Lol because am a man, when I have attention I will pretend am alright..but then i will walk heads up taking a quick glance at every pretty ass that walk by...like what is she wearing?

Because I'm a man, when I lock my keys in the car I will fiddle with a wire clothes hanger and ignore your suggestions that we call a road service until long after hypothermia has set in.

Because I'm a man, when the car isn't running very well, I will pop the hood and stare at the engine as if I know what I'm looking at. If another man shows up, one of us will say to the other, "I used to be able to fix these things, but now with all these computers and everything, I wouldn't know where to start." We will then drink beer.

Because I'm a man, when I catch a cold I need someone to bring me soup and take care of me while I lie in bed and moan. You never get as sick as I do, so for you this isn't an issue.


Because I'm a man, when one of our appliances stops working I will insist on taking it apart, despite evidence that this will just cost me twice as much once the repair person gets here and has to put it back together.

Because I'm a man, I must hold the television remote control in my hand while I watch TV. If the thing has been misplaced, I may miss a whole show looking for it (though one time I was able to survive by holding a calculator).

Because I'm a man, I don't think we're all that lost, and no, I don't think we should stop and ask someone. Why would you listen to a complete stranger -- I mean, how the hell could he know where we're going?

Because I'm a man, there is no need to ask me what I'm thinking about. The answer is always either sex or football , though I have to make up something else when you ask so don't.

Because I'm a man, you don't have to ask me if I liked the movie. Chances are, if you're crying at the end of it, I didn't.


Because I'm a man, I think what you're wearing is fine. I thought what you were wearing five minutes ago was fine, too. Either pair of shoes is fine. With the belt or without it looks fine. Your hair is fine. You look fine. Can we just go now?

Because I'm a man, and this is, after all, this is modern era,I will share equally in the housework. You just do the laundry, the cooking, the gardening, the cleaning, and the dishes. I'll do the rest.

THIS HAS BEEN A PUBLIC SERVICE MESSAGE FOR WOMEN, TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE MALE ANIMAL.

activelyA:
U have come again oo

All about the ladies and what they should and not do...

Why should it be the ladies needing an increament in "market value", why not both male and female?

Remember what I called you??


Yet another thread displaying it.
Later you will say you are not a chauvinist

Because ur the only ones complaining when all ur friends are done with marriage

I think now many would agree that after fegurson, Wenger is the next best.
Many who put mouriho after wenger, do so base on trophies_which for me is pretty one directional analysis.

To stay in this business and to be considered the best takes years to master.There is ups and down. The best managers are those who through hard period, are able to mentain a level of consistency.

smada13:
people with their hypocritical and double life style....they condemn people but do the same thing for which they are condemning.....what is the guy that saw him and put it on Twitter doing there too when his mates are with their wives at home and strategizing how tinz will be better for him and his family....

#sillypeople......

What is with ur head?
What is with ur head eh?
What is with ur head and not understanding that public figures are held to the highest moral standard...not to be compared with average citizen.

Where have u seen Obama clubbing?

I beg to disagree. The pope can request that plane anytime he wants. It is reserved for him. In essence, the state itself has bought a jet for the pope.

Now compare that with a pastor preaching a sermon in one city on saturday night, and another sermon in another time zone the next morning. Obviously driving is not feasible. Neither can you carry all your staff for 4-5 hour wait at the airport every weekend, assuming you can even find a flight when you want. Have you ever flown a 12 hour flight before? What evangelist is going to try a world missions trip lasting a 3 months flying every two to three days. Even Reinhard Bonnke, on moving to the US, needed a private jet. God so kind, he found a preacher that gave it to him for free!

Are there carnal christians and pastors that lust after jets because it is a status symbol? Yeah. But there are also carnal christians, like you, who think all there is to a plane is the status symbol. The plane is a tool. Its very effective for Ceos, vps , presidents because they can get from point a to point b quickly. . And it is a very effective tool for moving significant ministry resources from point a to point b at a moments notice

You rant in ignorance!
the likes of Benny inn, have been in the evangelical ministries since I was a kid. Note! "evangelical" I say.
If this ur argument should hold, they should be practically living in the sky. How many countries has this Nigerian so called pastor travel. if you love me feed my flocks. That is the commission for all christians leaders.

With Chelsea endless slipping, attention now is turning to traditional rivalry. This was how the premiership was before those noisy blues came with their rant. Classic rivalry with EPL title in site.

