Bendeco02:
Stop deceiving yourself.

You mentioned Burna Boy because you're dark and want to support dark skin.

I did not say that all girls will choose wizzy but majority.

Bad boy is not by muscle but by doings and cordination.

Most bad or play boys that women like are soft looking guys.

Even the dark guys women crush on are the soft looking ones not the gra gra or muscle type

Your first sin was comparing Wizkid to Burna Boy. Wizkid isn't even fair, literally medium dark tone.

Fair is Tecno or Flavor

I'm unbiased. My boyfriend is fair

Bendeco02:
I don't hate you dear.

For example; Wizkid is fair but his color is totally different from yours.

Drop wizkid and Burna Boy and ask your gender who they prefer more.

Even as Burna Boy is taller, majority will still pick wizkid.

Wizkid is somewhat 'effeminate'. Burna is a bad boy. Two different aesthetics that most women find irresistible.

I'll choose Burna any way. Rema used to be my favorite, but he's obviously homosexual.

So it's Burna, Asake, and Odumodu (because have you heard his damn voice?!)

Almana:
Yes, I checked my BMI and that's how I know my ideal weight. I've known it right from uni days more than a decade ago.

No opportunity to exercise much due to work and stress. Many companies just preach work life balance but dey don't practice it.

My urine has been clearer than even before I started. Only battling with weakness and slight headaches but man needs to prevail. Jesus did it and gave a solid example so he'll give me the grace to do this.

No worries. Wishing you the best. I'll suggest you put an emergency number on speed dial though. The weakness will persist, I wonder if you would have the strength to keep posting here.

Almana:
Today 8:30pm made it three days of successfully fasting on water only.

Who would believe that it's possible not to eat food for three days and still be alive?.

Though I feel very weak now.

I have been adding little salt to the water I drink.

I added white vitamin c yesterday.

Today it was salt, vitamin c, Calcium tablets and folic acid.

I thank God for the strength to continue this journey.

I still need advice on how to get potassium and magnesium supplements.

Get ORS

You'll probably kill yourself. When your urine turns dark brown, kindly update us

Did you check your bmi? Is that why you think 70kilogram is your ideal weight? There should be better, healthier ways to lose way. Exercise often? That way you lose the extra fat. What your doing is going to break down muscle tissue. Let's not talk about multiple organ failure and the rest.

Following thread nonetheless. This should be fun

Samantha125:
I also spoke for myself and all the other people who prefer light skinned people, so I really don't understand what you're on about...🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️

And light skinned Africans were already there before even colonialists came to Africa...🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️

Exactly, they just existed. Neither liked nor disliked. They are simply common human beings. The exaltation of fair skinned people in black communities began after colonialism. A result of being exposed to eurocentric beauty standards which during that time was considered superior.

We love fair guys, and I mean unambiguous African fair guys and not those mixed ones, don't let those dark skinned guys with superiority complex fool you.

So far I've never seen fair skinned people trying to darken their looks, but we can't say the same thing about dark skinned people, can we?

Isn't this your comment?

Have a blessed day!

Samantha125:
I've never seen Africans tanning their skin before.

And just because you prefer them medium to dark, it doesn't mean others don't prefer them fair.

Was bleaching a part of our culture pre-colonialism?

Exactly, that's why I said 'I'. I didn't generalize or trying to pull dark men down which is ridiculous because they are vastly preferred. Stereotypes are bitter truths.

Stephenmouka:
That is the main thing

If the guy had asked for them to spend the night at a hotel, op would have snapped and murdered him.

A man's kindness is hardly free. If the nurse was hideous, she would have been invinsible too.

People have been tanning themselves for ages tho.
And you should say YOU love fair men. I prefer them medium to dark.

Probably because he wanted to screw the nurse. Will you rather he was sexually interested in you, accept the favor for pay for your meal then bend over later on?

Let the women enjoy pretty privilege, it comes with a cost.

Or maybe she's lost interest and you need to respect yourself more, end the relationship and move on.

That's ninety percent more likely. But most men aren't ready to have this conversation.

Nope! Not interested in having my body disrespected. Not a organ/body donor.

Lalami3232:
If you're bored, just scroll to topics like this and you will be occupied because 99% of what you will see here will be premium Google lies. Not even chat GPT can rival the bulaba and hullabaloo of this kind of thread. One for up don pose as Jack Bauer already,even DSS dey fear am back then. Trump dey lucky say he no meet am back then 😁

And it's an anonymous forum. Makes you wonder why they do it.

Silentgroper:
Kpele .. white knight!!

Are we shaming men who stand up against rape?

KingDashx:
guy you be coward.

