Meat roll.

Aunty Babyosisi this one is for you.
You need to replenish your strength after that world war 5

coogar:
discharged & acquitted!
i am too good.

Innocent and also incorrigible.

Phew!

coogar:
next time, have your evidence in place before throwing accusations.

Ok you're innocent.

coogar:
so no evidence?
just conjecture?
chai chai chaiiii!

Abeg I'm too lazy to go looking for that post amidst thousands of others in pages numbering over 50.

I don't know how you guys do it.

Anyway repent. That's all.

njokusboy:
Nothing to say to you
That has got to be the biggest joke of the year...
I just don't relish the idea of dragging you along...
My point is made

What was your point?

I remember It was the thread about the man that killed his wife.

As usual the case enter voicemail. I was just watching you insulting people's fathers.
It Is well. I'm not going to look for the thread.

You do realize that if I posted that comment of yours. It is the same as what happened in that mutter's post. Just using your own post to prove that you're speaking from both sides of your mouth. How's that an insult?
If I claim that I've never insulted anyone here before and someone brings my old post to prove me wrong, would I consider that an insult?
Nope.

Just know that you're equally guilty of verbal abuse without provocation.
If you admit that one, the matter don end be that.
But I know you won't so.... Moving on.

Let's agree to disagree on the issue of verbal abuse deserving physical retaliation.
We will never see eye to eye on that issue.


Just so you know, even if a fellow man insults you, he doesn't deserve to be hit.
That's why if it goes to court, that guy will go free and you will be penalized.
Same as if I hit another woman first because she insulted me.

So what does it have to do with equality? Nothing.

coogar:
go & dig it out for clarity sake....
you have your chance to prove me wrong tonight - take the chance!



no, it wasn't an insult.
the post was actually praising her. your hypocrisy would sink the titanic.



there's a reaction to every action....
if the males only resort to verbal abuse in retaliation then why would you expect me to blame them? you have to agree a lot of the women on here mistake kindness for weakness.



verbal abuse doesn't justify physical?



they are all classified under domestic violence.



such men are in the minority!
we have facts they say women start the problem in 70% of such cases.



if a woman runs her mouth to the point of provoking her hubby to hit her, she deserves the beating. you cannot continue to hide under sėx equality and then turn round to tell us women don't deserve to be hit. what do men do when provoked by fellow men? do they not fight each other? why then should it be different from their reaction if the primary aggressor is female?

bukatyne:
I read Some threads and step back.

That place is a no go area.
I dey thread carefully for that side.

The guys over there put 'sult' in the word 'insult'

Chillis:
Anyway, for those without mb. Here it is

That's a size 40dd right there

Abbott:
Well, seeking ego-massagers, I think, is not the right manner of approaching this issue. There should be, nay, there are better ways to deal with issues such as this. These type of men come across as emasculated, puny men finding excuses. I don't think anything has really changed. This will be the same thing this men will say even if the only difference between 2015 and 1502 BC are the number and alphabet.

The demands of this century, this millenuim, this age just like the eons BC is that men should grow beyond living and thinking of survival but living beyond themselves, leading and living lives of exploits, life that leave legacies beyond them. It does not necessarily have to be grandiloquent yet it will always remain grand through ages. It definitely requires more from men than we are willing to admit to accept and live out the role of the man. My conclusion is that a lot of men have accepted and agreed that they don't have what it takes or that they cannot afford to pay that price now.

And it gets worse. Decade by decade.

Imagine. 7 centuries down the line. Young people read of some young men that simply withstood an unuterrably corrupt and evil government. Started first with some 21 young men who just stood in front of Aso Rock for whatever the cause is....days to weeks to months...Harassed. Brutalised. Maimed. Killed. Eventually, a nationwide backlash occurred...the cleansing we have so much talked and dreamed about...people died..lots of them. The sun of change arose and gradually but things changed. I know it is soooo corny but you get the drift.

[/b]

Wow. Who are you?

Following

bukatyne:
I think a lot of them hold that same belief (on NL )

My own is that What is verbal abuse?

Family section is mild. Go to politics and see men running mouth like typewriters.

If only one of them will be honest and straight forward enough to admit that men are verbally abusive too.

Chillis:
Menh I could kill for that ultimate warrior asss

Edwife
Cococandy ( I dash you kamala)

Lolz

njokusboy:
Mtschew

Of course.

Nothing to say?
I talk, I'm insulting.
I don't, I'm running.

You don't even know what you stand for.

coogar:
the women are the chief culprits....
the men are just trying to catch up to level things up.
that is usually in self defence.

provide the evidence.....
they do.....
women can't stop talking or stop bringing people's personal lives on to the threads just to score a cheap brownie point. the case of mutter is still fresh in our memories.



i trust the men on here not to stoop so low into such rubbish. who went to an old post to dig up mutter's personal experience?

male or female?
and i remember her saying the kind of abuses she's received from the women on this forum is horrible - and she's received none from the men.



you are getting the message wrong....

women were justifying verbal abuse on this thread. they said verbal abuse shouldn't give the man the cojones to put his hands on a woman - provocation or not. that was what brought the argument.

