RomanceRe: Abiriba Man, Ejindu, Who Is To Marry 2 Women Does Different Wedding Banners by nigerialog: 11:04pm On Feb 21, 2018
Olalan:
This madness is fast gaining ground. How a lady walks with her two eyes opened into a polygamous union is baffling.
Ironic that most problems these days are from monogamous homes.
Brothers are killing brothers from the same mother and father.
Prostitution and adultery has nearly destroyed our society in Igboland these days.
The women are ADULTS and know what they want.

Meanwhile below is news about the problem in neighboring Imo state:
[b]
The Imo state Commissioner for Happiness, Mrs Ogechi Ololo, has appealed to men in her State to try to marry two or more women and stop the idea of one man , one woman as a way of reducing prostitution and redundancy among Imo state Women.

Speaking in Owerri state capital this morning, Commissioner Ogechi said Imo state has more women than men forcing a lot of unmarried women to commit adultery with other people’s husbands.

The commissioner said according to statistics, out of approximately 3.9 million Imo state indigenes, 3 million are women and only .9 million are men.

“I am not forcing you, but just encouraging you to marry two or more wives to reduce on women staying without husbands”.

Commissioner Ogechi told a conference of about 14,000 men who were receiving training in various life skills in the commercial capital.

“Our women are crying every day due to lack of men to marry and support them economically hence they engage in prostitution. So please try to work hard and be productive so that you can help our women by marrying two or more wives provided you are able to provide for their basic needs”.

“As government, we shall be giving some small incentives to such men provided you don’t abuse your wives”, said Commissioner Ogechi.

Imo state is said to have the highest level of prostitution in South East among young girls and women who are not in school or formal employment.
[/b]



Would you rather that those women become prostitutes?
Would you prefer that men who would otherwise marry the women keep "runs girls" and commit adultery mindlessly?

Please provide a practical answer to a practical problem.

Agreed but Women should make the decision of no marriage or dating if they are not attracted to the Man.
Exactly!
They should be allowed (given enough time and space) to make that decision.
They should not be manipulated in any way, else ... cheesy

Very true.


The best woman a man can say 'I do' to is the woman who's madly in love with the man.


Like 70-30 ratio.

It's not a guarantee that things won't go south but your ride will be less bumpy.


Marrying a woman who had to "settle for you" is a sure-way to a lifetime of misery and sorrow.
You are very correct!
A lot of bumps can happen along the road which would reduce the percentage, but at least keep the guy in control.

A man has to be in control (of the woman's heart) to have a blissful marriage, because women depend on men for strength and support.

If she doesn't love him enough, she will find another "shoulder to cry on" before long.

It is a twisted mix! grin

Nice article i agree with the OP, A Man should not force himself on any lady. there has to be mutual attraction between a Man and any lady he has intrest in. but why blame only men?why will a women accept a man's proposal when she knows she is not attracted to him?
I think women should be carefull when taking such decisions no reason is sufficient enough for a woman to cheat on her Husband.
The article blames men because in our culture the men do the proposing.
Women only do the accepting... grin

gentlegenius:
OP, you made sense anyway. But I think this issue is deeper than the way you see it. Men are mostly attracted to what they see but for women, attraction goes beyond what they see. It has more to do with how and what they feel. But men have the power to control women emotions. So when a man loves a woman, it's his duty to make her feel attracted to him.
Cheating and failed marriages doesn’t have much to do with lack of attraction. But it has more to do with lack of respect.
The girl I dated and dumped 4 years ago was so much in love with me and has deep feeling of attraction towards me. She was even the one that fell in love with me in the first place even though I was nobody and she had somebody who was begging her every day for marriage. To her, I was the most attractive thing on earth. I was even considering marrying her because no lady on earth has ever loved me the way she did. But surprisingly, she cheated on me the very moment I left for the NYSC camp. She couldn't even wait for just three weeks that I spent in camp despite all my promise to remain faithful and to make her visit me regularly wherever I will be posted to. Well, I overcame the shock, dumped her and move on despite the fact that she still want me back. Right now I am dating a young girl who I'm planning to marry in the next few years and I don't care so much whether she finds me attractive or not. All I know is that she respects me and I can manipulate her feelings and make myself attractive to her. If I can't do this, then I won't marry her.
She may be attracted to you but she may also be a hot-pant who would cheat on anyone regardless.
We are talking of normal people. grin

Christianity EtcOf Computers And Why Jesus Had To Teach His Adult Israelite Apostles How To Pray by nigerialog(op): 5:20pm On May 07, 2017
Why was it necessary for Jesus to teach his disciples how to pray?