He's wisely scared of STIs.

Shallikopi:
Please doctors in the house

I use to have jock itch and I started using a cream they recommended thankfully the jock itch went off and now I've been seeing this reaction on my pubic area and I kinda have a foul smelling down there sometimes

Please what should I do

Note: I am Male

Thanks

Ineffective treatment
Secondary bacterial infection.

You really should see a medical doctor, get properly diagnosed and treated.

PinkNature:
Facebook is still Facebook ser

I was just about to say this! Lol.

Lmao. To think I spent my evening yesterday debating with a 19yr old why he thinks it's morally, intellectually and philosophically superior to avoid women and sex. Welp 😂

Which way modern men? Homosexuality or incelhood

Enskynelson:
Yes, you can pause. You dont have to do anything officially. By next semester, you can proceed with your second semester 100L while some of those your mates will be in their first semester 200L.

You're an angel! Thank you!

Enskynelson:
TMAs are still opened. Where are you getting your info from?
There are no lectures but online facilitation. Facilitation is not compulsory for you to be there.
Studying your course materials is what is the major thing is preparing for the exams.

Hi! I'm a National Open University student, 100lv. I have completed my first semester, but for many reasons I haven't been able to register my courses for this semester. 🫠

It's already so late to study and complete my TMAs. Will it be possible to put it off? Till next year, while others are in the second year. Thanks!

MaxInDHouse:
You dodge my question!

Please i'm not here for arguments so if you're not ready to answer the question it's OK.

Once again:

Can a man by and kill a child to cook and eat publicly?

Can a man by and kill an animal to cook and eat publicly?

We all know that in ancient times slaves were beaten to death on the accusation that the slave disobeyed his or her owner who bought him or her for the purpose of serving the master. But never has any slave master killed, cook and eat a slave publicly!

That still show the huge difference between the life of a slave and that of an animal.

So if only animals could be killed, cooked and eaten publicly by humans then Man has been made a demigod over all other creatures:

Then God said: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every creeping animal that is moving on the earth" Genesis 1:26

Your own son can kill, cook and eat your choicest pet but never will you spare a pet that kills your own son!

Lol! I did answer your question. But I'll do so again.

No, you can't eat your son. Not because you CAN NOT but because you decide not to. It's not an impossibility. There are cannibals, no? But the reason we aren't all cannibals is most humans find the idea of eating another human revolting. Your anatomy doesn't prevent you from doing so, even God gives you the free will to choose whether or not you would eat a human being. A father under extreme conditions (starvation) would eat his favourite son. That's life for you. Millions have done it, many more would.

It's the same as incest and child rape- we condemn it cause it's 'uncivilized' not because we are physically or spiritually incapable of marrying our siblings or sexually abusing children.

Back to the topic, if a father who's starving decides to eat his son, does that change the fact that the son is a being with a soul who used to worship God?

God allows us to eat animals, but that it us gaining sustenance from their bodies and not their souls. Because God understands they too have a higher form of life, he instructs us to not drink their BLOOD, which is life-giving.

So what's your point? When you eat a chicken, you eat it's flesh and it's soul goes to heaven. Same happens to the souls of those who were eaten by cannibals and other animals.

You say man is demigod, right? Why then do animals prey on us? Or you can command wild beasts to not eat you?

Because tigers and snakes have killed uncountable humans, doesn't mean they have dominion over us, or that we (the food) are soulless.

MaxInDHouse:
Ọmọ you don't know what demigod means!

Can a man by and kill a child to cook and eat publicly?

Can a man by and kill an animal to cook and eat publicly?

That's what demigod means!

Lmao! A man can rape and beat his slave, even kill her but he can't do the same to his wife and God forbid he disrespects a fellow man.

Yes, man can kill and eat an animal, proving the latter is indeed inferior but that doesn't change the fact that the animal worships God and may have a soul.

The slave that was murdered, is she souless? No!

The Africans who were tortured and killed by the early missionaries, are they souless? No!

Anything that is conscious of God's authority as it's creator and worships Him does so because of it's immortal soul, even the Devil recognises God as God! Everything on earth, above and underneath it does so too! Argue with the bible!

Faith is inherent, that's why there are thousands of religions and cults and such... Religion however is a human creation, it's creeds and doctrines too! Take these away and we do the same thing singing birds do, acknowledge and praise God!