I really don't like going Over old issues except I can't avoid it.
Coogar you want me to go and dig that your post?
Anyway I won't . But it is true.

Was mutter's post made to insult her?
Whatever sha.

You're biased. At least me I admit everyone is guilty of verbal abuse but you keep ignoring the part the males play in the whole 'word wars'

I reiterate that verbal abuse doesn't justify physical. How about the guys who have sharp tongues, do their wives beat them up?

The earlier we separate the two, the easier it will be to tackle each one for its own peculiarities.

If we keep bringing up the issue of verbal abuse everytime physical abuse is mentioned? What about the cases of those who hit their wives or husband without being verbally provoked to it?
How will their cases be discussed since there is no verbal abuse to tie the physical abuse to?
Sweep it under the carpet because we can't find something to justify the violence with?

njokusboy:
I thought you didn't know me before
And hey, I know the origin of your feud with freshdude... I hoped/prayed he was gonna stop when he pummeled your a'r's'e and had you running around like a pullet...

Goodbye again

Nwoke m pls stop mentioning me in dead issues.
Ignoring rants equals running
Replying back equals being verbally abusive.

You gotta choose what means what to you.

njokusboy:
Dat emoticon does not change the fact that you lied through your teeth when you said you don't look for trouble...
Problem with you, is that you cannot take the heat...

GOODLUCK

Wrong.
I said I learned to look for trouble on this forum.


And hey pls if you don't know the origin of something, stay out of it. You get?
You only notice the ones I reply
You don't notice the ones I ignore.

Bye

dinachi:
Hey take it easy. Everyone knows I am a gentleman on this forum. I bless those who abuse me. I do not lift a finger...except in self defence for public good.

This is what is called advanced sarcasm

.... Tallesty 2015

Ok I get the drift.
Do you agree that guys here do it more?

Before one topic has reached 20 comments, someone is insulting someone's father.
Or how they lack male figures in their lives.

I've caught you in the act before.

I hardly see ladies talking about the males posters wives or insulting them.
But a particular set of males on this forum won't let a sentence about Nigerian males pass without making direct jabs at a contributors husband.

Sometimes they even do it when you are not in any way generalizing and worse still when it even has no bearing on tha matter at hand.

Anyway since you see that, then we are on the same page.

verbal abuse is not the sole preserve of females as has been proven by nairaland. A community of random folks from different walks of Nigeria. No better random sampling than this.

coogar:
you will never catch me attacking anyone opposing or supporting. what you don't realise is a lot of posters here lack what oyibos call the netiquette.

they don't know when to draw the line between making a general statement & doing the personal attack. for instance, poster A says nigerian women are very violent. poster B will quote him & say poster A's female family members must be violent.

do you get the drift now?

njokusboy:
No, you dont... I am not freshdude...

Anyway goodnight.

coogar:
don't pretend like there's no history between the two. think about it yourself - is it logical for dinachi to just attack a poster he has never had anything to do with?

So that makes it ok?
I have history too with some posters. If I come on a thread where I don't agree with them,
is it ok for me to leave the topic under discussion and start throwing insults at them?

Meanwhile dinachi doesn't even need history with anyone to insult them
The thing flows from within him without provocation or even relevance to the issue at hand.

All you need to do is disagree with him and his next post addressing you will begin with
"rotten pucci, maggot infested hole between your legs" (I'm still curious about what his fixation with that part is).
Even if he doesn't know you from before.

coogar:
thank feck you said before my opponent...... - which simply means i am a reactive aggressor. i always respect the rules of engagement. i don't pull the trigger before i am attacked

Opponent as in the opposing debator.

Ok let's not drag it out.

When you start again, I will remind you.

Coogar did you notice it was a male dinachi that started the insulting this time around?

Will you still say women are more verbally abusive?

Abeg both males and females are culprits. EOD

njokusboy:
Like in the case of freshdude right...

I'm sorry do I know you?

coogar:
i am very innocent.
i dare anyone to say i deliberately picked on her without any sort of provocation. the women who get verbally-lashed on this section were asking for it.

it's as simple as that!

Innocent

I don hear an finish today.
Coogar you're a chief aggressor.

Before your opponent will even finish his or her sentence, you've insulted their village and academic achievement.

So Mr bend down and learn from the gentlemen on this forum

If there's was ever the professional teachers of snidery, it is NL dudes.

I didn't even know what that was until I got on this forum.

Dede leave talk.
Verbal abuse is rife among males.

I don't expect you to agree sha.

Why they attack a particular set of females? Is the same reason why the babes attack a particular set of males. It is not rocket science

Nobody can claim innocent in this matter. Especially not you.

I'm sorry I didn't come on NL to learn or imitate anyone coogs.
You don't see shyte flying and pretend you're ok with it so why expect someone like me to do same?

