Men and women are different. Seeing a naked woman is enough to turn on a man. For women, they need to feel an emotional connection

All these men using passive aggressive tactics are fooling themselves. They're just killing whatever emotional connection the woman has to them

If a woman is strongly emotionally connected to you, you don't even have to do pre-intimacy. Just coming close to her will turn her on and make her wet
How old are you and are you married? The bold part of your comment na CAP o grin grin grin, by the time you get to your fifth year and beyond in marriage, her libido after kids ain't gonna be the same again, this also applies to you. When you dey work like machine and before the salary enters your account, bills don dey scream, "COME TO DADDY" , you'll be lucky to smash once a week, some people sef na once or twice a month.....Anyways I love your optimism, keep it up make I no spoil your fantasy grin

[s]■ Don't assume your delusions as mine. I never said anything about "flesh" in any of what I stated. I stated clearly that the agreement was was made them one, not sex. And I went on to point out several instances in the Bible where the agreement was all it took to make that happen. undecided[/s] Again you're arguing with yourself, main point of argumen, sex grants automatic rights to intimacy in a marriage, you disagreed and tried to use Jesus as your evidence, you've so far failed to dispute the meaning of the two shall become one flesh. Anything you say that cannot disprove the passages below is considered null and void:
Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh. (Gen. 2:24)
God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. And God blessed them and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply.” (Gen. 1:27–28)

[s]■ David erred a lot but one of his many sins wasn't that he slept with his father's wives. Absalom slept with David's wife but not once was David accused of sleeping with his father's wives. There is even a record of David eventually divorcing himself from other wives of his whom he never slept with in the same scripture. Again, the point here marriage is based on the agreement and not necessarily intercourse. undecided[/s] The Bible did not explitcitly confirm whether he slept with them or not, going by David's record it is amazing that you chose to believe he didn't, again your believe does not necessarily equate to facts!

[s]■ The point is Joseph and Mary where declared husband and wife by God even without them having intercourse. I believe Jesus Christ was the only offspring of Mary's. undecided[/s] You can believe anything, it does not make it factual!

■ Again, sex can happen outside of marriage, and marriage does not require intercourse as validation, meaning that sex is not a right .i.e. you are not automatically entitled to sex in marriage. Again, read up in David and his wives. undecided

[s]I brought up the story of rape to help back up my point marriage, the union is not entered into when intercourse takes place but instead when the agreement is made. If you go back through my previous retort,you would realize that we the point I was making from its beginning.[/s] undecided
Finally, let me make this clear to you for the last time, this argument was never about marriage but what marriage gives to you, your argument that it does not automatically give you any rights to intercourse has been disproven, even with David, he made a personal choice, it does not mean it was right in the eyes of God, would he have made the same decision if he had no children or other wives? You're equating this to the traditional role of one man to one woman? You're funny! This is getting boring, anyone that has read our discourse so far knows that you are full of hot air, your laughable attempt to erase the word FLESH from the Bible and your amnesia in knowing what be fruitful and multply means shows that there's no point in continuing this charade......I wish you best of luck in your ignorance, I will no longer reply.....PEACE!

The agreement makes them one! undecided

I used the example of Adam and Eve, to show you this but I see that went over your head there so here goes. undecided

[s]Again, read what God decreed in verse 24. God didn't say they only become one when they have had sex. Instead the agreement between the man and woman is what makes them one. undecided[/s]

■Adam and Eve where one such couple.

[s]■ Another example of this is seen when Nathan , the prophet, tells David of how God gave Saul's wives to David. Ofcourse, It was, and still is, against the Old Covenant Law of Moses for David, or any man to sleep with his father's wife - Leviticus18 vs 8 & Deuteronomy 27 vs 20 - so even though the women were wived to Him by God, David could not sleep with them, yet was married to them. undecided[/s]

[s]■ The marriage of Joseph and Mary, Parents of Jesus Christ, is another good example. Mary was to marry Joseph who then discovered she was already pregnant with Jesus Christ but they became husband and wife regardless. - Matthew 1 vs 18 - 25 undecided[/s]
[s]
■ Another bizarre example for this case is found in Genesis 34 vs 1 - 31 where Dinah, Jacob's daughter was raped. There was no agreement between Dinah and her rapist, Shepherd, so they were not considered husband and wife. Shechem offers to marry Dinah- Genesis 34 vs 8-12 - this after the rape, but they are not in anyway regarded as husband and wife as a result of the intercourse.
[/s]


Sorry but you're cracking me up cheesy cheesy cheesy. They become one in body, mind and spirit. Flesh was explitcitly used so don't try this ridiculous spinoff, just don't! Be fruitful and multiply in marriage means only one thing, I don't care what universe you try to base your interpreation on, it means to grow, to duplicate, to reproduce and all these ain't happening without lapoopoolala!

