When a Nigerian man decides that a woman is incompatible with him, he is intimidated. If it was a foreign man, would he also be considered as having been intimidated? Una too talk. When talk too much, na yeye go dey comot.

Everyone knows what kind of man/woman he/she wants and decisions are made on that basis. Why should a man marry a woman he knows he cannot live successfully with?

Sigh!!!

men want a woman like Proverbs 31 right? Good. can we compare those days with today? you want a woman who works to bring in money, care for children, the home, meet your emotional needs whenever you want it etc etc.

Ha! Aha!! Abeg Artificial Insemination please.


Thank God for reproductive science!!!! Thank God for sperm banks. Ladies, just harvest some good "eggs" freeze them for later use and throw out any fool that qualifies out of the house, into the streets where he belongs--homeless!!!!!

By now most females should have had enough sex in this life time to do without the abuse of being with an irresponsible man. Just stick to companionship---pay as you go romance--- and let the dog stay in the doggout where it belongs. Having no man at all is better than having a useless one. Thank God for small mercies--no need to search anymore. A lot of crap out there. I look at some women and just have to remember them in ma prayers. Will never put up with such. All in the mighty name of marriage--a woman will put up with an slowpoke for a husband?

@Topic because most Nigerian men are insecure, lazy, lack proper upbringing, stupid, useless and lack a sense of direction. Only about 10% are normal for about 20

Yesssssirrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! MR TRADO-MEDICAL!!!! it is my prerogative to do just so for I am not looking for a "husband"-- and even if I were--I know where to look ok--definitely never in your direction ok? Your kind will never cross my horizon for sheer lack of common sense--not to even dig deeper to find what other components you are missing. You would have been history within 6 months maximum, just in time to get the marriage annulled and wiped clean from ma records. So I can jolly well tell you what I think and the heck with you! Not even looking for a "date" to attend any Nairaland juvvy prom. Thank your fading, lucky stars for females like Londoner who are ever ready to gently break things down to your kind like sets of retarded children with multiple genetic anomalies--in a special Ed's classroom. I believe in the school of "hard knocks" since that is the only language the typical Nigerian Chauvanistic Pig of a Male understands.

Please try and get married first then come back and tell us who will put up with your local tout of a village arse. With your village mentality, you can only go so far. The reason why Caucasian and African American ladies deal with your primitive arses over here--- most of you end up running for your dear lives, back to Nigeria since you cannot fit in with life long emotional scars. Only to fall in to the hands of some pitiful, unsuspecting Nigerian females that do not know any better---stupidly rejoycing that Chris Okotie or some Holy guy has answered their prayers. Only to find out later they inherited some "psychological and Emotional" shits of train wreck not 'fixable"---but severely damaged goods. A never ending reality TV show of "HELL DATE"!!!!

We see all the new brides all the time here like living corpses with no where to get help since they sealed their fate in damnation to "controlling village kolomental spouses". They are often in and out of Police custody for domestic violence with records that can clog up Wikidoodle. I wish people like your kind will come my way. You need a sound education. I do not have go telling you about my personal life since I have long learned several "sweet" lessons from many loving Nairaland members in the past. All I will tell you is to find one of your "local village brides" you guys are so accustomed to over there and let us look for our "city" dudes. I am happy to inform you that I am light years ahead of most of you in this game and I got it right.

Not like most of you in your teens and 20's whose parents failed to teach the art of tolerance, accomodation, teamwork and compromise. Now you want to make up for your genetic mishaps by hinging to some religion or culture that came about when you were not even in existence. Like you are some mule that can be led to the sacrificial block at any time. Mr. Do as I say and not as I Do! Don't you have a brain? Obviously when you tap your head a hollow sound designates that "no one was ever home"!!!!

When most of you practically raised yourselves, running around polygamous compounds sleeping with yourselves and siblings under impoverished abusive conditions--how would you have any ethical or moral compass to know what it entails to be in any healthy "relationship"? Never taught any sense of direction or iota of self-respect, when your parents were too busy diving in and out of other peoples privates to care what you were doing. Now you think you can control everything that comes your way?

Keep nodding in silence like an "Agama lizard" When you get to age 40 and approaching male menopause--I am sure your village elders can parcel you some "degenerate mail order bride" over your way to poison your arse for some insurance money in the future! I will glady rejoice at one less--six feet under- the world will be too happy to be rid off.

Keep nodding I say---You Agama Lizard!!!!

Did you notice that in the abstract, the effects of women working took a toll on the men within 10 years.  The men came up with illnesses such as strokes, cancer and other stress related illnesses. 

Hmmmm!  I wonder why?  When they are too busy calculating the wives pay checks and wondering how to sabotage their plans of of establishing successful futures if the wives ever decided to leave their lazy behinds.  It becomes an intenal spriritual struggle for most of the men.  Instead of working well with their wives for supplementing the family income, they are coming up with all sorts of real and imagined illnesses to further frustrate these poor women.  The women are the ones to be pitied in this study, due to the stress caused by lazy, intimidated men who will not work and will not allow the women to work in peace.

Does it ever stop?

