Family / Re: Who Is The Real Husband? by liberalchick(f): 7:20pm On Apr 24, 2021
If the first marriage was still valid, then she couldn’t have contracted another. When a person has been declared dead, a death certificate issued. With the death certificate, if you were married to the name on the death certificate, you are free to marry another.
With a death certificate, you can settle the affairs of that person, you can claim life insurance, pension etc.

The death certificate of your spouse means you are widowed, that’s the proof you show at the registry.

If the person resurfaces, then they have to legally declare they’re alive, your ex-wife’s second marriage is still valid, she will have to divorce her second husband to marry you again. There’s a reason there’s a minimum 7 year wait.

He is legally alive now.Also disolution of the first marriage was not presented before the court but legal mising of the first husband.
It doesn’t matter if the first marriage was dissolved or not, if the man was legally declared dead, then the marriage also ended by default. Death ends a marriage. There’s nothing like “legally missing”.

Why was he missing though? Was he kidnapped by another woman?

First, no human being is the rightful owner of another human being.

Second, a missing person is declared legally dead not missing. If a missing person is declared legally dead then the marriage also becomes void.

Sorry what is asexual
It’s when you have no sexual attraction to either sex. It doesn’t mean their ‘equipment’ don’t work, they do have an arousal and masturbate, they just don’t have the need to use it on either sex. Also, even though they feel no sexual attraction to either sex some can have romantic attraction to either sex.

Also, to add sexual and romantic attractions are two different things that most people don’t consider. Some gay men are sexually attracted to men but are only romantically attracted to women. There are some straight men that are sexually attracted to women but can never emotionally connect with them, some love their homeboys more than their wives or girlfriends.

We don't dismiss Asexuals, atleast not me. People barely know of their existence because they're like 1% of the population. Even within LGBT+ Nigeria, members do not know of them. It's up to them to make known their existence. I have never met an Asexual person either online or offline. All I know about them is the little I have read about Asexuality and asexuals
Oh, ok. Apologies. In his society, asexuals have their own movement but they aren’t largely accepted by the mainstream LGBT movement. A. They say Asexuals don’t face discrimination or risk to life like gay people because they can blend into the society and B. It isn’t really a sexual orientation (which isn’t true).

Tell that your asexual friend to tell his people to start fighting and not leave the whole thing for the lesbians gays and transwomen
Same thing bisexuals are doing, leaving the whole fight for homosexuals.
Really? That’s what you got from my post? It’s not about needing people to fight for them, it’s about the dismissiveness of asexuality by a group of people that should be empathetic to them.

I know this thread isn’t for me but I have two friends that are members of the community. One is my lesbian co-worker and the other my friend who’s an asexual man I met in grad school.

For my lesbian friend her grouse is how trans women (born male) unfairly call some lesbians transphobic for being attracted to only cis-women.

For my asexual friend, he’s disappointed the community refuses to or reluctantly recognize asexual as a sexual orientation, the “IA” is always an afterthought. I agree with him, transgenders are accepted (as they should) even though being transgender has nothing to do with sexual orientation.

I don't want to chase the sex angle so let me say this and drop it:

1. If a dominant husband tells his wife to 'lie on the couch for him', does the wife have the option to say no?
2. If the husband is to dictate the pace of sex, then the wife's consent might not matter much because whoever has the consent to give dictates the pace of sex in that relationship.
Go back and read your own post. There is no ambiguity when it comes to consent. The author of your post already said if your sex partner is unwilling, (yes! That would include not wanting to lie on the couch, if you don’t want to) then you can’t rape them.

According to the author, the woman has to be willing to be a submissive and not coerced. What you’re implying is a slave and master relationship. There’s a difference between a leader and a dictator. A leader is chosen to lead, a dictator imposes his will.

The above is also from number 4:

If you would not ask your submissive wife if she wants to have sex or order her to do stuffs without the option of no, where is the consent?