They were adult Israelite men, and must have been thoroughly initiated into Hebraic religious practices on attainment of adulthood -after the 12th year birthday of Bar Mitzvah. They all must have prior prayer experiences in their lives, and may have even frequented the synagogues and the temple; so, prayer was not a new thing to them.

Why then did they request of Jesus to teach them how to pray?

The answer is that they made the request because they -like the majority of the population then and today -in fact, did not know how to pray. The disciples were facing an age old problem which many before them never surmounted.

Have you ever wondered why some prayers are answered faster than others; or why some people can cast out demons, while others cannot?

The short answer is that prayers are like computer commands which must name names; and, follow principles, protocols, and conventions before they can be accepted and implemented.

There is only one way to interact with computers, be they the simplest micro-controllers found on robots, PCs, or mainframes and super computers.

All computers are interfaced or controlled through commands.

There are many types of computer commands, each designed for specific types of tasks. The universe is analogous to a giant super computer the likes of which the human mind cannot -in its terrestrial state- fully appreciate or conceptualize.
Humans can only “see” parts of this computer, and only speculate about the rest. God designed the computer, and it runs perfectly. The computers we have today on earth are mere adulteration, or very cheap imitations and copies, of the real thing.

So, how do computer commands run, or how are they built? What are the properties of a computer command? The first is that it must have a name, and a location from where to execute. When Archimedes said “show me where to stand, and a lever, and I will move the earth” he was speaking as a scientist, but his statement encapsulates a universal truth. He did not fully understand the import of his statement. He was speaking physically and theoretically; but his statement hides a bigger truth, which is that names and locations are critical in the universal scheme of things, as in computer commands.
It is even more critical in prayers.

A computer program or command must have a location in the computer's file system from where to execute. Whether the program or command is to be run immediately, or timed to run at a different time, the program has to be in the PATH.

A Path is simply the location of a program in a computer's file system. Without this information, a command (or specific sets of instruction) cannot run. An example is to imagine that a man went to a certain bank, say UBA for example, and wants to make a withdrawal from his account. The bank clerk would likely request the customer to specifically name the account from which he wants to withdraw the money. He will need things like his name and UBA account number (notice the name and the location). Note that if the customer didn't issue any specific instruction, the bank clerk will simply assume that he wants to withdraw from any of his existing account with enough money in it. If the customer came with a check of his account in another bank, say First Bank, the clerk would likely ask him to go to First Bank and make the withdrawal there, unless he wants to deposit that check in his UBA account. These are very specific requests.

In the same manner, a computer user cannot run a program that has no name in the file system; or the location in the operating system's file system. Users also cannot run programs they are not privileged or permitted to run. The users can only run the program if they issues commands that includes the path of the programs from current location, and has permission to run the command.

This may be an oversimplified analogy.

Back to prayers.

A prayer is a series of commands issued to the universal computer making specific requests. For it to be effective, the person offering the prayer must have a user account in the computer, and the program (prayer) must have a name (specific request), and be in the path of that prayer request (be available in the location or position or standing in the heavenly domain).

God does not answer prayers offered at any time, in any location, and under any circumstance except in ONE very special case, and you will see the reason later in this article. This is why Jesus while on earth as a human being sometimes removed himself from his disciples to go to a different location to pray. This is also why God commanded Abraham to leave the land of his ancestors to a place that God showed him; and God promised to bless him there. It is also why Jesus told the mothers of James and John the sons of Zebedee that she did not know what she was asking after she requested that her sons be on the left and right hands of Jesus in heaven.
Jesus' reason? Only God can decide who sits at his left and right hand in heaven. Her request was not in the path -she had no standing to make such a request. What she was asking for was not available to humans, only to God.
It is like going to tell a bank owner that you will appoint his directors simply because you deposited some money in his bank.


