mekaboy: Lol, that's one way to see it. So what's the essence of the bride price, or is urs going to be free?

You are free to believe in whatever you believe in. Bride price is far lower than the "actual price". Is it the bride price that makes the woman a wife? Then what makes the man a husband? You need to stop placing price tags on women.

If it were to be a mere transaction, then it would have been an arms length transaction. No man on earth can place a price on me...he can't even afford it. The bride price is just a traditional symbol. It is even rejected in some places. Does that make the woman a free commodity?

ogugua88: [size=13pt]When will people grow up and start appreciating the human body as a form of art and stop looking at it as "posing half unclad"?

I think it's a lovely photo.[/size]

It has nothing to do with growing up. Opinions differ, respect that. People see things differently, even colours.

Lol @ the body as a form of art. The human body has more value than a mere piece of art. Like i said, opinions differ. Not everyone of us can pose unclad or half-unclad. Don't expect all of us to follow your cause.

@adegbite, you still remain my best Tinsel star, after "salewa". Unclad, semi-unclad or demi-semi-unclad, na you know. You have a great body...chei! But i don't like this photo.

mekaboy: Has your bride price been paid? Lol, when money leaves the hand of someone in exchange of something else, is it not a business transaction?

Dude, i know what a business transaction is. Your marriage might be a BUSINESS TRANSACTION but mine is definitely not going to be. No woman is a commodity that needs to be bought, sold or transferred at a mere price or value. We are humans...priceless! The earlier you guys get that into your thick skulls, the better for the human race. Gosh!

Auction!

This girl might not even know she's been offered for sale on a public forum. Na wa o.

mekaboy: Marriage is also a business transaction, whereby a man purchasing a woman from her parents at a fee.

The woman becomes both his sexual partner and source of his offspring.

The man makes a refundable deposit to the parents of the girl, which will be refunded if the man decide the partnership is over.

Oh goodness!
We still have people that think like this? Omg!
What a world we live in. Omg! For real?
Omg!

Ok

OP, be honest. I've seen that guy before...and with your username, i suspect it's you. Besides, your "little" cousin wants to date a man that looks like my neighbour's daddy? Yeah right. It's either your so-called cousin is too immature to make decisions on her own, or you are too childish to open a thread like this.

I keep saying it, some people don't need the consent of their parents when they want to get married, they come to nairaland for us to seal and stamp their relationships. Kids!

Telema? Girl, what on earth is wrong with you?

Phame: hmmmmmmmm........
What was his reaction when u broke up wth him and why did u break up with him?...o'cos i knw him to be a 'staunch lover' who carries ur name all-over the place(nl). If not for anything, he'l be remembered for making u popular on nl.

Hi caseless

Who dash you new moniker? Hehehehe. Ya ya makaranta? This your siggy ehn...lol.

Well, it's your choice. Just be careful and don't fall into the hands of desperate girls. They don't mind kissing your feet. You'll know their true colours after marriage.
