They are not sold as pads. They are entirely different from pads. The truth is that they are not commonly used. The percentage of Nigerian women that can splurge extra on pantyliners every month are not enough to make the average man know it.

So, Sharon was right then. Nigerian women, or women around this part of the world, In general, are not as aware of liners as their western counterparts.

I even had to go and check the one my sister used a while ago... Looks padish to me. Can't find the wrapper, when I go out later I would ask the seller. They are pretty damn expensive so, I want to know!!!

On a side note, I like the choice of words used here! Would like to see works you've done other than write-ups on nairaland. Not practicing to become a politician, are you? ..

"The percentage of Nigerian women that can splurge extra on pantyliners every month are not enough to make the average man know it."

Nicely crafted and very impressive poco... very impressive. Within a short time for that matter!!

Let agree that God's dimension is incomprehensible. However, everything you're preaching here is against the teachings of the bible. God, time and time again, can be interacted with. Infact, Jesus claimed God can be known. "He who has seen me has seen the Father." In the Bible, God interacts with men, Men interact with God(See Jacob and the wrestle with God). God, is in a place called heaven, which of course has gates. God is spirit, Angels are spirit, Demons are spirit. The fact that God spirit, is different from angel spirit, and demon spirit, as well as Son spirit and Holyspirit spirit, tells us that God is confined to natural laws of the spirit world. Men can tell the difference between God, Son, Holy spirit, Angel, and Demon.

there is literally interactions between these entities and man all over the bible. So, how then can you say that man cannot comprehend higher dimensions? Moses saw the hand of God for fvcks sake!

1Sharon:
You're very stupid. I can see the word "pick-me" has come to Nigeria.

Who wants to be picked by your stupid primitive men? Look at the title of this thread.

Have mercy upon us!
Cease fire, cease fire. I repeat, cease fire.

Do you really have to share that?

Do you know how many millions of people including women don't know?

Albertone:
She's not based in Nigeria. She's in UK so.
When she was in Nigeria, liners might not be common. It's probably when she went abroad that she got to know what panty liners are.

Needless to say that she still holds the notion that liners aren't common in Nigeria.

Which is actually true. I've never heard of liners in my life. I do buy pads for my baby sister.. My mum is pretty open about this stuff, and this is the very first time, in my life, I'm hearing of liners. Very very first time...

Maybe its sold as pads in the country too. Now, I have to google what doesn't even concern me.

Acidosis:
Interesting read. I also believe that many of these diseases (including diabetes) are largely hereditary.

hereditary is a factor too.

No be sugar dey cause diabetes, Olodo.

Eating sugar (strictly speaking) does not directly cause diabetes. It does not cause type 1 diabetes . It does not cause type 2 diabetes. It does not cause gestational diabetes . It does not cause LADA or MODY or any other type of diabetes.
You cannot eat too many candy bars and make your way to a diabetes diagnosis instantly. No matter how many jokes and myths and stigmas abound, sugar does not directly cause diabetes.
https://diabetesstrong.com/does-eating-sugar-cause-diabetes/

The exact cause of diabetes is not known, however, Sugar is a key play in the development of the disease. 500 million people are currently living with diabetes around the world, that should indicate to you that our paradigm shift from protein to carbohydrate foods should be greatly considered. People who consume more sugar are more likely to develop Type 2 diabetes.

The relationship between Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, and Gestational diabetes is the bodies inability to produce enough insulin, or that the body cells reject insulin. Resulting in excess blood sugar. The high blood sugar is what starts to do damage to body cells-begining with destruction of nervous tissue in lower parts of the body where the rate of blood flow is reduced.

That said, diabetes is caused by a combo of mechanisms, environmental, genetics, and lifestyle.

While this

You cannot eat too many candy bars and make your way to a diabetes diagnosis instantly. No matter how many jokes and myths and stigmas abound, sugar does not directly cause diabetes.

is true, it is still bad advice, given the correlations between sugar intake and diabetes.

Carbohydrate are sugars, yes, sugar is sugar, but not all sugars are sugars. Pardon the pun
codemaniacs
There are different types of carbohydrates; which are classified based on their complexity (the number of sugar chains).

In line with the context of the thread, we consume three types of carbohydrate:
1. Starch: [/b]This is what we get from rice, beans, millet, corns, etc.
2. [b]Cellulose: [/b]This is what we get from eating green leaves.
3. [b]glycogen: This type of carbohydrate is found in your chicken, beef, pig, etc.

If you eat any of the above, you'd certainly put on weight, but, they won't harm you like the other type of sugar I am about to mention.