Secondly as hinted above, the person offering the prayer must have an account with God.
For God, the first is that the person must have an account with him; i.e. have a username in this universal supercomputer. Only God can create this account, name it, modify its user privileges, rename it, delete it, or re-create it after deletion.
This is why God often changed the names of some people he wanted to work with, or people he planned to bless. For example, he changed Abrams name to Abraham; Sarai's name to Sarah; and Jacob's name to Israel. It is like a systems administrator creating new “power user” name and ascribing that new username with some special user privileges. God later gave this power to Jesus after his resurrection; and Jesus alluded to this fact when he told his disciples that all powers in heaven have been given to him, and that they should go and preach the gospel. So, Jesus can also manipulate this supercomputer, writing names, assigning and modifying user privileges, deleting names, and re-entering deleted names.

In a computer server domain, if a power user sends a printing job to the central networked printer, the print job will leapfrog other print jobs sent by other lesser privileged users in the printing queue. The print job of the privileged user will be printed first regardless of when it was sent. As in computer server domain, each universal computer domain "account" has user privileges ascribed to it, and these privileges can increase or decrease depending on human choices of action here on earth.
Using the bank example, again, it is like one person choosing to grow his bank account through careful series of deposits and withdrawals; another choosing to invest his money and grow his account even more; while others deciding to squander whatever money they have in the account.

This is why Jesus told his disciples to “lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: … For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” (Matt 6: 20-21). God is after man's heart, and can see through them very clearly. That is why Jesus advised his followers to put their treasures where God can have the opportunity of having their hearts -in heaven.


Thirdly, perhaps the most important point is that the power or effectiveness of human prayers depends on where humans store their treasures. Put in a different way, how rich you are spiritually depends on where you have chosen to place your heart. If your heart is set on things of this world, you will be very powerful on physical things of this world, but when supernatural challenges show up -the likes that define the course of this whole world, or your ultimate fate in it- you will be powerless. The great news about this fourth point is that God has limitless power or resources to meet far and beyond whatever desires humans have that conform to his will. God can literally do ALL things -nothing is impossible with him. God is ever willing to answer prayers, but they must follow guidelines.


Analysis
For prayers to be answered, the person making them must first have “divine currency”, i.e a name that God recognizes; and secondly be in the right location. To have divine currency is to set one's heart on God (God knows when your heart is set on him).
The shortcut for a person to set his or her heart on God, or to have a name recognized by God is through his son Jesus whose name has already been elevated above all names, such that “at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;” (Phil 2:10). When you live your life loving God and your neighbor as Jesus commanded, you will have the “locus standi”, the name, or the authority to say such things in prayer as “by the power in the name of Jesus...let this happen” (my own words). To say such a thing, you must know where your heart is with God and his son. It is for this reason that John said that for as many as received Jesus, God has given POWER to be sons of God.

"As many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:" (John 1:12).

This supercomputer called "The Universe" was designed by God, and the commands it carries out are very intricate.

Once you know and understand this, you will no longer approach prayer carelessly.

You would only pray when you are ready; which is when you have a name with him, and are in the right location. More importantly, you will not waste your time praying when you should be busy setting your heart on God first. That is why Jesus gave the example of someone who was going to make an offer in the temple, and while on his way he remembered that he had not forgiven his brother; he had to abandon the offering to first go to reconcile with his brother. This is contrary to what some Christians do these days when they go to pay tithes while not settling the grudges that separate them from God.

The Lord's prayer that Jesus ended up teaching his disciples is a complete prayer because it contains all the elements and principles of an effective prayer: It acknowledges God as “father”; worships him; requests his kingdom on earth (changing location by accessing the firmament of God virtually); surrenders totally to his divine will; trusts in him for sustenance; asks for forgiveness after forgiving others; seeks God's help and deliverance from Satan.

