LOL...so he can pick his next target...

tensor777: That's not the point. This thread is about those ladies that would join their spouses abroad in the West.
What the average nurse earns, and it is more than $25 per hour is enough for them to be financially independent and live well in the West.

Respond again with some coherence.

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]Are you Somali?

LMAO @people thinking 25 dollars isn't enough money!

I dey laff in Yoruba! [/quote]For people who've earned way much more than that, it sure isn't a lot of money. I can understand where you are coming from though, if it is a lot of money to you.

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]So you want a defenseless chick to boost that pathetic ego?

Na wa oo![/quote]Which ego do you speak of? Mine or your fathers?

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]You are a lie. Nurses makes decent money.[/quote]What is the difference between what he said and what you said? Is "decent money" the same as "a lot of money"? Anyway, some people consider $25/hour a lot of money; some don't.

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]What's the difference[/quote]Duh...in diaspora, she has the backing of her family and government...in Nigeria...she has no backing...

hyzicbond: Osmi get both Epl and Ucl right

They don't know the difference between terrestrial and satellite broadcast/rights.

[quote author=fresh_dude]I don't necessarily agree. You see, it's been a custom of ours for ages and while a change is needed, it's a tad bit myopic to call them prostitutes.
They are only prostitutes when they go into the relationship for the sole purpose of benefiting financially, which many do and mask it as love.
If you cannot love a broke guy because he's broke ashi is your name. Simple![/quote]Look, we are aware of the financial disparities that usually exist in "relationships" in Nigeria. We see a working professional (male) dating a student (female). Yes, we expect the male to be financially better off than the female. But even with the peanuts that the female has in her bank account, she can show appreciation for her man one way or the other. I don't expect 50/50 but by their financial capability. I have known girlfriends who don't even buy gifts for their boyfriends on their birthday; yet they expect presents from their boyfriends on theirs. And it's a relationship? Who's fooling who?

Inyanga: Do u know how many demons are transferred through those harlots, i bet you don't wish to know...

Actually I wish to know. Can you tell us on average how many demons are transferred? Is it electronic transfer or direct deposit?

vickyO: You guys speaking are just lazy a.s.s.es looking for lame excuses to shy away from little responsibilities.
I don't advocate sex before marriage but there is a difference between a prostitute and a girlfriend, a big one as a matter of fact.

in the Western World, they also have boyfriends and girlfriends. Only difference is, it is a symbiotic relationship and both buy gifts for the other. It is not a one-way (parasitic) relationship as the women here have come to understand. If your boyfriend is always buying you stuff (and giving you money) and you've never even bought him a thing (not even chewing stick), I'm afraid you are into pros.titution and not a relationship.

sexkillz: [color=#000030]With the responses on this thread, I'll stop wondering why r ape incidences are on a steady incline. . .
[/color]

Now, what has r@pe got to do with this thread? If you were r@ped, my condolences; but I don't see what it has got to do with this scenario.

On second reading of the OP, it seems she heard somebody she knows patronizes pros.titutes. She's now forming a mental picture of the clean cut dude hanging with the "dirty" ones she saw at Obalende. She needs to know that most likely the type of pros.titutes the clean cut man hangs with are her friends from university, her colleagues at work or even her bosses at work.

sexkillz: [color=#000030]I can resist a 17 year old. That counts as something. [/color]

Good for you. But do you even know the OP's age? Certainly I see nothing wrong with it if he's within a certain age range. I would say: none-of-my-biz. Especially if she's the one doing all the flirting. You ask me if I plan to have a daughter? Well, I certainly will teach my daughter how to flirt without undressing in front of her target. That counts as something.

francababy: I cannot believe that guys will sleep with those rough looking, unkempt girls you find in brothels. Seriously what fun is it to sleep with a girl that has had sex with like 10 guys before you that day? I created this topic because I was driving home now and passed Obalende. Come and see them.. Chai

Guys do you even enjoy sleeping with any of these girls?

If it was the Obalende Ashis that made you open this thread, then you are inferring that the guys on Nairaland are Agberos, Armed Robbers and Area Boys.

sexkillz: [color=#000030]And you're happy about that? And want to see more 17 year olds having 2/3 kids? [/color]

Hahaha...I see you are a Super Hero...Captain Sexkillz to the rescue...come save the world...though your name might be changed to Captain Save a H0e. Dude, there's nothing you can do about it.

sexkillz: [color=#000030]Nigeria - A country full or sex starved perverts. Who are these shameless beings advocating for him to sleep with a naïve 17 year old? Let the girl sleep with her mates if she is in dire needs.

