Even though majority sees you as a dictator, I see you as a messiah but it unfortunate you passed away at the time Nigeria need you most.
I wish you can come back to finish up with your assignment, kill all the bad people dragging Nigeria backward and you go too so the youth can take over.


May your soul continue to rest in peace.
were MKO, Kudirat, Saro-Wiwa part of these bad people?

Most women forgive? Yes.
Live 'happy' lives? Lies. The frictions will always be there.
You are not a woman, you will only say that which is acceptable to you. So, I am not surprised lots of you men assume women indeed forgive and are HAPPY. Same women that are 'emotional' creatures? LOL!!!

He loves her but he is banging another chick RAW and buying postinor 2 for her? May I not be loved and valued that way.
Many men can love and value their partners and still cheat.

not the same for most women.

No, majority of Nigerians don't earn such.

>Nigeria has an estimated population of 180m.
Over half of this population are living below poverty line.
>Minimum wage is N18000 a month, N216,000 p.a
>Npower is N30000 a month, N360,000 p.a
>NYSC is N19800 a month, N237,600 p.a
>Dependency ratio is over 80%
>Unemployment rate was put at 18.8% [Q3, 2017]. There have been recent reports, by NBS of a 1.1% decrease in [Q1, 2018], but with Buhari in power and what I see around, I don't believe it.
>Most youths are either unemployed or underemployed.
>2% of Nigerians account for 90% of bank deposits [NDIC, 2016]. That should tell you the gap between the rich and the poor.

resurgent2019:
The snafu here is that the kind of feminism practiced by our women is a ruse. They want to eat their cake and have it. How many of the girls shouting feminism on this section are doing very well for themselves?

We all heard the exploits of pocohontas{who is the head of the feminist pack on here}. It is a very shameful news —because i really thought she embodied what she always propagated.

I cant really discuss feminism because i do not really understand its purpose—in the Nigerian context. Pardon my ignorance.
the way you folks slander people here ehn. Can't you make a good point without trying to bully or defame others.

RomanceRe: Lady Cries Out As Ex-Boyfriend Threatens To Release Her Nudes For Dumping Him by monex(m): 5:31am On Jul 11, 2018
pocohantas:
That's because ladies do not leak them. Not because they are any better, but because no one is interested in a guy's nude. If the lady is stupid enough to leak it...be rest assured she will get most of the backlash. No be Naija we dey again?

Guys send nudes too. Forget this mouth they're running here.

That said, I am not really open to exchange of nudes but I understand that people do a lot of silly things when the going is good. It is only a very vengeful and immature person that will go about leaking nudes and slandering an ex after break-up.

She should be happy to break-up with such a person. This kind guy can pour acid. Pray not to be at the receiving side of an aggrieved [immature] man. Hell hath no fury...

RomanceRe: Don't Submit To Any Man Because Of Marriage by monex(m): 5:24am On Jul 11, 2018
LordKO:
Only a petty man (person) will expect/demand for submission - submissiveness is good and expected, and those who expects it knows that its earned not given - from a woman (person) outside formal settings (work environment where totalitarian rather than civility is required to achieve efficiency). Yes, there's a distinction/difference between submissiveness and submission - euphemism. The importance of euphemism can never be overemphasized. Show me a proponent of submission and I will point to you a subjugator. Unfortunately, subjugation knows no gender.

Mutual healthy and happy union only takes place where both parties involved are liberators (not where one of the parties is a subjugator) - liberalism doesn't mean absence of conscientiousness.

Sincerity begets submissiveness. A sincere head doesn't need immunity to reign supreme towards his follower(s), however, an insincere head can only reign supreme towards his follower(s) if and only he has immunity, this is so because he's full of impunity - so, an insincere head will expect submission rather than submissiveness from his follower. The former in this regard is a leader - leaders liberates - while the latter is a dictator - dictators subjugates. Those of the diplomatic ethical leanings liberates, while those of the manipulative ethical leanings subjugates.
unfortunately most people derive their demand for submission from the christian bible. In this book, respect/submission is obligatory and not earned. Ditto for love.

The man is obligated to love his wife no matter how undeserving she is and the woman is obligated to submit to her husband no matter how undeserving he is.

It might be easier to find a different interpretation for the context of submission and love used in those obligations but it will be impossible to say that they are not unconditional obligations.

as more and more people veer away from orthodox religions, submission will cease to be a topic. Although I fear marriage will also cease to be a topic.

Typical Naija man, buys respect[submission] with his money.
Without money,most of you will feel very useless and insecure.

