Isn't it same Nigeria that has happened to Otedola, Dangote and Dantata ?

Our mindset is critical to our outcomes.

Why not say may Alaygbo never happen to her ? Isn't why she ran to Abuja ?

Americans are trained to say " God bless America" old or young. The American Dream.

I am currently in Germany and I have to tell you - Oyinbo are where they are through collective efforts - Leaders & Followers.

Africa is where it is because of its people 🌍

RIP to her.

Would you allow you own 16 year old daughter to get engaged??

Anyway, they are gypsies, their culture is akin to the nomadic Fulanis of West Africa (obviously without the cows, riffles and so on).

Some of them get married even younger sef.

You didn't answer my question to you, which is, where do you get this idea that bride price should only be paid for virgins when historically— across so many cultures worldover— that has never been the case.🙄

Another issue with your OP is that it assumes that the insistence by traditionalists that men be full-time providers has something to do with or is connected to the virginity of a woman. I would very much like to understand also where you obtain this preposterous idea of yours from, given that the traditional model of marriage — and this is across so many cultures world over — insists that for the man to become the head of household in marriage, he ought to take on, fully, the responsibility of provider. Essentially, when a man marries a woman traditionally, he not only acquires the title of head-of-household but also assumes the role of provider for the woman in the marriage; this is irrespective of the virginity status of both individuals in the marriage. undecided

Your entire premise seems geared towards perpetuating this victimhood mentality for men, without providing evidence for any of the insinuations made. I wonder if it is the case that you also believe somewhere in there that men are forced into marriage or something. undecided
You read to respond. Try reading to comprehend.

Go and read what I wrote again and this time, slowly so you can comprehend my point.

That chapter which is directed at those of Israeli descent instead insists that a non-virgin not be offered as a virgin, it says nothing of bride prices being offered for virgins alone. undecided

Even the term virgin used in the passage can be construed as single/never married woman as opposed to previously married or divorced woman or widow. undecided

ravensckar:
It's like you folks are just obsessed with women matter!

Every time, women this, women that. Shey una no get work ni? huh huh

If we check very well, the OP will probably be a TEEN who thinks everything about marriage revolves around knacking. Which one be "enjoyed for free?". "Fairly used" and all the nonsense descriptions that depicts women as commodities. angry angry

Marriage goes beyond knack. Being a virgin doesn't mean the lady will make a good wife. e.g ISRAEL DMW's wife. And being a non virgin doesn't mean she'll become a terrible wife e.g una mama, sisters and wives. cheesy cheesy

As far as I'm concerned, women are not commodities that you'll equate with all these nonsense descriptions. Make una dey respect women nau, abi una no get mama for house ni? huh huh
Nah me cause your misfortune?
Kobojunkie:
Historically and this applies to pretty much most cultures across the world, bride prices were paid regardless of virginity status -- for both virgins and non virgins alike. So I guess you need to explain to use where you get off believing that bride prices were only required if virginity was for sale? undecided
No sir, the origin of bride price stems from the scriptures and it is only paid on virgins but in today's world, bride price is simply for marital commitment regardless of whether a lady is a virgin.

But then, will you say you are not aware that sexual chastity which includes being a virgin till marriage was the norm especially in Africa and even according to the scriptures.. So what exactly is your point?

Exodus 22:16–17 (NIV) ​"If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the bride-price, and she shall be his wife. If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, the man must still pay the bride-price for virgins."

​Key Point: The passage explicitly uses the term "bride-price" (or a similar translation like "dowry" or "marriage-price"wink and ties it to the status of a virgin woman. It mandates the payment even if the father refuses the marriage, indicating a fixed value associated with her virginity


So bro when I put up this thread I wasn't trying to shade the female gender in anyway but just stating the fact.

tanigororo:
What you fail to understand is that Men Virginity is different from womens virginity.
Why do you think women reduce their body count and men increases their body count


It's easier for a woman to get laid than for a man to get laid, meaning if a woman has more than 1 body count she is a free distributor. But if a man get more than 1 body count we should hail him.