Moving on, first point about David, you have no idea whether he slept with them or not, all we know for sure is that David was a man who erred a lot, a man that could kill another man because of that man's wife yet he is to be trusted not to break some other sacred laws? Yea keep deceiving yourself!

Next, your example of Mary and Joseph is correct but was Joseph or Mary forbidden from having intercourse? Did they have intercourse after Mary was no longer preganant? Go and read about the siblings of Jesus and tell me what I've written is so farfetched.....lol.

Your third example makes no sense, sex does not make you husband and wife, this was never my argument rather by virtue of marriage you are automatically entitled to intimacy. Your attempt to use rape to discredit this shows that you've lost the plot and desperately grasping at straws! I suggest you reevaluate yourself and know that not all arguments can be won, there is no need for such desperation!

[s] 1. Marriage is an agreement between a man and woman, once that agreement is made, marriage has happened and they are one. Adam and Eve didn't first copulate before their marriage happened. undecided[/s] Adam and Eve were never married.....Another fallacy here!

2. [s]Sexual rights to what? God never decreed that men must never have sex ..He equipped even those He created Eunuchs with sex organs. And He does not rain fire and brimstone on unbelievers when they engage in sex as they chose. No, God doesn't do ghag at all so what you refer to as sexual right is a lot iffy. [/s] Keep the discussion to marriage only, in a marriage does the two become one FLESH or not? If you answer NO, then you're contradicting the word of God, if you answer YES then WTF are you arguing?

[s]When it comes to those who belong to Jesus Christ, however, one can maybe declare then that God's Law restricts sex to only those in marriage relationships but even then sex isn't stipulated or mandated[/s]. undecided
Again another contradiction, if sex in marriage was not mandated how then do they become one FLESH? How do they go forth and multiply? Again, you keep contradicting the word of God.....Are you okay?

1. What contradiction? undecided

2. LOL... Jesus Christ Himself said that if you use the understanding you have, more understanding will be given to you. Those who don't use the understanding they have will have even the little they have taken from them - Matthew 13 vs 10 - 17 & Mark 4 vs 21 - 24. undecided

If you can't even take God at His own Word, are you certain it is God you believe in? undecided

The Spirit of Truth and the Holy Spirit are only available to those who live in continual submission to and obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ - John 14 vs 15 - 25 & John 16 vs 8 - 22 undecided

3. Jesus Christ warned you against the doctrines and traditions of men(including their churches) warning that they are nothing but lies, an abomination where the Truth of God is concerned - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 and Mark 7 vs 1 - 23.

4. Jesus Christ did not command men to marry. Instead Jesus Christ upheld God's Law from the beginning - Genesis 2 vs 24, Mark 10 vs 6 - 9 & Matthew 19 vs 3 - 5 - that marriage is an agreement between a man and a woman where both become one flesh, this even as He makes it clear that just as God decreed it then also, marriage is a choice and not a mandate, this by God. God Himself declared this law from the beginning. undecided

Jesus Christ came to redeem even those who are married from the curse God placed even on marriage - Genesis 3 vs 16 - 22 - the salvation He grants is a complete package from the condemnation of Sin aka Death as decreed by God from the time of Adam and Eve. undecided
4. Jesus Christ did not command men to marry.

God Himself declared this law from the beginning. undecided
=======

So what happens if they chose not to become one flesh? Do they still satisfy God's law? You're just digging yourself a bigger hole, remember the initial comment that started your rambling......Marriage does not give the man or woman sexual rights......If this was true how then do they become one flesh? This argument was never about marriage but sexual rights within marriage. You just dey type rubbish all in the name of forming "argumentator extraordinaire", when in fact you know nothing!