***Note: Eating Rice, Pasta, or Indomie, is not different from drinking coke. More on that later

Now, you see the three I mentioned above, starch, cellulose, and glycogen? They are called Complex sugars. The body takes about 20 minutes to 2 hours to break them down and absorb them. What about fruit juice and coke?

There exist another type of Carbohydrate that we get from coke, Pepsi, sweets, etc. This is the SUGAR causing the commotion now. This particular type of carbohydrate is called gotten from sugar cane. It is called Sucrose. Sucrose is a SIMPLE SUGAR.

Now, we have two types of sugars,
1. Simple sugars: Simple sugars are easy to digest and absorb. Examples, sucrose as seen in sugar cane, fructose as seen in honey, maltose, as seen in milk, glucose as you get from sugar cane, honey, milk, energy drink, alcohol, Rice, spaghetti, Indomie, Pasta some wine, and even fruits. All o them listed in this category raise your blood sugar to extreme levels and quickly. They are harmful.. Mango juice, orange juice, watermelon juice, pawpaw juice, and all other fruit juices will kill you just like sugar cubes will. @IzzyArts
The key word to watch out for is juice. So, on the contrary, Mango fruit, Pawpaw fruit, Orange fruit, will not kill you as fast. I also should mention fatty acid or fat from chicken and meat are deadly too.(GLYCOGEN carbohydrate )

2. Complex Sugars : They are difficult to digest. Examples, Yam, Cassava, pounded yam, fufu, boiled corn, in general starch, then vegetables (Cellulose Carbohydrate).. Eat as much as you like, as long as you do not have any genetic predisposition to diabetes, then you are safe… Why? Imagine I mixed 1 bag of rice with a bag of beans, then say you should handpick the rice from the beans. It is a difficult task, right? That's how the digestive system suffers when you eat complex sugars… Inorder words, it takes longer for the sugar in this category to enter the blood.

***note: if you fry yam, potatoes, or others mentioned above, then, you will get diabetes.

So, In a sense, you are right to say all sugar is sugar, because, sucrose, fructose, glucose, galactose, maltose, lactose, and other carbohydrate polymers are all called SUGARS. But are all sugars harmful? YES and NO. Yes because, all sugars are converted to glucose. NO, because, some sugars take longer to digest than others.


Now, there is one more form of carbohydrate I should mention, That is fibre.. subscribe to know more!

, OceanRed,
@ judedwriter, as you grow older, it'll be better to minimize sweat fruits because sugar...

@Usefulsense: vegetagles contain a type of sugar called cellulose. The body cannot digest them. They are safe but, may not provide much energy.

blaquebelle, LeyeWrites, : Yes, malt can give you diabetes, just like coke. The body can break it down easily.. Normal sugars should be unprocessed carbohydrates.

caprini1; sugar is too watery? e go shock you! even diet coke is dangerous!

Nah we brings juice produced from our finest fruits and alcoholic beverages from our finest palm source. Be expecting finished goods from us . Switzerland , UAE and world bank owns our gold and cocoa.

Seems China may be adding to that list.

CuriousMind2022, you see, you did not tell us the genesis of the situation. In one way, you'd have manipulated all of us to think your wife is the devil.. You see why people don't listen to men when they are under psychological duress?

Sorry for what you went through with masturbation and soft porn. Addicts often do not consider themselves addicted, so, it wasn't entirely your fault. The flesh easily overpowers the mind. Have you communicated with your wife?

TenQ:

What does the word RELATIVELY mean in the quote above?

same bla blu bla blu.... How do you know this?

CuriousMind2022:
It's a known fact that most Nigerian girls marry who they consider ready for marriage, and not necessarily who they love. I am exactly in that dilemma and the question I am asking myself is whether I should continue in this loveless marriage or slowly drift and walk away.

I don't usually pity men in these conditions. After what a pastor did to my friend not too long ago in the university, I usually say Ntoor for this kind case. Because, some of you know deep down that the babe isn't into you, but pressure saaaaaaaaaaaaa..... Promises upon promises, hope you didn't promise to take her abroad for studies too? .

I'd follow Klass99 advice if I were in your shoes, sha. I'm not married, but if somebody really likes you, giving them a taste of their own medicine works. One gurl like that haf used it on me (thunder fire her where ever she is), and I too have used it on others. Most of the time it works. ..

Delightsome2023:
alright thank you dear..
I'll open up a thread just between me and you so we could adumbrate on some thoughtful issues most especially on the scriptures and Christianity, general concept of life and topical issues like homosexuality.
Cos I observe most times you debate and wrestle with the scriptures and argue erroneously.
So I'll like to direct you to the paths of truth.
Dunno if you'll be responding to it

Indeed. I have prayed for our beloved Kobo countless times, beckoned them to change their ways, and adopt the teachings of the one true God, that is, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. I, Kkins, hereby join my faith with yours that our faiths combined---may draw in the love of our lord Jesus Christ over the life of Kobo.