Crinkum Crankum.. You have made you point by saying you don't mind paying bride price on a lady that has gone through many men and that in itself validates this thread.

Any other thing you are ranting about is totally inconsequential

Non virgins. I for one can't date or marry a virgin.
This is the way we have learnt to console ourselves as guys but deep down we know what's up. Where do you even want to see virgin marry?

Pray you find a fairly used lady cos many of them have been terribly used.

We just dey spend money on a lady wey another man don scatter.

So sad
Romance › The Sad Reality Of Most Men Who Wish To Get Married. by otherway(op):
This thread is not to throw shades on the female gender but aimed at echoing the sad reality many guys must face if they ever want to marry.

The tradition of bride price especially in many African societies presents a significant and often painful dilemma for grooms in the modern era.

Men are expected to fulfill substantial financial and material demands to the bride's family to validate the marriage and legitimize their future children. This tradition places a massive economic burden on the groom.

However, the core of the dilemma lies in the stark contrast between the groom's sacrifice and the bride's premarital experiences.

The very women whose families command such high payment may have previously engaged in relationships where other men "graced their beds" easily and willfully, receiving the same intimacy without any enduring sacrifice or payment.

This creates a deep sense of injustice for the groom, who must pay exorbitant rates to legally "keep" his wife, yet perceives himself as paying for a pleasure others enjoyed freely.

This disparity fuels the feeling that men are forced to uphold a costly tradition even though the traditional cultural value of exclusivity (virginity) is frequently absent.

And NO. Air-conditioned City Metro Railway networks are NOT ''common in ''third world'' countries, so stop lying out of your hate for Nigeria.
I'm not a pessimist but I will advise you calm down and post this in 10 years from now.

This is not true, watch her video because i don't think you did
The story is so freaking confusing.

1. What prompted the home office to detect she was working over 20 hours? Cos ordinarily, except she was caught in the act or she tried to apply for something.

2. If she has been in UK for 3 years it is believed she must have finished her studies and in a form of post graduate visa.

In short the story no just dey straight forward and her tears dey even cover her words which makes the video hard to comprehend.

Which ever way, she did not have a good adviser.

No right of appeal for post graduate visa refusal but she can do admin review which she will most probably lose.

Her best bet is to find another viable reason do apply to stay in UK.

She should appeal to the local MP and make sure local papers and networks pick it up. Likely she will be allowed to finish her degree on compassionate grounds.

I would be 90% certain of this were it not for the anti immigrant campaign by Farage's Reform Party and that Robinson chap!

We dont know all the facts though because there is also a quota of classes that must be attended.
I think she has finished.

Its her post graduate visa that as refused... I believe this is the case. In most cases this is discovered when they want to apply for the post study visa

Only an Atiku/Obi ticket can remove Tinubu even before the election date and no type of rigging can save Tinubu.

But tell Obi that if he dares run without Atiku, he should as well not bother contesting cos he will be easily rigged out again and nothing will happen except the fact that he will never ever near Aso Rock again in this life perhaps in the next life to come.

Only a delusional person will argue this.

Not supporting any form of looting but if past governors and presidents actually looted through projects then Nigeria would have been a million times better.

I once dated a lady but we parted ways amicably.. Before the breakup she suggested that I start dating her daughter and I was like WTF!

The Bible expressly forbids it

Leviticus 18:17 states: "You shall not uncover the unclothedness of a woman and her daughter, and you shall not take her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter to uncover her unclothedness; they are her close relatives; it is depravity."

​Leviticus 20:14 also addresses this with a severe penalty: "If a man marries both a woman and her mother, it is depraved. Both he and they must be burned in the fire, so that there will be no depravity among you."

But God is the ultimate judge cos sometimes there is more to things we see.