Sleep with that girl if you hate yourself.

[/color]

You probably stay indoors all day and don't watch TV but just stay on Nairaland all day given that you supposedly live in the US. Otherwise, you would know of the 17 year old "naive" girls with 2/3 kids.

[quote author=smartg ]What about guys that goes to the village to marry after rocking life with the girls in the city.[/quote]Still the basis of my point; guys don't like going to social gatherings and have like 3/4 exes of your wife at the gathering. And what's that thing about "Okafor's Law" again?

Oh, and to further buttress my point; it is the same reason that a new arrival (male or female) is hot cake. As a new arrival, you find yourself being propositioned left and right; Flavor of the Month things and all because the person does not yet have a "sexu@l history" (for the females) or because you don't yet know their "sexu@l history" (for the males) in the new environment.

Tolexander: that means no matter how foolish one is, he will still have an admirer.
Why not clicking the news to know the source!

Once again, sarcasm is rocket science. My initial post was sarcastic. And after my second post, if it is still not obvious, anybody that still doesn't get it definitely has sawdust for brains.

makahlj2: Tsarist Russia was a fabulously rich country. And this guy (and his ancestors) practically were its owners. What else would you expect?

I wonder. It's like asking how the Sultan of Brunei or the Saudi Royal Family became fabulously rich.

Incrizz: Who is Sydney?

LOL. Sydney, Australia.

2mch: Passed around? You mean girls in Nigeria who have slept with all your fathers age mates and all your age mates? When you try to seek political position people will be laughing at you. Guy you funny die. Girls in Nigeria are more passed around than abroad. They are hungry and will cheat. Many guys go to Nigeria and do 3somes. Who are these girls they are doing it with. You say we should marry prostitutes? Even village girls are big time prostitutes because of poverty in the country. Tell another lie. You know how men who marry wives from naija get divorced? Like water

Comprehension is your problem. They say "ignorance is bliss"; and that is the exact thinking of guys abroad. A guy would rather marry a girl with a sordid history somewhere else unlike one he already has all the information at hand and locally (especially one that has slept with his friends or acquaintances). I doubt you would understand how they think though; because you don't come across as a guy.

makahlj2: Nope, such events cannot topple a Totalitarian state. Most Russians hadn't even heard about Storozhevoy, for example. The regime controlled all information exchange.

Did I say anything about the state being toppled? Yes, I am aware most Russians never heard about Storozhevoy because it became public knowledge only after the fall of the Iron Curtain; but the incident echoed the prevalent state of mind in the entire state: that of low morale and disillusionment which became even more obvious in Afghanistan.

It is hard for a Nigerian dude to settle for a girl who's mostly been passed around. The Nigerian communities abroad are small and we are not Oyinbos that don't care if their friends and acquaintances had slept with their wife-to-be. So the first date is a make or mar; once you as a Nigerian girl start off with a failed relationship, it will be a slippery slope of one after another. Your best bet is to marry the first guy you date over there; because I can assure you that when a guy gets interested in you and checks your background he will quickly lose interest when he finds you'd dated guys he knows.

There are other reasons though, but that tops the list.

Mikhaela: What is wrong in not being able to cook or speak a language? It's easy to say that this is a problem without actually digging more. I think I've said this before, I don't speak any Nigerian dialect, I don't cook any Nigerian food, I don't know anybody from Nigeria etc. My upbringing was not a "typical" Nigerian upbringing if I may say but that doesn't mean jack. That being said, I consider myself to be a normal woman. I cook only for myself, at least I try, because I live alone, been living alone since I was 17/18. I speak only European languages because that was what I was taught. I work to pay for my bills, I have a regular (or maybe not ) social life. I just feel that marriage is overrated. I want my future boyfriend (winks at Santa) to make me feel comfortable regardless of his "upbringing". As long as there is some kind of stability, I'm good to go.
Nothing will change though. I will still not be able to cook, even if I try. I will still not speak any dialect, I will still not be the typical Nigerian lady. I'll just be who I've always been...

Good luck (Jonathan).