I've known Kobo for a very long time, since back when children used to proudly sing, "O my Hoe, O my Hoe." They had always been fervent in serving the lord, but something changed along the line. Maybe their integration with western society tainted the-once blossoming glory of the lord. Now, he goes about preaching adulterated versions of the message taught to us on the mount of Calvary; tolerance for homosexuality, divorce, not using the rod, and many others. Please mention me when you create the thread that I might join you to deliver our lost brethren. Thank you, and the heavens bless you with the knowledge and wisdom needed to exorcise the demons that dwell in the temple of God in Kobo.

TenQ:
Within our 3D universe
1. Entropy NEVER decreases: thus there must be a time when it was minimum. This means the the 3D universe came to an existence art a point in time
2. Infinite Regress of Cause and Effect is impossible in our 3D universe
3. Every Law of Physics and Chemistry we know came AFTER the INFLATION of the Universe

The implication is that SOMEONE/SOMETHING out of the 3D Universe who/which existed before the Laws of Physics and Chemistry created this Universe.
We call this SOMEONE/SOMETHING the "Uncaused First-Cause of Everything": aka God!

A dummy will proceed to ask "Which God?"

Your argument then conflicts an already solidified argument:

Since entropy is a form of energy measurement, and knowing that energy has no birthday and no funeral date, we can ask the question,

WHAT TIME DID GOD STEP IN? What is God's relationship in the grassroot fundamental principles that allow a universe to form and exist..

TenQ:
Your question make no sense!
We have limited perception of things, thus some things will appear in relative form to us

Then how do you know God created all dimensions?

Maynmann:
when we discuss dimensions in the context of physical existence, we generally refer to the spatial dimensions that we can observe and interact with. These dimensions include length, width, and height, which collectively make up three-dimensional space.

While it is possible to speculate about the existence of additional dimensions beyond what we can perceive, there is currently no scientific evidence to support the notion that humans or any other living beings exist in lower or more than three spatial dimensions. The three-dimensional framework has been successfully applied in numerous scientific disciplines, including biology, physics, and engineering, to understand the structure and behavior of living organisms.

one-dimensional space would lack the necessary dimensions and structure to accommodate such complex life forms.

string theory?

TenQ:
I've answered this your question:


Relatively to us God is in the Highest Dimension because
In God ALL our dimensions exist!

If God is described as a physical being, then the question you asked could make sense. If God is NOT a physical being, then every object in ALL dimensions can exist INSIDE Him.

I said:

Acts 17:28:
"For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring."

Relatively to us, God is in the Highest Dimension because
In God ALL our dimensions exist!

What about RELATIVE TO GOD?

TenQ:
The last paragraph of my post you quoted says:


If God is indeed the Creator of Everything, then there cannot be any other Dimensions higher than His

But Dimensions are the dwelling place of anything that can exist..
Since, we know that God has essence, which means he is made of "substance, " then this "substance" must dwell in some of "being" defined by parameters (let's assume its beyond our perceptive capabilities), that will most likely be called something even if it is not "dimensions". Let's not forget that Heaven is the abode of God, considering the distinction between heaven and earth, it means heaven has boundaries different from and does not inter-mingle with the boundaries of earth.

If God is confined to those boundaries, then it isn't far-fetched to proclaim that God Himself may be oblivious to spheres of existence beyond dimensions of the earth and heaven .

If God is the singularity, then God cannot be the Christian God. He must be the God of the Buddhist. Because, If you're correct, then God didn't create anything per se, instead, He was the "stuff" that stuffs were made from.

TenQ:
The evil in these people is amazing!
They want to avoid to talk but throw jabs.
Once that see that your questions will expose them, they scram after their tantrums.

The questions were simple:
1. It is possible to have a one-dimensional (1D) space within a two-dimensional (2D) space?
Is it possible to have a two-dimensional (2D) space within a three-dimensional (3D) space?


2. If the above is possible,
Is it possible for a hypothetical point object in a 1D space know detect by any means that he it is within a 2D or 3D or nD space?

If the question 1 is impossible, can you explain why?



What could be difficult in this?

But, you already defined subsequent dimensions as the cumulation of prior dimensions, isn't it? So, why are you asking the questions above? Even so, your definitions of the Dimensions above are somewhat faulty..

TenQ:
I would have been guilty if I said that God is a 4D being: but I never said so.
Even then,
A 4D being (assuming) is infinitely bigger than a 3D being. The best of 3D is the minimum of a 4D being.

