Family › Re: Our Families Are Against Our Marriage by pickabeau1: 8:42am On Nov 08, 2013
do you love him..

Hope you are employed and have a source of income for yourself first

Are you ready mentally for the isolation and fighty fighty which will occur at the marriage ceremonies

Are you ready if your MIL or mum does not come round for omugwo

Are you ready if your husband starts abusing you and their is no one to caution him

if you are, please do a court marriage and start your life

They may come around.. if not love and money conquers all.. take solace in that

You do not marry a spose but the family too

This statement contradicts the feminist mantra ////


lynpetra: 2sexy,you guys dey misunderstand the babe.I don't see anything wrong with her previous posts.Although I always advocate that ladies should go out and work for their own money,guys must still spend for their babe.No guy go tell me say him never give him babe money,or buy her gifts.They can actually come to NL and rant.I can only blame girls who are overly dependent on their man because no be everytime money dey dey man pocket.Life isn't always rosy!



The babe is entitled to her own opinion and so all those bashing at her are just wasting their time.

Mujah1deen: they should pray and keep praying, Allah knows best ,he knows why he gave you this kind of husband, and maybe it is your duty on this earth to change him.
That cannot work
There is a huge potential for loss of life
Violence of any sort should not be condoned...

A seperation for a period (6 months to 1 year) may be an option before the finaliity of divorce

eh ya,,, u are too tired to process the post...

ish is sh*t

posting data from sources that do not reflect the reality on ground is the proper definition of kitchen stats

Nigeria has a modest literacy rate (60%) of course skewed by the high illiteracy up north and u come here saying we are illiterate
http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/nigeria_statistics.html

Just calm down and re read the post again...

Divorce is an option in my book

Marriage is not by force



chineloSA: The minute we start accepting that we have a problem, the minute we can resolve the problem. When the literacy rate is so bad, how on earth can we have an empowered society. How on earth do you expect woman to be on par with man in a society which has always been patriarchal. huh huh huh huh

I was trying to tell Pickabeau1 that staying at home and working is different from staying at home doing nothing grin
Anyhow u spin it, some women choose deliberately to be home makers to focus on their kids
I have so many examples around me

macjive01: One thing is certain im not going to let her have her way. No matter what it takes.
Hoping to talk her out of it.

Man, I wonder how people could be so heartless.
Her only concern is the maid's "witch" kidney turning around to damage her daughter's other organs as the doctors warned could be a possibility.

I pray for such in JAH's name

This is not unique to nigeria

even in the great US of marriage is still seen as a culturally significant rite

An article by a feminist...


http://www.slate.com/articles/double_x/roiphe/2013/10/marriage_and_the_dutch_what_americans_could_learn_from_the_conjugal_indifference.html


[quote author=Stånd]I think its high time JOBLESS women are stopped from getting married. Financial independence and a good dose of self worth and dignity is needed in situations where the MAN keeps ABUSING his wife knowing fully well that she has no life outside the one he provides for her.

#Again...Naija 'I must marry' mentality, follow-followism, family and peer pressure and the society at large contributes to the problem of single but matured ladies in this country.

......
I use Rita Dominic as my reference plus the insults and abuses she gets on this site alone....Why won't a woman like that rush into marriage with a beast![/quote]

Which gender (in)equality are you referring

Girls getting first or 2 1 is not news.. they beat guys in school...
they work offshore as engineers, telecomms...just like d guys

they own businesses...tara, bmpro, zapphaire events are all indudtry pacesetters

Which& inequality are you talking about

Instead of using data from desk analysts as diaspora e- warriors do , lets talk real life ish
Show me a woman denied an education because of her gender or a job or whatever....

chineloSA: Ok, perhaps outside of Nigeria. Gender equality is very bad in Nigeria. Talkless in Government. If you see those few people, especially when they are being celebrated, like the ones you quoted, that should tell you alot. smiley smiley smiley

Woman in Nigeria would not be falling victims of abuse and they would not be choosing husbands based on money. So lets not deceive ourselves.
Seeing those 1,2,3 people infront of your eyes is not representative of woman of Nigeria. Seeing woman driving big cars funded by husbands does not mean anything. cheesy cheesy

I refer you to a few sites. Go to government websites and UN sites. So woman in Nigeria are not emporwered. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy
Got this Map from Wiki rubbish, thats the least I could do for you for now.
Green - ( most gender equality) most empowered, red- ( least gender equality ) least empowered.

Islam › Re: Would You Marry A Second Wife If You Were Wealthy? by pickabeau1: 1:03pm On Nov 07, 2013
khattab02: that is wrong Islamically. It is Haram! A woman can't be married to two men even logically.
Good to know Islam supports common sense
That statement should go to those saying polygny and polyandry are two sides of the same coin

naaaa

bukatyne: shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked

So we can infer that a woman that accepts her hubby marrying second wife is a phool!

EOD
Thats not what i said, the phool is the man who will be the second husband

Why share a woman with another man when i can get my own harem grin grin

@chineloSA.. women are free to be economically empowered..
Nowadays females have access to education and employment opportunities
I have female colleagues and coworkers who are running tinz

The best student in Bells is a female who even had to drop out of Unilorin cos she got pregnant at 18

Moreover with more people like all you here who will not take abuse, this syndrome will die out



chineloSA: Anyways, I did not say give us the world to rule. I said woman should be given Economic power and freedom. Meaning the world should be enabling for woman to attain financial independence and freedom. Not when you want contract you have to be laid etc.

I dont know what men want!!!!! huh huh

You don't want woman to attain financial independence. At the same time
You don't want woman marrying you for money so that we can be comfortable.


What have we done to the male specie, to deny us Economic Freedom huh?? Eeeeeehhuh??

She is .........

do you refer to the same males that some of you refer to as randy goats, cheats, reprobates, pant chasers abusers and all the complimentary words you guys give males on this forum..


interesting ...


Caracta: Girls run their mouths anyhow and leak secrets over a bowl of popcorn. Guys (most of them) don't have time for petty talks. Girls sulk and cry when you hurt their feelings and keep malice for months. Guys talk to you about it immediately and 'force' an apology from you, especially when they are true friends.

Don't you just love them? kiss kiss kiss