Anyhow I think strongly gunners will take this one 3_1
And if my calculation is right gunner should be winning the league right about now (this season)

All hail the goons!

Op you tried but i am not tired of anything!

Stop mking urself look larger. Nobody is talking abt you. The post is meant for those its meant for.

vizkiz:
just because she's gat good attitude doesn't mean I should marry a vulture

To those guys quoting me to type trash. Na me talk say make una go marry fugly girls abi?

I just typed what I am gonna do mehn, an educated girl is "beauty" she is successful in her business which means she's gat brains

So what else do I need apart from a pretty girl who knows what she truly wants, forget about the manner, she go learn

Make I come go marry illitrate cuz she dey always wash cloth Seems you guys think marriage is all about house chores abi? FOOLS

U don't have to insult anyone to get ur point across. Women come in varieties and they are all beautiful in their respective ways. As a man ive come to see that a homely and submissive woman has his kind of appeal. I believe thats wat our brother is kind of realising. Moreover its not a must that both parties must be working. As a man i think am more than strong enough to provide for my family without needing my wife to work if thats what you place a womans importance on. The concept of a modern woman doesnt alway relate with "work"

TI1919:
With many years of frustration

Depend on ur definition of frustration.

When Arsène Wenger arrived at Highbury in October 1996, Arsenal's fans wondered who on earth he was.
A virtual unknown in English football, Wenger had much to prove when he moved from Japan to north London. But if any doubts lingered over his appointment, the Frenchman soon dispelled them.
As his players soon realised, Wenger was a different breed of manager. The old-school habits of throwing teacups and tantrums were not for him. Instead the squad grew accustomed to nutrition and new training methods.
As his players soon realised, Wenger was a different breed of manager. The old-school habits of throwing teacups and tantrums were not for him. Instead the squad grew accustomed to nutrition and new training methods. Off the pitch Wenger has been just as effective, taking an active role in the building of a new training ground and the Emirates Stadium project.
Results on the pitch vindicated the new man in charge. Wenger won the Double in his first full season in charge and almost repeated the feat a year later. A couple of agonising Cup Final defeats followed but Wenger doubled up again in 2002, clinching the title at Old Trafford.
A second successive FA Cup triumph followed in 2003 and then perhaps Wenger's greatest achievement, leading his team to an unbeaten title season and, ultimately, a league record of 49 games without defeat. Yet another FA Cup win followed in 2005 as the Frenchman continued to rack up the trophies. And of course Wenger took Arsenal to within a whisker of Champions League glory a year later.
But Wenger has always been about more than results and trophies. He has transformed relative unknowns into world-class stars - Vieira, Petit, Anelka, Ljungberg and Fabregas for example. And he will always be remembered for turning Thierry Henry from a talented winger into a superstar striker.
But perhaps Wenger's greatest legacy will be the style with which he has brought success. Many clubs have won trophies, but few have managed it with the panache of Arsène's Arsenal. When appointed in September 1996 it was a case of 'Arsène Who?' These days, Wenger ranks alongside Herbert Chapman as Arsenal's greatest manager.

The man never finish to wash yansh with kettle.when he through we go give out list.

Tho this be madness, but there is a method to it.

Vinshu:
We need that revolution whereby women would be respected equally like men. Women are not respected by the society today. Women are at the back of the line.

Even in some nations there is no franchise. Women are not allowed to vote. A guy does something nasty..it's OK. .a girl does same thing. It's a taboo

I dont see you women crying for equall numbers of women to be deployed to the north to fight the growing insurgency. All you know is office equality.
This is why you can never be equal to men.

Who's counting.

When it comes to women in modern era, progress is the operative word. According to the Free Online Dictionary, progress means “steady improvement, as of a society or civilization.” It’s a relative term—how to improve something is entirely subjective. Yet when we talk about women, in 21st century progress is never defined, debated, or qualified. The topic is misleading right out of the gate.

For the past several decades, it has been widely accepted that women in usually, if not always, get the short end of the stick. According to feminists, women, like blacks, have been oppressed for centuries. We’re told not enough progress has been made and that society still hasn’t leveled the playing field. This philosophy is so embedded in our culture that we don’t question it. We don’t even label it “feminist” to think this way; it’s just commonplace to believe women suffer discrimination. Turn on the television, flip through a magazine, or search the airwaves, and you’ll be deluged with stories about women who wonder how their needs can best be met, how they can balance their lives better, or how they can deal with the myriad of problems and dangers they face. Women’s grievances dominate the conversation.



