Would you be so kind as to tell us who allotted these roles and how they arrived at the decision? Were the roles assigned at the famous Universal Congress of the Sexes, which is held every decade, and to which each sex sends elected representatives? Or did you consult individual men and women for their opinion and derived the rule from the majority position? It is your view that is the embarrassing one. This isn't the 50s. You have no authority to assign gender roles, nor does anyone else. People are free to configure their family lives as they please. If, as a man, you would prefer a partner who has no will apart from yours and no ambition apart from what you permit, then I hope you find someone who is alright with being subjugated, who wishes only to be provided for and to produce children. That is your prerogative. But don't ever pretend that your medieval fetish is some kind of universal truth. Women have as much right as any man to personal and professional aspirations, and there are many men who rightly and actively support their spouses in those pursuits. You say men die early because they do not "prioritize themselves". Do you not see the contradiction in that view? If it is his role to provide, how can he also prioritize himself? Do you not see that it is also in the man's economic interest for the woman to excel in her chosen field? Finally, I cannot for the life of me imagine why a person would wish to remove themselves from the raising of their own children? Why on earth would you want to leave that to your wife alone?

Oga Gazzuzz, please what would it cost to get a clean 2009/10 Corolla? |
Hi. I'm looking at getting a 2012 Corolla. What would it cost? |
Trevon91:Nope. |
Abeg na. |

ajoetrack:Thanks for responding. Do you mean at departure or arrival, and do you know the rate? |
Gentlemen, I plan on travelling to Seoul for a conference next month. Can anyone advise on where best to obtain the Korean Won and what rates to expect? I would appreciate any other tips for a first-time traveller to South Korea. Cheers. |
I had acne issues when I was a teen - which isn't so long ago - and I found that a certain product worked wonderfully for me. It's called Epiderm. There are two variants; lotion and cream. The lotion seemed the more effective one although both were the same in chemical composition. The product didn't only eliminate the acne; it gave my face a fine smoothness that matched my innocence and fueled my At some point I decided that I looked fresh enough and so I didn't trouble to renew my Epiderm subscription, and that's where the trouble began. The acne didn't return, but my face which had all the loveliness of a baby's asś started to feel like it was made from jeans. There was a lot of dryness, and after a while there was some mild scaling, starting from between my eyes. Then there was some itching. I couldn't stand any of that. I dived for my wallet and purchased the lotion again, and it has been that way since: I'm perfectly happy when I use the product but the roughness and scaling and general misery return as early as three days after I stop. It's like a heroine addiction. How can I make it go away? What lasting solution is there? I hold considerable stock in the chick market. I don't want to lose it. One more thing. Recent reports suggest that there has been some lightening in my complexion. This is something I cannot explain and am very worried about. Could it also be due to the lotion? I use Nivea body lotion and have my bath with Premier Cool. I had acne issues when I was a teen - which isn't so long ago - and I found that a certain product worked wonderfully for me.

Abuamam: Idrismusty97: shurl4:Oh. Thanks for clearing that up. I suspected that some of the pictures are of foreign crises. |
These pictures (and the anomaly they reflect) evoke unspeakable sadness, but that picture with the young fellow poised to stab the shirtless older man, that picture is truly frightening. The youth is just about to take a human life, but look how cold and casual he seems. |

doctor isa: I saw this topic days ago..and got confused what to write or how to reply...its one of my friend brother who came to spend the weekend with me that use my system to browse and create this topic...am a farmer and always busy in the farm...I don't even know anything about betting..I implore you to please disregard this topic and if any moderator is viewing please close or delete the trend...I have to him to login in with his username to create another topic to give you tips ![]() Are you saying that the appellation of Doctor which you have affixed to your name is merely ornamental? That you are neither a medical doctor, nor the holder of a PH.D in the much-sought-after field of the Meteorology of Punting? There are few things more devastating than following a thread which purports with considerable cockiness that it holds the key to secrets which will keep green the grass on your betting slip, only for the starter of the thread to rescind on the bargain, deciding instead that he is always busy in the bush since he is a farmer. I have conducted preliminary investigations, of course, and the topics which have been created previously by the Doctor Isa handle suggests that the real owner of the moniker may know more about rearing livestock than ruining bookies. In any case, the culpability of all users of the Doctor Isa moniker(permanent or temporary) cannot be expunged on any account. The fake Doctor Isa is liable for misleading the honourable public of the punters community; the real one is liable for his negligence, and the resultant psychological distress which it occasioned on the numerous and expectant followers of this thread, some of whom may even now be making a noose with which to end their lives because of hefty sums lost to dubious predictions. All the Doctor Isas, you have heard charges against you. How do you plead? |
femi4: 22626019You're the man, man! The modem is fixed for good, sure as hell. I assure you I'm not gonna forget this, Femi, and the next time there's a vacancy for a tech geek at the CIA I'll be sure to put in a word in your favour. On a tragic note, there has been a rather incredible development regarding that barbecue we were supposed to have. I'm sure you'll understand.