When you say the Lord's prayer, you ride a shortcut way to the heavens because you ride the way shown by a name that already command a universal authority, and you translocate yourself to the heavens for faster delivery of prayers.
It is the only prayer that is good enough at all times, and in all locations.

In the same vane, if you want to pray, first create a name with God and then pray with absolute specificity. If you want "a mountain to move", say so specifically, and if it is in your "path", it will happen.

higgs:
OP is talking nonsense. You make it sound like women are airheads who don't have minds of their own.Marriage is by mutual consent. A man or woman only cheats because he or she wants to.Even the attraction you talk about can fade with time.Human feelings can be transient and fickle sometimes. It takes wisdom to understand this.
A two-way passionate love is critical for a blissful marriage, my brother.
This is one of those things that is only realized when it is already too late, usually at the point of marriage breakdown.

As for cheating women, I am yet to see a woman who loves her husband passionately cheat on him. I don't say that it can't ever happen, but it is very rare.

Yes a woman can consent to marry you for any number of reasons than passionate love; example, you are: rich, famous, doctor, lawyer, any other professional, but still be sleeping with your: houseboy, gateman, driver, some street thug, etc.
But I bet that such can't happen if she was crazily or passionately in love with you.
Such type of love never fades with age, because it is biochemical and spiritual.
A beautiful woman may be following one ordinary looking poor man, and people would be wondering why she is crazy for him.
The reason is that they have the type of attraction this article is talking about.
It never dies, no matter what.

The rate of failed marriages is ticking up steadily in Nigeria and it doesn't seem like anyone is studying it.

“Unless love equals passion, marriage rites are never right; that's all!”
-Dr. Randolph



I have been taking notes -not necessarily studying it -just taking notes. In my notes taken from different stories of failed marriages particularly in the eastern part of Nigeria, I noticed a pattern.

The pattern is this: a man feels ready to marry and sets out to seek a wife.
The man focuses on the quality of the wife he wants: she must be beautiful, educated, intelligent, reserved (a virgin if possible), obedient, respectful, good home maker, and good mother material.
Most often the man is not really interested in whether she has a job, or the type of job she has, after-all he would be the bread winner and provider. But, in all this he forgets the most important thing to test or look out for, which is the MUTUAL-ATTRACTION index between BOTH of he and the woman. By “attraction” I mean PHYSICAL (not monetary, professional, status related, religion based, familiar connections, anything else) attraction.

Double emphasis: This index measures the physical attraction from the man to the woman and from the woman to the man.

This type of attraction is what builds and sustains the level of PASSION between the couple.
Ideally, a marriage should be built on divine love -Agape. However, humans generally struggle with this -by nature, and must be assisted by pure attraction. What most humans do naturally is to love based on what each gets from the other. Among many things that a person can get from another, nothing is stronger than passionate love. When everything else fails to keep the fires of marriage burning, passion never fails.

A lady friend once confided in me the reason her parents married and stuck together for 53 years till her father's death. She said that her mother told her that the marriage was simply sustained by quality and quantity of sex. The mother basically stuck to her husband because of the passion that existed between she and the late man.

One man that I know has being having serious squabbles with his wife for about 7 years now, and the signs aren't looking good at all. The marriage is now at the stage where the man constantly threatens the woman with physical assault. Going forward, the marriage -if it continues at all – would likely be joyless.

Another man I know has been having exactly the same problem, only that his own wife is determined not to be a good wife and mother. To further aggravate matters, his wife goes and comes as she wishes.
This marriage may continue, but the man's mental and physical health may suffer as a result.

The common denominator between these two men is that they married according to the common criteria I mentioned in the third paragraph, but without any consideration for MUTUAL-ATTRACTION. Both men were physically attracted to the women they married, BUT the attraction was one way. The women had other things that attracted them to the men EXCEPT physical attraction.

