Yoruba men are handsome, but there is one thing about them that doesn't just catch me.

argent:
Osisi please can you change the title of this thread as it has been established that not only yoruba poeple are guilty of this.

Abagworo:
@osisi.i might agree with u that yorubas speak their language a lot but unlike u i very much envy them and might say i'm proud at how they represent nigerian culture.i believe that why igbos tend to adopt pidgin more is because of difficulty in accepting a centralised language or even accepting being one ethnic group.a glaring instance is the extinction of igbo language movies from nollywood and replacement with igbo-based english language movies.the yoruba language movies are however thriving.we should all speak our languages and anyone who feels left out should learn yoruba and more African languages.

She is not the first Non-Edo indigene to be VC. And she has worked in that place all her career.

So what's all the noise about??


PS: the husband(last name) is from Delta state.

Uche Edochie, chief executive officer, Zee Virtual Media loves the business he does. Edochie runs an on-line adult toy shop. Demand for his products is high, but his busiest month is February. “We are very busy particularly in this month of February because of the high demand,” Edochie says. Although he was reluctant to say just how much he makes from selling the “toys,” he does admit that the majority of his clients are married people and senior citizens. “Most of our clients are married people so I would put their age between 25 and 45 years old. But senior citizens buy from us as well.” Edochie said.
Global statistics say the adult toy business is worth several millions of dollars. According to a Durex global sex survey, Australia has the highest vibrator use reported at 46 percent while India has the lowest at three per cent. Vibrators are used by almost half of the population in the United States.
Comfort Eshiet is a gender advocate. Eshiet says she is sure that “many people are buying and using adult toys.” Edochie says shops dealing in such products are thriving in high-brow areas like Ikoyi, Victoria Island and Lekki in Lagos, as well as in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, and Port-Harcourt, Rivers State. But not many of such shops conduct their business openly in Nigeria. Some like Edochie's Virtual Media prefer on-line dealings. Edochie turned down all entreaties by The Business Eye for a face to face, interview, saying that he conducts his transactions strictly on-line.
Adult toys are accessories that help make sex more pleasurable. Often they are modelled after the male and female Instruments, and come in various shapes and sizes. Most common among these are vibrators, designed mainly for women. Vibrators look like the male organ but offer levels of sexual stimulation that cannot be provided by any human. That is why many see the vibrator as a great addition to sex play. Experts say a vibrator is the easiest way for a woman who has never had an orgasm to experience it.
These can be used in several ways: externally or internally, or sometimes both at the same time for penetration. Vibrators can be outlet-powered (electric vibrators) or battery-powered. Adam's Cock Dong, an example of a battery vibrator, is a powerful realistic 8 inches long vibrator that goes for N12,500 at Zee Virtual Media shop. Another very popular vibrator is the Silver Bullet, popular because of its relatively low cost: It goes for N2,500.
Explaining the difference between the two, Edochie says that while outlet-powered vibrators can last for years, the motors in the inexpensive battery vibrators are built to last for 10 hours of use, which probably translates into 20 uses of 30 minutes each. But, the lifespan actually depends largely on the user, Edochie explained.
But females are not the only ones that use intimacy gadgets. Men do too. Toys in this category include Lacy Sexy Sista Doll, an inflatable and vibrating life-size doll with love holes, which, for portability, can be inflated or deflated. Experts say it is convenient for travellers, so also is the Futurotic Travel Pussy, a five inch stretchy and realistic black masturbator. While the Sexy Sista Doll costs N12, 500, the Futurotic Travel Pussy costs N3,999.
The Love Machine is yet another female intimacy gadget. Dildos are designed to give more general satisfying feeling of fullness when gently moved in and out of the vagina. Many dildos come in a rainbow of colours and a variety of shapes, texture, and styles. Edochie explains that some dildos come with harnesses which could be strapped onto the pelvis, holding the Love Machine just over the pubic bone. Edochie says, men also use dildos to enhance their sexual performance. “This is a powerful fantasy for some men,” he says. The Eves Harness Strap-On-kit contains not one but two dildos and goes for N16,500.
But why do men and women use adult toys? Besides what he describes as the “factor of the increasingly permissive society,” Nicholas Ukandi, a Lagos-based psychologist, says people are being pushed into the practice by “tension and harsh realities of society.” 'It is easy to see that even married people hardly have time for their partners. A situation like the one in Lagos where people wake up very early to go to work and comes back very late each day does not provide ground for a healthy sex relationship. Any normal person working like this is bound to be tired, and given this condition, the husband or wife may resort to adult toys,” he said, adding that this is usually the case where the one concerned does not want to be involved in an extra marital affair.
Some of those who use adult toys do so for self-discovery, spicing up a long-term sexual relationship, helping experience orgasm, extra stimulation and sometimes, just for fun.
Obajimi Gbolahan, an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at Nordica Fertility Centre, Ikoyi, Lagos, explains that “there are a lot of psychological components to sexual ability which has to do with emotions and the environment.” “Medically, adult toys are legal,” he explains “but it is their illicit uses that make them abominable.”

