That serves her right, a generation that lacks morals. Why will she wear the leg chain to an interview

Anklets are used to identify commercial sex workers in certain locations.
Majority of women wearing anklets are runs babes who in most cases are commercial sex workers.
Every side chick is a commercial sex worker.
Every Woman who sleeps with a married man is a commercial sex worker.

If only the idiot and her so called friend know the symbolic meaning of what wearing a leg chain entails instead of just blindly following fashion trends of the world.

"Any woman wearing chain on their legs,means is a prostitute or married but available to other men"

Please, share a link or clear evidence of that bold claim... What part of our national, international, or spiritual body of law was that clearly stated?!! I will wait!

Why should a responsible musician do such? Let's stop encouraging irresponsibility for celebrities. If you don't have a problem with a celebrity/role model doing it, then you've endorsed it vicariously.

Bring up a law or laid down principle criminalizing leg chains among women... If something is not clearly spelt out as unlawful, then personal prejudices are worthless and unacceptable.

is there any law that state you must be well dressed and neat while attending an interview. This is just a thing of common Sense. I hope you don't dress tatared for an interview and when you don't get picked you start quoting laws or asking which law stipulate that you mush dress well and neat for an interview. And as a guy you fit still dye your hair or plait am as for interview as long as say e no dey law

She's in Nigeria, she doesn't need a prophet or babalawo to tell her how things are done here. Taking that chain off for some minutes won't kill her.

Even in Western world where most things are overlooked there's a way you're expected to dress In a corporate setting.....You can't attend a meeting with everybody wearing suit and you walk in on sagging jean and Tshirt.

What is even wrong with all these generation of fish brain? And they'll still be claiming they know even when you're trying to correct them.

What has the leg chain yielded her so far?
Ok, now that she lost a good offer because of some stupid leg chain, is the chain going to feed her?

There are ways to dress to different functions and places. A leg chain will only pass you off as a core or club girl. If she wore it to a club interview, she would have been considered but in a corporate organization, it's a no no. You're required to dress properly and look responsible.

I hope she's learnt her lesson.
so your dog for house na leg una de put the chain abi?

You had the opportunity to show that you are responsible but you missed that big league. First, sympathize with the girl and show some humanity. Your write up shows how haughty and exuberant you are.
Leg chains are African culture. If you know nothing about culture, learn. Having a leg chain is not a sign of irresponsibility. It is fashion and culture. The lady who denied her a job may be sleeping with someone's husband or be involved in some form of fraudulence.

People like you feed into the narrative of societal oppression and bully. All politicians dress up nicely while robbing the existence off millions of people.
I pray you never sit in a position to determine the faith of your fellow human being. You will deny many innocent people oxygen if you had the power.
If the company has a dress code, the employer can list that out to the candidate. Simply ask her not to wear the chain to work. Many companies provide uniforms for their employees because they want to maintain a particular dress code. Other companies train their employees. But denying someone an opportunity on the spot cos they don't share your values is a vice in the society. Pray that you do not live in a western society with this mentality of yours. They will sue your dirty behind until you learn how to respect and tolerate others.

What has a leg chain got to do with the job, was the question... Now the answer is... What is the work of the leg chain on the leg...

I have come to a conclusion that many people don't have any tangible reasons as to why they do some certain things in this life, because u see other people do it, u too just want to do it...

If for example my friend who is a musician tints his hair, pierce his ear and draws tattoo on his body (just to promote his hustle) and because it looks good on him, then me an aspiring banker or a medical doctor should i now go and do same, just because it looks good... Anyway I digress

This empty skull headed girl, would see it as normal and something accepted by the general public...

Am happy she did not get the Job... Cause her appearance has already showed she's irresponsible...

Okay... I now understand your personal distaste. But, that doesn't make their choice of dressing wrong.

That we dislike certain dress codes doesn't make them wrong... Let's keep things in proper perspective.

I personally don't fancy excessive body adornments, especially in formal work settings. But, there is a thin line between distaste and insensitivity or abusing a person's rights.

As long as a person's dressing or adornments don't interfere with his or her job delivery, or doesn't negate the company's principles, then it should be overlooked.

There is Culture, Norms and Codes in everything we do.
It is a Dress code to put on a Socks, when you put on a Tie, itis an English Dress code but l see a lot of Nigerians not put on a Socks, when putting on a Tie and it is irritating because it offends the Dress Code.

It is a Food etiquette to not make "sounds" with your mouth when chewing but sometimes, l just hear people chewing pasham-pasham like a Dog and it is very irritating, because it shows lack of finesse and god home training.

I know, we are now living in a very permissive era pf "No Rules" but Rules are there for a reason!
I see some Governors put on face cap, on a Traditional Dress, as if they are Touts and Thugs or Street Urchins! WTF
Some even out on Canverse / Sneakers on a Babanriga or Agbada! How more stoopid can it get?

A 'CODE' is a 'Rule' that one should follow, you cannot just say l will do it as l like! Why then is it a "Code"?

People should learn to dress properly, dress properly for the particular occasion and be mindful of their appearance because it says a lot about you.. FIRST IMPRESSION COUNTS.

You can only exercise your "personal right" within your own confines, not in public space or in other people's space. Your Right ends, where theirs, starts.

She might have a reason for wearing the leg chain but it's not what the company is looking for. And for her to know it was because of the leg chain means they told her.

That's some unusual level of backward reasoning right there!

Maybe you should do some actual research on how or when leg adornments started.

The people that use it 95% in this our society today is olosho...u cant find any responsible being in our society today with a leg chain, responsible married women don't use it... Olosho, single mothers ..etc damaged women all together use it ...I don't need any research..na olosho dey use am...even u be olosho..I detest olosho because they are daughters of jezebel...

That "girl that wears anklet" was a euphemism for prostitute when I was growing up. I noticed that most girls wearing anklets were shameless whores.Some naive people think it's fashion but it's symbolic.

The yeye interviewee would have been thinking the people there are onijekuje, who would rush her.Those guys are smart.

You displayed matured objectivity here.

She went for an interview....ostensibly in a corporate set-up and she wore a leg chain. There are some organisations that wouldn't bother about it,some other companies will not even allow you access to the panel. Why not steer the middle course....go without the leg chain, nose studs or multiple earrings and then after joining the organisation you can gently show them your true colours.

By the way,those of you approving of this dress code....I hope you will be happy the day you are attended to at public offices with bikini clad officials....after-all the hood doesn't make the monk.

Bro, some guys now use leg chains and waist beads. To add to the list, some guys now pierce their nose.

Over and over again, I have asked myself this question: How do all these things enhance — positively — their look?

I mean, if u’re pretty or handsome, or ugly, a leg chain won’t make you look more pretty or handsome.

Some people actions makes me wonder .. are we really ready to enjoy freedom ?
Her line of defense may be “ it’s my body “ it’s a free world “ “ does it harm you “ ?
Apart from dancing , I’m yet to wonder the beauty or relevance of leg chain .
Does it bring confidence or add to beauty ?
All I know as long as Nigeria culture is concerned is that it attracts men and women of easy virtue to the wearer .
Morality and decency should be upheld .

Anklets were worn by married women who slept with other men with the knowledge of their husbands.

In other words if u saw a woman wearing an anklet it's a susggestion she is sexually available with reprecursions.
