aroundtheearth:We are still saying the same thing. What applies to this can equally apply to that. People only get who they are like and not who they want to be like. Same thing. A bore hole should get a community pen/s A rich girl a rich man. A fine girl a fine man. A broke girl a broke man. A shy girl a shy man Etc. I like the principle,no hypocrisy there.Thanks |
ibkonekt:Well elaborated |
aroundtheearth:So using the deserving principles bore holes deserves community pen/s. Broke girls deserve broke boys, short girls same etc, only girls that meets the same standard as a guy deserve each other. Really nice. |
aroundtheearth:Please state your logic |
ibkonekt:I believe so too |
StacyO:So virgin guys would want to marry virgin girls but will prevent unvirgin guys from doing same? That's the point I assume, correct me if I am wrong. |
I made a comment on someone's post about this and it got me thinking. The logic is this : MUST I BE SOMETHING TO EXPECT THAT SAME THING. So that logic applies to virginity, must a man be a virgin to expect a virgin wife? The logic can also be twisted this way, must a woman make 6 figures or more before she can consider marrying a rich man? Or must she be 6 feet tall before she demands her man must be at least 6 feet tall. The logic is simply you can't 'take what you can't give'. |
Angelsssss:Yeah as a lady I expected you to say that. But a guy doesn't think that way. Just the same way most ladies will choose a guy that has money to take care of her to marry when she is ready to settle down over a guy who isn't ready to settle down because he is still broke, even if he really loves her. |
Angelsssss:People want what people want be it virginity or not, their choice if it makes them happy. Same way other people want tall guys or rich guys, they may not be tall or rich themselves but its still their life and their choice. |
Derinofzion:Okay that's good. |
Derinofzion:No need for the personal attack, I only explained that bride price is directly connected to a woman's sexuality, it is even stated in the bible. While Africans and other Asia may have barbaric methods to ensure girls keep their virginity before they pay their bride price, others dont. Like the Jews, the English etc that just require a lady to be virtuous on her own. So now you know what bride price is all about, hope you wont demand for one? |
Cyry:Trevor Noah too is Nigerian, thank God |
NobleAngell:Like I said it has lost its true meaning, what you stated above is it's current meaning. Before the 21st century, female sexuality outside marriage was frowned upon by society, then 2nd wave feminism came with liberation on female sexuality and this brought about the widespread availability of contraceptives for women, since women could use contraceptives before or after sex, getting pregnant was no longer an issue, therefore keeping ones virginity too , was no longer seen as an issue. Before this time though it was, there were great limitations on the availability of contraceptives even in the west, abstinence was the surest way then and virginity was key. African practiced many forms of abstinence to preserve the female virginity until marriage. Let me give some examples you may easily remember. Female circumcision is one of them, the idea behind it is to make a girl have low libido, a practice done to safeguard the female sexuality until marriage. Others include the flattening of a females breast as she enters puberty known as breast ironing, it is believed to help the girl be chaste. Same as other rituals where girls transition from girlhood to womanhood known as fattening rooms, this happens in early puberty and is only for virgins. Also their is this practice then where a man sleeps with his new wife under white sheets or cloth, it is believed that if she is a virgin she will bleed at her first sex and stain the sheet red. I have not even touched Asia or parts of Europe. You know the white wedding dress use to be a symbol of a chaste virgin girl before marriage. But now it's just a white dress. Asians including Indians can kill their bride if she turns out not to be a virgin. Like I said, bride price has a lot to do with buying not just a woman but her untouched sexuality, but we live in an immoral world now and people no longer care as much. Dear hope you understand better now? |
NobleAngell:Dear, if you did you will just tell me. I told you mine and you disagreed, so tell me yours. Before I told you that answer , I did my research. So show me your research or hold your peace. |
NobleAngell:You dont know the answer, it's obvious. |
Whatever happened to sexuality section, what are the mods doing about this? |
Zzor:You just sexually objectified him...poor manners |
NobleAngell:Do you know why men paid bride price in the first place or dowry? They were simply buying the sexuality of an untouched woman. Infact the man after sex is suppose to return and confirm to his inlaws that he met her as a virgin, any other thing would bring shame and disgrace to the family and even divorce. Now people pay bride price but it has no meaning again. |
VaselineCrew:We support aggressive, possessive, even tyrannical people in Nigeria alot ( that's just scratching the surface of the kind of people we support) and that is why our system, almost every system produces such leaders. Can you think of any aggressive, possessive or tyrannical saviours you know? As you rightly mentioned mass voter education must be done but not by INEC, maybe NGO's, maybe on forums like this, maybe through TV or radio programs, maybe through symposium, one on one discussion or a combination of all the above....You can add yours too. In civilised society only the ENLIGHTENED, DIPLOMATIC and EMPATHETIC should lead, their leadership style fashioned after "LEADING BY EXAMPLE", rather than "leading by dominating". In Nigeria our leader inspire "Fear" rather than inspire "Awe". Go against a leader and get punished. We respect a certain leader or even our elders not becomes we are in "awe" of them but because we are "afraid" of disregarding them for fear of punishment. Sometimes we are in "awe" of them, not because they are good leaders in themselves but because we are "AFRAID" of what our enemies will do to us without the VIOLENCE or AGGRESSION they preach. Can you think of any example of this? Take away the "fear" of our enemies, imagine we can defend ourselves, what "awe" will those pseudo-leaders have? So far what are your thoughts? |