femi4: Finally this code MUST work : 86528781Damn right, Mzph, your problem has been solved. Now all you've got to do is fall on your knees in grateful awe, and then put in a few words on my own behalf. Femi, save me from MTN or i die. |
Folks like you are as rare as chicken's teeth, Femi4, spreading your generosity like a warm ray of sunshine on a chilly day. I have slaughtered and dressed that fatted calf, just as you asked me to, and the feast will begin in earnest as soon as you graciously supply the unlock codes for this device: MTN FASTLINK E303 IMEI: 868988011111488 S/N: U9CBYA92B1614157. I will now continue my devoted dry fast, Femi, until such time as you liberate me by pasting those blessed digits right here. Gracias! |
It's a jarring tragedy, as all sudden misfortunes are, but it really isn't all that much of a surprise. Creaky joints, loose bolts and rusty parts can almost be seen as the chopper struggles overhead, usually just a few meters over the top floor of Abuja Hostel, making a noise like a locomotive engine. That bird had always looked unsafe to me. It's a sad thing that it led to the loss of lives. |
I know a number of persons who found themselves on the wrong side of the screening exercise, one or two are close friends and i can tell you that some of them sunk into spells of inconsolable depression. However, that development occurred sometime last session and i was made to understand that possibly all the affected students were reassigned to other faculties of their own choosing. A new session began last year, first semester exams have been scheduled for early/mid April in fact; most of the displaced students appear to have accepted their fate and gotten on with their academics in their new departments. So, ain't the lawsuit thingy rather belated? I cannot help but wonder what remedy could possibly be available to these students. Reinstatement may be considered impractical as it would cost the department its licence. Some sort of pecuniary compensation perhaps? Situations like this are almost impossible to fix to everyone's taste. The school should've done the right thing from the very start. Regrettably, the school administration have repeatedly shown an unwillingness to apply reason even in the simplest of decisions. |
Your work, sir, is simply BAD!!! You know, as in, good, better, bad!! Every single line of the story had all the strings of my heart pulled taut. Jeez, i never imagined nigerians wrote stuff in the suspense/thriller genre. In truth, i've always wanted to write like this. The story, the technique, the simple but enthralling choice of words, everything's wicked. I hope you win bro, and not only that competition. |
Can you drink run-off water fromYour answer's quite enlightening and it does confirm my own thoughts regarding durability. The guy who's supposed to do the metro thing mentioned something in the region of a fifty-year warranty. Now about why anyone would want to drink run-off water from their roof; the question really tickled me. Hehe You see, my mum is Mother Nature's niece, so to speak. She does stuff that's crazier than that, like eat aloe vera raw. Besides, it's a village setting and the practice is quite common among those who've got the old corrugated iron sheets. @Cinzo Thanks for bothering with a reply. Went through the previous pages of the thread and i must say your dogged optimism is really inspiring. |
I agree with Jamie; blast that tale to the depths! Jack Johnny Depp Sparrow is the only capt'n jack sparrow that matters. Heck, if there ever was a hollywood depiction of the devil's biography, he would be flattered to see himself in Depp. |
Good day y'all, nice thread you got going here; it's made really interesting reading, very helpful too, considering i'm more or less involved in some building work. I've got a question and i'd be glad if some thing will be made clear to me. Our house is in the roofing stage now and my mum is typically fussy about the kind of roofing sheets we should use. Initially we planned on using metro tiles (if that's what they're called --- the ones with some coarse coating) as against aluminium step tiles (i hope you understand my amateurish description). Now she's worrying about totally frivolous things like whether rain water from the first kind (metro tiles) can be drunk --- she has a fetish for such traditional practices. Also, she seems to have been sold the idea that the aluminium kind lasts longer than the 'stone-coated' kind. I don't agree with her, but my opinion doesn't count as expert advice. So now that i've come upon this thread i'd really appreciate it if these questions are answered. I'll state them again for the sake of simplicity: Is rain water from stone-coated/metro roofing tiles drinkable? Do aluminium step tiles actually last longer than the stone-coated kind? Thanks. |
@Orikinla: The pic on your profile, that you? Sorry if the question seems rather forward, I'm just curious. It's cool, by the way) |
What would i ever do without Nairaland? I got my mtn modem unlocked, thanks to the charity of NL members, and just when i'm about to subscribe to an airtel data plan, i get three gig for ![]() Kai! Isn't this just awesome? Hehehe |
Uh, yep, it's me again :-) , i'm wondering, do i need to install an airtel modem for the sake of the program (that shows the bundles, account balance, etc) or can i activate an airtel data plan with the fastlink program? |
I just came across this thread and I'm so touched by its content that I feel obligated to contribute. Christian rock bands have some of the most touching christian songs you'll ever hear. Here's a list of my favourites, Band name followed by song titlewith my favourite line beneath: Casting Crowns----> Prodigal (And i've held out as long as i can, now i'm letting go and holding out my hand) Casting Crowns----> Stained-Glass Masquerade (Is there anyone that fails, is there anyone that falls, am I the only one in church today feeling so small?) Casting Crowns----> Somewhere in the Middle Hillsong----> All I Need is You Hillsong----> Love LIke Fire THese are some of my favourites, and i think they're some of the most moving songs ever sung. |
The way i see things, the foremost reason for desiring a new phone is, well, for the sake of the new phone! ![]() A shiny new toy is always a delight. |