[quote author=Dr.Tony]Oga its not a matter of your years of living but your zeal to know gather knowledge, i bet u a Nigerian same his age can tell you a complete history of not only her country but other countries, but only few who really bother to know, so the chap is brilliant give it to him and quit criticizing Sir[/quote]I don't know what the problem of some of you are. Actually I do, but I won't delve into it here.

In any case, all what the dude stated in the quote below is no different from what a 22 year old from the Southeast would say when asked about the Biafran war: subjective stories he heard from his older ones and around him.

some username: Nobody here understands it either.
From the first look it seems like tensions between national republics started to rise and Gorbachev decided to reform USSR into another union, less solid and with bigger responsibilities of national governments. But after USSR was disbanded and CIS was created Yeltsin suddenly usurped power in Russia, overthrew communists and banned communist party. Similar things happened in other republics except for Belarus and Belarus is the only country who is in CIS now except for Russia of course.

But if you dig deeper it seems like either Gorbachev himself or Yeltsin or both of them were either controlled by USA or were just outright CIA agents because what they did was pure traitory - they made it possible for our resources and scientific developments to be bought cheaply by Europe and US. The economy lay in ruins, people fled the country, starved, took drugs, forced each other into prostitution or mafia rings. As one of the ministers from that time said "We had no time to care about anything - we only had to destroy industry so that communists would never rise again".
People were overwhelmingly against USSR dissolution,yet Gorbachev allowed it to happen.

I know enough about goings on in the USSR to be aware that it was ready to fall as far back as the 70s (as highlighted by the mutiny on the ship Storozhevoy) and the Afghanistan disaster of the 80s further underscores that point.

logica: Orisun? An Ofe Mmanu news outlet? I don't believe this news.

Hahahaha...somebody liked my post. Sarcasm is rocket science.

Orisun? An Ofe Mmanu news outlet? I don't believe this news.

I don't know why some people are asking questions on politics if indeed this dude is 22; because if he is, he was born after the fall of the Iron Curtain and never experienced life in the USSR. All he has are "The Good Ol' Days" stories from those who have quickly forgotten. (The grass is always greener on the other side...)

The same Catholic Church that gave them The Bible.

holysmoke: Op I've enjoyed this thread. I get the impression that your knowledge of your country is higher than that of the average Russian.

I'd like to ask, are you familiar with the works of Alexander Solthzenitsyn (pardon me, not sure if I got the spelling right). He was a distinguished Russian scholar. In the hey days of communism as a child he remembered listening to his parents,grandparents & others sitting down discussing in hushed tones. They asked themselves," why is the government so cruel, why do they punish their citizens, why, why, why..." You know what the answer was at the end of every one of such deliberations? It was the same and it went thus... " It is because we have forgotten God".

You see,folks in your country who were old enough then and had experienced genuine religion earlier on in life witnessed the change that occurred in your country and could testify that Godlessness had made a mess of the social fabric of your country.

You may not understand what I'm telling you now if you're an atheist/agnostic with no familial religious bent, but do try to check it out.
The bottom line is Russia needs God in the person of His.son Jesus Christ, and dearly too... (well who doesn't).

As an aside, I commend your society for resisting the Western European onslaught of liberalism, gay rights and all the other nonsense. You must not relent in your efforts.

Finally are you people scared of the rising wave of Islam. Are you aware of the mohammedian agenda to take over the world? It's a good thing your immigration policy has not been favourable to the Islamization of your country. Now with England gradually caving in to Islam, France tottering on the edge and the rest of Western Europe in peril , are your people afraid? How much longer do you think you can hold out? Because the truth is with the way things are going now, unless something gives, much of Europe will be conquered in less than 2 generations.

LOL. If you have any semblance of logical reasoning, you would see the obvious contradiction in that Nigeria that is probably the most religious country in the world is far worse off than Russia.

some username: Well, old name for easter slavic state was «Rus» pronounced kinda like «Roos'». That name somehow evolved into our modern name «Rossiya». How did Englishmen manage to get our name wrong is unknown to me though I suspect it was because of some wrong spelling of Rossiya somewhere in middle ages by some european traveller or maybe because they heard that name from Germans who heard it from Poles who heard it firsthand. At least «Russia» resembles «Rossiya» somewhat, for example Chinese call China «Zhongguo» and themselves «Zhongguoren» which doesn't resemble «China» and «Chinese» even remotely.

China/Chinese derives from the Xin (Chin) dynasty.