This thread is not about sex or consent, my observation is what I would have liked to ask the author because she spoke about conflicting concepts there.
What the author said is not contradictory. In real life, most couples don’t initiate sex by literally asking, they do so by touch. You know you don’t have consent when an unwilling participant does not reciprocate or verbally says no. Also, I know this isn’t about BDSM, but even in that community, consent is very huge. They have safe words to let the dominant person know they don’t have consent.

You can have sex whichever way you want but it has to be consensual. The author is right.

However, this is in no way a green light for you to do anything your submissive wife is not OK with because submissiveness doesn’t equal rape. The fact that you’re husband and wife is irrelevant, and just because you’re a married couple, it doesn’t mean that you have the right to do anything she doesn’t feel like doing or that you are entitled to force her into having sex with you Kinky sex ideas are one thing, but sexual abuse is something completely different, and you should always have in mind not to cross that line. Remember that consent is always crucial and that you can’t start doing anything without that

Sunnimuslim,
what you went through is terrible and it is sad that people act like this is normal. This is not normal, this is abuse. I hope God will give you the strength to heal from the abuse you were subjected to and I pray you will use your experience to do better but I also want you to know that it is not your duty to forgive your brother just because you happen to be related. Forgiveness can't be forced. You will allow it when the time comes and I hope you will allow it for your own sake and your own peace of mind and not because it is expected of you. Take your time. You will be fine. For you to open up here tells me that you are on your way to finding the peaceful resolution that you seek. As of now, feel free to keep your distance from your 'brother'. Sometimes the family we are born to is not the family we need. It can be hard but it can also make you stronger. I am glad you are old enough to stand up for yourself but be careful it doesn't get out of control and someone gets seriously hurt in one of the fights. Your brother hasn't changed. He must have a lot of issues to act the way he does. No sane and content human being behaves like this. I hope that understanding this can help you see that he needs help too but it is not your place to help people who have not asked to be helped. It should be your priority to protect yourself, best by keeping your distance, at least for the time being.
Very well said! He needs to stay away from his abusive brother, not all blood is kin.

If you have good/decent people as family by all means celebrate and enjoy them, if not.......... you're on a very long thing.

Family is everything & blood is thicker than water, are over-used and abused concepts that amuse me to no end.
My dear, we’ve been raised to believe blood is always right. Most Nigerians are crippled with the emotional blackmail of ‘family’

Fathia Balogun changed her name o, if I can remember well. I think her husband dragged her to court over the name issue sef. guess the lady can keep the name if the husband is not a petty being
FALSE

She changed her name because she wanted to not because of a court order. Also, we know she changed it on her social media but officially we don’t know if she really did.

Celebrities say they take people to court all the time but they never do. No court will ever tell you to stop using your own name.

Dear family,

I have created this topic to get wider opinions from the experienced and especially those who are married because sometimes when take decisions or react to situations they may not be objective but fueled by our personal biases.

What is your take on parents especially mothers calling spouses everyday in marriages? Mother-in-law calling her daughter everyday or mother-in-law calling her son everyday.

Personally, I don't like it or support my mother-in-law calling my wife everyday. Situations like this will make it inevitable for my in-laws to know everything going on in our lives. I believe when people are married, they should be left alone to live their lives.

Please what are your opinions about this topic?
There’s nothing wrong in talking to your mom everyday, I talk to mine everyday. Just because they call, does not mean the call is about your marriage.

The choice of dropping an ex name goes two ways

It's either both parties agrees she keeps the me after divorce

Or she drops the me for her to return to her maiden name and either remarry bear the new husband's name or retains her maiden name

There is nothing like she bears it before and there is no big deal about it
That’s not how it works, there’s nothing like “both parties agree” the name is the woman’s and she can do with it whatever she wants. Keep it or not keep it. Nobody can force her not to use it, it’s literally a name.

