that was how I was talking to a girl.. . And she was blowing grammar here and there... and I asked her what's her discipline.. .. She told me... and I asked with school... she said one polytechnic like dat... .

She in turn asked me.. I told her I will be taking jamb dis year.... Immediately see the her face changes.. As in.. . Like I was not up to her standard.. . She just decided to end the chat in a funny way... I just smiled.. SMH... (and I Don graduate oo... An accountant for that matter oo from a prestigious University.. Not poly oo)... I kept wondering if all girls are like that!!

This isn't about you but about majority of Nigerian females that see marriage as a career.

menxer:
How can you say it's flawed when you have not drawn any comparison to what is obtainable in your environment?

menxer:
You are right and so are those boys that want to remain boys, it's their headache too.

There is a beauty that never fades: beautiful character.

BIAFRANFLAG:
I'm not surprised that this comment is coming from a typical Nigerian woman.

They expect a guy to do everything for them while they sit their ass at home watching movie all day.

Now, with this comment of yours. do not blame men who do not value girls education. In many advanced countries including our own South Africa (even though south Africans are still very primitive) women are holding high political offices, women are the ones who fend for their families. In south Africa, women are more valued than men because they are all hardworking more than their male folks.

Sorry for Naija lazy ass women who depend on men for everything.

Nightshift:
I actually thought she stuns in a blue film . Nollywood is crap!! Prefers Denzel Washington, Will Smith or that beautiful queen of Sheba on 'Bad Boys 2'. Or Zebrudaya, Ovuleria, Gregory Akabuogu Jegede Shokoya, Nattie and Klarus Mgbeojikwe. Although Mr Ibu and Osuofia are equally good in providing a million laughs.

ronald4lif:
Wow. This dude again? Like how does he breathes and what exactly does he assume the female to be? Just retired home after a long day and don't have your time this night but I implore you to respect yourself and grow some sense.

You're becoming a nuisance, ad nauseum, on this forum as the day goes by and I think you should take a break from writing. I can't wrap my head on this barf worthy nonsense you wrote here. Please enough with the male chauvinism. Suck it up.

After taking time to read all the comments I realized the message of the OP is lost on many.

I doubt OP is against female education but the mentality of the graduate ladies investing so much in finding "financially ok guy" to settle down with above all else, which I believe is what he observed in his environment.

Times are changing and we all need our mind sets to be reoriented and recalibrated to reflect better ways of adapting and dealing with the reality of the present, which is the primary purpose of education.

rman:
What the OP wrote is the truth... majority of educated Nigerian ladies are like this.

Nairaland ladies can attack OP all they want, but if they are less emotional and apply logic, the truth stares them in the face because several cases abound.

I have seen several...a lady that read Law, passed law school but now wants to be makeup artists. A lazy job IMO.

A lady that read English but now wants to sell hair attachments....if this is all you wanted, why waste time in university.

Majority of ladies in Nigeria see marriage as an achievement an are willing to stop trying immediately they get a man that drops the money. FACT.

I have several examples of ladies willing to resign just to stay at home under the excuse of I need to take care of my family. How are the illiterate hard working women that sells pepper and vegetables doing it that u an educated women cannot find an easier way to achieve same?

Men tend to be more purpose driven than women. Any job that has stress attached to it majority of educated ladies tend to run away from it.

Ray J ones complained of Kim k's smelly ish, so it def could happen to any girl. In fact, it happens to a lot of girls without them noticing.

Are you a kidnapper?

Stalking is real. Please get a life. Get ova yourself because I didn't notice your dumb rant I noticed the FUNNY comment I quoted. Then you come along and take this to the gutter.

Don't shake Missy just chill.

If asslicking is the opposite of what you do (share your hate/Hater) then I'm flattered.

If your brain reasons like a 9yr old then it's psychological
And I can help you.

Now fvck off on the broom you rode on

[color=deeppink]Hi all, my neighbors always look mad whenever they see me park in the driveway of my house.

I usually park on the road by the side of my house but recently I decided to park in the driveway and they are angry about it.

The mother even looked angry because I didn't park in front of her son.

I don't know what is wrong with these people; they just won't let me be.[/color]

So how many accounts on nl now dear Mr/miss classy Yet you never change.

Come back and give me another essay courtesy of Google which you always fail to accredit.

Don't come at me until I send for you. Enjoy your miserable existence and don't hate me if I decline your invitation because I know misery Love's company

MonPro:
Those days of our mothers, when women still had dignity. Those days that if you are toasting a lady she will be feeling ashamed and start drawing sketches on the ground with her legs and tell you to come see her parents.

Nowadays, na woman dey toast man for road. Our young ladies can't even cook good soup anymore, you wan spoil their fixed long nails? the only thing they know how to cook is hot water and at best indomie. They prefer Mr biggs, chicken republic, Mr fan. Civilization they call it.

HaneefahRN:
So true. They are the same ones crying abt Linda Ikeji, and the likes o. Talk abt a successful and rich woman and the next thing u hear from most male folks is, 'is she married?'

Nubian113:
Hahahaha please give me USEFUL info like the meaning to this word?

Nubian113:
If you ask me...

HaneefahRN:
When u want to compare, then consider the situations they are in too. This is Nigeria, and we all knw wht the economy is saying. Combining, housekeeping wt a job is something, and tht doesn't mean men will appreciate u for it. Some women are breadwinners of their family bt no they can never be gud enof.

Stop castigating women, that's the problem I av wt u. Many of these pple u're talking abt as majority don't even av access to basic education, av to struggle thru odds to survive, they av to contend wt being told they ain't gud enof, but at the same time a huge responsibility is placed on them. Everyone looks at women expecting perfection when men nor the society is perfect.

Nubian113:
It was for you since this thread pain you so!

Thanks for this info though.

Amberon:
You think white women don't combine both? Lol

HaneefahRN:
Abi o

I really dnt understand the basis for those stupid comparisons btw Nigerian and western women, at the end of the day it's flawed

Amberon:
I may have been wrong for generalizing but its really no news that a larger percentage of Nigerian women will humbly accept a regular pay check rather than work hard to be independent. I'm not arguing blindly. I've lived with foreigners for years and I can tell you that, just by spending a few minutes with most white girls, you'd be able to spot a glaring difference. Marriage to most Nigerian females is the highest achievement for a woman in life.

Amberon:
Yes you have a point. This isn't about feminism tho, its just reality. Its time we as women break the jinx. I want to see a Nigeria where women surpass men in many ramifications. I want a situation where women are building business empires and carving niches fror themselves, apart from just doing regular jobs.

Some women are going great tho, but I'd like to see more women come out.

HaneefahRN:
Come out clean, u're a guy and a chauvinist at tht, are u so scared to accept ur sex? Women can chose to marry anyone they want to whether rich or poor. Is it goats tht are marrying the poor guys? Educated women marry struggling guys every wkend bt u guys will always come here and cry abt women always running after rich men.
If they do, it's their choice. As an educated woman u can chose to marry a pauper it's ur choice. The roles women play in the home including financially can't be over-emphasized unless the husband is extremely rich, so stop talking like women are dummies. Irresponsible men too will also come here to run mouth.

Abt white women being exact opposites, are u saying we dnt av white women who wld rather marry rich men or are stay at home wives? Even in the schs, the rich and handsome dudes av the most female flock, so I dnt quite understand ur point. It's a matter of personality

What truth? All wht u wrote was misogynistic balderdash.