1. I have in no way contradicted myself here. I have simply stated what Jesus Christ Himself declared as far as His Kindom is concerned. undecided

What Jesus Christ said is your marriages are of this world and not of His Kingdom. If you would use your head in this, you would have figured this means all relationships that come about as a result of marriage are implied... He didn't say you can then throw anything else you'll want into that statement He declared in Luke 20 vs 34 - 36 though . So again, learn to keep your delusions out of what is written. undecided

2. Marriage is not sin and sin is not marriage. Stay focused! God defined marriage in Genesis 2 vs 24, Mark 10 vs 6 - 9 & Matthew 19 vs 3 - 5. He specified no right or laws for either the man or woman to in their marriage agreement. undecided

3. Adultery is sin and divorce are sins and these are separately defined by Jesus Christ in Matthew 5 vs 27 - 32 and Matthew 19 vs 6 - 15. These laws guide those who make the decision to exit a marriage. Again, note there are no rights specified as far as those who sin or chose to exit a marriage.undecided

4. Again, I suggest you pick up that book to read it for yourself so you can learn the Truth of God from the many lies you have carefully imbibed in ignorance.. undecided
You're repeating the same thing, contradictions upon contradictions. Surely the Holy Spirit did not reveal this to you, I get your point now, you're one of those that take the Bible word for word without understanding the true meaning. There are tons of research by Biblical scholars out there that goes into full details of the passages you quoted including context, I'm afraid if it comes from me you'll get defensive and keep regurgitating the same fallacy. Marriage is not of his kingdom but at the same time he commands man and wife to become one flesh while married.....Until you can resolve this contradiction, your words are nothing but efufulele and I'll continue viewing you as a comedian grin grin grin

1. Jesus Christ did not come to diminish marriage, neither did He change anything of what God already declared regarding marriage this in Genesis 2 vs 24 and Matthew 19 vs 3- 5, which is that marriage is a contract between a man and a woman - no parents, or clerics stipulated - when they join/mate/consumate/cleave. undecided

[s]2. In Luke 20 vs 34 -36 & Mark 12 vs 18 - 27, Jesus Christ taught that your marriages are of this world and not of the Kingdom of God meaning your marriage relationship starts and ends here in this world. Your relationship to your husband, your children, in-laws etc., matter only in this world - such relationships and their definition mean absolutely nothing in the Kingdom of God. undecided[/s]

in Matthew 12 vs 48 - 50 & Luke 8 vs 19 - 21, Jesus Christ said that in the Kingdom of God, His brothers, mother and sister are those who do the Will of God. Relationships in the Kingdom of God are formed between those who do the will of God. undecided

3. Visit point (1) above. undecided

4. I am afraid you are the one reading your delusion into what is written there in Mark 12 vs 18 - 27. I suggest you reread that passage again to understand why Jesus Christ introduced the mention of God being God of the living and not God of the dead. undecided

5. This confusion has all to do with you and not God or Jesus Christ at all since you are the one who misconstrue what is easily comprehended. undecided

6. You are clearly not one who has read the Bible for yourself as even your so called interpretations are not of you but of the lies I have heard so many mogs preach from their pulpits in the name or God.. undecided

Again, Genesis 2 vs 24, Mark 10 vs 6 - 9 & Matthew 19 vs 3 - 5 , tell you exactly the same thing I have been saying which is that God of the Bible decreed that marriage is a contract between a man and a woman and is sealed when they join/cleave/mate/consumate. That details of the contract God left for them to decide for themselves. There are no additional laws placed by God on them as far as there marriage is concerned - no laws regarding children, sex, roles etc., absolutely none. undecided[s][/s]

Those other religions may impose rules on their own ideas of marriage but where the Christian God is concerned, the terms and conditions of a marriage are left up to the man and woman to decide of their own. In most countries, it is the same. undecided
You are just contradicting yourself, if we are to go by your definition nothing we do in this world matters at all since they are of this world and this world alone......Not your good deeds, not your bad deeds....nothing! Can you see how simply illogical that sounds? I have already explained to you the interpretation behind those passages but you still chose to repeat the same sentimental rhetoric.....Why?

