do you know the meaning of 10th cousin that's over 600 year blood relatives

Do you know that in some villages or communities do not marry from certain communities or villages because they are blood related till today and that rule is passed down from generation to generation.I mean in IGBOLAND.

In my place second cousins can actually marry so far the relationship is maternal. We don't marry our paternal relations even to the 109th cousins, it is forbidden.

Crappy talk! What you call mummy GO cloth is the modest attraction for some men. Stop generalizing your cynical views; not every man likes his woman to be whorelike

Nobody is saying she should be whorelike, but men are attracted to what they see, no matter how you try to put it, no man on earth will like his woman dressing like a grand mother. Nobody is saying she should dress like a LovePeddler outside, but once we are at home, my lady is free to look like cardi b for me.

1st cousins have the same grandparents. Their parents are all siblings.
2nd cousins have same great grandparents
3rd cousins have same great great grandparents
4th cousins have same great great great grandparents
5th cousins have same great great great great grandparents
6th cousins have same ……etc harsh
🟡Omo ur culture harsh o. If they wanna marry from 6th cousins, nobody should stop them. Muslims do that wella.

Health implications for lst cousins even 2nd cousins & very close relations not too far down the line marrying are too dastardly. Omo we have blood not clotting well, that was even the genesis of Leukemia, when royal families years past decided to marry themselves.
The health implications caused the culture to be discouraged among the English.





There are two 2nd cousins in my family who got married sha, agaińst all insistence. Grandmother said over her dead body. When the relationship began.

They were very stubbornly in love and simply waited for Grandmother to die & oldest man in family to die and they married 💍💍💍wella. Today, they have two children 👧🏾 👦 . Husband, wife children everybody almost same face undecided same blood 🩸 🥲.

Giving unnecessary rules for dating abi courtship

Life happens, if it doesn't work out, we path ways. I have found the one who satisfies my soul and I intend to wife her very soon.

I don't date any lady I don't see a future with, I don't have time for games.

It is not only because they are blood related but maybe due to other differences.

I am referring to situation where a community don't marry from another community.

The love birds got married against the wishes of the elders that doesn't make it normal.

Pls allow these couples to breath and don't suffocate their new marriage with unfounded accusations. Whether the wife is senior is none of our businesses but the man's business.
Congratulations to them anyways.

[UPDATE] VIDEO: Tiv Bride Who Insisted On Marrying Her Cousin Brother In Benue Narrates Actual Relationship



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zd6A-SkSBSg

She spoke in a mixture of Tiv and English

For those who don't understand Tiv language, she agreed that the voice in the conversation is the groom's dad's voice but she said they are not cousins.
She said they are related along the line but it's by their great-great grandparents not even the grandparents.
She said all this happened during the trade-by-barter era when they were not even born and the woman they traded on their side is not even her great-grandmother.
She admitted knowing so much about the Tiv culture and if they were cousins, she wouldn't have proceeded with the marriage.
my be say bro's this women senior you period

Re: Update On Tiv Bride Who Insisted On Marrying Her 'Cousin' In Benue by BJanta: 12:33pm On Jul 22, 2023
Agreed. But are the grandparents not the offsprings of the great grandparents? Then,are the parents not from the grandparents? They really are not related cos I do not understand relationship beside this. The fact is, this lady's time is past, she's just in her last minutes. Hence the desperation.

In my place it is very common for cousins to marry. It is even encouraged by elders. I myself married my cousin sister and we have three children now.
Where's that?l seem to love it

She should stop wearing all these mummy G.O cloth. That's why I tell every woman I date that I don't even want to see anything that looks like wrapper in the house.
I see nothing wrong with her dressing, Infact I love those outfits.
I’m already tired of women with too much packaging which comes with a lot of baggage that eventually wear someone out

Because you're still dating.

Better don't marry, if you see wearing wrapper is a deal-breaker.

Shows who leads in the relationship.

My father's house is the biggest in Africa says the boy who has not left his village. Lollz

Nigerian women are not even in the Top 4 of most beautiful women in Africa.

Where do you place Somalia, Ethiopia, Rwanda, South Africa and Tanzania?



Eriokanmi:
You no fit go Benue oo, as you dey appreciate the woman's beauty like this. Tivs have beautiful women. Most of them don't go outside their state . Nigerian ladies are the most beautiful in Africa. Sadly, the encroachment of Western culture is making them behave strangely all in the name of feminism
