₦airaland Forum

whenever some people try to justify anything unjustifiable, they ascribe what others have not said to them. I see this trait in a peculiar kind of people on this forum.

Where exactly did I say that we should pretend as if there is no evil in our society?

What I said was that you dont see the kind of racy scenes on Nigerian movies that you find on American TV. If some people's minds are too shallow and cant reason well, it's not my fault.

If I always have to go through 1+1 everytime before I can say 2, it becomes difficult to communicate

The US should just keep marching on irrespective of what Britain or anyone thinks of a 'black' American President.

By the way, Obama would never have stood a chance if he was to try that in present day Britain. Britain is not yet at that kind of level.

Okay, we should start letting all evil be done unashamedly so that we can have our children like majority of those abroad.

Hope that makes you happy

Oya start showing your children x-rated movies and let them watch saucy scenes so that they can experiment and become more experienced

JamaicanQT:
White men are cute just as much as black men, i must say that their tongue is damn flexi

How many such tongues have you had connections with and how many places have you been putting your mouth?

Leilah:
Thats definetely not true. Also, white men are more romantic.

what are you doing married to a black man then?

Lurker,

It's a matter of (writing)semantics.

Doing something in secret because society frowns on it is different from just having a secret way of doing things. It is not about keeping things secret - it's about the fact that it's not acceptable and so perpetrators have to hide in order to do it

Evils things are always concocted in secret!

I dont know how else to explain it to you

[quote author=Ms. Lurker link=topic=188339.msg3047882#msg3047882 date=1225989961]@JustGood, I was commentating on THAT. That logic is flawed and I appreciate you address me (as well as the others here who aren't mudslinging with you) with respect!

The problem is people only want to educate in degrees. You need to do more than just that, just because you dare not want to speak on it doesn't mean it's not happening.

Grow up. The information is there don't be too ashamed to use it.[/quote]you are the one who needs to do some growing up. You still cant understand the point I'm making there. I guess I need to re-jig the sentence.

A society which frowns on evil and does not allow evil to be displayed blatantly has some element of good in it.

by the way, have you read the whole thing in context or are you just jumping because your women's lib champion has started to beat drums?

@honeric, how we all do misunderstand ourselves online. the fans comment was never directed at you. i'm sorry if you feel it was intended for you.

truth is, the woman knows there is a reason she jumped at my post before thinking. there's a history there which you are not aware of and I have tried to avoid such women on this forum since I realise what they are.

I dont insult people unnecessarily but I always speak back if someone insults me; not a great attribute I know but I cant help it much yet. I'm trying to learn to ignore but this online thing is something i'm not yet used to

bawomolo stated

isn't the nigerian family unit breaking down with increasing urbanization.  extended family networks are becoming a thing of the past. we probably would soon end up like americans who only meet on christmas or thanksgiving

this is a big lie considering how western influences are common among the nigerian youth.  we aren't that morally superior to the west. we just hide it better.

I replied:

The Nigerian family unit is surely breaking down but there is no proof that western influence does not play a part in that.

I did not say we are morally superior to the west. You're very defensive and jumping to conclusions because what I said did not imply that. I said racy scenes are common occurences in normal western media. Most of those scenes will not appear on normal Nigerian movies - do we need to go into examples to prove this? No need

By the way, isn't it better for anything uncomely to be done in secret? Is one of the plagues of Nigeria not the fact that corruption is done openly? If something has to be conducted secretly, it shows that it is generally regarded as not acceptable

Do you understand the meaning of the part in bold?
Is that last paragraph too difficult to understand? OK. sorry I am not a primary school book writer

[quote author=Ms. Lurker link=topic=188339.msg3047608#msg3047608 date=1225986175]So telling your kids about sex, drugs, crime are considered evil things? You should want your kids to be prepared for what is out there in NIGERIA, in the UK, in AMERICA. Say what you may, you deny things and kids will get curious and go out and seek their own truth. Why shouldn't they come to you? I think this is a black issue, mainly. TALK TO YOUR CHILDREN, we are quick to want to hit them (and get mad because the laws say we can't - which is not true).

I rather inform my children truthfully than have others do it for me. At least I know I've done all I could do. Keeping things a secret works for so long the truth will come out and be just - if not more, destructive.[/quote]Fans arriving. . .

