Since you asked me to Google, here’s what Google says.
Well I’m Nigerian. Why won’t I have Nigerian mindset? What mindset should I have?
I should’ve listened to the small voice that was telling me to ignore you the first time you quoted me. Something in me knew it was about to be some BS.
You don’t know me. I wasn’t sharing my personal opinion. I Just telling you what’s happening in the current culture.
If you asked me what my personal opinion about designer items are and if they’re worth it etc, then based on my response, maybe you can have a basis to be going off the deep end like you’re currently doing now.
studyless123: Which America? I guess your America. So I need to wear 50k clothing before someone will say I'm wearing designers. Tell me the city (except Houston) where you are in America and I'll challenge you to a Vox pop. Tell me how much you're willing bet on this. I told you initially you don't know what designers mean, you should have used Google or ask fashion designers. My dear designers are not viewed as Luxury in America. I've been to all the major cities and 2 fashion shows. Right now I'm jobless, so I can come see the Americans you associate with that view designers as luxury items. So much for Naija mentality.
"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." — Isaac Asimov
studyless123: Exactly my point designers doesn't equate luxury. It's only in Nigeria that people think such. I actually don't know who you mean by when people say designers? Which people are you referring to? There's is no where in the world where Coach, Michael Kors or Kate Spare are not called designer clothing.
For Luxury items, we also have the lower, mid and upper echelons. Rodeo Drive is a famous luxury street for elite shoppers same as 5th avenue in NY. Instead of me to spend on such, I'd go for custom hand clothing.
Designers are viewed as luxury items in America. That’s why as the cultural appeal reduced and lack of exclusivity happened with brands like mall Michael kors and Kate spade etc, people no longer refer to them as designers.
So if for example you say that you only dress in designer items and start pulling out brands like Michael Kors, people are going to look at you like “that’s it?” Where are the DESIGNERS?” Because when you say that, they’re expecting more exclusive brands. This is a cultural phenomenon that’s true for everywhere. I know you know that but you wanted to let me know that you know the definition of designers according to the dictionary.
Aonkuuse: How do sexual harassment victims win their cases in court? Do they just accuse people and the judge base his judgement on mere words of their month, if you answer this then that is the answer to your question.
Aonkuuse: So you are saying everyone should just believe her because she said it? Leave politics aside and put yourself in Akpabio's shoes, everyone should believe any woman who come accusing you of sexual harassment because it's hard to gather evidence in such events?? What of those who have gone to jail of sexually harassment, did the court take the woman's word and base their judgement on it?? You can do better than this.
I didn’t say that though. I asked you a question that you didn’t answer. I haven’t actually said anything so I don’t know why you’re assuming what I’m saying.
I’m just asking you “how do you propose a victim of harassment should go about getting the evidence?”. Don’t think about Natasha or Akpabio in this case. Just imagine two ordinary people. What would be your suggestion for the procurement of evidence?
Aonkuuse: This woman's month has put her into trouble..... You wake up and accuse someone of such allegations without backing it up with evidence and you think you can get away with it?
What kind of evidence do you think people who have been sexually assaulted should present?
And if it happens that they weren’t equipped to gather evidence when it occurred , are you saying they should suck it up and not talk about it?
Before you respond, I’m not asking about this specific case. I’m just asking general. How do you propose that victims of sexual assault go about the gathering of evidence?
Tightpussy2024: I have not fought men or argued with men for their polygamy.its when they start demanding virtue from women and start trying to hold women accountable I have a problem.
He,resents women for hypergamy but will want to exercise his polygamy. Ask him what a good woman is ,and it will revolve around depriving herself the very biological need of every living thing,which is sex and also denying herself the right to hypergamy(marrying a man that earns 50k)
What will women gain?
Him.and the idiot pansophist,always are gatekeepers for prescribing punishment for women. But will ascribe to men weaknesess as "natural".
These are people that if they caught pants down with their secretaries,they will say "my flesh overcame me" But will scorn a rich man mistress as belonging to the streets.
That is why I respect you and ubunja,none of you both have ever resented women for their hypergamy.
Do whatever you want as a man.just stop preaching to women.
Even Jesus in his entire life was preaching to men alone. Monkey face should know better,as he is a religious person
At the bolded then why is it always women fault when they fall for the wrong guys and make errors?why does judge her by her past exist?
If we are being lenient in judging men because is biological,then why can't we be lenient in judging women for being the weaker vessels?
It is very natural that a young beautiful woman will be with the top alpha men and when she is no longer beauty she will settle for the average man. Or a woman will carry the seed of an alpha male, and when he has moved on,an average man will have the burden of taking over and carrying for her and her offspring?
Why can't men also accept the naturally fickle women nature as highlighted above too?why must they be punishment for women for even breathing.
One man told me I shouldn't blame men for cheating that we women tempt men. I replied,don't blame women that do hookup and runs,men tempt them with me money too.
pocohantas: I have had someone say this to me and I thought he was joking until he said it with all seriousnes. Really nice guy in other aspects, but he insisted he is for all the women in Nigeria.😂
I like his honesty. At least you heard him and knew he was serious. And as it wasn’t your cup of tea, you let him be.
