Unsuregirl, are you sure you are really 25yr old? Honestly you too act like teenagers. PLS GROW UP.

What do you want? quarrels,? fighting? separation? divorce? or Peace and marital bliss?

If you want the later, then you will have to do more. Stop nagging, be submissive even though you are age-mates.

Avoid heated arguments and learn how to get what you want from your man without demanding - It is the way of wise women.

[quote author=eku_bear link=topic=588077.msg7560321#msg7560321 date=1295411916]Is it 100% clear that Middle Belt is even part of this monolithic north? I understand Eziachi and Dayokanu's perspective, but I don't even think their interests fully align these days. Why is it whenever a "Northern" candidate is put forth, it is a Fulani man? Is the Middle Belt likely to be shouting "one North" forever?[/quote]My Sentiments exactly!

Let them ask Bukola Saraki if he still thinks he is an equal Northerner to the Northerner from Zamfara or Kano. Now the Middle belt know that some are more Northerner than others.

The obvious reality on the ground now is that it will take more than coming from a particular zone to win an election in Nigeria, which is good for our democracy.

@SAGAMORON. Goat head!!! You still  resort to covering your arse with those rubbish eeh? And am asking again, APART FROM THE USELESS INTELLIGENCE GAP EXISTING ON THE FLAWED IQ TEST RESULT PAPER AND THE PAGES OF NAIRALAND, WHAT EVIDENCE IN REAL LIFE SITUATIONS HAS PROVEN THAT YOUR WIDE INTELLIGENCE GAP GIVES YOU A MIGHTY BIG EDGE OVER THE REST "DUMB" HUMANS?

Concerning what you said about my girlfriend, my girlfriend is hot like fire. She is independent and a mini celeb for that matter. A lot of men were running after her, but a ''dumb'' person like me won her heart even without showcasing wealth. What happened? How did a ''dumb'' person like me win her? Eeeh?
Pls you jobbless guys should stop distracting my life cos when I decide to quit this and focus on my life, you come up with useless statements like ''I have ran away'' It's time to draw the curtain please. I wish I had time like you guys to perpetuate this sh1t. In spite of my stressful outdoor activites my brain is still on course battling two "SUPER INTELLIGENT" heads combined together.

OAMJ. So you still depend on your useless and heavily FLAWED IQ test results eeh? Ok. Using your trash IQ test too, kindly provide a link to a documentented research that shows that women believe that only 25% of the population are intelligent people.
flawed as it is, at least it measures an aspect of human intelligence accurately and it supports our claim that only about 25% of a population can be considered to be above-average intelligent and the margin is wide. If women dont believe intelligent people are rare, why do you think many of them kept asking for it on the other thread?

Just stop your rants/conjectures and I ask again: [size=13pt]Give me just ONE documented research link that supports this your "new sophisticated theories", otherwise SHUT UP YOUR YOUR MOUTH.[/size]

And also shows that 25% of these so called intelligent people have a BIG advantage over the remaining 75% people of the world. And also shows that all the 25% of these people are living comfortably and happily.
This is a digression, and I am not dumb like you to lose focus of a debate. The fact remains that only a small % of the population can be considered to be intelligent and the difference is clear/noticeable. QED.

But I will indulge you a little (though I doubt you have the brain to grab this). All things being equal, intelligent people will succeed and achieve far more results than dumbs like you. But unfortunately we live in an imperfect world and under  democratic rules that give equal weight to votes of dumbs like you and intelligent people like me. And many times we have dumbs and averaged-intelligent people (who are more in number) voting for dumbs to be in power and those dumbs take decisions that affects the likes of me. This is the reason why I support Sagamite's Geniocracy. Morons like you should not have a right to vote and if they do, the weight of their vote should be like 1/10th of mine.

Nonetheless, the chances of an intelligent person succeeding in an imperfect world is million times higher than dumbs like you and when morons like you gets into power and messed up a lot of things, it will take ONLY intelligent people like us to fix it. (eg, Okonjo Iweala, Sagun Agangan, Berth Nnaji etc)

Like I told you earlier, so a man has to present his IQ test result showing that he belongs to 25% intelligent people before a lady plants a kiss on his cheeks eeh?
I know you are dumb and have comprehension challenges, else you would have noticed/remembered that I answered this already. but I will help you by quoting my answer again and put it in bold.

OAM4J:
[size=13pt]There will be no need to present any IQ test result to those ladies. Your dumbness/stupidity will be obvious to the intelligent ones(ladies) as soon as you open your gob and start making unsubstantiated claims and using conjunctures instead of facts and logics to support arguments. Trust me, it is that easy.[/size]
The difference between the men with the highest IQ score and the average is HARDLY noticable in real life. It only exists on paper!!!
It is NOTICEABLE, only that dumbs like you will never see it. Sorry there is no solution/drug to cure dumbness yet. Hopefully & soon too, the intelligent ones will find a cure, and when that happens, I will remember you.