MaxInDHouse:
So apart from humans can you explain how an animal does any of the four:
Feeling
Expression
Reverence
Adoration


This is what confused you!
If you want to stick to what the Bible God said about creation it's only man that was created in God's image so all other creatures live on instinct which means they have no ability to think regarding feeling, expression, reverence or adoration towards any deity, animals only regarding what is visible to them that's why God admonished man to become a demigod over all animals:

Then God said: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every creeping animal that is moving on the earth.” Genesis 1:26

So animals can only WORSHIP/ADORE Man as the VISIBLE demigod in Eden!

Alright...

Firstly, animals do feel emotions (from birds to dogs, dolphins and monkeys, tigers and snakes, etc)... As for reverence and adoration, that's faith and the expression of faith. You can't use biology to explain it; you can't explain why humans worship a God they can neither see nor touch but we do. Therefore, I can only use the Bible (which you believe in thoroughly) to validate my point.

Again, I'll quote this verse... Numbers 23-27
When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road with a drawn sword in his hand, she turned off the road into a field. Balaam beat her to get her back on the road.

Then the angel of the LORD stood in a narrow path between two vineyards, with walls on both sides.

When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, she pressed close to the wall, crushing Balaam's foot against it. So he beat her again.

Then the angel of the LORD moved on ahead and stood in a narrow place where there was no room to turn, either to the right or to the left.

When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam, and he was angry and beat her with his staff

If you read it, you'll understand that the donkey was entirely aware that it's master was being confronted by an Angel of God, the donkey recognised His authority and made several attempts to save it's master from God's wrath.

Secondly, with regards to this

This is what confused you!
If you want to stick to what the Bible God said about creation it's only man that was created in God's image so all other creatures live on instinct which means they have no ability to think regarding feeling, expression, reverence or adoration towards any deity, animals only regarding what is visible to them that's why God admonished man to become a demigod over all animals:

So you mean Animals don't recognize God as their creator despite the Bible numerously stating that they do? They were instructed to praise God, along with man. The Bible is wrong? Or the ancients who wrote it were silly to give human attributes to animals?

Man isn't 'demigod over animals'... That's blasphemous.

God placed parents over their children, commanding the latter to obey and honour the former.

He also placed men over women, commanding the latter to obey and honour the former.

He also placed priests over their congregations, commanding the latter to obey and honour the former.

He also placed masters over their slaves, commanding the latter to obey and honour the former.

Are parents, men, priests, and masters demigods? The answer is NO! Because they were also given the responsibility to cater to the needs of those beneath them. Their privilege doesn't make them God's second-in-command but God's representative on earth. For example, the priest concerns himself with the spiritual needs of his congregation but that doesn't mean his followers have no souls nor the ability to worship God without his intervention. He was simply appointed by God to nurture and guide His people.

God made man in his image, yes but what had that got to do with faith? Does God worship a superior being? Our intelligence and higher consciousness makes us alike to God, that's it. But animals being inferior doesn't make them dumb beasts. If they were, why did God bother creating them? Why were they in the garden Eden alongside Adam and Eve? Why reserve them a place in the paradise to come?

***

If you persist in claiming animals are oblivious to the presence of a divine creator, you're indirectly saying faith and religion is a human thing.

***

Animals do have faith, they recognise that earth is the good work of God and they praise him however they can. Because they don't participate in elaborate human rituals doesn't change that.

MaxInDHouse:
If you make something and that thing is perfect as in working as intended we could say it brings you praise.

Likewise all the things God created brings him praise it doesn't mean they're worshiping Him!

Disappointing...

Let me define 'worship', so you understand better

Oxford dictionary

Noun

The feeling or expression of reverence and adoration for a deity.

Now, animals 'praising' God as the true ominipotent deity, I infact worship.

Isaiah 43:20

Even the wild animals will honor me; jackals and ostriches will praise me when I make rivers flow in the desert to give water to my chosen people.

Emphasis on the words, 'honor' and 'praise'...

Take away the elaborate rituals of the Church and that's exactly what humans do! We simply 'acknowledge', 'honor' and 'praise' God.

Catholics do that with mass and the holy communion. Jehovah witnesses are more of a close-knit community (if you understand what I mean). Protestants are more concerned with miracles and such.

Like I wrote earlier, the language barrier stops us from communicating with animals, which therefore prevents us from understand their manner of worship (remember, just because it's different and incomprehensible doesn't mean it's non-existent or unimportant)...

Whites justified enslaving Africans because the latter were nothing but 'faithless barbarians' but we know this isn't true...

I think it's about time Christian redefined it's position on the God given rights of animals (not sure how to phrase it but you understand).

The inability of animals to communicate doesn't mean they lack a soul. Science and the Bible has proven that they are equally conscious beings capable of emotions and faith... Whites then used to assume Blacks were soulless due to our different culture, and the language barrier made it easier to reinforce this stupid belief.
