You are making a mistake. What you call “help” towards women is not help. It is payment. It could be payment for services rendered or an advance for services to be rendered. Anything a man does for a woman solely because of her gender is essentially a feminine/beauty privilege TAX. The good thing is some of us men resist such billing. Helping men is like planting a seed. It will germinate and benefit others. Helping women is simply charity most of the time. There is no reward unless it’s advance payment. 1 Like |

To some extent, I dont fully agree to this position. Men help ladies mainly around material things, strictly for what they stand to benefit, mostly, sex. However most business partnerships are with fellow men, most trusted deals are with fellow men, most employment recommendation for "very good jobs" goes to fellow men. That is why irrespective of the claims that men help only women, most rich people in the society still turn out to be men. The problem is that some guys are not "helpable". The greed and entitlement mentality once you give them financial help, make it easier to shift focus to ladies where there is clear definition for the help |