But grievances are like crabgrass: the more heat they get, the more it spreads. And that is precisely what has happened with modern women. Feminist organizations even promote the growth of grievances by consciousness-raising sessions, where feminists exchange tales of how badly some man treated them and what government’s role should be as compensation. On the meantime, buried beneath the surface lies the truth. The 21st century women are the most fortunate set of women who have ever lived. No one has it better. No one.
This is a new twist to an old debate, one that elicits shock. It even sounds wrong on a piece of paper or rolling off the tongue. That’s because the world have been conditioned to believe otherwise. Millions of women think progress requires women’s liberation—from men, from children, from society’s constructs, from just about anything that makes women feel morally obligated to someone or something other than themselves.

The saddest part of this misguided view of human nature is that it hasn’t made women any happier. In fact, it has done just the opposite. According to a 2007 report from the National Bureau of Economic Research, “As women have gained more freedom, more education, and more power, they have become less happy.”1

The authors of this report, Betsey Stevenson and Justin Wolfers, suggest that “the salience of the women’s movement fueled elation in the 1970s that has dissipated in the ensuing years.”2 That isn’t surprising. Most women in America are a right-of-center bunch and don’t want what women on the left want. The majority of women in this country are traditionalists and don’t want to change America.

Feminists do. They’ve spent decades trying to convince women that the world n needs to accommodate them so women can be unshackled, free, and presumably happy. It has been an alluring concept. Certainly women like the idea of being free from their responsibilities from time to time; they may like the thought of being liberated from husbands and children occasionally. Who wouldn’t? Marriage and motherhood require a lot of work and sacrifice. But women don’t want to be “free” if being free means being single, dependent on the government, or even being a big-shot powerhouse with no time for family. Most women in America want what any reasonable person wants: a family to love and—yes—even depend on.

The female left wants something else. “As we approach a new century—and a new millennium—it’s the men who have to break through to a new way of thinking about themselves and society,” wrote Betty Friedan in the 2001 edition of her 1963landmark book, The Feminine Mystique. “Too bad women can’t do it for them, or go much further without them. Because it’s awesome to consider how women have changed the possibili- ties of our lives since we broke through the feminine mystique only two generations ago.”3

Those powerful words helped to shape a generation of American women. Implicit in Friedan’s worldview—the worldview so many women have been raised to accept—is the notion that women are oppressed, and that men are the ones who need to change. Friedan believed the odds are severely stacked against women. The only way to eliminate female oppression, she said, is to change men and society—to create a different America, one that’s more fair and just to women.

Those who are tempted to write off Betty Friedan as a has- been shouldn’t. Her words live on in the minds of influential female leftists whose goals are no different from Friedan’s. In November 2009, Maria Shriver, along with the left-wing think
tank Center for American Progress, produced an exhaustive, four-hundred-page document titled The Shriver Report: A Woman’s Nation Changes Everything. Its fundamental argument is that government policies and laws “continue to rely on an outdated model of the American family.”4

Shriver and company—which includes Oprah Winfrey—seek to remedy this supposed problem by proving we are no longer living in a “man’s world” but are now living in a “woman’s world.” They consider the traditional family a thing of the past, which is fine with them because what feminists really want is a matriarchy. And now they’ve admitted it. The Shriver Report boasted, “As we move into this phase we’re calling a woman’s nation, women can turn their pivotal role as wage-earners, as consumers, as bosses, as opinion-shapers, as co-equal partners in whatever we do into a potent force for change. Emergent economic power gives women a new seat at the table.

timonski:
sir, what do you mean by supernatural

relating to, or being above or beyond what is natural; unexplainable by natural law or phenomena; abnormal.

dalaman:
Therr are a thousand and one cases yet you can't provide the name of one verifiable hospital that pronounced a person dead and was resurrected by being prayed upon? Are you trolling?

So you can go verify?
You get his point.
Can you deny that such supernatural experience don't occur time after time.