Why not learn from bellong, thorpido, lewstherin, Nashville etc etc? Do you see any of the particularly being attacked?
Abi you don pass to learn?

It goes both ways.
.

coogar:
you really think they would stand back and watch when you throw your snide remarks or when you curse them subliminally?



this is not true - they only call you out after you must have thrown a snide remark.



and yet you wonder why these guys only attack a particular sėt of women on this thread and not the others. show me when these unruly men with potty mouth have ever attacked chaircover, greatgod, damiso, etc. if you cannot provide any evidence then i should advise you to watch the company you keep or learn to behave yourself.



so why do women think verbal abuse is a natural feature of theirs & they can use it as they wish on their men?

I don't see much resemblance, but both of you look great

babyosisi:
We have actually progressed to say that in 80% of cases women are the primary physical abusers according to freecocoa.That is a new one I just learned today.

I don't think she really means that.

You know how nairaland be na. Sometimes one can over quote a percentage to make a point.

#iamguiltytoo

If it does come to pass, it won't ruin lives.
It will just provide us with the push we need to go Into the extensive production of what we need for ourselves.

Many economies were built this way.
By the time productivity is at an all time high and quality is great, we would be less dependent on outside products giving us upper hand we need for our currency to be rated high in the international market.

I know my explanations are kinda simplistic but I guess I'm getting my points across

A simpler example.
Imagine if Nigeria didn't have limestone reserves? We would be importing the heck out of cement. Making us more and more dependent on foreign resources.

But countries like USA make use of wood to build their mansions because that is the resource most available to them instead of importing.
And they do it so well it is awesome.
I doubt Nigerians would favor wooden houses over cement if we didn't have limestone.
Na. We would import.

Too bad.

bestestgirl:
you are quite right sha, but our standards org would have to stop taking bribes and really sit up. I guess the rest of us will just have to endure the hardship until the local manufacturers get their act together. I pray that that other prediction of the naira falling to 280 does not come to pass

[b]I think we should try to separate physical abuse from verbal abuse.
Everytime one comes up, the other is brought up by the other arm of debaters making it seem as if verbal abuse is always the precursor to physical abuse which is hardly the case.

Physical abuse can be triggered by anything as long as the abuser is violent by nature.

Always bringing verbal abuse into the equation everytime physical abuse is mentioned undermines the real issue that real victims are suffering from.

Even though everyone means well, it always seems to the one side like the other side is justifying physical or verbal abuse respectively.
which is not true (assuming we are all normal)

That said, verbal abuse should also be addressed. albeit on its own. When the topic is raised and someone brings the angle of physical abuse into it, the message is lost because it then seems as if there's an underlying impression that the one justifies the other. Which may not even be what the poster/posters mean.

Let's try and keep them separate.

Instead either type of abuse can be addressed from the POV of both genders seeing as both men and women are capable of both physical and verbal abuse even if in lower proportions relative to the other gender.

bestestgirl:
unlike China and Japan, we do not have good innovative locally produced products. So we'll just end up paying more for those imported goods.
Already my online programme fees have almost doubled

It could be improved upon. Necessity is the mother of invention.
If we import easily, we will never see the need to improve our own products.
That said, aba made products last more than some designers even. We just over look them because to nigerians anything foreign is better.

Aba can become the China of west africa if money is pumped into the productivity of those young enterprenuers over there.

I hope the govt considers and urges them to come take easy and low interest rate loans to boost their productivity. plus measures to promote a certain level and standard of goods only.

It can be done.

In addition if you're living abroad, the few dollars you send home will support your loved ones more than its previous value.

Cool

KevinBrown:
Kai, Nigerians we are funny o. Whenever we hear that the value of the Naira has fallen more deeper, we will start panicking. "Ah jonathan see what you have done to us...." Some are even saying Buhari will make $1=N30. (Mind you I'm a buhari supporter).

A lot of people don't know how economic works. Have you ever wondered why countries like China and Japan are artificially devaluing their currencies?




Advantages of a Weak Currency:

* Imports become more expensive:

It's an advantage, believe you me. If our currency becomes weaker, importing goods and services from abroad will become expensive, and this in turn will cause demand for local goods and services (which will be relatively cheaper). Some will say local goods (and services) are inferior, but over time, it will develop.
Some critics will also be against a weak currency because now the iPhone 6 they are supposed to buy for N150,000 now cost over N200,000. Yeah that's good. Spend the money on nigerian made products, and perhaps with local patronage, they will also be able to develop an iPhone-quality product.

* Traveling outside the country will also become expensive:

This is also good. All those people (depleting our foreign reserve) sending their kids abroad to study, perhaps its time to come home.

All those dubai crazed shoppers, perhaps it's time to visit Tinapa in Calabar.
The list goes on and on...

If you should look at it with an unbiased mind, u will realize its the rich that has more to gain with a strong naira.

Now is time to develop our own local industry and economy. So join me to pray that 1 barrel of oil falls to $5.

Now is the time to get off the oil driven economy
