SirShymex:
The term "Nigerian-born" is correct - since he was born Nigerian (though in the UK) cos his dad was Nigerian. And he has been to Nigeria a few times.
Nope. Nigerian-born means born in Nigeria, just like Hugo Weaving, who is a Nigerian-born Australian/British actor, although in his case he didn't claim Nigerian citizenship. Chuka is obviously entitled to Nigerian citizenship since his father was a Nigerian citizen, and is also entitled to Irish citizenship through his mother (whose father was coincidentally an Irish-born British citizen).

Sidebar for those who don't know: Ireland is not part of the UK. Great Britain is England, Scotland & Wales. The UK is Great Britain & Northern Ireland. The term 'British' applies to those from the UK & its territories.

Gotta love the FP saying Chuka is Nigerian-born, he's certainly of Nigerian descent (from his father), but he was born in London. I don't think the guy has ever set foot in Nigeria...

Well, it was implied with your yawning, I assumed you hadn't had your beauty sleep at the time. I'm sorry my thread making skills are abysmal. Unfortunately, I don't excel at making lists & telling folks they should be a certain way. That seems to be what all the Romance FP posts are always going on about.

marvels agent carter reviews please smiley smiley smiley....i dont want to waste my time. undecided
I personally enjoyed it, Peggy Carter kicks butt. Seriously, her brand of butt whooping is brutal - she beat one dude with a stapler. She gets s*** done, even though her boss & most of the guys at her place of work see her as a defenceless woman, and as Captain America's grieving ex-girlfriend. The first three episodes have been good so far, this season will only last for 8 episodes. The season arc is about her clearing Howard Stark's name and trying to solve the mysterious big bad of the season.

Are you awake now?

fattybombom:
I didn't understand the question, analysis, and quotations displayed by the op, but let me take my position first, because I smell FP.
Fair enough, sometimes I get carried away, forgetting that nobody can see the conversation I'm having in my head. I really doubt this will make FP.

Anywho, I shall try to explain slowly. From the charts, it would appear that guys, or to be precise those guys, seem to find young women (in this case 20-23 year olds) attractive, regardless of their own age. In other words, those guys (aged 20-50) all found 20-23 year old women the most attractive.

The quote from the film, simply showed that the character - a man in his early twenties, who was dating high school girls - would continue to date high school girls as he grew older.

petra22:
I don't this is applicable to Nigerian men tho undecided
True, it would seem that way, but if you look at our past, you would find a pattern. Both my grandfathers had more than one wife. My maternal grandfather had 4 & my paternal one had 3, each subsequent wife was younger than the previous one. In fact, the youngest one from my paternal grandfather might be a few years older than his first born.

K ,but don't to takke life too seriously.
I never said I was up at night stressed about it, I simply asked a question, since the pattern seems to be rather obvious.
Romance › Why Are Some Men Fascinated By Youth? by cao(op):
So the day before yesterday, this (the attached pictures, quote and link) appeared on my Tumblr dash.

Charts from OKCupid, showing how straight women and men rate each other based on ages. For women, the men they find most attractive are roughly their own age. For men, the women they find most attractive are roughly the same age - 20 to 23 - regardless of the age of the man.
Link: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/christian-rudder-dataclysm-okcupid/

Then, I remembered the quote made by Matthew McConaughey's character David Wooderson, from the film Dazed & Confused, about high school girls:
That's what I like about these high school girls; I get older, they stay the same age.
So it would appear that if you're a woman over 22 looking for a man, then you shouldn't really bother with online dating, since the odds are already stacked against you. You always notice a pattern with some rich men, especially when they reach the cliched midlife crisis, where the wife is replaced with a newer and younger model (pun not intended, but it still works either way).

Of course, it's not only rich men, with the attached charts, it would seem that it's a general consensus. Of course, love can be a funny thing - the heart wants what the heart wants, but it would appear that some folks think with their eyes first.


So my question is, why are some men fascinated by youth?

The actress that plays Shaw, Sarah Shahi, is pregnant, so she asked to be written out. It looks like the creators are trying to give her some leeway to return, by not actually showing Shaw's death.

To be honest after Carter's death, I kinda hope they make it permanent, even though I'm a fan of Shaw. I'm not sure I could handle the whole let's look for her phase, just get Root to go HAM on Samaritan & its crew. I'd watch that with some popcorn & M&Ms, you know it would be awesome... I know we keep hoping for Fusco's death, but they want the loss to really hurt & the clueless one just doesn't cut it.

Oh well, I guess I'm grateful for Carter's death, it gave us Cookie Lyon (Taraji P. Henson's character on Empire).
Gaming › PSN Maintenance by cao(mod):
Sony have announced that PSN will be down for maintenance on Thursday the 15th between 5pm to 9pm GMT, that's 6pm to 10pm Nigerian time. But, in good Sony efficiency, it's currently happening right this instant. By the way, this is the time for PSN EU, it's a bit of a twattish move, but hey they gave us a heads up this time, but still kinda screwed it by starting almost 2 days early.

EDIT: For PSN US, it's the same day, but the times are 9am PT, 12pm ET. It will last for four hours. Of course, the Americans get the reasonable time.

You do know, that read more linking to your site, will probably make folks not want to read it...right? Now you could have sourced your site, while still providing the necessary information. Instead of making us feel like we're watching an endless Nollywood film - baiting us with an ending by giving us unnecessary sequels.