when u finish handling the sins most prevalent in your soul, you can start running your mouth

there is obviously something very wrong with you. it is obvious your parents did not bring you up well, assuming you had parents at all. one is inclined to think that your mother was a crackhead prostitute like you and your father a motorpark tout(when he was not engaging in armed robbery)

DO NOT MA\KE THE MISTAKE OF INSULTING EITHER OF MY PARENTS AGAIN

you misconcieved abortion , sorry excuse for a human being disgrace to the yoruba tribe, christians, women and the human race.

bloody prostitute - you are a walking poster chiild on - 'why you should never become a christian'
i wonder at your friends and their poor taste - it seems anyone no matter how many bricks are short from their stack, is welcome onto the bash Islam express

tpia:
and why are you yourself seeing fight? If not that you're wired for fighting?

All I did was bluntly explain a few facts since she was having difficulty understanding what people are saying here.

tpia:
'


look, what part of my posts dont you understand? Where did I say a non-Yoruba is speaking Yoruba because I'm in the vicinity?

I must say very few people understand your thought process because from posts like these, one has to wonder if you're typing while drunk.

And why are you getting bent out of shape at the thought of other tribes speaking Yoruba to each other? Like i said, it depends on the circle people grew up in and move with. Geddit? If you know of Yorubas who grew up in Enugu, who also speak fluent Igbo, then simply state the fact that you observed so. End of story.

The people said that I should have rolled tanks to crush it but if I had done that, its effects would still be with us today because sharia was started on political grounds by the young man in Zamfara State, claiming that some people were attacking him but that he wanted to be untouchable.
“But I had told him that if sharia was not from God, it would fizzle out. He later cut a man’s hand for stealing, but after nine months, I asked him why he was no longer cutting thieves’ hands and he replied that the cost of maintaining the one amputee was enormous.

“Before I left office, he (the Zamfara state governor) came to Aso Rock and embraced one beautiful lady before me. When I reminded him of sharia, he told me; ‘didn’t you say that it would fizzle out?’ So, I trust God.”

stillwater:
Not necessary. Most Igbo kids I know of that grew up in Lagos, can't speak Yoruba, only Igbo. It depends on the people concerned jor.

earTHMama:
Speaking a language is not the only test of cultural acclimatization.

girlfriend for an igbo man is not feasible. they always want a wife(there is nothing wrong with that). the approach is what makes me angry. how can a well-educated igbo boy expect you to marry him just because he is giving you a ride to school? i marvel at their self confidence.

sistawoman:
Please seek a licenced Marriage Counselor.  Find one that is Nigerian therefore you dont have to spend two sessions explaining to him/her your culture.

Make sure this is someone that you both agree with.

Ask the counselor questions-pre interview:

Faith
Marital status - stay away from single counselors
years married[/b]years licenced
where you attended school
Age

Check with your job they may have an employee assistance program that offers free martial counseling

Both of you have to agree to attend and agree to do the work.

I am married this is my second marriage, [b]If I had worked harder at my first I may have been able to save it.  Please work hard.  Please try to save your marriage.
There is alot of hurt behind having a spouse cheat on you and he really needs to understand that he turned his wife against him when he did that.  He has to find out what she needs from him to forgive and he has to give it.

But the wife has to at some point forgive or leave the marriage.  You cant forgive and still hold it over his head.  But you cant forgive unless he does what is necessary for you to forgive and only the injured party knows what it will take to get over the cheating.

I really pray that you two work this out and make this work for the sake of your child.  But if it does not then please dont ever forget that you have a child together and that for him you have to get along and never forget him.

My husband started extra-marital affairs 4 months after marriage, i called the girl and told her to keep off if she knows what its good for her politely. The girl called me back apologising that shes sorry that My hubby never mentioned he was Married besides he never wore a ring whilst they had an affair!

MOZILLA FOR YOUR INFORMATION, I DONT HATE YOUR MOTHER AND ANY MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY,
There's a limit to everything!!!

We dont communicate as Couple should, I had a Baby here in the UK, I called his Mother and one of his brothers to tell them. His Elder Brother didnt call me up till this very moment to congratulate me and hubby didnt see anything wrong with it.

tangent:
that is where the difference lies. a typical igbo man expects you to bow down on the first date. i own this, i have that and i want you to be my wife. no questions asked.

tangent:
you can't even deny it. what a man!

you can say that again. yoruba men are subtle with their approach and not as boastful as most igbo men. an igbo man expects you to fall in love because of his wealth. the ego is too big and they think relationship is about money.