The men were ready for marriage, and the women were also ready, but the men did not test for mutual physical attraction. They merely were attracted to the women, and proceeded to propose marriage. The woman simply accepted because all woman in Eastern Nigeria wants to marry men of status and reliable income.

I noted that some men either mischievously or irresponsibly pretend that this is not an issue. In fact I have seen a lot of men who simply pursue women for marriage while totally ignoring the women’s feelings towards them. Some men beg, cajole, pursue, kneel down to beg, fall flat on the bellies, and grovel to heavens and back just to marry women with zero attraction to them. The women, after these emotional blackmails, marry them, and then set out to seek and keep men that they are truly attracted to. The same men (husbands) would then go about blackmailing the cheating wives with moral based arguments, emotions, and complaints of adultery. That is how one woman ended up having an affair with the pastor (a Catholic priest at that) of the couple's home church. Like the video in another thread on this forum, the man was thinking that simply lamenting and shouting about the sins of adultery being committed by the wife would sway her away from her chosen mate. That is a futile exercise because passion is stronger than reason.

A man getting a woman to marry him by all means is deceptive and inherently unjust, and should be ready to accept in good faith whatever comes later in the marriage, rather than freaking out and playing victim.

Anyone going to equity must go with clean hands!

Married women who date other men, and have been deceived into marriage by their husbands, stand on stronger moral grounds than their accusing husbands. That is why I ALWAYS blame the men for most of the problems that arise in Nigerian marriages, because our culture is male dominated. Western marriages are a bit different because mutual attraction is mostly the basis for most western marriages.

So, my advice is that Nigerian men should cease and desist from pressuring women into marriage because marriage is a life-long commitment. If she even gives you the slightest of cold shoulders while you are proposing, please head to the hills -FAST! Or pay dearly later.

RomanceRe: Girl Asks How She Can Induce Her Boyfriend To Rape Her. by nigerialog: 12:38am On May 02, 2017
Though the world is generally a mysterious place, most mysteries can be explained if one pays enough attention.

This one is very simple to explain.

When God created animals and humans, be created them male and female. Each gender has physical and behavioral characteristics which identify and define them.
Whenever each gender behaves in typical fashion, it is easily accommodated in society within that behavioral expectations; and when they behave atypically, they create bafflement and confusion on persons observing them.

Your boyfriend's behavior is not TYPICAL, and you know it. That is why you are mentally driven to the other extreme, which is to fantasize about him raping you. In real life though, you might turn around to hate him if he were to take up on your offer.
There are also men who fantasize about other men sleeping with their wives because the women may have come across as not too typical.
So they want to validate that the woman is typical by fantasizing about other men sleeping with her. In real life though, they may turn around to hate the woman if she ever does that!

Bottomline is that human beings should try their level best to live in ways that conform to societal expectations, even if they don't want to; because this saves society greater troubles.

Try praying for him and talking more to him about your feelings and your needs from him.
More importantly, tell him that his conduct towards you is turning you off, killing your value of him, making you lose love or attraction or whatever to him.
If he really loves you, he will try to "be more manly" with you even if he doesn't like it.
Love is a give and take thing. It should not always be about how he wants to live; it should also be about how YOU want to live.
Good luck! grin

grin grin cheesy cheesy

And I'm not a Nigerian again? You mean growing up in the most juju infested part of Nigeria (if not the whole of Nigeria), I have not been tried with juju? lol
The answer to your question is simple: Why did the Europeans (very few of them in fact) capture and rule whole parts of Africa?
Do you know how many Europeans that destroyed one of the most powerful shrines (with over 2000 human heads) in Rivers state? Just ONE.
"Armed" with a gallon of fuel and a box of matches.
The villagers ran away, while the white man simply returned to Europe with the pictures which he shared gleefully with the press there.
We Africans need to take dominion over things that God put under us right from the beginning of creation.
Fear is our greatest enemy. cheesy cool

Bros.. the worst thing that can happen to man is for him to deceive himself.