You mean a God that strictly gave commands to go forth and multiply, that said he that found a wife has found a good thing was just saying all that for publicity? Thou shall not commit adultery, becoming of one flesh is just cheap talk? Man and woman while married can choose not to become one flesh? They can choose not to commit adultery and not multiply and all will be well in the sight of God because anything they do in their marriage is up to them and not for or against any heavenly commandment? I'm trying to find logic in your assertions but the more I read and comprehend your premise and supporting rhetoric, the more I laugh....This is beyond comedy and quite frankly continuing to argue with you is not worth it grin grin grin

I am afraid you are still not getting it at all. In Christianity, the opinion of a man, even Paul, can't be said to overule the declaration of the One who is Lord, Master and King over all those who belong in the Kingdom of God, Jesus Christ, the Christ in the word 'Christianity'. Paul's every opinions, as expressed in his many letters mean absolutely nothing where Jesus Christ, the one who is Law is concerned. undecided

If you had at least taken to reading the book for yourself instead of gobbling up the foolish lies told you by your Pastors and gods of men, you would have saved your self the money and time you invested to obtain nothing but hogwash from them as far as understanding of the belief is concerned. undecided

Sexual immorality is a thing in the Old Covenant - Jewish law which was given by God to those who are of the blood of Jacob aka Jews, but not in the New Covenant, this since Jesus Christ gave to His followers, those you call Christians, a new Law complete with standards higher than those of the Old Covenant. undecided

If you are indeed a Christian, I suggest again, you pick up that book for yourself so you can be sure where you Re headed if at all. undecided

As for marriage granting you rights, it does absolutely no such thing... not according to God's terms. Even man's Law on marriage leaves it open to couples to decide what their roles in their marriage will be - apart from property laws and taxes, your rights in yout marriage is up to you and your wife. undecided
I have probably studied that book and other religious books than you have studied any book in your lifetime. History and theology are my favorite subject areas. You want to prove that Jesus Christ came to diminish the value of marriage, where in fact what he said was not really about marriage but our existence as a whole!

Marriage is for people of this world, in heaven they don't deal with such things, it is non consequential. In short, Jesus is saying: All of your laws and ideas about marriage, family, children, inheritance of property, family lineage, and so on, simply don’t exist in the afterlife! “You are badly mistaken!” (Mark 12:27).

This is what Jesus also said:
At the beginning of creation God “made them male and female.” “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate. (Mark 10:6–9)

Interpreting Jesus’ words to the Sadducees to mean that there is no marriage in heaven would cause Jesus to contradict both himself and the Bible as a whole. God created male and female to be joined together as one. And just as God is not the God of the dead but of the living, so everything God does is not temporary, but eternal.

So it is either you are calling Jesus confused or you are saying God is not truthful, which one is it?

Like I said earlier, arguing using scritptures already puts you at a disadvantage, it's a battle you can't win! Your other argument about rights is just comical because Mark 10:6-9 already proved you wrong and so does canon law and most Islamic laws. In fact I'm not completely sure but I believe Hindu laws and Chinese laws also proves you wrong, so I'm guessing all you have to rely on is Western laws? I bet all through your analysis you never bothered to consider the world beyond Western influence.....Gotcha!

Imagine a red state like Alabama having to beg Biden not to neglect them. Are they not tax payers? Americans?

There's a reason Whites are where they are and

Africans are you listening...
They beg and lobby, not only red states but all states, what Biden will not do is deprive them of their rightful allocation according to the law. Anything extra must be negotiated. I don't know which tribes you are talking about specifically in the USA, caucasians nowadays are mostly people of European origins, they had no tribe once they got to the USA.

I am afraid you have let ordinary men like yourself decieve you with there lies. God never said it is a sin to withhold sex in marriage. If you had checked your Bible well, you would noted that regarding marriage, Jesus Christ declared clearly that you marriages are of this world and not of the Kingdom of God - Luke 20 vs 34 - 36 - meaning there are no special laws for man and woman in marriage, separate from the laws that exist between everyone else. undecided

A man and woman that is loyal and dependable? Look, until you understand that at its very core marriage exists as a contract agreement between a man and woman, no other being involved, you will continue to let other men delude you with lies that don't even fit well with your relationship. undecided

A man and woman are supposed to sit down as one and resolve issues between themselves in order to keep their marriage(business) going strong, not going around looking for rules that make no sense to their own situation to shackle themselves with. undecided

