Politics › Re: Why Are Nigerians Still So Poor? by cococandy(f): 11:24am On Apr 23, 2020
For the government to say that those that have more than N5,000 in their bank accounts (a mere $10 or so) are not eligible for the ongoing CCT, the poverty rate must be staggering.
This part blew my mind. I was sad for a long time after I read it. These people have no conscience.
Yet their children are the ones thronging high end shops here purchasing outfits and unimportant items worth thousands of dollars. Yet the population is supposed to live on monthly pittance less than $15 this lockdown.

It won’t be well with them.

Please stop. Before you know, it will be another two pages of cussing instead of food. There’s no award for who sabi find trouble pass.

Good morning .
Benzboys:
I didn't know i hit a nerve oo..sorry ma.
Just that I looked and assumed you must have like 4 grown up kids,with the least being 18.
Forgive my ignorance ma.
I'll just have to agree that some people look way older than their age ma.
Please forgive me.
Much love kiss

Thanks. I agree.
Senseless and sadistic violence I can’t stand.
Nudity is only a partial nuisance and can be ignored. PORRN? Youtube has all that for free!
Can you control that?


I have caught my kids many times CREATING NEW profiles or switching profiles on phones and tablets, pretending to be online-schooling. Meanwhile, THEY ARE YOUTUBE! cheesy

Disabling and enabling parental controls is a specialty in my home.

Almost ALL their classmates have phones and gather in bathroom and video tape themselves naked! I have seen it ALL! grin

What next?
Kids grin

Well I won’t be consciously trying to stop them from being exposed to porrn forever. I realize that at a point in their lives, it will be an unrealistic venture .
I’ll just not deliberately watch porrn with them present. And I know this should go without saying but...

I felt I had to include that when I said I don’t mind nudity/sex scene in a movie because apparently some things have to said or you’ll have some people panic quoting you to express their moral and holy thoughts grin
Family › Re: My Neighbour (female) Sleeps With Light On Every Night by cococandy(f): 11:54pm On Apr 22, 2020
frubic:
Good day fellow Nairalanders,

This is my first post and I'm going to summarize my gist. I m staying in a room self contain and met this beautiful & fair lady in her middle twenties in the compound I just move in. Before we stopped talking, I got to know that she can't sleep without light on (either her candle, rechargeable or electric light must be on) every night. I have confirmed it. When ever I come home late at night due to my nature of job. But she refused to give me details why she must sleep with light on.

I suspect her and same time inquisitive to know why? Because she has a strange attitude and I have never seen her goes to Church since I moved in.

Please, members of Nairaland if you know any good reason, let us know. Thanks.
You already know what you’re thinking. You just want others to egg you on to say it.

Anyway let me add my own “mind your business “ to the chorus

This is not actually far fetched. The hopelessness and lack of faith in an institution that should be trusted can send one into depression. Especially if harassment occurs at the hands of said institution.

The very definition of a toxic environment.
He already knows the truth about anything you could possibly say on this thread. His decision to believe otherwise is simply his decision. smiley

Why so?

Could it be that you wouldn't want to bring a male child into this world to be subject to the increasingly toxic environment women have created under the guise of feminism? Or perhaps you feel you lack the ability to raise a male child? What are your reasons?
I’m afraid in order to give you a proper answer, I’ll have to be dragged into a pointless unending roundabout conversation that I’ve had and concluded many years ago.

But simply put, my reason for worry is the increasingly brazen and violent racism that black women and men (more at risk of death being black men) are facing in this current society. That’s kind of the long and short of it.

You have a female child right? Say that you don't desire a male child cheesy
Let’s say I’m blessed with what I have. I don’t want to be partial and say if I had a male child now, I’d be actively trying to get a girl. But it’s the truth and I realized that’s a bit biased. So I’m very happy I got my first choice as my first.

I worry even, (especially considering the society I’ve found myself in) if having a male child will not give me constant hypertension. But I won’t be mad if whenever I decide to have a child again it turns out to be a boy.
I’ll just prepare myself for what’s ahead.
Culture › Re: Ogoja, Cross River Where Cameroonian Mothers Iron Their Daughter's Breast by cococandy(f): 11:17am On Apr 22, 2020
"The harassment she faced made our decision [to iron her breasts] easier," explains Helen, who fled Akwaya and lives in the Okende host community with her family. "All we did was for her own good.


So we punish the girls rather the men who molest them.
First of all, sexual violence is something we don’t take as seriously as we should as a nation. The tide almost always turns against the victims. If we are not blaming them for what happened to them, we are doing stuff like this to prevent it from happening to them.
All the while, the cause of the problem is left untouched.
Culture › Re: Ogoja, Cross River Where Cameroonian Mothers Iron Their Daughter's Breast by cococandy(f): 11:12am On Apr 22, 2020
pmoye:
We need to do something about sexual violence in Nigeria including all forms of culturally acceptable sexual harassment, FGM and breast-ironing. Something definite.
There’s no real legislation specifically banning such barbaric practices by name and that’s why different tribes can do various things in the name of culture and tradition and get away with it. We only get shocked when it’s something as significant as this. But that something definite has to be all encompassing such that there are no grey areas as to what’s legal or illegal.

1) Asking questions you already know the answer to.
2) women who are ardent foot soldiers in ensuring such misogyny thrives will also tell you that there’s nothing like oppression grin
3) pray for them

If they had reliable data collection system, then this won’t be an issue. I wonder why Nigeria as big as we are can’t invest in a reliable data collection system.
Family › Re: Lock Down Wahala : Can Children Watch “R” - Rated Movies With Parents? by cococandy(f): 6:01am On Apr 22, 2020
People can’t just focus on the topic.


At topic, I’d say it depends on the age of the child. All under 16 year old kids aren’t the same. An 8 year old is also under 16 and I’d definitely restrict more from such a kid versus a 14 year old.

At OP I think your discussion approach is more than reasonable. But personally, I have a thing against mindless/ sadistic violence in some kinds of movies. I’ll restrict my kid from such until they move out of my house grin. No discussions about it.

I have no problems with sexual scenes and nudity in movies (not talking about Indecency). We can watch and talk about it. The earlier the easier.

I’d be legit scared of being in an overcrowded public place when there is possible distribution of items based on who can grab it first. Na die be that. the stampede and those who will be trampled.
