Hangulsaram:
You can not compare making the bolded in America with Nigeria, over there ur one month salary (i mean average salary if not the minimum wage) is enough to get it unlike in Nigeria, where even a full staff banker have to cough out almost two month salary to do so , how much more ordinary worker that depends on the new minimum wage of 30k a month. It will take his 2 year salary to do so. So don’t even try to compare both Biko.
I’m not comparing. I’m just saying it’s not easy money.

Living expenses also aren’t the same in these countries.

Monthly house payment for a four bedroom family house is about the same as $2,000 on average. Many places cost more. Some cost a little less.
How many Nigerians are paying monthly rent or mortgage of 600k to 1 million. Every month?
Yet that’s what some of us pay here.

So, yes it might be easy to make that in month, but it just goes out as easily in expenses.

To have it as free spending money frivolous things like an iPhone is not easy.

There’s nowhere in the world that close to $2,000 is easy money.

It doesn’t matter where you are.

I just think the phone is not a big deal. It’s certainly overpriced. That’s what my comment meant. Not that the money to buy it is not a big deal.

Hangulsaram:
If you are in Nigeria maybe you will understand, you would n’t cough off that money to buy that phone.

It’s crazy right now.

Every time you call to say hello it’s just a rehearsal of how bad things have become.

No amount of money is enough to make anyone comfortable right now because they are still paying more than usual for everything.

Women don’t need you as an ally.

You’re hateful towards women and only are found in places where women are to be ridiculed and mocked.

Shove your faux concern

Fight for yourself.

Is it by force to buy what these misandrists are selling? Even their fellow women are getting tired of the agenda.

As for you cococandy, I'm not wicked. I actually fight for the course of women - my desire for your kind is that y'all become as independent as y'all can be. Be empowered and stay off mens pockets wink

On the contrary, it’s you guys who won’t stop bothering unmarried women.

They are sad because men have been fighting tooth and nail to convince them that they need marriage

They are sad because of the pressure put on them by society
mankettle:
.
not to join issues with you but I have a lot of guys( Nigeria not foreign) who are single and don't have any intention of marrying soon. these guys are well paid and have good careers.
whereas I also have female friends who also have good jobs etc but are sad because they are not married.
I am not doubting the research done, but I believe the research wasn't carried out in Nigeria and so what applies there may not apply here.

This topic always pains men

Men are such hypocrites.
They go about declaring that they hate marriages
And have no need for it
Marriage is bondage,
Etc etc

But when women open their mouths to say they are happier without marriages just like men they get angry and forcefully insist that women want and desire marriage

Something like that.

But sold in the store. Because it’s actually not easy to make enough bread crumps at home for a full recipe.

But if you can’t find it in store, you can make yours. Here’s how.

To make by hand: Place dry bread in a sealed bag. Smash with a rolling pin to break into crumbs. Place in a resealable bag, and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. If using fresh bread, place slices on a baking sheet and dry out slightly in a 300-degree-Fahrenheit oven for 15 minutes.
.

You can dry the bread by roasting it in the oven. Make sure not to burn it

Yep. You know them well.

It’s the woman’s responsibility to stop the man from ruining the home. But he’s the leader.

In a weird twisted makes-no-sense kind of way, the leader of the home is the one who has to be shielded like a mindless child so that he doesn’t do anything to ruin the family. And if he does do it, then he has no responsibility whatsoever in what he did.

After all, in a leader-like manner, he has no control of himself .

Mind boggling.
Ugosample:
man is a product of his environmental influences

so you should not be surprised when you see comments like these

You just feel sorry for him that's all

If men in Nigeria were are scared as women about "ruining their homes"

I agree. this one pass enemy.

Very diabolical
theButterfly:
It's evil enough that she deceived you into marriage with her pregnancy plan and that she has been devising one plan after the other through your marriage to prevent you from finding out the truth, but to be unapologetic and unremorseful for her actions is something else, the same way she would be unapologetic and unremorseful had you contracted it. You might as well be married to your enemy.

Pls how did you fry that chicken shocked shocked shocked
Sorry hun I’m really lazy to type recipes these days. To think and organize the steps dey hard me. grin

Here’s a link a YouTube video of how I made mine.

You can tweak your seasonings and spices to your taste. I didn’t use butter milk to marinate like she did. I did marinate over night in just my spice blend.
And I didn’t add corn starch to my flour.

I made sure to test the meat with my kitchen thermometer. It’s cooked when the inner temp reaches 180 on the thickest part. And I also used a deep fryer like she did.

Just insert the thermometer in one big piece to make sure it’s done and you can be sure the rest are cooked as well.

Disgusting spits
AgreatMan:
Agneseze

If you follow this advice, you will crumble your marriage with your own hands. It doesn't mean it is a faulty advise, you just need to determine if you want to settle this or your want to throw blames.

D first person to blame is the OP. You brought a matured female into your own home because u couldn't take your of your home yourself.

A man and a woman are wired differently. Firstly, a man is attracted by what they see n u brought him something to see. Secondly, a man might vow never to touch a woman, but if the woman touches him...then... Since she wasn't raped, she could have initiated it.

Your husband did it but you cannot allow this ruin your marriage. You must also not allow him lose face. That child is yours but you must ensure it never happens again, n your ability to ensure this doesn't happen depends on d level of influence you have on him.

Is there anyone who doesn’t agree with you that isn’t emotional?
Probably beyond your capacity to understand but being emotional isn’t always bad. However, that’s talk for another day. Don’t want to exhaust your already tired brain.

That you think you’re making sense and even expect me to debate you shows how far from reality you are.

Because some women would love to use Davido for his money means what exactly?

Please go away with your moot points. I’m officially over it now

calgaryFriend:
You see what I was saying, you put too much emotion and bitterness into everything.
I have raised valid points that you could have chosen to provide an intelligent rebuttal, but you chose to be disrespectful with your response.

You damn know deep down I am right, I understand you dont like that things work that way.

Look at Davido, after impregnating 3 ladies, I hope you know there are plenty ladies on this platform that would not hesitate to join his harem.

Thats simply the reality, Africa is a patriarchal society .

Chance eau tendre is absolutely mesmerizing. I think they are both lovely for different reasons. Chance is a girl and no5 is a woman. I often layer both at the same time for that combined effect.

You should wear Bleu de Chanel or Monsieur if you don’t already.

I’m Bitter and emotional. Classic. You’re logical and reasonable. grin

Who made the different rules?
Dimwits like you?

Your ancestors had more satisfying marriages? According to whom? Don’t bother replying.

The rest of your post doesn’t even deserve a response. Sounds like something a hormonal teenage boy who’s thinking with his pennis would write.

Pass.

calgaryFriend:
You sound very bitter and emotional.
You have to learn to differentiate between realities and fantasies.

The reality is what I have painted for you, regardless of what you think, thats the way Africa works.

And yes, our ancestors were not always wise, but they had a much more stable and satisfying family life than we have today , so much for our emancipation and egalitarianism.

Its just like you waking up and saying , why do women have to go through menstruation every month and men dont, or why do women have to be the one to carry pregnancy.

Do you see how stupid that would be ? Is that fair no ? But still if you asked that question that would be very stupid of you.

Thats exactly how you sound now, again. Men and women in Africa operates with different rules.

Let me give you an example, if your sister brought home a guy now as a partner, the first question you would ask her is what kind of job does he do.
In your mind you already believe he will be the one to provide for the home, your sister may not even have a job, that does not matter.

Do men come out and scream blue murder ? It is just the way it is... I hope you get my point. .