Real divorce from a higher court drops name

Customary divorce to me is like a separation that will lead to legal divorce and so may or may not continue to bear his name
You don’t have to drop your ex-husband’s last name after any type of divorce. No man/court can compel the woman to drop the name, it’s her name and she can do what she wants with it.

OP, some keep it for..

a. They’ve had it for a while and are used to it.
b. Hassle of changing it.
c. Consistency, they want to have same last name with their kids.
d. Prestigious last name.
e. The woman has created a successful business with the name.
f. It’s a nice name.
The only Nigerian woman I can think of is Senator Ita-Giwa, even though she was married to Dele Giwa for 10 seconds.

Family / Re: What Is Your Opinion About People Celebrating Their Divorce ? by liberalchick(f): 12:44pm On Aug 19, 2020
There’s nothing wrong in celebrating a divorce, some are in very toxic marriages and they are very happy that has been removed from their life. Some are also happy that they had the courage and bravery to leave a toxic marriage even when society bullies you to stay and endure. I don’t see it as celebrating ‘failure’, I see it as celebrating life and being hopeful for a better future. You only live once.

Your wife should go and remove the polyp. It’s not a serious surgery. It’s not a ‘surgery’ where your skin is cut, it’s done through the vagina and it’s a same day procedure. It’s in the cervix, the doctor just pulls it out or burns it and the pain after is just like normal period cramps. She’s living in denial, not removing the polyp will not make it disappear and it will also hinder a successful IVF or natural conception.

Also, she needs to remove the polyp and have it tested to know if it’s cancerous or benign, she should not play with her life because of fear.

The thing is men that really love their wives don’t open threads that their wives ‘denied’ them sex. When you think your wife is a paid sex object, this is what you get. Nobody talks or cares when the wife is in the mood for sex but the husband isn’t, somehow wives are supposed to understand sometimes your spouse isn’t in the mood for sex. It’s all about the man.

Lol Nigerian men and “she denied me sex” the word “deny” already betrays what the problem is. If your attitude to marital sex is entitlement and your right to have it because you paid bride price, you’ve already failed. Your wife is a human being and women also love sex. When you think of marital sex as only your right to have and enjoy, it can never end well. Men that aren’t selfish lovers, men that their wife’s orgasm is equally as important as his, don’t open all these threads.

Family / Re: My Opinion About The Viral "Calm Down" Video, What Is Yours? by liberalchick(f): 4:03pm On Aug 01, 2020
I don’t find the video funny and I don’t know why the video went viral. From the outside looking in its cringeworthy a mother will video a child in distress but we have to know it’s only the mother that knows if the child is really in distress. Some children are extremely dramatic that distress to an outsider is what the mother faces daily. While I will never video my child and post on social media, I think it’s a stretch to say the child is abused without knowing the child. For the person that referenced abroad and visa etc even a welfare worker will not jump to conclusions, he/she will interview neighbors, family, teachers etc.

I remember when social services was called on me because my child always came to school distressed and looked like someone that just finished a crying bout. My child absolutely hated breakfast, she would start crying once she sees you dishing the food. Now that she’s grown it’s a running joke how she would have been in foster care now.

Yeah, but my point is every secondary student is a science student. We first had NaWi, which is a combination of biology, physics and chemistry in class 5-6. In class 7-10, it became more specific, so we had a Biology class, Physics class and Chemistry Class.
The best way.

The Nigerian way is very inflexible, your career path can be locked in as early as 13, when you start senior secondary. How can a 13 year old be absolutely sure she wants a career in arts, humanities or STEM??

In the US, you get accepted into a college and not into a specific major. You spend your first two years doing everything, most don’t even declare a major till the end of their second year in college. This makes for a lot of wiggle room and opportunities to change your mind. That’s why It’s not weird for someone to major in Engineering and end up becoming a lawyer.

Is there proof she’s lying?

She has accused him. He has the right to clear his name via social media or the civil courts. The state where the alleged rape happened have a choice to investigate and take the crime (rape) to court if there is evidence.
