Dem still dey squat take pishure for 2016 ni'?

Well, this doesn't look to me like charity donation at all. Seem like a cheap excuse to pay for the services of commercial s*x workers.

At least 10 Japanese porn actresses are expected to participate in a day-long "breast-squeeze" event as part of an Aids awareness programme. The entire show will be broadcast live on an adult television channel. The annual charity event, roughly translating into "Boob Aid", has been taking place for the past 11 years.

Those who would like to squeeze will donate for an Aids charity organisation, but the actresses have asked the squeezers to be a bit gentle.
"I'm really looking forward to lots of people handling my boobs. But I would be very happy if you would please be delicate," Rina Serina, one of the actresses who have volunteered to take part in the event, told the Tokyo Sports daily, reported the AFP. Others are also equally enthusiastic about the upcoming programme over the weekend. "It's for charity. Squeeze them, donate money -- let's be happy," said the 21-year old adult movie actress Iku Sakuragi.

The programme is being supported by the Japan Foundation for Aids Prevention. During earlier occasions, rules such as sterilisation of hands before the squeeze and only two squeezes per head were implemented. This year's event is likely to follow similar guidelines.

Wonders shall never end!

My best response yet. Thanks dear...

Nkemsplendid:
Men and women are wired differently. When someone shouts 'BABY"! the man remembers late nights, poor sleep, costly diapers and worst of all, intimidating school fees. The woman on the other hands knows these truths in the recesses of her mind, but what comes to her immediately is visions of soft feet, curly hair, and a heavenly smile and she immediately wants more. Pragmatism will have to meet somewhere with Idealism when making those decisions about family size. as for the brother wondering why we forget all the stress of pregnancy and labor, study Oxytocin, a fantastic substance God made that does plenty, including causing memory loss! My husband and I both come from large families and while i loved it, he resented it. We've got 4 kids now, A girl & 3 Boys. Anything else will be stretching my luck and I don't want my kids having a surly Dad!

Thanks for all your objective responses. Some learning has taken place.

A few responses were consistent with my personal thoughts too whilst others were completely different in the perspective they highlighted. And that was exactly what I was hoping for.

From the comment thread, I did realised that I similar topic was on front page lately. I didn't see that. Sorry, if this feels like clogging your space.

Thanks again.

Enjoy and happy sallah

This is a question that have been bothering me: why do women want more kids? In almost all the young families I know, when the man wants two or at most three children; his wife wants four or more. There are loads of variation to this scenario but in almost all cases, the wife wants more kids than the husband. And my question is why? Why that desire for a larger family in terms of no of children by the female folks.

I simply do not understand.

Infact, it has become a common joke when a man says; 'we have three kids and we are done'. Wise folks will always remind such men not to 'count their eggs before they are hatched' as wify is likely to add a few more.

My question is not about whether a small family is better than a large one or vice versa. As far as I'm concern, couples should have the number of children they believe they are emotionally and financially equipped to take care of.

However, my concern is that I do not UNDERSTAND the desire in women for a larger barn. My assumption is that women undergo greater inconvenience to conceive and bear a child. And I expected that inconvenience of pregnancy, labor pain, delivery, nursing and baby sitting to be a major deterrent to multiple repetition. But it is obviously not the case - hugely surprising!

Please what is/are the motivation(s)?

I would like everyone, particularly married women, in this forum to contribute their honest opinion here. It is just for my education.

Thanks all.

If you are a christian like you said, I sure you would have seen/heard the bible passage where Jesus alluded to the fact that if you look at a person lustfully it equates to sexual immorality... You would have also read/heard the admonition; 'flee from every appearance of evil...'

Now to your question; Is it safe/right bla bla bla? I'm guessing you already know the answer.

And for you to post this on NL knowing your boyfriend or somebody that knows both of you is likely to see it and connect it to your username (and ultimately to you) gives the impression that you do not care to break up with you boyfriend and formalize your relation with bestie. I just hope bestie is prepared to go all the way with you.

Finally, if you completed NYSC in 2006, say you were 22-26 years old then, you will be about 30-34 years now, so you should know what you want out of life and relationship. Please stop playing pranks!

nsk 1st son: i understood ur post

You probably did but you clearly did not understand the import of your own comment. And as you can see, that view is also shared by another users.

Project400: If they both graduated with 3rd class results, Pass, or issued certificates of attendance, then we might understand. But if the reverse is the case, then I think you have a point.

The university has been designed with a grading system such that students are graded based on their performance.

A student with a 1.5 CGPA may likely not write to your expectation.