In fact you all should stop complaining of gold digging Naija ladies...they are the perfect fit for lots of you.
there is no analogy in what he wrote and your response.

that he thinks independent ladies are feminist means he has an issue with feminism not financial independence. He would like an independent lady who is not a feminist.

your assertion that he wants to buy respect/submission with money cannot be deduced from his post.

maxtreme:
But respect is mandatory, right? And the man should be the head right? And respect is reciprocal, right? If it's yes to these things, then you are correct, but if one of your answers is no, then you are wrongestess lol
nothing in life is mandatory. We all have choices and there would be repercussions for our choices

respect is contextual and your job is to find someone who shares your values, culture and context of respect
EducationRe: Professor Grace Otinwa: I Kneel Down To Greet My Husband by monex(m): 12:29pm On Jul 07, 2018
SheIsElle:
So? Kneeling down doesn't make her a good woman or a perfect wife. I don't see the need in doing that, I see marriage as a fusion of friends who have each others best interest at heart. Where is the fun and friendship if I have to kneel down to greet you?
Where is the fun and friendship if he has to kneel to propose to you?

to each his/her own. There is nothing wrong in her kneeling to greet her husband and there is nothing wrong in not kneeling. These are matters of preferences not common right or wrong. What is important and what society should fight is that we have our freedom to make our own choices.

Kneeling to greet your husband should be your choice. ditto for the reverse.

and yes kneeling doesnt make her a perfect wife. You don't see the need but she sees the need. None of you is wrong.

themodernman:
My dear follow your heart but make sure your heart is rock solid and isn't easily hurt, cos Nigerian men will taunt the hell outta you.

If you walk by the road and mistakenly slip on a banana peel, they'll attribute it to your singleness at your age.

They'll attribute the most ludicrous reasons with anything happening to you and you'll almost get yourself driven crazy.

The best thing most times is to keep your private life private and don't try to form liberator etc. Norms are thoroughly ingrained and not to so easily effaced from people's psyche.

Just live your live privately but if you feel you can put up with the taunting, ridicule, stigmatisation etc, then go public with it.
it is not just nigerian men. it is society in general due to our culture. we don't like exceptions /outliers. I have a colleague who is in her early forties and is nasty/mean to everyone.

My other female colleagues thinks she is frustrated about not being married. I say she has an inherent nasty personality. They say they are women and i dont know how women think.

Guys claim marriage is a disadvantage for them.
Yet.... they are on every social medial fighting people who are advising against marriage. Erm confused much? These type of people should be your best allies in eradicating an institution that is so unfair to you. Unless y’all were just being insincere and mouthing off
true that is hypocritical. except that it might not be the same guys who say marriage is unfair to them that are fighting those against marriage.

also a lot of peeps used to see marriage as a necessary evil. That is changing now for both gender and thankfully so.

marriage should simply be a choice. even religious books like Paul in the christian bible say we are advised not to marry except we would burn with lust

I dont know why males on this thread are crying about this...Marriage for women in Nigeria is extremely stressful while for men its an eldorado.

Married women look and feel better before marriage,while married men look much better after marriage..fact.
men generally age slower. if you add sophistication, you will see why older men might look more attractive.

it is not marriage that makes him look younger

Oga as at now,as in 2018...Most married men do not go through any damned stress of providing anything!!!...in Nigeria!!.I have countless real life experiences of married people around me,both colleagues and family members..

99% of the women in the aforementioned marriages contribut at least 60% of the financial burden in the home...I have heard an earful with complaints from them on how their husbands are not bringing in much financially...

They do all the house chores,cook,take care of the kids,work and bring in more money than their husbands.Most married women will not open up to you about the stress they are going through in other to 'cover their husbands unclothedness'..but the mega stress is Real!!!!...And the men very ungrateful and difficult.

RomanceRe: Lady Calls Out Ijebu Gynaecologist Who Slide Into Her Dm Just To Ask For Sex by monex(m): 10:52pm On Jul 03, 2018
pocohantas:
I asked you a simple yes or no question.

But if you don't get my complain, let me explain it in simple terms. Certain professions and positions imposes some level of responsibility on us. You can't be a gynaecologist and go asking for sex from random girls because you are not in a theatre.

You are supposed to portray a good image in and out of your workplace. You are a representative of your organisation. I don't know if you work in a formal organisation, if you do...you should know this. Even if you don't, it is common sense.
there is nothing unprofessional about asking for consensual sex. It only feels this way because it is the public domain. Many organisations would frown at a leaked tape of a personnel (who is single) and his girlfriend. it doesn't make having sex outside the office unprofessional.

You can say the guy lacked tact and there is really two extremes these days for a guy who wants to get laid. (1) deceive her into having sex with you (2) be straightforward about your intentions. most people do a middle between those two extremes.

For someone who told us he "booked tickets" just so he can see her as if booking tickets is such an achievement in the child's life, he definitely would have added that he took care of the baby.
Same person whose own PARENTS had no idea they had a grand child for TWO WHOLE YEARS ASIDES THE NINE MONTHS PREGNANCY is the one you say was caring for mother and child? There is something called deductive intelligence. You can deduce intelligently from a part to form a whole.
i did not say "was caring ..." i say that we cannot say for certain that he wasnt

what you did there is inductive not deductive.

yours had more weight than freshvine though. hers was more unlikely. I concede that
