Gurgle:
lol but are you guys still wandering?

and its not all of you who possess those qualities. meanwhile im sure I could find an Igbo guy who does

Sorry but im not moved!

how similar are hausa and Fulani btw? culturally and linguistically?

I always wondered but I cant find an answer

the nomadic ones are still very much present, you'll always hear abt dem in the news causing trouble for local farmers in states like benue and other violent stuffs.

hausa and fulani are on entirely different spectrums both culturally and linguistically,especially the dialect. an average hausa man has absolutely no idea how to speak or even comprehend the language.



it just happens dat some of the more popular fulani cultures are either extremely weird or probably illegal (or both).e.g incentous marriages and shādi (marriage rites), this involves the prospective husband getting seriously flogged in the abdominal region in front of the whole town. anyone who dies is considered weak and hencw wasnt deserving of the bride.


and so wen they become civilised, the only culture dat even remotely mirrors theirs and is accepted as the norm is that of the hausa people, so they adopt a lot of the hausa culture as theirs.

needless to say,religion also comes into play, & since the fulani are not muslims they try to blend in with the rest of society and gain acceptance,hence why most adhere to islam as it is the dominant religion in the north.



And of coz igbo guys try small, but when compared to us, they don't even come close. and 95% of the fulani do possess those features.

Gurgle:
ishiagu? that printed shirt with lions on it, that Igbo men wear for special occasions

yeah never. I only see you guys on the TV, or on bank notes...

what accent do you have? Fulani, Lagosian?

yeah not a word. its very bad Im trying to learn but to no avail

more like a neutral accent, due growing up amongst non-native hausa speakers.

i speak fluent hausa, comprehend the fulani dialect but i can only reply in english or hausa.

and as for meeting a fulani guy, dat one must happen, we are the ultimate wanderers afterall.

Gurgle:
I see.

yeah its just how I feel! was discussing it with someone today, she said its not necessary for her but it is for me!

cant imagine grooving to flavour in my living room and the guy asking "what does it mean??" (although I myself don't know what it means ) no way!

cant wait to start ironing his Isi agu for him!

I wanted to add Fulanis to my list of "almost but not quites" but I don't think I have ever seen any of you in real life, youre like mythical creatures to me

anyway it seems like you still have plenty of Igbo girls to choose from so fear not!!

i have no idea what isi agu means but well....


FOR REALS?
u've never come across a fulani dude b4?


while i dont look like the stereotypical fulani guy


I THINK I MIGHT PASS FOR AN IGBO IF I WANTED.


THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THE LACK OF THE IGBO ACCENT.

BUT WAIT O

SO U DON'T SPEAK OR UNDERSTAND IGBO?

Gurgle:
fair enough. "OH"?

i just nearly forgot to say wat my religion was, hence OH!!!!!!!!


going back to ur earlier comments on the thread, u seem fixated on igbo guys.
Haba!!!!!!!
giv we outsiders a chance na....

agbo lived in the town of logun which is not far from Ibadan....




oh God why did i have to grow up?

Gurgle:
seriously?

but is your family particularly open-minded or is it a norm now?

I thought you guys would be completely against it

wait what is your religion if you don't mind me asking

while i wouldnt go as far as saying that inter-ethnic marriage is the new norm, it is more common-place now than it was before and more people seem to be embracing the idea. and my family has never set an ethnic embargo on anyone, "marry from wherever u want, just dont bring in troublesome characters".






OH, & I'm a christian.

Gurgle:
no; do I sound like I am?

nope, na just plain curiousity.

Gurgle:
ok. so if you married an Igbo/ southerner your family wouldn't mind at all?

on the contrary, someone like my dad is gonna be over the moon.

but gurgle ,are you married or something ?

Gurgle:
that's good. where did they marry from?

plateau state....
abuja(if it counts as a state to u)

PEST ZONE: a whole new level

life-support mechanism

Gurgle:
whattt really

I thought you guys don't like dating outsiders. are you fully Fulani or mixed with hausa, kanuri

Mixed
(sounds weird wen u put it lyk dat)



but as for the "not dating outsiders" part

itz a rapidly fading culture(hallelujah!!!!!!)


of all my elder siblings, no one married a fulani wife or husband.

spicy244:
Wot if I do?

den u will should be ready to sit on a long thing

Gurgle:
LOL but which one are you?

its not compulsory to date them

of coz itz not compulsory to date them but itz not like you get to choose who u fall for. those just happen to be igbo girls and i dont know why.



I'M FULANI BY THE WAY.