Anything is permissible grounds for divorce in most countries. If you decide you don't like your wife's face and want to divorce, the law has no right to stop you so stop pretending you honor some invisible clause by staying married and so you are to be seen as a god of some sort by your partner. No, you got into marriage for you and it is either you work on it and gain wisdom or you continue back out there looking for the nonexistent relationship shangri-la undecided
I'm not the religious type but you just embarrassed yourself by using scripture, christianity is not something you can pick or choose which parts favors you.
1 Corinthians 7:2-5
But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband. 3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

You are right that it is a contract and husband and wife should communicate and iron these issues out, I will never be against that, where you are wrong is that the contract does not grant each person rights/access to the other's body......Physically and spiritually, marriage gives you the right to lapoopoolalagrin grin grin

Are you married? Did you marry in a church or by an Islamic cleric? You should listen carefully to their sermon during the ceremony, be you man or woman, you have no right to deny your partner of sex, it is a sin and a danger to marriage itselfexcept when permitted like period, sickness or mantal instability. What I'm saying is that a man or woman that is loyal, dependable, does the basic things required of him or her has already earned that right to physical intimacy, whether you choose to honor that right is left between you and your creator! Also in some countries like the USA, it is a permissable ground for divorce and it is called emotional abuse.

she is not enjoying most of the sexual encounters , in short there is no orgasm for her i suspect.

You have to prioritise her enjoyment during the sex at the moment, you dont have to be rough during sex. Go slow and gently. Let her show you her pleasure points or help her discover them if she is a lady with little experience. Aim at giving her orgasm, it tampers with her psychology and need for sex. You will be surprised with her sex cravings and frequent request to have one.
You go tey for river with that approach in a marriage. Steady orgasm, cloud 9, cloud 100, all na bobo. As time goes on all that sh*t flies out the window, mix in kids, financial instability etc and you'll be lucky to get one good sex every 2 weeks or a month.

Drop the entitlement mentality and try to see things from her perspective

For women, sex is an emotional thing. How do you make her feel emotionally? As another comment said, try to make her feel good. Try to make her feel happy
Sex is one area where there is no need to activate anything. Do not deceive yourself, in marriage doing the basic things grants you that right and not the husband nor the wife has the right to take it away. You're threading a very dangerous path by using emotions as a condition for sex, this prima facie makes the woman almighty in a relationship.

Also can you define happiness? Feel good? Can you differentiate it from being needy? Being greedy? One woman's feel good could be another woman's starting point. Feel good for mama Nkechi in a one bedroom flat could be different to feel good for a diva living in a mansion on seaside. Ultimately no woman or man can be in the mood 100% of the time, if the difference in mood or sexual appetite is too vast then they might need to reconsider their nuptial agreement.

A somewhat educated person can't possible be this dense. After teaching you this I'm not wasting any more time with you.

1) Immigrant means someone who was BORN in another country then came to America, INCLUDING WHITES and all countries. Stop arguing nonsense.
But their children are also usually included as part of the immigrant community - this is what gives Nigerians the highest graduation rate.

2. If there were 2 Igbos in America and one of them graduates that's 50% graduation rate. If there were a million Hausas in America and 100,000 of them graduate, that is10% graduation rate. Igbos would have much higher graduation rate, though much more Hausas graduated.

3. [s]Per my bolded, the total number of graduates in America has nothing to do with the graduation rate of a group. From my above example, Igbo graduation rate will still be 50% wether there are a million or a billion graduates in America.[/s]

4. [s]Notice below, the most educated group refers to the group with highest percentage of masters and above, or professional degrees. The answer is inarguably Nigerians![/s]

This is an own goal.

It means you're the same as your friends by inference.

I have very responsible friends that have earned my respect and will gladly give my approval if anyone of them indicates interest in any of my sister's.