Many of them won’t say anything because the girl they want doesn’t want to share. Then they trap her in a marriage and start gaslighting her with scripture and tradition when it could’ve all been avoided
Gerrard59: I am genuinely curious, what do you say about men whose wives refuse them sex and men who desire to have sexual intercourses with different women just for biology's sake? You know, this thing is hormonal. No be men's fault in its entirety.
I know you’re not asking me but the answer is not complicated.
Those men who want different women while still married can start by being honest at the beginning of the relationship. Let the woman know that’s what you are into. There are so many women who are okay with sharing their husbands as long as the man fulfills his part of the bargain whatever that looks like in their specific situation. The problem is men most of those kind of men don’t go for the women who are open to such arrangements. They want who no want them and the beginning of all their problems.
As for men whose wives refuse to sleep with them, divorce is always an option. Marriage no be by fire or force sha.
But I’ve even heard some women say when they’re older they won’t want sex. They don’t mind if the man gets it elsewhere as long as he’s discreet. If such a guy isn’t scared of getting HIV from side chicks, he can explore those options. Or if he’s one man one woman guy, he can still insist on a divorce and have a new wife who is willing to sleep with him.
And not only that, they’ll somehow hold you responsible for all the baddies that ever did him wrong
pocohantas: Honestly that comment gave me chills. So being virtuous is not enough. You can do everything right and your darling husband would put his ego and personal vendetta against baddies above his commitment to you.
May God give every good person a humane partner... I can't say more than this.
The women you are being unfaithful with in your hay days are still same women who wouldn't look you twice if you were still broke.
So in the longrun, who is gaining?
Or did I miss something in your logic?
It’s the upside down logic for me.
They get money and go cheat with those who used to snub them. Is that punishment? That’s what the girls wanted in the first place. The girls said “oga come back when you have money” and they did .
And now they’re perpetuating the narrative that if you suffer with a man he’ll leave you or cheat on you when he makes it. Further causing more girls act in the way they claimed they don’t like.
studyless123: Dear, Coach, Michael kors, Kate Spade are designers but you can say they're not luxury brands
Oh the artists themselves (not coach) are fashion designers obviously. They didn’t just launch their brands without credentials and got so much clout for nothing. Coach is a heritage label and reputation is built of their longevity.
But when people say designers (at least here) they mean luxury items. You’re the one getting caught up in semantics.
IjeBos: You can't make this stuff up. One of the guys who sponsored the "TDS is a mental Illness" bill, just got arrested for soliciting a minor for prostitution.
Oh my gosh🫨
But It actually checks out. Normal Tuesday on the right . Lord have mercy
Sometimes when I’m feeling masochistic, I let Fox News play for a few minutes before scrolling to a different channel and it’s easy to see why they appeal to their base. It would be funny if it wasn’t dangerous
IjeBos: I read National Review once in a while to understand the counter perspective to some of my arguments. Generally find them unpersuasive. There is a dearth of well reasoned intellectual thought on the right.
They think it can never be them because they’re kissing his boots for now.
IjeBos: I think it's pretty wild. Habeas Corpus is one of our CORE rights. Trump basically went to court yesterday and said he would not and does not have to answer the courts regarding who the people on the flights were or any info about the flights. The Judge seemed was not happy and called them into court again today and gave them questions he wanted them to answer by noon today..
I actually don’t need his association with others to classify him as one. Those are just extra.
He opened his mouth to talk about how he walks into half naked “women” (and by women there were teenagers amongst them) at his pageant to “inspect”.
That’s enough for me. But unfortunately there’s so much more. He’s a depraved sexual predator who surrounds himself with similar people.
Michelle said Harvey was a wonderful human being. Is Michelle running for office? What a silly inequivalence. And even if she were, did she sexually assault anyone? The comparison doesn’t exist because Trump sexually assaulted people.
Harvey is a sexual predator the same way Trump is sexual predator who has been found liable in a court of law for his actions. The fact that you’re not comparing Trump to Harvey but want to compare him to Michelle speaks of your insincerity.
Two people committed equivalent crimes and you’re comparing one of them to an acquaintance/friend of the other. Compare criminal to criminal let’s know you’re serious.
basilico: Be honest . Trump never went to the Paedophile island. And he didn't fly in the lolita express like Clintons. You are making laughable claims of Trump being a paedo.
Obama.. Mitchelle Obama praised Harvey Weinstein calling him "a wonderful human being, a good friend and just a powerhouse" . Her first born daughter interned at his firm. Does that connect her to Harvey literally raping ( not accused of that, in reality it was rape)..
You forget paedophiles try to ensnare as many people as possible, especially those like Epstein who blackmail their clients.