Guy, a graduate with a pass class might not be able to solve 'differential equation' or do an analysis of 'Marx class struggle' but should be able to write an application letter. The point I'm making is that to obtain a tertiary school certification, you should be made (forced, if need be) to attain a minimum standard of enlightenment. Otherwise, you should just be asked to leave or given an 'acknowledge of attempt' if there is such a thing.

nsk 1st Son:

You clearly do not know the meaning of what you wrote. While it could be argued that the ladies deserve to be castigated even in public but my article did not mention their names or department (information that I have but refrained from divulging). I did not even state the name of the school. I was just using a personal experience to point to a serious rot in our educational system. I still doubt if you will understand.

I went to obtain my transcript yesterday (08-01-2014) and while I was being tossed from one office to another, a lady excused me. She showed me an application letter to review and comment on before she submit. The letter was an apology to put it mildly. But that is just a small part of the story.

I later learnt that she was assisting her friend to apply for a replacement of her success letter. Apparently, the original success letter was stolen following an armed robbery incident during her NYSC bla bla bla and as such she wanted the school to provide her with a replacement.

As I said earlier, the letter 'under review' was embarrassingly shameful and highly unbecoming of a 'so-called' university graduate. For starters, the entire letter was one continuous sentence - no comma, no fullstop, no paragraph, no structure. She went further to plead with me to assist them. She told me that her friend had written an initial application but the receiving officer (a non-academic staff) rejected it saying the initial letter was below secondary school students' level. They were not even ashamed to tell me that a non-academic staff rejected their letter. I demanded to see the initial letter and it was indeed far more appalling. Therefore, the letter 'under review' was a second attempt following a combined effort of both ladies.

I hesitated to assist but after some soulful pleading, my 'church-mind' got the better of me and I eventually obliged them but not without giving them a piece of my mind. I refraining from printing what I said to them.

But this got me really thinking. Here are TWO graduates, both already through with NYSC and probably in the labour market or already gainfully employed, yet THEIR combined effort could not produce a passable application letter. I mean, shouldn't our educational system have been designed such that there would be a minimum standard that students MUST attain before they are issued with a certification?

Who is to be blamed?

Afrowhatever is F.A.T, U.G.L.Y AND S.T.U.P.I.D, how else is she gonna grab the spotlight in a world where FIGURE, BEAUTY and BRAINS is all that counts

If it is ok with your spouse, eat out as often as you can. Saves you the inconvenience of cooking/cleaning/washing once in a while.
Might not be as cost effective as home food but again, you both work and something must give.

You live in the South West and your are worried that your husband does not want you to speak your Yoruba to your son. Is this a problem? You even said your husband speaks Yoruba. How did he learn it? Was it his mom (your mother-in-law) that taught him?

Your son will learn Yoruba naturally - from school, playground, market, church etc. So why bother with this. I have a couple a cousins in Lagos - both parents are Igbos, but the kids (my cousins) speak Yoruba flauntingly.

I do not know what your believe system is but Christianity insist on wife submission to husband...

GSKing:
lai lai, you must tell me yours first before I post my age on nl, jeeezzz!
Although, I've given enough clue for people to perfectly tell my age here... chaaiii, I've been careless in my previous posts o

You should be 15 - 17 in 2004. I guess you are between 24 & 26 now

Ozo_emeka and babyosis, I do not think you guys ought to argue or quarrel. You both bring valuable information to the table. America, like most nations would have it good and bad. However, compared to most nations, America provides young immigrants, a better pathway to self sufficiency.

Like ozo said; As a young person moving to the United States, will you suffer racism? Maybe yes. Will you be ridiculed, albeit subtly, for your accent? Yes. You might even be mistreated because of your name. However, if you are focused, confident and you work hard, you will rise above all of those.

Like babyosis said; in the face of theses challenges, you can still succeed in America. But the first question you want to ask yourself is; have I exhausted all my options back home in Nigeria? You see, if you put the same amount of energy you require to succeed in America back here in Nigeria, you might still succeed. However, if you have made up your mind that it most be overseas or nothing, here are some options available to you:

Do not go to the united state with a visiting visa and then decide to stay longer than your visa validity and proceed to work. That is criminal. And while you might not be caught, you put yourself in a very difficult position. Employees will exploit you and you might eventually end up in a terrible relationship because you want a green card. You would have completely ruined your life before you know it. You will not understand me if you are under 25 years but you will definitely understand when you are 42 years, suffering a failed marriage, lost all your life savings and you still can't visit your own kids.

I will advice only those who already have a university degree to proceed. Get in touch with a school (you can do that through their website), obtain an admission with the school and then with your university admission and evidence of payment of fees, you will likely be given a student visa. If you want to do a higher degree, there are usually some opportunities to work part time and study. It will make your stay for the period of study legitimate and you can work as lab attendant, lecturer assistant, security, etc in your school or get a part time work outside your school. I will pause here and ask again, what stops anyone from doing the same in Nigerian universities? Anyways, lets assume you insist on America. Then if you study hard and maintain a good grade, you will be eligible for some scholarship (this is not automatic). Most scholarships will only reduce your tuition cost, they will usually not eliminate it completely.