Spiritual stuffs cannot be scientifically explained. There have been cases where a man died on top of a woman and there was no medical explanation. And there have been cases where a sane man in his office or woman in her shop suddenly starts laughing and goes crazy. Even doctors today use spiritual powers to support their craft.

I'm not saying all cases like the above are Magun caused. Indeed we cannot conclude it's Magun as long as there is a medical explanation. But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist or its a myth. It does.

Many have headache as a result of spiritual attack that no doctor can fix. Even headaches that lead to madness but because headache is something that scientifically and medically exists, that doesn't mean the spiritual version cannot manifest same applies to Magun. It may have scientific names as you mentioned but that doesn't mean it cannot manifest.

That's my point.

And indeed Magun doesn't work unless both are married and the trapping of the two is very rare when it comes to Magun. Magun mostly kills and run mad.
Thanks for a very incisive submission.
Yes I totally agree that some things can NEVER be explained by science, as you listed above. In fact science cannot explain a hell of a lot going on in this world. All this piece is trying to do is examine a scientific possibility which, considering the factors involved -stealthy sex, quick sex, increased heartbeat and blood flows, women's natural mechanism against rape -scientifically proven; then one is compelled to tilt towards science especially in these locking cases.
Note that none of the couple thus discovered waited for hours before raising alarm. Most panic and attract attention because they feared the worst.

Why this doesn't happen to all these married women sleeping around these days is the question.
Even the dying or running mad angle you introduced is very rare.
Think about that for second.
Does it mean than suddenly only few men want to guard their "estates"? I don't think so bro.

A quick caveat.
This article only discusses the "locking" or "tying" phenomenon.
Nothing more. grin

Magun cannot work without the 2 being married.

Besides, not all Magun manifests in the form of trapping the two together. Some manifests in one of the parties involved dying on top(mostly the man) and some running mad (mostly the woman).

U never see anytin. Science ko.
Hmm, the "two being married" part is totally new information.

As for the "dying on top" part, it has not been investigated yet. In developed countries where all causes of death must be ascertained before death certificates are issued, they would have been investigated, and documented. In third world, it would simply be ascribed to diabolic powers when it may have been good ol heart attack which happens to some men with weak hearts during charged sexual encounters.
The running mad part also remains uninvestigated -yet.

Not at all sir. Just that I never hear of any single woman when man don dey stuck inside punnay..

Why always the married ladies? cheesy
Very clever observation!

Do you think that jealous boyfriends wouldn't want to put Magun on their girls after spending millions on them? Wouldn't jealous lovers put this on their lovers to ward off competitors? cheesy
The question is why you've never seen this in single women.

Romance"Magun" Explained Scientifically: Why Some Couples Get Stuck During Illicit Sex by nigerialog(op): 6:08pm On Apr 29, 2017
For years, news about couples getting stuck during sexual intercourse have made the rounds, and what usually follow such are intrigues, condemnations, scorn, jeers, and all manner of negative sentiments that demonstrate societal repudiation of such acts. Such story usually involves a married woman and her lover. As such, society usually ascribes the phenomena to “Magun” spells, or charms placed on wives by husbands to ward off prowling males who angle for clandestine sex with the women.

Wives are “private estates” which must be guarded by all possible means, including diabolic ones. This is a societal consensus, and it works where prevalent, notably in rural or semi-literate environments. Even occurrences in cities have been mainly within illiterate or semi-literate people.

This author is yet to read about any case that involve very educated people; eg top politicians who -by far- sleep with married women more than any other groups, professionals, bankers, doctors, lawyers, engineers, architects, and all other highly skilled professionals. Usually the victims or patients (that is what they are really) are traders, artisans, farmers, carpenters, bricklayers, etc.

The seeming selective effectiveness of this “charm” or whatever names they go by, needed to be investigated or researched. Could this be something purely biological, and not spiritual? More important question is, why is this voodoo consistent and never misses? When was the last time one saw a consistent and never-failing charm, such that works regardless of conditions and location? Often one comes across magic performers who perform all manner of stunts with sharp knives and nails in one location, but never repeat such in all other locations. There are countless stories of armed robbers who operated with “bullet proof charms” protections; but then one day they are gunned down by regular police operatives. So, what is so different about this Magun thing that makes it effective at all times?
In order words it must be a scientific machination, because only science reproduces the same result always.