The women are working and the men are still dying? grin I can understand if the women are dying out of stress.  What causes the men to die is the frustration of not being in control anymore.  It is better for both of us to die --than for me to remain in the kitchen and burn my knuckles and eyelashes to death--or risk being thrown out of my own home 30 years later, in case Mr. Almondo decides I am not the one any more. grin 

House hold level stress caused by "bitching, lazy, fat-butted, balding, pot-bellied men"--driving taxis all over down town LA--with less than $20 to show in his pocket at the end of each day!!!!!!! Further caused by those lazy bums of men who threaten to drag themselves and their wives down the hellish paths of social and economic damnation.

Poor old woman

Don't you know I am from Edo state--with all pride?  The word slut is very common and I personally take pride in it.  Since you specialize in old ones--I could not teach you anything new.  It looks like you have something against old folks.  Is it a crime to be old or is it an insult to be old? shocked--I am living and loving my old life--pray you get as old as I am. 

I would rather be an old fool than a young blundering twit-Arrow like you who goes around picking up 80 year old prostitutes from Edo State like me for one-night stands--where you claim to be happily married! cheesy  At 20, you are alreading suffering from decreased libido when you masturbate for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Only God knows what your cement floor or carpet looks like. How won't you suffer from erectile dysfunction as you confessed? Poor Mrs. Frankies.  Please remember to take paternity tests on those 2 kids you say you have--they are very suspect from different fathers.

If I ever needed help, I would never look at your masturbating direction for one.  Gosh!  What vermin! angry  So deal with your problems first--Major Wanka! Don't get me wrong--nothing wrong with turning tricks on yourself.  It is just that most of us are way too advanced for that kiddy stuff and are into other things now.  I stopped doing that when I was 5 years old---75 years ago---you monkey! So grow up and catch up!  slowpoke!

Please go and attend to your cyber cafe before Interpol swarms the place with your global 419 dealings.  At least I am retired and gone into private practice in my slutting. You are still navigating your tokunbo okada from street to street looking for geriatric pick-ups--for your dead bum equipment--on credit.  My clients come to me at home on an appointment basis so Nairaland is my full time job.  Idiot!

Re: Why Are Nigerian Men Intimidated By The Strong Independent Black Woman? by Nobody: 5:05pm On Apr 13, 2010
It's not that (Nigerian) men are intimidated by strong independent women its their attitudes that cause the friction. As a woman you may ask "why would i say that?" its pretty obvious. Due the the fact that the majority of the world is westernized our traditions have changed drastically. Some odd 50 years ago on back, a womans job was to be a mother and a good wife. She stayed home, raised the children, cooked meals and set an example to her daughter and represented the type of woman her son would desire. Now, the tides have changed. Back then a man was a man. He took care of his house hold financially, and set the rules as the 'King of the Castle' with his wife by his side.

Then comes the blasted women's movement. . . .

Now the roles have reversed. A so called womens' empowerment movement became more anti-men and pro extreme feminism so now you have men who are constantly attacked, their manhood challenged and their perspectives changed. A man is seen as useless and automatically chauvinistic: the enemy. As women began to climb the economic social ladder, their heads blow up like a helium balloon! Their men are constantly chastised for not making as much as them, the womens' expectations sky rocketed, men had to make a certain amount of money just to even smile at them.

Now?
The household is divided, i seldom hear of children/ young adults of my generation whose parents have not divorced if they were even married. Main reason? the fusion of the roles and financial disagreements.
Women who are independent are to be respected yes, but one cannot change her attitude once she is bringing in a decent salary and then wonder why she is single.

The more importent question is to what extent did foreign missionaries change the gender dynamic in various societies throughout Arica? When I read history books and primary sources testamonials from first contact accounts women seemed very integrated(more so then other places around the world anyway). They also played pivital roles throughout history. There are also lots of societies that are(were) matrilineal. Most of this "women stay at home" talk sound plainly biblical (I.E recent) and reminds me of a village were missionaries told the people it wasn't "proper" to take the names of thier wives as was custom

This question actually deserves it's own topic.

I'll leave on this message for the ladies...

Men and Women are philosophically equal; as in, their total input in a family unit is normally equal.

That doesn’t contradict the fact that in Africa and almost everywhere else in the world of today, the male partner is head of the home.

Partnership or marriage is a team thing. All and every successful team is bound to have a boss.

Without a boss there are no rules, absence of rules leads to lawlessness. Lawlessness leads to lack of discipline; and absence of a disciplined family unit leads to all sorts of problems.
Re: Why Are Nigerian Men Intimidated By The Strong Independent Black Woman? by Guru10450(m): 4:25pm On Apr 25, 2019
Nigerian men are essentially African men, In Africa and almost everywhere else in the world, the male partner is known as the head of the family unit.

When I was a bachelor, if you gave me a partner millionaire that doesn’t respect me as head of her home, and I instantly will run away faster than Usain Bolt in search of better half.

Show me my partner that is not too rich, not too poor, yet, respects me as the head of our home and I will instantly become the happiest person alive.

I am currently happily married.

There cannot be two different drivers of a single automobile.

Think of the family unit as a vehicle. A vehicle needs a driver to help create a forward/backward motion.

Some women are born to be leaders both at home and anywhere else, I know. However, normally the male partner is known as the default leader of our homes.