And besides FLAWED!!! Some women looking for intelligent men have ended up marring men with IQ scores of 70 without noticing it. I repeat again, there talk of intelligent man was irrelevant!!! MANY MEN ARE INTELLIGENT TO A SATISFACTORY STANDARD FOR THE LADIES.
Many women like your girlfriend? What can I say, tell her to accept my sympathy. I know some women are too dumb themselves to notice the difference and some who noticed settled for less because it is actually hard to find intelligent guys because (luckily for you) the intelligent people are not so many.

Give me just ONE documented research link that supports this your "new sophisticated theories", otherwise SHUT UP YOUR YOUR MOUTH.

BTW, get it into your small brain even though we have repeated it times without number, that when these ladies ask for intelligent men, they are not looking for 25% dumb people like you or the 50% (majority) average intelligent men, they are simply asking for the few 25% above average intelligent people of which you dont have the privilege of being a part. And there is no way 25% of a population can be referred to as many or an easy-get.

Even the FLAWED IQ test still shows that MAJORITY of humans are intelligent to an ALMOST equal level like I stated before.

I knew I made a mistake saying ALL HUMAN BEINGS, but when I remembered that some few humans are suffering from a disability, I corrected myself early enough before you thought of it. Go to my previous replies above OMAJ's IQ nonsense and see when I said MAJORITY.
FINALLY!!! May be there is little hope for you after all. How long did it take you to realize your foolishness? You now agree that the ladies demanding for intelligent men know what they are asking for.

And your claim of  having "new sophisticated theories" to fight the popular beliefs we were holding on to is nothing but empty conjectures.

Next time, think before you speak or just keep quiet - Cos if you learn to shut it when intelligent people are speaking someone might assume you are intelligent even though you are not.

And I accept you apologies on behalf of the good ladies who voted for intelligent men.

Read my previous messages again, I have been stressing that there are few people suffering from a disability who are not able to think properly. Fooool!! Why are you repeating me? Majority of we NORMAL humans are intelligent in a NEAR equal level. I am not saying perfectly equal. Am saying NEAR cos the differences are hard to notice when considering a wide range of activites and factors. Hope your dumb head gets the difference.
Why do you keep making a big fool of yourself. If only you can just shut it. Intelligent people dont make baseless claims.

Have you done any research or read of any research on any aspect of intelligence measurements that justifies your claim? I bet NO.

Well read this about IQ, even though I agree that IQ is not a perfect tool which fully measures the overall intelligence of a person, but I want you to look at the score distributions and tell me if you still want to hold on to your claim.

'IQ' stands for intelligence quotient. 'Intelligence quotient' informs you about a person's intelligence. With the help of specially designed legitimate IQ tests, it is possible to measure a person’s intelligence. By definition, the average IQ is 100. IQ score above 100 is considered as above average IQ score below 100 is considered as a lower than average IQ score. An IQ score much below 50 or above 150 is usually not noticed. It is observed that normal IQ score of half of the population is between 90 and 110, while 25% have higher IQ’s and 25% have lower IQ’s.

IQ Score Classification

Under 70 - Extreme low - 2.2% population - condition of limited mental ability which produces difficulty in adapting to the demands of life.
70-79 - Borderline - 6.7% population
80-89 - Low average - 16.1% population
90-109 - Average -50% population
110-119 - High average - 16.1% population
120-129 - Superior - 6.7%
130+ - Very superior - 2.2% population

Blackteeth:
@OMAJ. First of all thanks for recognizing that your first earlier harsh response to my comment was unlike intelligent gentlemen you both claim to be. I accept your apology if sincere, and I will cease to call you names. Your unapologetic uncivilized brother sagamite has shown that his bush Intelligence is all waste and has further proven that his theory of a very wide intelligence gap existing between humans is trash.

Now back to the issue. I think you just repeated all I said verbertim. I SAID SOME POEPLE'S INTELLIGENCE REIGN SUPREME IN SOME AREAS OF ACTIVITIES AND FALL IN OTHER AREAS, AND YOU SAID THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO PERFORM BETTER THAN THE OTHERS IN THEIR GOOD AREAS. HOW DOES YOUR STATEMENT DIFFER FROM MINE? LOOK IT UP AGAIN AND TELL ME.
I ALL I SAID WAS ONLY TO PROVE A POINT THAT SINCE YOU SUCCEEDED WHERE SOMEONE FAILED, AND THEN FAILED WHERE HE SUCCEEDED, ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE TALKING OF YOUR THEORY OF A WIDE INTELLIGENCE GAP? HOW DOES YOUR THEORY OF A WIDE INTELLIGENCE GAP WHICH YOU SHARE WITH THE FOOL SAGAMITE EXPLAIN THE STRENGHTS AND WEAKNESS IN PEOPLE'S INTELLIGENCE? SINCE I CAN GAIN FROM WHERE YOU LOST, SHOULD WE BE TALKING OF WIDE INTELLIGENCE GAP? I KNOW THAT PEOPLE'S LEVEL INTELLIGENCE DIFFERS, BUT I AM OF THE OPINION THAT IT IS NOT AS WIDE AS YOU AND SAGAMITE THINK IT IS.
No, we are not saying the same thing. While I agree with your proposition that some people perform better than others in their good areas (training, specialization, talents etc) I am saying we do not just declare someone as being intelligent just like that. For instance, if I am a scientist and you are an artist, the fact that I know a lot more in the field of science does not make me more intelligent than you, nor the fact that you know more than me in the field of art does not make you more intelligent than me.