Talking about Creation (since you brought it up), just as a 3D being can effortlessly create a 2D object so also a 4D being can do and undo with the 3D objects.

Your question of why is silly because only a being in a higher dimension can answer the question and you in the lower dimension wouldn't even comprehend it.

Did you notice how your disposition changed immediately you learned that this Philosophical dialogue is also spiritual?



If God is indeed the Creator of Everything, then there cannot be any other Dimensions higher than His

But, your argument still fails. What you're trying to do is sneak God into the position where he created all the dimensions; therefore the highest dimension that can exist. However, your argument has already being contemplated by the Gnostic creationist who argued that the God you're referring to, YHWH, is the Demiurge, Sabbodoth, who also thought he was the ad infinitum. Unknown to him, the demiurge, that there are several beings above him, e.g Sophia, his mother.

If the 2D cannot fathom the existence of 3D, it goes without saying that the God-D also cannot fathom dimensions over his. After all, 1D exist in 2D, 2D in 3D, ad infinitum. What dimension does the God-D dwell in?

Eho would have thought, Micheal Scofield and Sarah were going to be blacks. 😊

Kobojunkie:
Even if it is His doing as you claim, are men and women simply to throw their hands up in defeat, in submission to living a cursed existence, or what? Also, according to the verse, the curse should only apply to women in marriage or in childbirth— some relationship with a man—, so if God is to blame for misogyny, why does it extend in the real world beyond the boundary set by Him?

First, the writer implies(🙂) that Eve was a lesser creature, hence the name Eve: made from man. Both were not married in the sense that we have now. Nonetheless, it suggest that where men and women are gathered, the man by nature of being a man attains a higher status(what ever it is called) than a woman. Adam was the original creation with Eve being the supplement(helper).

You cannot deny the outright marginalization of women through out the bible. The ratio of men to women prophets(infact the women weren't prophets in the same sense as moses was. But you get my point.)

Let's not pretend that the doctrines of Christianity do not impose on the man a title greater than that of the woman. Unless, you'd agree with me that the bible is just a compulation of work of different individuals and sects. Nothing Godly about it.

Kobojunkie:
I am lost since I don't understand how stating this curse here has to do with anything.

Simple. Misogyny is God's doing.

Chale😁

Kobojunkie:
I suggest you go write your own book then and wait for those who subscribe to your ideas to show up. Mohammed did it, and so can you too. I am however not interested in reviewing these private musings of yours

Genesis 3:16,
Bible passage (Revised Standard Version)
16 To the woman he said,

“I will greatly multiply your pain in childbearing;

in pain you shall bring forth children,

yet your desire shall be for your husband,

and he shall rule over you.”

Kobojunkie:
2. Adam, not Eve, gave God the reason to curse marriage, and this is when Adam all but accused God of causing him— Adam— to sin by giving him Eve as a wife. So, if you are looking for one to blame for what happened in the beginning, focus on Adam— at least that is what God keeps saying.

Oh please, It was more like: "Aren't you God? you should have seen that coming." After saying this, God got so pissed at Adam, and cursed Adam. But, God's conscience was judging him, since, he did give Eve to Adam. He then went ahead to curse Eve to, so that, all things being equal. That's the real gist.

Kobojunkie:
3. So, in the face of the many sinful inequalities, women agitating for equal rights and freedoms is also of sin?

Blame God, not man. Adam didn't treat Eve as sub-human before the expulsion from Eden and the Curse laid upon Eve. So, why Dafuc should I blame myself for doing something involuntarily, and from the curse laid upon me by the Power of Powers?

cococandy:
So you’re even atheist. Meaning you’re not team “pray for the man”. Why are you here? Lol

Sweet of you to think I buy MB for Peace.

cococandy:
Explain how this connects to possession by demons. Quickly.

Because it seems you guys have the habit of talking off point. After you’ll call yourself logical. How is the verse you quoted connected to women being easy to possess by demons?

@bolded: Nice try. Hopefully, you haven't used that 'trick' to your advantage in financial matters!


OH common COCO, you had two comments that I divided into mutually exclusive statements,

1. This is the second comment I’m seeing within the past hour talking about how women are easy to possess by demons etc. who came up with that? How was it measured? Smh

2. You people have refused to acknowledge how deeply deeply hateful you are towards women and how you use every opportunity you have create anti-women spaces within your religious communities.

I was only making a comic of point number 2.

However, I love the tales of demons, since, after all, the search for demons, I could say, paved the path to my atheism. So, I may be able to tell you about why "demons" possess women more. Unsurprisingly, I can argue that it's the same reason women flood churches more than men (to put it in a lighter manner ). There is indeed the science to prove it
