Facebook? Er.
Well, he must have clicked a link that automatically registered him or he tried viewing some of those "OMG, see what a teacher did to a female student in a classroom in Japan". Those sites automatically register you and post on your behalf too.
The tagging could also have come from some of his facebook friends.

WHAT IS I.NCEST?
Sex between close relatives: sexual activity between two people who are considered, for moral or genetic reasons, too closely related to have such a relationship. I.ncest is regarded as a serious taboo in almost every society, although cultures differ as to the extent to which marriages are allowed between relatives. (Encarta Dictionaries)

CATEGORIES OF I.NCEST
These include i.ncest between blood relatives (consanguinal i.ncest); relatives by adoption or marriage (affinal I.ncest), and quasi-relatives (for example, a live-in partner/lover or foster parent).
Sexual relations between the most closely related blood relatives, that is, within the nuclear family (between parent and child and between siblings), are the most forbidden because they have the most serious potential for harm and destruction.

If this is categorised under i.ncest, then I guess it's illegal too. A lawyer is your best bet in knowing the fact.

Family / 5 Things Every Married Man Should Do Around Single Women. by NifemiOlu(m): 2:50pm On Sep 03, 2015
A wise man once told me that when I find myself around single women, especially when I find them attractive or interesting, I should mention my wife and family early in the conversation. I have found this advice to be very useful on many occasions. 

Fellow husbands, I have found the above advice and the other tips at the bottom to be essential in keeping my marriage healthy and strong. I want my marriage to be strong and healthy, and so should you! In fact, it’s one of the biggest responsibilities in your marriage.

 So let’s dig deeper into this subject. Where are some common places that you might run into this scenario? For many of you, it could easily happen at work. You could be starting a new job and find yourself around a lot of nice, new women. When this happens, you have to make the choice to embrace their attention or extinguish it in a friendly way by mentioning your beautiful wife and family.

 For some of you, you have been working around the same women for some time. You might have chosen many times to engage in flirty conversation or to go out with co-workers after work. If this is you and your wife is at home waiting for you, then it’s time to step back and assess your position as the husband and leader. Take the necessary steps to make your relationship with your wife the most important one again and don’t forget it. Lead, gentlemen, lead!

 Even though those were only a couple of quick examples, I know there are a few of you out there who need to step up your role as a husband. Those examples don’t apply to you? Then consider who you know and talk to at your gym, the grocery store, the local hangout or wherever. These “simple” places could produce difficult relationships that will harm your relationship and love with your wife. Man up and do what needs to be done for your marriage!

 Now that I have your attention, here are five things every married man should do around single women:

 1. Keep your ring on. There are very few exceptions for when that ring needs to be off, like when operating heavy machinery, swimming in shark-infested waters and the like. If you are about to enter a situation that makes you look at your ring and consider if you need it on or not, leave! Run! Get away from there! Seriously, get out of that situation; your vows, marriage, children and more depend on those important decisions. (Read Luke 16:10.)

 2. Hang up pictures of your wife at work. A married man in this position would be wise to pick out a couple of great and fun photos of him and his wife and keep them displayed at his office or place of work. Pick a time that was fun for two reasons: It will remind you why you love her so much, and it will make for a great conversation tool when others, especially women, ask about it. Update the image as needed to keep the people around you knowing your relationship is continuing to grow. Get that picture up this week and extinguish those flames. (Read Psalm 119:37.)


3. Keep eye contact simple and short. Don’t read this the wrong way; I’m not saying to be rude. I’m saying to be careful where your eyes travel and how long they travel when you are in the presence of an attractive single woman. You know that once you engage in the first serious look, you have signed the dotted line for more eye trouble. (Read more about that “first look” here.) Keep it short, keep it decisive, and move on. Get back to that image posted at your desk. Go! (Read Matthew 5:28.)

 4. Keep conversation general and professional. If you work around single women, there is no question that conversation will come up. It’s up to you on how you decide to speak with her. You can choose to keep it short and general, you can choose to keep it professional, or you can choose to keep it off of those and allow it go places it shouldn't. Be polite but very intentional in your conversations. If needed, again, always be ready to bring up something about your wife or family. Pull the pin, aim, and extinguish. Safety first. (Read Romans 6:13.)

 5. Talk about your wife and family often. Did I mention anything about talking about your wife in conversation yet? I believe I did, but this last point brings the idea to a firm home. The single women you engage with each day, if you have to, should be no match to your wife and family. Your family should be your first priority wherever you are and with whomever you encounter each day. Yes, each and every day. Keep it short, keep it simple, and mention your beautiful wife. Now pat yourself on the back and keep it up. (Read Ephesians 5:25-33.)

Important note: No matter what you have done with your current relationships with single women, these steps can and should be started at anytime. Your wife’s feelings are and will always be more important than the woman you need to take these steps with. Get on it!

 I challenge you to take these bold steps for you, your marriage and your family. Again, it’s your responsibility to lead!

Three factors were mentioned, which variables are applicable to the Nigerian woman? The high number of women approaching courts for dissolution of marriage don't fall within the variables mentioned in this research. The average Nigerian woman will go an extra mile to keep her family (even a widow). I still believe in the Nigerian norms and values when it comes to family and I know a lot of women out there that will keep their families intact with or without these so-called variables.

Rosenfeld points out married women still earn less money than their husbands, do more housework, and spend more time caring for children—factors that could lead to increased desire for a divorce.


However, if you feel these are not in any way related to Nigerian women, fine. That's why we're humans and that's why NL is a forum
Modified: plus the fact that many men are increasingly becoming irresponsible. The weight is just too much on many women.

Don't know exactly what to make of it when research of this kind are carried out in Chicago alone.

I think it will be better appreciated and commented on if it was done in a country in Africa, where values and lifestyle sort of impact on our decisions when it comes to family.

My thoughts though, I may be wrong.

I quite agree. Some of the variables mentioned above are applicable to Nigerian women and we've seen a high number of women approaching courts for dissolution of marriage. I feel some of the findings may be universal.
Family / Women Are More Likely To End A Marriage. by NifemiOlu(m): 3:16pm On Aug 25, 2015
Women are more likely than men to end a marriage—that's something that's already been established. But a new study casts that fact in a rather odd light.
Researchers had thought that was the case with divorce because that's the case in general. Not so. "The only prior research that had been done on who wanted the breakup was research on marital divorces," Michael Rosenfeld tells Live Science.
The Stanford sociology professor, who presented his findings yesterday in Chicago, looked at 2,262 American adults in heterosexual relationships between 2009 and 2015. During that span 371 participants split with their partners, either ending a marriage or a dating relationship.
Women unsurprisingly initiated 69 percent of the divorces, but the genders were split evenly in who ended the dating relationships, regardless of whether the couples were cohabitating.
If women were initiating divorce more often because they are more attuned to relationship troubles, they would also be more likely than men to end a dating relationship, Phys.org reports.
Rosenfeld theorizes women are actually more likely to initiate divorce because of what Time calls "arcane conventions of spousal roles." In the study, married women reported being less satisfied with their relationship than married men.
But both halves of dating couples reported about the same level of satisfaction. Rosenfeld points out married women still earn less money than their husbands, do more housework, and spend more time caring for children—factors that could lead to increased desire for a divorce.
Meanwhile, he says dating relationships "lack the historical baggage and expectations of marriage," making them perhaps more fulfilling to women's desire for gender equality.

It's easy to save. Before 'saving', edit the name of picture by adding .jpg to the end of the name of the picture. Then save. Enjoy.
