Literature / Re: We Need To Write And Publish More Books In Nigeria by chinani(f): 7:58pm On Aug 23, 2006 |
White House aides say President George W Bush has read 60 books so far this year.*eye roll* The man couldn't read a comic strip. If he reads so much why can't he speak English like a literate man? KikiDixy:Great point. Co-signed. |
Family / Re: Polygamy: Do Women Really Find It Acceptable? by chinani(f): 7:54pm On Aug 23, 2006 |
LoverBwoy:Because the women entering into these relationships are not the "new age ladies". LoverBwoy:I think the women shouting "never" mean never. |

If so, can someone explain the underlying reason that would prompt a wealthy woman to seek a spouse for her husband, even when they exist a strong matrimonial bond between these two parties?Well it is fiction. . . |

Celebrities / Re: Girls: Would You Sleep With A Star That You Love So Much If He's Alone With You? by chinani(f): 5:26am On Aug 23, 2006 |
I didn't see the humor. I found it offensive. Next time I'll write: "Not funny. Offensive." And leave it at that. |
Romance / Re: Two People In Love May Not Be Fit For Marriage? by chinani(f): 5:23am On Aug 23, 2006 |
dearie:Absolutely true! People change and if the people in love have not "Come into themselves" if they are not very mature 25-28 then after couple of years of marriage they may not be as compatible & problems will develop. dearie:Love, very much so. But also the ability to complement each other, to be friends! To settle disputes well (w/o hurting feelings). To be honest! To be vulnerable!!! |
Career / Re: Working As A Personal Assistant by chinani(f): 5:19am On Aug 23, 2006 |
It's iire, just as long as he knows where the limits are. I mean a lady has to take precautions as to not put herself in any compromising positions. If the dude starts to think that you're his girlfriend or something, walk. |

must_a_far:Nawaooo! You & Mocha are cynical fcuks! I guess celebs never rape anyone. B/c you (men) think any women would Bleep them I guess any woman would Bleep them. As long as men think it is or isn't possible then I guess it must be so. You get a vagina, you get penetrated, you "cry rape" since that's what women do and then you can come talk some more shiit to me. Until then shut up! You just might hear some of your sisters "cry rape". . .or are they not women too? |

Family / Re: Nigeria Law For Divorce by chinani(f): 4:29am On Aug 22, 2006 |
BlackMamba:Naw, if that was true, do you think half the senators & governors would still have wives? Think about who writes these laws. . .think about how many Nigerian couples bear lengthy separations for a multitude of reasons. How you are Hot A? |

olunifemi:I meant that I'd do this slowly over several weeks but uh yea it's not really a realistic game plan. On the realer side, I'd just do what was best for me. |

gigitte:Co-signed! And I mean that in a big way. We must teach men while they are still our sons. Myself, I pray for girls (at the appropriate time of course!) but if I get boys I'll raise them the right way, not so that I can be proud of them but so they can be proud of themselves. |
Family / Re: Nigeria Law For Divorce by chinani(f): 10:19pm On Aug 20, 2006 |
gigitte:LOL. ok, I rescind my uber. |
Family / Re: 95 Per-cent Of Nigeria's Teenage Girls Cannot Boast Of Being Virgins! by chinani(f): 10:18pm On Aug 20, 2006 |
I feel you Gigitte. But somehow I don't think men are worried about women/girls on this level. I think they just want to be the "first to get there". |
Religion / Re: Can You Marry Someone Who Doesn't Believe In God? by chinani(f): 10:09pm On Aug 20, 2006 |
nferyn:My point of calling it a value judgment was not to put the pope of anyone else's value judgment above your own but rather to point out that no one substitute's anyone else's value for their own. So if you have your subjective view, based on your subjective values, how can you reach one, teach one? I don't disagree with you but I think your value judgment rife examples do not convince anyone who does disagree with you. nferyn:Well I always take the "Godfearing" thing with a grain of salt. Most of the Nigerian I know think in more than one language. If you ask, "Don't you mean such & such" They will say "Yes that's what I said". Anyhow, that comment I ignore. nferyn:I'll have to get back to you on this one. I think I have a counter point. . .I think. |

Shiit like this, I don't like. When a black woman has many kids, she a hoe. . .when I white woman does, she's on MSN. *eye roll* |

Efani:Why? Honestly you should like you have issues? Since I don't wanna prejudge I'll anxiously await your intelligent reply. |
Family / Re: 95 Per-cent Of Nigeria's Teenage Girls Cannot Boast Of Being Virgins! by chinani(f): 10:34pm On Aug 19, 2006 |
I'm tired of men decrying the virginity of women/girls! Where is your own virginity? Or did you want to borrow hers sha? I guess she should be pure enough for two while you chop & go w/ every girl on the street? Maybe Nigeria's Teenage Girls only boast about men like you. . .maybe she traded her virginity for you. . . . . .and you were what? Nothing? |
Family / Re: Nigeria Law For Divorce by chinani(f): 10:29pm On Aug 19, 2006 |
In fact hell no! But this is b/c the Nigerian penal code isn't designed for private matters such as divorce. Divorce is still uber taboo in Nigeria though it does happen. I think this man is telling you stories. Is he in the UK while his wife is in Nigeria? If so, they're prolly still together & he's just shining his kobo with you. |
Family / Re: How Will U Handle Ur Husband's Mistress? by chinani(f): 10:27pm On Aug 19, 2006 |
Well firstly, I'd stopped having marital relations with him. I guess my self drive is really high, I'd leave him so I could find someone else to have marital relations with. Kicking him out of my (our?) house would somewhere in there. If I was older & filthy rich, I'd buy a loft & move myself in. One day he'd come home & be very surprised. . . |
Family / Re: How Will U Handle Ur Husband's Mistress? by chinani(f): 10:22pm On Aug 19, 2006 |
My husband has a mistress!?! . . .didn't even know I was married. . . [center]Just wanted to make everyone smile [/center] |

When I wrote "I meant all these things" I was referring to my entire post (incl. the comments about theists) not just the comments about non-believers. nferyn:I agree with this. I was actually an existentialist at 14. Since it's been nearly 7 years since my beliefs have changed I won't try to explain it to anyone but you have a point. nferyn:This is a value judgment. While I may agree with it, I don't think that you are more equipped than the Pope or Al haji to decide which peoples are more genuine. As long as one views his life meaningfully, isn't the source of meaning secondary? nferyn:I think the concept of hell has little moral value. I think it's primarily negative and antithetical to God. I don't believe in hell. nferyn:Well I did not assume. I interpret the views of atheists as nilhistic and sometimes apathetic. (Not all of them.) Your post made me realize that maybe this is a value judgment borne out of my subjectivity. This may be true but even when I try to be neutral that is my interpretation. Again, let me stress, I do not be all or most. . .a better way to think of it is greater than the percentage you'd find in a random sampling of the population and greater than the percentage you'd find in a sampling among believers alone. |