Your circle defines who you're.
Some people make good friends but terrible spouse. Your friend that you know is a workaholic, a brainiac and uncompromising would be a good fit for your sister that is needy and likes to nag a lot? How about your sister that is a religious prayer warrior hooking up with your friend that believes more in science and is known as fun, jovial type? It's primitive to think everyone in your circle would have the same personality as you or even worse that by associating with them you inherit their personalities grin grin
Jobs/VacanciesRe: What No Employer Will Tell You. I Learned This The Hard Way by abbey621(m): 3:23pm On Nov 18, 2021
What no employer will tell you:

1. You're never going to be wealthy just by working, it is best to have something outside of work that makes money for you(Shares, investments etc).
2. Even if you dedicate 20-40 years of your life to the company, the day you retire or resign, the company moves on like nothing happened.
3. You're only as valuable as your boss, once your boss hates you forget am! if he/she loves you then pray your boss never leaves the company grin grin
PoliticsRe: Your First And Second Choice For President In 2023 by abbey621(m): 2:47pm On Nov 18, 2021
Very unserious country and citizens....15 months to go and candidates have still not declared their ambitions. Everyone is playing guess game and chess match, citizens are dreaming and fantasizing while politicians are scheming. The usual noise makers will flood social media with noise while the decision making is concluded by the politicians without input from the masses......A dance of shame just like years before, we all know it's not about the candiate but the party so why una dey deceive una sef? If APC should choose broom as their candidate and PDP chooses Elephant, people wey go vote broom go vote broom and people wey go vote elephant go vote am, not because elephant is stronger or broom is very efficient but because of party.....Tell me how una wan be great with such mentality?

I honestly misjudged you. I thought I was debating with reasoning person. Or are you just trying to confuse ignorant people. It's hard for me to believe you don't know you are talking nonsense. So because there are more Hausa graduates in Nigeria than Ijaw graduates, that means Hausas graduate at a higher rate,?? How dumb! Liston well: T[b]HE RATE OF GRADUATION OF A GROUP HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THEIR TOTAL NUMBER OF GRADUATES IN THE COUNYRY!!! [/b]That I have to explain this to you tells me I shouldn't be debating with you - you are simply not up to par.

As for Mexicans, more misinformation. See below then run along
You should be a comedian, when we talk about immigrants; Europeans, Canadaians and any Caucasian based country is left out of the discussion, if you bothered to research you would know this. America is a nation of immigrants if whites are put into the discusssion then the greatest immigrants would be caucasians but you know this, you're just doing a magnificent job at playing stupid!

The bold part of your comment, na only you understand that one because data shows that there is a correlation. The higher the graduation rate, the higher the total number of graduates which also correlates to population. To think these factors are independent of one another is well................CLOWNISH! Your example is a good one, if Hausa people refuses to go to school and Ijaw people continues to educate and graduate then over time the gap would start to reduce and perhaps shift to having more Ijaw graduates than Hausa.

Coincidentally, this was what happened in America, in the early 1900s more White Americans/Europeans were college graduates than Asians or immigrated Africans, by the year 2000 the statistic flipped and by today, Asians are on top of the ladder in terms of higher education. Whatever argument or point you think you're making has only validated my point even more, I suggest you give it up and just move on because it ain't worth it my guy......This is an area in which you're outmatched!

I sense that you have limited knowledge of some of the things you argue about. I will just give you a little hint about politics and no more cos I do not have the time for back and forth. Not all monetary accruals to politicians are quantifiable in pay logs and neither are they seen in statute books but they are not illegal. That is why it remains very lucrative even in countries with the most stringent of laws.
Admittedly, the toll of corruption in Nigeria has taken our minds away from some of these facts.
LMAO......Here's your argument, " IF IT IS LEGAL, IT IS ALLOWED"......What you described is the loophole that allows corruption to remain unchecked, from the presidency spending billions on food alone to Legislative adding dubious spending to bills. By your calculation if it is legal, it is alright, let's forget about ethics or morals.

Of course, because you know you've lost the argument.

I thought I was discussing with a somewhat reasonable person. Didn't know I was dealing with a dummy. Data you presented is percentage of the TOTAL each group represents, dummy. Of course countries with more immigrants in US have more grads. The length you are going to win this argument, instead of just being honest and let the data speak. You deceptively post misleading tables and graphs hoping to fool people
THE GOOGLE INFO IS THE MOST UP TO DATE- it reflects currently available data TODAY!

