Ishilove: My brother, In fact enh, I am very proud of my pancake buttocks. If it aint broke don't fix it.

I agree with you.. the attractiveness of a woman like a spectrumappeals to different spectra of men

There is a man for every type of figure and vice versa

This thing killed Claudia Aderotimi who left from the UK to US to do this

Ashantiking: That person is lying to you.

So which is true.. I've seen Ghanaians also spend but not in SA...

Liveair: Hmm, instead of "woman right activism", women should be teaching themselves Proper SELF ESTEEM.

I totally endorse this

The first while important should have been accompanied with the latter.

Self Esteem and being beautiful the way you are

Reminds me of a song by Christina Aguilera

soulglo: Thank you. This is the funny part. It is actually a borrowed culture for Nigerians too. Before this was introduced to Nigerians people were referred to as the daughter of this or that or "she came from that compound" etc.

Can you name the parts of Nigeria that this happened to be so present colonially

Maybe in the North not sure of the South

Good.


Now to bring it home
Among the Yoruba and Igbo the ladies take the name of the husband
Nomenclature changes from the daughter of soso to the wife of nono
Whites brought Mr and Mrs.


It is not a borrowed cultures as some erroneously try to state on this forum.that is a classic straw man used every time.

One of then even went to bring a source to show otherwise yet the book shows it.

EnlightenedSoul: - Asian countries like China, Cambodia etc. The children take the fathers name, the mother keeps her own.
- South Asian countries tend to go the double name route. Canada is big on the double name thing too.
- Some Hindu groups keep their surnames.
- Belgium and certain other Europeans keep their surnames. Bosnia.
- Arab cultures (patriarchal) also keep their surnames in tact.
- Most matrilineal African cultures.
- Some Patriarchal African cultures do the same. The ones I know about are all Horn African cultures, but I'm sure there are others. Perhaps someone can help me out.

My S/O is Eritrean, and they keep their maiden names. Same with Ethiopia. My own culture too (Somali).

Growing up, when someone would call asking for my mom referring to her as Mrs.*Father's Surname*, she would make it a point to tell them that there is no such person, and would go on to correct them with her own "maiden name".

In actuality, to us there is no such thing as a "maiden name". The idea is foreign. Your name is your name period.

EnlightenedSoul: There are many cultures where it's customary for the woman to keep her name. I'm glad I don't have to change it.

They should have discussed it prior to their marriage. What happens now depends on them both.

Can you name some of them..

Sad

A syndrome fired by a mix of economic factors , ever demanding and sexed up public , low self esteem and a thriving booty black market


She is lucky to be alive

Habeebpain: I think it's childish when you start comparing heroes from two different franchises. I can write the story as I want. I'm just trying to make money. If I start analysing now you'll be surprised to learn that flash is stronger than hulk. And Silver surfer will thrash Thor mercilessly. But see how they downplayed Silver surfer in The fantastic four sequel.

Some people even believe Goku is stronger than Supes. Na dem sabi. Anybody can write down what he wants and give power to his/her characters as they wish.

Marvel has done amazing live action movies but they've flopped in the animated movie section. See iron man and hulk: heroes united.
DC on the other hand have made amazing animated movies (see The dark Knight returns part 1 and 2) but have flopped in some movies ( Green Lantern). I disliked Ryan Reynolds for ruining that character.

Another point is the Villains. DC has got more realistic villains than Marvel. I'll give Marvel only Joker to deal with. Your heroes will cross the line between good and evil.


As for me, my favourite super hero is Batman. He's the only possible one that can exist. Plus I think Nigeria needs one.

Correct analysis

Now you read comics... Not these movie fanboyz

irukandji89: Is there anyone here who thinks ironman 3 was crap?

like, why did they pansy-out mandarin's xter?

i mean, mandarin was badass in the comics, not a British speaking, epl watching, wimpy has-been actor.

no power from his power rings?? Comon!!!!

i get get they wanted to attract more audience than the geeks at comicCon, but the deviation from the comics by marvel is excessive

Yes they did

Moreover he is scary

They also overdid the split armour stuff... Too unserious...

Afghanistan?!....


OK....

The awaited revenge thread to the man who did the sex spreadsheet

@topic
A man has earned respect the day the woman said I do.that's why the decision to say I Do is more serious for a woman than the man.

Greeting should not be an issue but respect is respect.




@5minsmadness

You left out one category of posters always proving points up n down

Those who have cultivated an online persona of being married when they really are not.

Don't mind our resident pantie sniffers..
They will get kiss emoticon from the ladied....

