I heard this being discussed one time in a thread in naiaraland last year and always wanted to ask, especially since yoruba's now have their own movie awards now which started this year: http://dailytimes.com.ng/article/yoruba-movie-academy-awards-debuts

what are your thoughts?, I feel to me it is cute and nice

tchigyoke: Genevieve Nnaji 33 years old Dates 49 year Hollywood actor, Isaiah Washington. Genevieve and Isaiah are most times sighted together even leaving location of "Dr Bello" movie still being shot in Nigeria.Do you think the relationship would launch our own Genny into Hollywood soon? http://glazethrill.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=274:genevieve-nnaji-dates-isaiah-washington&catid=1:celebrity-gossip&Itemid=110

OMG, isn't Isiah Washington married if I am not mistaken

NRI PRIEST: If you are Igbo and can speak Yoruba fluently the girl and her parents will accept you in a heart beat and I am speaking from core experiences!!

not necessarily but I am not disputing what you are saying though

Emodeee: I've come to realise that there are so many tribes in nigeria..i'm 4rm yoruba land..buh i luv d igbos.dere language.how i wish i can speak there language..what abt u?

Yoruba, but I have no problem with igbo's & hausa'a though

mimifonwon:
well i just have seen more of the igbo woman, yoruba man pairing than yoruba woman, igbo man pairing, not to say it doesnt happen. also I was just curious. I felt considering you NLrs like to bring everything down to igbo vs yoruba, i wanted to open up a discussion, so i can learn why the data is more skewed to more igbo women marrying yoruba men than yoruba women marrying igbo men( which does happen).

I think because most nigerians don't care that why there is no clear cut data on that, if a nigerian will get paid for it then maybe you will see it full swing but besides that you may never really see a clear cut one. Why does it bother you though?

mimifonwon: I have been using this naira land as a source in how tribalistic we as a nation are, and though we intermarry, the ideology of one culture or tribe supremacy over the other is heavily appearant whether we show it or not. Do we fault our parents or our society. I know i grew up in a mixed tribe family where we were taught we should respect everyones culture, but without knowing it, there have been instances my father have been bias and sometimes outright tribalistic towards my mother and she also to him. It doesnt mean he doesnt love her, but in a way i think my siblings and i picked it up. My brothers mostly identify with being yoruba, but my sisters and i who were closer to my maternal cousins identify with both, and sometimes more with igbo. So if this can happen in a family with two educated parents who love and adore eachother, what is to say its not worst in a single tribe family. Coming to this forum have opened my eyes to the hate( whether joking or not) that we have for eachother's tribe. I used to believe that our generation would have nurse and hopefully heal the wounds of the past that our parents kept open, but i now see that the majority of us keep picking at the wounds and letting decay even faster than it should. I went on a date with a yoruba boy from ghana who parents are from ekiti. When I introduced myself i just said you can call me funmi. And we were cool, till we got to talking and we became more interested in eachother. Fastforward 3 months later, my mom told me to invite him to dinner cause she wanted to meet him. When he met my mom, first thing he said was-is your mom igbo or mixed, i was like, she is igbo and the guy then turned to me and says so that means you are half igbo. So i answer this fool yes. He starts laughing saying " why this again, what is with me and igbo girls." I was confused and i asked him what he meant and he said he mostly find himself attracted to igbo girls, but i told him i was half, not full, but he said his parents will not see it that way, that i act like a typical igbo girl. I didnt know whether to be affronted or accepting of the compliment. So he tells me that his parents disowned his middle brother because he refused to marry the yoruba girl they found for him, but rather fell for an igbo gal, and without his parents blessings asked his uncles in the uk to follow him to marry the girl. Its been 5 years now and his parents are yet to forgive or concede. So after his explanation that he doesnt want to lose his inheritance like his brother did, that when i meet his parents that i have to lie and say am full yoruba. I said lai lai, that one no go happen. So i dumped his tribalistic butt. emi omo nkechi, omo igbo ati omo ijebu,A kì í gbọ́n tó Báyìí-ni-ngó-ṣe-ǹkan-àn-mi - never, oluwafunmilayo chinazaekpere adebisi, thats my name, and if any man doesnt like it, go to river niger and drown ya selves, and if you need help ill help finish ya stupid life for you. I told this story to show how tribalistic he was being, though he claimed his parents were the ones that were. Why should my tribal heritage matter. I know the yoruba culture, speak the language, know my village and respect my family's honor. It made me wonder whether tribalism is metastasizing even more than when my parents were young.And Is it true that Yoruba men marry more igbo girls, that igbos marrying yoruba girls?.

I can tell you are not tribalistic but your thread will be the breading ground for a tribal thread just to warn you. First of all majority of Yoruba men marry yoruba females but a significant amount are marrying igbo girls but it is not vice versa when it comes Yoruba females. Yoruba females and igbo men majority of time don't click(although I have witnessed two couples of that demographic), if a Yoruba female marrys out it would most likely be hausa if she is muslim or edo. I have noticed eastern Nigerian tribes easily marry amongst each other easily, plus their are always other tribes to marry into it is not by force for you to marry yoruba but my question for you is why does it concern you why it is not vice versa with Yoruba females?

afolayangs: tnx poster for posting. God bless

vinderbilt: This is awesome news. Nollywood is going Global!!!

[b]"Hollywood is a place so intoxicating, some will take a pay cut just to stay.

David Beckham joined the Los Angeles Galaxy with much fanfare and a massive contract, but those days are long gone. Becks has taken a massive 39 percent salary cut from $4.1 million to $2.5 million to remain in Southern California.

Beckham, 37, happily accepted the massive $1.6 million earnings reduction, particularly to keep wife Victoria happy, according to Cindy Adams of the New York Post.

Above all else, the woman who became famous as Posh Spice enjoys living the Los Angeles lifestyle and hanging with such celebrity comrades as neighbor Tom Cruise.

In addition, Victoria Beckham, 38, is happy with her California business endeavors.

By the way, France's Thierry Henry of the New York Red Bulls replaced David Beckham as Major League Soccer's highest compensated foreign player at $5.6 million per year. Other players that now make more than Beckham: New York's Rafa Marquez ($4.5 million) and Beckham's teammate Robbie Keane ($3.4 million)."[/b]

I am not saying Nigeria is perfect because we are far from it but as much as they say south africa is more advance then any African country socially & economically(which is understandable to a extent) but socially I don't know, after these stories I hear from that country.

[quote author=tpia@]^^true, but if even blacks are ending up with white persons, why wouldnt biracials do the same?[/quote]True, but those blacks are few, know better and don't represent the majority any way. I am not saying biracials can't marry white but who their parents are, particularly their mother and to a extent where they were raised, majority of the times determines what culture they will end up living as & who they will end up with. Until blacks get that through their head, this ridiculous debate will always come up.