Therefore, the only way we know intelligent people is to compare apple with apple. For instance when you bring 10 people with same calling, level of education etc, you will still find out that there will be 1 or 2 people who perform exceptionally well above the average. In that class of 10 people, while some will be regarded as dumb cos they are below average, majority will be average then there will be 1 or 2 people that might be above average, those are the intelligent ones. This is the whole essence of finding out people's IQ (Intelligent Quotient) to know whether the person is dumb, average or intelligent. (goggle/read more about IQ and bell curve)

So when someone is described as being intelligent, it simply means he is well above average. If i say for instance I need an intelligent driver, it means i dont just need anyone with a drivers' licence who can drive, it means I need someone who can drive exceptionally well. Hope you get it now, cos I am not sure i can make it simpler than this.

Blackteeth:
@Sandee. I now see you are a friend of sagamite. My brother, if sagamite is the kind of person you call an ingtelligent man who stands out from the rest, then I can say its of no use being intelligent like him. Even what he said about Idi amin being unintelligent cos he was evil has a deep hole in it. But I had no time to disprove it. Now you have to sharpen your senses cos the next thing I will say may sound like greek to you cos am now going very specific and deep. WHAT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND IS, THERES A WAY THE HUMAN BRAIN WORKS SUCH THAT A WEAK AREA IN YOUR OVERALL INTELLIGENCE CAN BE A STRONG AREA IN ANOTHER MAN'S OVERALL INTELLIGENCE AND VICE VERSA. Now let me explain with an example.
Consider the board games of chess and checkers which requires good use of the brain, player A beats player B in the game of chess, but when it came to checkers, player B has the upper hand. Lets assume that both players have the same years of experience in both games. When you consider that player A wins in chess but loses in checkers, will you say he is more intelligent than player B? PERSONALLY I BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE ASPECTS OF ACTIVITIES WHERE ONE'S INTELLIGENCE REIGNS SUPREME OVER THE OTHER, AND ALSO ASPECTS WHERE ONE'S INTELLIGENCE WILL BE STRUGGLING. NOBODY HAS THAT KIND OF UNIVERSAL INTELLIGENCE THAT MAKES HIM THE MASTER OVER ALL AREAS OF ACTIVITIES. WHEN YOU SAY ONE IS INTELLIGENT, IT WOULD BE WISE FOR YOU TO SPECIFY THE ASPECT. YOU MAY SAY THAT SAGAMITE HAS THE INTELLIGENCE OF A GOOD DEBATER, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN HE CAN CLAIM THE NOBEL PRIZE IN MATHEMATICS. THEREFORE MY CONCLUSION IS THAT EVERYBODY IS INTELLIGENT IN A GENERAL DEFINITION, BUT THERE ARE AREAS OF INTELLIGENCE WHERE PEOPLE REIGN SUPREME AND ALSO AREAS WHERE THEY LAG BEHIND. THAT'S WHY I SAID THE ISSUE OF INTELLIGENCE SHOULD NOT BE OVER EMPHASIZED, AND THE SO CALLED INTELLIGENCE GAP IS NOT NECESSARY WHEN TALKING ABOUT INTELLIGENCE IN THE GENERAL STATE. YOU CAN ONLY TALK OF INTELLIGENCE GAP WHEN YOU SPECIFY AN AREA OF INTELLIGENCE SUCH AS SPEECH, BUSINESS SKILLS, DEBATE, MATHEMATICS, A GAME OF PUZZLE AND ETC, BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL PERFORM DIFFERENTLY IN EACH OF THESE AREAS.
Oh boy!! How I wish you shut it already.

Apparently  you are not even getting it at all.  You are changing the focus of the debate cos we are not talking about area of strengths or weaknesses or specializations.  Let me come to your level and break it than for you.

We know that there is no one that is an island of knowledge or that is Mr knows-it-all, but when you bring people with the same strength, gifting, training, or specialization together, few are found to be way above average, these are the intelligent ones because they possess a superior ability to learn, understand and solve more complex problems than their average mates can do.



Blackteeth, take this as a friendly advice (for real). I dont want you to be part of a common trend I see often on NL, that is; people finding it difficult to admit they goofed when they did. Everybody goofs at one point or the other and that doesn't make him/her a lesser being, because like I said earlier no one is Mr knows-it all, but the mark of maturity is your ability to admit you goofed and move on. Truth is that such admittance  doesn't reduce people but earns them respect cos it means they are intelligent/smart enough to see their error and mature enough to admit it. The more people try to defend an error the more they look silly especially when they are dealing with someone who knows much better.

Honestly, If am in you shoes, I would have have long say things like "thanks guys, I see your points" or if am not fully convinced I say things like "You are entitled to your opnion, thanks" and walk away. The seemingly insults and jests not withstanding cos those are only side attractions that make debates interesting, especially in our African traditions context. Next time you might be the one with superior arguments and with the opportunity to make jest of your opponents. it is no big deal.