You are stopping too low. Epstein list hopefully will be released, today it's 80000 pages of JFK files being released. Epstein tried to blackmail Bill Gates remember , his friendship played a part in his divorce. Noone has accused Gated of being a paedo despite him visiting Epstein home after he had been released .
basilico: He was on Trump's spiritual team in 2016. You are implying Trump knew then about his encounters with an 11 old girl then , who came forward in 2024 What does it cost to be honest?
The same way he didn’t know what Jeffrey Epstein was doing on his island even though he flew there many times.
Same way Diddy is his good friend and he somehow never had a clue the kind of person he was.
PDPGuy: Daamn! I knew the so-called leaders of the “religious right” were a scam, but engaging in child trafficking is a whole new level of filth!
The thing is that it’s not new for them though. This is an established vice within the religious community be it Christian or Muslim. Muslims do theirs out in the open and justify it with religion.
Christians leaders hide theirs and point the finger at everyone but the culprits. It’s always some boogie person in the rainbow community that’s to blame meanwhile the churches are hiding pedophilic clergy.
If you look up the list of clergy who have been caught, indicted or credibly accused of child sexual misconduct, you’ll be shocked. By far and wide they are the ones most likely to sexually abuse children not the drag queens they love to scapegoat so much .
Every accusation they lay is a confession that’s why one has to be careful and know God for themselves otherwise these people will lead you to hell.
IjeBos: You're too stupid to even understand what you are advocating. You are making the argument that trials and courts are unnecessary because the government gets to decide your guilt. Just put your dunce cap on already and sit in the corner.
The point of the lawsuit and the Judge's temporary restraining order telling the plane to return was that there were people on the flight who sued and said they were not part of the gang. Hence their gang affiliation had not been adjudicated.
But all this is too complex to understand for someone who can't even conjugate a verb. God, I keep forgetting how fuxing stupid you are.
nor shall any State deprive ANY person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law. 14th Amendment.
We used to pride ourselves on being a country that upholds the rule of law. They’re fine a president who doesn’t honor that. Who doesn’t respect the constitution. As long as they believe he’s on their side.
In Nigeria, a man is the king in his home. He gets away with everything especially when he is well-to-do. Abroad, it’s a woman’s world. Even pets like cats and dogs hold a higher stake than a man . This is one of the reasons why marriages of immigrants easily crumble as some men struggle with the new reality.
Mercisharelove: Biden did worst to trump and family. Trump isn't even doing anything to biden
Elusive001: Biden and demoncrats were dragging him like 'I Pass My Neighbour' generator, you did call them evil and wicked.
He was a criminal who got investigated for his crimes. No one actually did anything to him. If they did, he would be in jail where he belongs.
He’s a whiner who never takes accountability for his actions and he uses the “I’m being witch-hunted” card to try to rile up his emotional base anytime it seems like accountability is coming his way.
No one did anything to him. For a 34 count criminal to ne president, he got off with barely a slap on the wrist
Trump’s spiritual advisor indicted for child sex crimes.
Birds of a feather.
If you’re not a perpetrator of child sexually abuse or willing to look the other way, you have no place in Trump’s team. Seems like it’s a requirement.
PDPGuy: Lol. He is a principled Libertarian who is spitting factsc
Libertarian is fancy word for republican who wants to stand out so badly.
I remember when Tucker Carlson was apostle Paul of the Republican Party.
And Nick Fuentes was the eager foot soldier.
I guess Trump in all his vileness is still not being radical enough for them. They need a new more radical more angry more racist messiah to throw their support behind.
They do blatantly misogynistic stuff like this and then tell you to be worried about trans people replacing you. I can’t even with the naivety of those who actually believed they care about women.
Ohio University is pausing a National Women's History Month event at one of its regional campuses, citing Trump administration directives and proposed state legislation.
Ohio University Lancaster will no longer hold its Celebrate Women 2025 event, scheduled for March 21, the university said in a press release.
"In light of recent guidance from the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights and proposed State of Ohio legislation, Ohio University is reviewing programming that includes elements that may not comply with the recent guidance,"
The event aimed "to promote and advance gender equity by recognizing the past, present, and future achievements of women from diverse ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds. We believe this is achieved through education, enlightenment, and inspiration," according to its webpage.
We are disappointed that we need to put this longstanding event on hold, and we will continue to be committed to providing a space for accomplished women leaders to connect with and inspire our students, staff and alumni,” said Ohio University Provost Don Leo. “We deeply appreciate the sponsors involved who have helped make this event possible, and we look forward to partnering on future events.”
The news comes days after Ohio University said it was canceling it Black Alumni Reunion scheduled for April. Ohio University cited the changes as a direct result of several mandates from the Trump administration to wipe DEI practices from colleges and universities.
Endless winning. We’re about to be the greatest ever.
Greatest in the least govt funded libraries, greatest in the least scientific research amongst “developed” nations. Greatest in most preventable contagious diseases amongst 1st world countries due to anti science policies.
This is an act of patriotism. If you love America you must support Trump to gut all govt services, install authoritarianism and undermine the constitution!