Have you read through my posts before opening your gullet?

Baby Jinx:
Speaking of idiocy and erratic point making, this is not what you were advocating. Your point was that even though us Nigerians are doing these "Evil things like the westerners", we are better than them because we choose to do it in secret. . . it is comfortable to do it in secret. This you block head is what I called you out on, this does not make us a good society, it makes us Hypocrites. Why not bring it out in the open and address it instead of doing it secret, wiping our mouth before then coming out in public. Does that make any sense to you. . . you thick headed silly, silly man? Does it? Goodness, it is better to hide the ills and pretend we are good than talk about it openly and address it. . . who thinks like that??

Again with you completely off point examples! Thieves planning in secret is different from people knowing thieves plan in secret and pretending they don't know because doing otherwise makes them uncomfortable.

Ay! You just keep burying that ya head in the sand, eh? No wonder you can't "listen" to reason. . . you ears are filled it granite.

Perpetuate evil? Sweetie, perpetuating evil is KNOWING it is happening yet looking the other way and pretending it isn't. Perpetuating evil is being relived it is done in secret.

Rotflmao! Me thinks somebody needs take their own advice!!

Now I can safely conclude that this is a mad woman who is incapable of thinking straight. Baby Jinxed, you're already jinxed in the department of thinking.

You have decided to twist everything I said meaninglessly in the hope that you will have some of your fans clapping for you. However, I'm sure some of your fans will see the stupidity of your attempt to twist and turn things just because you cant use your brain

sexyLeamon:
the topic is not address as Nigerians what do you think. eventhough it is a Nigerian website, different tribes come here as well. and I think it is better to stick to the topic then going offtopic

I take it you meant NATIONALITIES.

Anyway, look at my posts and check who's going off tangent here

JamaicanQT:
NIGERIAN MEN THAT I DATED ARE ALL YORUBA THEY ARE KOOL APART FROM BEING VERY CONTROLING AND JEALOUS AT TIMES, THE GOOD THING ABOUT THEM IS THAT THEY ARENT AFFRAID TO DROP A MINIMUM OF £100 WHENEVER WE GO SHOPPING PLUS THEY LOVE TO SHOP IN NAME BRAND STORE

How many of them have you really dated?

Gamine:
Scare tactics??

Do i look white?

you look like a fighter jet

they can harm society if they keep preaching their sodomy

@Gamine

I was asking if the views of the white people always have to be right. So if they call MIXED people black, it has to be right?

sexyLeamon:
but the topic here is not about nigerians is it?

and that means Nigerian views cannot be aired?

you may wish to take the topic to Black American forums if you want only Black American views

Besides, the topic has nothing to do with nationality but with ascribing colour, race, groupings to people.

nike4luv:
THAT BULL, what about kids raised in other parts of Africa, why has it got to be Nigeria. It depends on the parenting, if a child is born and bread a tout, thats what he/she is going to become regardless of where you brought them up. are you trying to say you are better than us because you were raised in Nigeria?

nike, dont take everything in absolute terms and get defensive.

Have you thought about the fact that generalisations often involve the principle of 'all things being equal'?

calm down my sister

I see that madness runs in the blood of this animal baby Jinx.

Why do thieves plan in secret? Why is every bad thing perperated in secret?

Seeing as you are unable to think rationally, i'll break it down for you biscuit brain. If a society frowns on evil and evil people try to hide and cover their deeds, it shows that the society has some good in it. A society which allows evil to be perpetrated openly is an evil society in itself.

Now go back and apply that to my post, then read the post I was responding to and it just might start making some sense to you.

KarmaMod:
Um where did Nigeria come from in this discussion?

I assumed that this is a forum for Nigerians, and their friends, to discuss. Naturally, every discussion should take a Nigerian slant. Or perhaps you forgot it's a forum dedicated to Nigerians

[quote author=Sammy107_d link=topic=192191.msg3046703#msg3046703 date=1225976971]for real??[/quote]What is GLUE?

hopefully this does not change for worse to accept sodomites as legal.
It's strange anyway becos the US/UK were egging Nigeria to punish drug pushers but they are considering legalising cannabis (Igbo).

Nigeria should stop following these people