[s]See the graph you deceptively posted below. It says it right there that if you isolate African immigrants (TALKLESS OF NIGERIANS!) they are more successful than Asians,[/s]
Were you dropped on your head as a child? grin grin grin Just look at the bold part of your comment, you just contradicted yourself! Since you know Nigeria does not have the most immigrants in the USA, why are you arguing bro about them being most educated? Oya slap yourself! Now let me break you again, majority of immigrants in the USA comes from Mexico, guess what? They are not the most educated not even close.....YOU SHOCK? Oya slap yourself again! This concludes this episode of arguing with a dummy, take the lessons learned and err no more!

I think he means most educated "Black" Immigrants, because when it comes to the African American Demographic in the US Nigerians are heads-up the most educated.

However when it comes to the most educated Immigrant group, I will give that hands down to the Indian's... infact only them single handedly tipped over the H1b visa system.
In just a few words, you've managed to make sense more than all his ramblings.....Thumbs up!

You are the one embarrassing yourself. Google is not a Nigerian so is not biased. Anybody reading this has access to Google. Just go and type in "Which immigrant group in usa has the highest level of education? Below is the result
You're funny, make sure when you type on Google you filter out any results before 2016 because the fresher the data the more reliable it is! Go to the article and look at the source, wikipedia still referenced the same census of 2000 followed by limited census conducted from 2008 to 2012. I am telling you from 2016 to now, Asians have surpassed every other ethnicity and you're here still rambling about old data....why? Are you hell bent on being naive or you're just clowning? I'm going to help you out, look at this 2018 article from Migration Policy Institute, it's not even close when you analyze country by country so I don't know what you're trying to accomplish:

These below say you are being economical with the truth
Did you even bother to read the article from ozy.com? It compared Nigerians in America to Americans in order to form a conclusion but they falter since 61% is still less than over 70% for Indians in America. Another one shows Nigerians in the USA subdivided into several subgroups which unfortunately is not the same as looking at country by country analysis or continent by continent analysis. Look at the fourth photo to get the gist of what I'm talking about. You can't compare Nigerians with Asians, you must compare Nigerians with Chinese or Indians, the proper comparison is Africans to Asians if we want to get technical.

Q: Are Nigerians the most educated group in the USA?
A: FALSE: Asians as a whole are the most educated, Indians as a sub group represents the highest number of bachelor's degree holders.

I think its your analysis that is capable of fallacies. We are not just talking of salaries but benefits in general. It is a fallacy to state that a Nigerian politician's benefit accrues from stolen funds. It is even more fallacy to state that Professors in America are as depraved as their Nigerian counterparts.
What do you tag cost of living? If you do not differentiate it from quality of living, that's another fallacy.
Mine is even a perfect logic as corroborated by many other opinions on this thread and the man directly below me: Nigerians are the most educated community in the US. US rewards education. Nigerians are very successful in the US. - Logic devoid of fallacy.
You managed to spew more opinions rather than facts, Asians are the most educated ethnic group in the USA, Nigerians are not even in the top 5 when we analyze beyond ethnicity and into details like country by country. Furthermore, what is the salary of local government chairman, state assembly rep or councillor? What is their transportation, food and other allowances? None of these benefits would make them earn above 15 million Naira per year, so unless you can explain how such pioliticians can afford to build mansions worth 50 million or more, afford Range Rover/G-wagon worth over 30 million and still spend on their famiy, if you've got a valid explanation that does not involve stealing or corruption please let us hear it, otherwise I maintain my stance.

Finally nowhere did I state that professors in America are as depraved as those in Nigeria, read slowly and comprehend, I simply highlighted that they are facing the same issues salary wise as you alluded on your post. They are not paid as handsomely as business executives, politicians or even ordinary managers at a Fortune 500 company. If you have contrary facts to disprove this please state it because so far your perfect logic is full of gaping holes grin grin

System rewards education. Hard work is relative.
Professor in Nigeria earns less than a thousand dollars while Illiterate politician can buy the country.
You've thrown two fallacies together.....$1000 is 500k Naira, what is the cost of living in Nigeria that 500k Naira per month is considered is considered poor salary? Even abroad, educators are one of the lowest paid professionals in the job market, a doctor can make over 400k dollars a year but a professor won't even smell 150k at most schools. Next, when you say politicians hope you checked their official salaries, it is worse than that of most professors but guess what they steal and cheat! Can your professors do the same? It is the same for any society, if you're willing to steal and cheat, you'll either have way more morney than the hardworking citizen or end up in jail poor and broken.....Let's not compare apples with oranges!