Seek opportunities for internship while you study, it is a fair way to increase your chances of getting a job. Also seek job opportunities back home in Nigeria. Most multi nationals in Nigeria like to hire Nigerians with foreign degree.

Try and build a great relationship with some of your professors so that at the end of your masters, if you still do not have a job, they can offer you a phd placement under their tutelage and you will usually get paid some allowance as a research student. Even if you are not good at building relationships, just study hard and earn good grades, at the end of your masters, some professors will definitely offer phd placement.

In all like babyosis said, if Vietnamese and Chinese that can't even speak English can make it in the US, why not Nigerians?

My ten cent...

It would have been easy, if it is not subtly annoying, to put together an essay on why you love and desire to marry anyone.

However, I think (my opinion) that it would have been more respectable for the man to hold a discussion with his prospective son-in-law and from such parley, he should be able to adduce why the young man wants to marry his daughter.

He can even put the question directly and hear the young man speak, in which case, the prospective son-in-law would be speaking directly from the heart which would most likely amount to the truth.

The path of writing an essay affords the prospective son-in-law the opportunity to consult with numerous experts for instance. he will eventually come up with a really great diatribe which might be completely inconsistent with his innermost feelings, thereby defeating the whole purpose.

That said, I would have still written the essay if that is what my father-in-law wants, but before the drama completely elapse, he will know that I felt kinda insulted by his request. Yes, he will.

Why don't you just say birthday bash, particularly if you do not know how old Mike is?

Here is also a perspective to consider:

The value of a product or service and consequently how much society will be willing to pay for it, is dependent on a combination of these three - demand, supply (& scarcity). In fact, the monetary value of a product has little or nothing to do with the intrinsic value/worth of that product/service. If the demand is high and the product/service is scarce, society will pay a higher premium for it. If it is abundant or supplied in great quantities, society will pay less for it.

Let me give an instance, Water is one of the most important substances on earth - no human can live for more than three days without water and in fact, scientist agree that life thrived on earth as opposed to other planets simply because of the availability of water. On the contrary, Gold can not be said to hold the key to humanity thriving. In fact, a man can live for 90 years or more without direct use or any contact with Gold. Yet, we pay more for an ounce of Gold compared to water.

The key is that though water is so important, it can be found in abundance in most part of the world, whereas Gold is very scarce making its supply limited and its demand 'apparently' high.

Back to sports men and other professions like Lawyers and Doctors. At any one time, there is only a handful of individuals who have been discovered and so trained to play as well as Messi. The implication is that out of 7 million humans on earth, there is only one Messi. Now think about it, one in seven million. That is monumental scarcity! Whereas, in almost every extended family, you will almost certainly find a Medical Doctor.

Again, also realize that not every footballer earn such super duper pay. There are footballers in professional football (even in England) who earn less than 500 pounds a week - See Ben Davies of Swansea but unfortunately only the big earners make the headline. Even if you type 'lowest paid footballer in EPL' into Google search, you will mostly find entries for 'highest paid footballers'

However, the question you raised is an important question. When you are making a career choice or thinking about making money. What should you expend your energy on. Think about demand, supply and scarcity

One of the odder stories in recent days comes from Senegal where a referee stopped a game to break his Ramadan fast.

The game between Casa Sport and Yeggo was half-an-hour old when referee Ousseynou Gueye suspended play so his officials could have a drink and eat on the side of the pitch. Despite being heckled by spectators, Gueye finished his snack before resuming.

"Legally, it is not possible to stop a match to break the fast," he said afterwards. "But you can enjoy a break in the game to meet a health need. The human body needs water."

supaeagles: @delors... biodup may not have had access to the same quality education many of have been fortunate to have #justsaying

@biodup : btw, FYI, highlighted part should be "are not worth". More importantly, please note:
1) The term "Aboki" is derogatory
2) making such generalizations about an ethnic society / people based on the actions of a few is very incorrect.

The man (laughing like a hyena in public directly at people's misfortunes) should be arrested. His actions can surely be interpreted as inciting public disturbance by laughing at the victims when they have just gone through a harrowing experience.

About the only reasonable comment on this thread. Thanks for your maturity

I hope the 'planker' ll be charged for attempted first degree murder?
Even if he gets off some serious jail term, he be made to pay very painful compensation.
Society should not condone this type of barbarism irrespective of the perpetuators.
This is debased, crazy, insane, wicked, terrible. DAMN

This is when we should score a goal