VaselineCrew:You are not so far off from the answer. The later statement being that which is true and not particularly the former. I'll explain. |
VaselineCrew:Well let's discus shall we. Tell me first what answers you can think of ![]() |
I tire for this country . So if mr A becomes president from this tribe or that tribe, how does it benefit you, YES YOU THIS NAIRALANDER READING THIS PERSONALLY?Mr A is still going to be a corrupt entity like his party and the rest of the politicians . If you doubt, just check out almost all private and government organisations, corruption, connection and nepotism are the order of the day and no be today e start. Every tribe is involved left, right and center . When will Nigerians learn and realise that the process that leads one to hold any political office in Nigeria is VERY CORRUPT and not for the innocent or faint hearted ?Ordinary university election we see how corrupt the process is, people with brilliant ideas or thought process cant just win it. Even if they somehow run, their fellow students wont just pick them, they arent rugged enough. You must be a badoo in one area or the other to win it .Ordinary association election like NMA, ASUU, NLC, so much power tussle just to emerge as a candidate not to talk of winning it . Ideology is secondary. .See eh, Nigeria's political process as it is now can never bring out a saint or saviour, it only fashions out HARDENED people (crooks) and that's why they deal mercilessly with the masses (even to the point of DEATH without pity), cause they know how difficult and how they fought to get into the corridors of power. The practically sold their soul for it. The only people that dont get scarred getting into politics are those people who a God father does all the dirty work for, hand picks them and anoints them as candidates (you should know a few of them ) But when they get into power, they become puppets, their God fathers rules through them (afterall a God father is not a father Christmas, he picked such ones cause they can be easily manipulated by him to do his bidding) and if they refuse to cooperate, the God father will display his ruthlessness on him and he must be ready to fight TOOTH and NAIL to win or chicken out and still remain his innocent self. Now if he chooses to fight, he must be willing to go to any length to win, as such he himself must pass through the fire and become ruthless like his God father.Once again I ask, what's there in the tribe of the president? ![]() All of them have practically passed through fire to get to that office , they only care about themselves and their own relatives from their tribe (and not the whole tribe at large) and a few prominent friends (the cabal).

Cashsteady:Nigerians definitely are Nigeria's problem including government and citizen. But regards lagos the problem majorly is urban planning. The urban planning is poor and despite it been poor, it is also poorly supervised. Places like lekki and even VI had no properly urban plan for sewage system, underground drainage system for both waste water and flood management. The road networks are fair but for a busy area like VI, 3 lane double roads should be the standard at least. It should have enough packing space in its urban planning, etc. |
Cashsteady:Lagos is the second best city Nigeria has but it is no where near the standard a city should have. Lagos has no proper sewage system. It also has no proper and modern drainage system. All it's natural streams have been converted to drainage outlets and it empties into the lagoon, instead of a waste water treatment plant then into water bodies or it can even be recycled for other use like agricultural irrigation. Lagos has poor waste management system. Open waste dumping is still common despite Lasg's efforts to modern it. Lagos doesnt have a centralized water system. Everyone bores for water themselves except for a few places like ikeja that still water corporation function but not all the time. The list is long. |
It doesnt make sense to big very tall buildings in Nigeria. If a fire outbreak should occur we dont have the capacity to put out a fire on the 50th floor or above. We barely even have helicopter support to pick of people from the roof top. I pity anybody wey dey stay or work for topmost floor, OYO is their case. |
JaneYave:You are also sensible too |
9japride:Exactly. |
Feminist hypocrisy
|
9japride:You just said it's TRUE indirectly. Read what you wrote again. |
thebosstrevor1: ![]() just get a friend and dont marry, friendship afterall is the goal. I have close friends I tell most things, I am sure most do. Living with anyone long enough will make you acquainted with them, that's the familiarity. If you get bored with your friends becomes you have known them too long maybe you should check how you relate with them. It should be "old but gold" and not "old and worn". Sex is very very important in marriage, that is why no matter the age of a man or a woman who are married, if they are ever caught cheating it could lead to the end of that marriage. Baba of 70 years can still leave his wife of 60 if he caught her in bed with another man, same as the woman. Just because they have been having sex for a long time doesn't make it meaningless to them anymore or inconsequential. The other term for sex is LOVE MAKING. Marriage is about love and sex is one of the ways to convey that love. |
JaneYave:Hopefully you are a female? First the wrong remedy. A man gets a side chick or marries a second wife. A woman gets a side nigga or allows her man cheat in peace. Second the right remedy. A marriage should be primarily about the happiness of a man and a woman. Every other thing is secondary, children, inlaws, society, money etc. If husbands and wives prioritize each other in a marriage issues like sexless marriage wont come up. |
Xenry:I no dey for complete generalization o ![]() |