So, Nigerialog.com decided to research the matter, and following are associated findings.

It turned out that there are two separate biological phenomena occuring in women and men, sometimes simultaneously, to create such “entrapment” or a “locking”. The first is a rare vaginal floor spasm in woman called Vaginismus which forcefully closes (literally) the hole in the vaginal floor deep inside the vagina. The name of this muscle is called levator ani, and is a very strong muscle that inexplicably shuts down before the vagina can be penetrated in certain cases. This occurs in select groups of women. It is a form of defensive mechanism built into the woman's resistance against forced sex.

The second phenomenon at work in these cases is called Penis Captivus, and is indicated by sudden swelling of the penis while inside the vagina during sex. The penis simply engorges and keeps engorging until the couples are locked in place. The first known documentation of such event, according to an article discussing this phenomena in the British Medical Journal was in 1729.
Several other similar cases were also discussed in this journal article.

What is consistent in all of such events as discussed by researchers is that, apart from incidents that involved illicit or clandestine sex by wives, there are also cases that involve normal couples, an example of which was a young couple on a honeymoon who got trapped also.

The other important fact from the literature is that all the cases were resolved without any form of voodoo or witchcraft.

But, by far the most important finding was that these events are caused by a form of panic attack often associated with stealthy acts, especially of the amorous kind. During such encounter, the men were too excited and too eager to complete the act; while the women were too excited and often may have had strong orgasms during the act which trigger both penis captivus and vaginismus simultaneously leading to powerful locking in place. In the case referenced earlier involving the legitimate couple, it was found that the locking only lasted for a few minutes instead of the hours associated with most publicly recorded cases. Researchers concluded that, perhaps, the legitimate couple only had incident of penis captivus not accompanied by vaginismus.

All the cases that lasted for hours were couples embarking on clandestine sex, often between a married woman and her lover. The reason advanced was that vaginismus was triggered by the women.

So, a married woman and her lover are likely to experience a combination of penis captivus triggered by the man's penile engorgement due to faster heartbeat occasioned by stealthy sexual activity, AND vaginismus triggered by a woman's powerful orgasm, or her natural defensive mechanism that helps her to ward off a would-be rapist. If the man's penis is already inside the vagina, and the woman orgasms, or panics due to fear of being caught in the act, she could trigger vaginismus; and when the man notices such powerful clamp on his penis, he may trigger his own penis captivus, and the couple thus gets powerfully locked up.

This seems to be God's, or nature's way of discouraging illicit sex.

In resolving majority of the cases, however, the women were administered with chloroform, or anesthesia, which “deflated” their muscles and set the couples free. Nearly all the cases involving strong ties were separated in hospitals, not voodoo houses or by way of strange incantations.

In one case where a couple got stock while having sex inside a church, they were separated after a prayer and some cold water. This opinion speculates that the effectiveness of the prayer is easily explainable in that the couples were made remorseful of their obvious sin; nothing kills erection better than a good sermon.

Conclusion

This piece recalls an article about a woman who said that her only orgasm in life had been while cheating on her husband. This can help to explain why this phenomenon is prevalent among married women more than single ones. This is a perfectly scientific phenomenon which can even happen to normal couples. This piece also about a woman who accused her husband of placing a Magun charm on her, but which caught the husband a few times. One then wonders why the “charm” caught its apparent owner. The information presented here also explains why this incident is rare among the educated class who would know to quickly engage the services of a doctor whenever such happens. Even lying down in one place for hours can seemingly resolve this after all muscles must have gone back to normal; but obviously such hours wouldn't be available to couples embarking on “quickies” hence the reason they are caught most of the time. Therefore, unless there is a proven herb administered by native doctors to trigger both of these biological events during clandestine sexual activity, it is advisable to keep the native doctor far away from the scene.