Anas09:
I want the Nl atheist to explain Conciousness to me. If there's no God, meaning there's no supernatural, and no afterlife, how can u explain a situation where someone dies, i mean clinically dead. Doctors confirms him dead. No pulse, no brain activites for hours, only for the person to jeck back to life to tell about his/her experience in the other world? They meet a relative or friend who had died long ago, who gives them information for his/her living folk, when he jerks back, when verified the info is found to be true? How was the dead guy able to retain that info wen his brian activities had stopped? This happened to my elder sister. She had etopic pregnancy that killed her, but she jerked back to life abt two or three hrs later to tell us abt our uncle who died months back pursuing her with a cane to go back, and he told her something for his immidiate family which was verified.
Secondly, I personally dream events before they happen. I mean, vivdly, clearly detailed before they happen. This is not a case of what you saw or experienced before. I mean future.
Early last month I dreamed, a contract am handling got terminated, because in real life here, the project manager had inflated the amount, I knew abt it, but said nothing. Last week, it was discovered, the guy is fired and my contract terminated.
Pls explain this to me.

there is God final!
And its not subject to argument.

Going places already.
Aboooki b like_ were is that my blue kettle I use to wash my yash yesterday. Anyone seen my blue kettle?
Anyone..?

Congrats beta pikin. Again congrats.

My friends Dad was kidnapped 3days ago Plssssssss I'm warning Buhari too if anything happens to My friends Dad I'll burn Nigeria...

gj22:
Lol. I am guy dude. It was kinda easy (in those days) to manage multiple wives. Women were very submissive then. They did whatever their husbands told them to. Also, it was kinda the price to pay for wanting a party every night

Don't talk like we are doing them a favour and also, more wives meant more children which was a big deal then cos they could help in the farm or some sh1t like that.

I see your in the mood to sniff ass..
So you going to come here and rubbish the works of Chinua Achebe_ and all his effort to educated you about your culture before now right. I guess am right about you being a woman .Didn't you see how okonkwo often struggle with his wives? Where is the "always submissive" there.
The nature of a woman has always been constant as well as a man.
A good wife is hard to find is true now as it is then.
So don't try to defend what you don't know.

And go back back and read my post. I never said we were doing women a favour. I simply said neither parties won in the arrangement but society_Contrary to the general believe that men had always benefited from polygyny more.

What is forgotten by logician's is that single words express very complex reductions in thinking. When the appropriate words are used in a thesis a person is able to traverse an immense galaxy of concepts in a few short sentences. Logic related to human is already ill-equipped to convey the complexity of human experience.

johnydon22:

You see one thing with theistic arguments is dishonesty..

The constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria never said "Believe me or i punish you, the constitution simply lays out out don'ts that are in conformity with societal norms.

But then on the other hand..
Christians say Believe my God or burn in hell... This is a pure threat because belief in a God is not a societal norm.

Isis say believe in Allah or we chop off your head... sounds similar? oh yes because it is exactly what you are doing as a Christian, employing the threat of violence to ensure unwillful coercion into your beliefs.

When a belief lays out a threat of violence and torture to instill submission, it is a threat and should be treated as one.... Chew on that...

You are right! The constitution never said believe in me or I will punish you.
What it said was if you kill, steal,...etc. I will punish.
Which is pretty much what God said also if you follow the general theme of the bible.
Death has always being as a consequence for sin.


God is a spirit, and this spirit is the word,
if you believe this word, then you believe in God.
The word is then the law of sin and death.
Thou shall not kill, what is it about that, that is so evil,
Thou shall love thy neighbour as thyself. Are these not the word of God? Which we christian say is God himself.

Out with intelligent mind, in with aboooki, with kettle to wash their yansh.
Effortlessly adesina is gone..now my mother.

And they say my gej was clueless.
Nigerians you truly deserve aboooki leadership.

keenn:
Just as hunger, thirst, love, pain, pleasure...is ubiquitous among races, likewise has man yearn to know more and to placate things he thinks he can't control...rainbow, sunrise and sunset, rainfall, shadow, comets travel,bush fires, the moon periodic shape, arrangements of celestial bodies, seasons, lifeless body, dreams ...were looked with awe by people of all races. The quest to understand and pacify what isn't there lead to the God concept

Did u say telepathy?

My brother, nobody talks to anybody.

Ketamine is a drug that upon administering u will claim you've experienced devine encounter.

Like hunger, love, desired..e.t.c..don't u think that God also, was pre_installed in man (permitte my term).
