Africans Need To Be Modernize by ghboytelle(m): 7:36am On Dec 22, 2011
I am very sorry,but we need to grow up ,as in we need to act our era. I am sick and tired of going on African sites  and seeing ppl  being insulted for asking a modernize question. One of these questions is about marriage. I seriously cannot see a 21 year old marrying and having kids. It's not like olden times where people by the age of 16 have most of their future sorted out and are sure of a job to provide for their family. This is the 21st century where we might not even get a proper job at 24 years old.

So i ask this question why must we Africans not understand when a women or even a man at the age of 30 still not married?. As a result we resort to insulting them by  telling them to hurry up,theirs no chance , you will be single forever ect,

were not in the past anymore medicines,law, and everything has advanced.

start thinking like ppl today and  stop condemning ppl who are not married by 24 or 28,29 whatever ,we got a career to be thinking about nobody wants to deprive their children of something because of money issues. Get the better Job you want now and stop thinking about marriage.

education and money are important in today's world weather u like it or not.

Thank you thank you. Some of us are still in school and our parents chasing us on marriage and grandchildren issues. E don tey wey I break my biological clock. I simply go as the wind blows. I can't be rushing to meet marriage and child-bearing deadlines because of agadis who have already lived their own lives. At about 55-60, our parents should get golfing memberships and travel, rather than meddle into the affairs of their children because they hardly make sense. 1975 and 2011 contrast extremely. Jobs that didn't need much education now require one or two levels of university degrees. Money first, family later. That is, if you wish to live comfortably.

You need to modernize your grammar.
Re: Africans Need To Be Modernize by Mynd44: 7:39pm On Dec 22, 2011
And this is supposed to do what? Seriously people should stop blaming others for their misfortune. Granted you are being pressured to marry, did they tie you arms and leg and force you? Evrything is a choice and your future is nobody's responsibility except you. So if you say you got married becaiuse the insults are too much then be ready for more.
Feminist jargons. You want something that is already yours

You are absolutely right ,I'd be happy if you would point out my mistakes so i can improve. My very poor grammar is due to having too grow up with an illiterate mother, a grandmother who couldn't speak English, and a poor school system that didn't spend much time teaching me how to correctly write. At the moment i am learning things on my own.

but choice can also be influenced.Stop trying to ignore the fact that people strongly make their decision based on public opinion,especially if it is from close relatives like mom and dad.

So you would forfeit your future just cos mum and dad are disturbing you?
Is there no difference between pressure and forcing? You always have a choice and if women are as half as strong as they claim to be then they should be able to resist pressure

Exactly what I had in mind to say. In addition, as far as I know, most of the feminism we see being flung around these days is borne out of inner frustration towards the menfolk.

grin grin grin

Lets see where their feminism gets them
their kids tend to suffer and have this wayward look about live
feminist tend to give birth to daughters who see the world like their mom and so on and so forth
Just cos of the mistakes idiosyncratic of one woman she destroys her entire generation

Re: Africans Need To Be Modernize by ghboytelle(m): 12:32am On Dec 23, 2011
um you guys i am not a girl,just so you know. By the way not all of us lives in nigeria some of us are in a more modernize country.

it's ether you get a good job now , or let your kids suffer. how many 24 year olds do you know have a stable job?. Plus everyone knows no one in the relationship should be dependent on the other. would u really allow your own little sister to be a house wife to some block?.
we don't live in the african jungles anymore, were now living in cities where we need money from BOTH partners.

start thinking our era stop thinking your parents era. cheesy