Forget all these single ladies and those married females who come online to type long epistles because they feel oppressed in their matrimonial homes due to no fault of ours and find Nairaland as a place to vent their frustrations. Many of the married ones will never admit it but they will even kneel down to greet their husbands in their homes then come here and start spreading like peacock. The single ones shouting are still single for a reason. They are either small girls or they are old babes who have no respect and no man worth his salt will go near any of them for a serious relationship-hence their singleness.

You were already a man before you got married

Hml

striktlymi: Are you sure you saw the video? Where was the tapping of current

I tire...maybe Na spiritual current

Another tribalist thread in the making

Is a city promiscuous? is it not the people that live in it ?

You schooled in calabar from Godknowswhere, carrying your promiscuity there and now say calabar is...

There are immoral people everywhere .. finis

could be scripted; could be real

who knows

Donbrig: Money and Sex are two vital factors in every marriage. Severely lacking any of both could spell doom in any marriage, no matter how the man or woman pretends to love each other. Most women married to wealthy men often cheat due to lack of sex, but a marital life with adequate sex and money is not always a ritual. In my own case, in spite of my high level of sexual performances, my wife sometimes (jokingly) reminds me of the need to work harder to enable me perform very well in my financial life, as in my sexual life. Although my finance is not at its best at the moment. Now my question! Money and Sex, which is more healthier to quarantee a long term successful marriage?

Such generalisations hold no water

This thread should be named Marvel Films Fan Boys

I expected discussions on the key storylines

The Sentinels
Venom/Carnage
Hulk Vs Thor /Wolverine and the Hulk vs Banner Split

If you are talking of story lines

DC is still up there

InfiniteCrisis
Doomsday and the Return of Superman
Batman: Halloween
Green Lantern: Emerald Knights and Darkest Night


Marvel makes good films.... I love both of them

Any fans of Deadhorse?

Batman vs Predator..
StarWars

This is what they should have done since rather than all the hullabaloo with FIFA

Killer team

this is beevann kind of karmic justice

5minsmadness: If you don't know something, ask.
My team handled a similar case 2yrs ago. The only difference was that the woman had issued a statement of divorce which the husband did not honour at the law court. And she dud not take anything that belonged to him, that worked in he favor as well if not social security had already started bundling her back to naija.

The second case av been involved in, the woman left her doctor husband for the US, carried her marriage certificate, the children's birth certificate, the proof of ownership of the car he bought for her and the children's and the husband's visas, and finally the deeds to the family land. We simply made copies, reported the originals as stolen, sent her name and what she had done to authorities in the US and also places where she was most likely to visit, along with signed copies of the documents stolen.
She was deported in three weeks.

5minsmadness:
Been busy, will update this evening.
Thanks for following!

ok..

Dude.. how far with the zombipocalypse

5minsmadness: .x xx.

beeevan: Seeee...you love it too, who doesn't .

.. Mercy is a good thing too

beeevan: People commit these acts because they know that they might never get to pay for it, most people will rather wait for karma .

Actually...




























You are Right!
The God of the Old Testament is needed at times though

bellong: The extreme superiority complex of the Isreali is also a big factor. I only wish the Palestinians will respect the lives of their citizens. Over the years, they should have known that the Jews have superior fire power with the world powers clandestinely behind them. It is a lose-lose situation for the Palestinians.

Israel does not Palestine as its enemy
It sees the whole Arab world

Really sad

beeevan: I ll count my loses then, but i have to be sure am really helpless before I give up. I can't risk waiting for Karma that might or never come.

LOL... revenge beevann

bellong: It is a long term family wahala which may never end till Jesus come....

It is really sad though global politics, christain powers and the Holocaust played a HUGE part

beeevan: I don't believe much in waiting for Karma, people should suffer for their deeds right away. Any spouse that abandons the family to start a new life in a foreign country deserves a deportation, i won't think twice before spinning the yarn.

What if she is a citizen...and cant be deported

Shon Sir!

tayoccu: I honestly don't know what will satisfy you.
take a good look @ kaguya's dimensions, do you honestly think oro or obito:s dimensions can compare? see how difficult it was for obito to travel between them?
as far as we know kaguya might have an infinite number of them, some so perilous.
please show kaguya some respect.

Swiftboy: its not funny o! Well Palestinians just hate Israel's gut to be lunching rockets and use civilians as shield whenever Israel retaliate instead of choosing a permanent diplomatic solution.

The issue choi... no be today
Sad

vedaxcool: Okay, didn't know women being killed huge number is not a feminist issue!

It is a humanitarian issue.. in my opinion
