I don't know. It really depends on the situation. My wife doesn't need to be a professional home police or babysitter either.

lmao the nba is unpredictable. the games must be played.

the east is stacked. santonio and maybe the denver thuggets are the only two teams i see posing a threat to the lakers.
the boys with the whistle also have a say in how a lotta games swing. The coming season should be exciting.

Hopefully the LaLa will repeat! Wade needs to polish his recruitment skills

I can see where you're going with that. Drawing a parallel between the two is far-fetched and absurd - my opinion. The form of coercion you just mentioned takes place all the time among parents and their children. You know there are always times as a kid you don't want to do something but your parents force you to. If an american male child says "whassup fool" to his father while greeting him, I would expect him to rebuke the child and deal with him severally. Even if he doesn't discipline him, it's within his obligation as a parent to show him a "proper" more-polite way of greeting - maybe a "hi dad, hello dad," something like that. For the Yoruba people asking you to prostrate or kneel down is how that respect is shown to those who are your elders.

The point is that as a a grown ass adult, you would get to decide who/not to prostrate or get on your knees to greet. If you don't feel like it's a custom you want to continue then stop it. Just know that those elders will have a bad image of you in their minds. As long as you don't care then it doesn't matter. Your stroke, your choice.

Oh well, what will you say of female circumcision? Practise it, because it's part of our culture?
Ndipe, I don't see the bridge that connects female circumcision to prostrating.  The former is a criminalistic action; a heinous crime that should be outdated.  The latter is simply a way of saluting your elders.   One is an involuntary bloodshed and is usually done without your consent, while the other is voluntary, requires no bloodshed or forceful action.  If you choose not to prostrate you choose to walk away without a bride, simple as that.  We don't always have to feed our culture to the dogs in favor of the white man's overglorified approach to life.

Ndipe, I see nothing wrong with prostrating. If you don't want to do it then don't marry into the culture.

very direct advise.
johnnygan:
I'm not gonna criticise friendship wit an ex but i would like u to learn from my experience.
For almost 2yrs my ex broke up wit me on the basis of testing other waters but i was not told about that thou. Apart from the pains of breakup, she continued to land me in pains.
For example, she could do almost anything and got away wit it. Maybe that shit happens cuz i'm still single ever since then.  We might decide not to date any other on the basis of ex - shit. Thats another pain entirely. Belive me, love bond is very strong. I know u still feel something for him, and thats why he is still yo friend within the time frame. Don't get it twisted here, you are talking about months and i talked bout years. Yours was 4-2months. Mine was 2yrs and friendship of pain continued since then. Once u loved, its hard to let go but we differ as humans thou. Pls kick him away finally boo. Don't let him do any shit and get away wit it. You will not see him as your ex but a guy u once loved. So he will do shits and walk away clean and nice leavin u downcast. Let me tell u one more funny shit that happened. While our friendship continued, i remained a good pal to her elder brother. When my big brother arrived from uk, he gave me a very expensive mp3 player. Its a tech, anyone would die for. Guess wat, my ex borrowed it and misplaced it. Till date, she adds insult to injuries wit her insults today, sorry 2morrow. But the relationship Btw me and my big bro crashed rapidly on the basis of carelessness.
He's gone back to uk but hardly calls me. I know it will pass but i'm only giving an example here boo.
An ex feel they could always eat their cake and have it. Let yo ex know that he drank his juice and there's none left in the cup.
Not just for u honey, u re also doing it for all ladies out there.

Cut him off joh. It's not healthy. I think you should give yourself enough time to get over him before even trying to salvage any kind of friendship with him.
If you continue with the friendship, the cloud of confusing emotions will continue looming over your head, it would be harder for you to have strong feelings for someone else, it would be easy to have sex with him, etc
