My sister if it means to buy that male child pls do oooh

Ee get why

Vincenzomum:



Thanks so much for the explanation now i understand that having a second wife or son is not compulsory and if he decide to get a second one to bear him sons it will be for his own selfish reason and nothing to do with his tribe

It is not for his selfish reason but for ancestral lineage and perpetuity. We call it Ahamefula

This life no balance at all

I have a female friend that has been childless for 9 years in marriage, looking for any gender as a child even if it's just one to call her own

Chivadoski:
All the time una go dey seek unnecessary attention,

Tell me the tribe that male child is not important ?

Olodo

Maynman:


Females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome.

That's for the observation
Modified now

sammirano:
Important enough to allow them live anyhow without regard for any elders including the parents and become nuisance to the society

Your sense is leaking.

Vyzz:



CHILDREN ARE important...


In every tribe not just in Africa


But one of my uncle had four girls only and nothing dey happen. They are all grown up now


Another had four boys too only

That is the correct thing to say

endy69:
I am igbo and I even place value more on female children. They are very lovely but in all, male or female just love your kids. Dead man no know wetn be family name. The present igbo generation place no emphasis on male child. Male or female I thank God and will love him or her

Thank you for this. Parents should love their kids irrespective of the gender.

@the bolded. My father does this too. He place value more on us female kids than my brother.

Everytime Igbo this, Igbo that.. what's wrong with you allll........... Why can't Igbo respect themselves? We always get entangled with these foreign tribes who don't respect our affiliations.... This case can't be on this front page if only the MAN married an Igbo girl.
Pls let do things codedly pls within ourselves

Romanoff:
Hmmm.

Even if the man is woke, if his extended family isn't woke, I pray you have where to get male child guaranteed.

Cause in many cases I've seen, a wife who doesn't have a male child for her igbo husband is sitting on a one legged chair in that marriage.

It's even worse if the wife isn't a fellow Igbo woman. Igbo women can't inherit their father's property culturally and even when it comes to their husband's property, they are thrown out if they don't have a son.

It's now archaic culture, it was longed abrogated by d supreme. Female child can now inherit their father.

SUPERPACK:
It has to do with inheritance rights in igboland. Only a male is considered when it comes to inheritance, it is also important for the family name to continue in Igbo culture and only a man can do this.

By right it is not compulsory to have a male child and only your husband can decide if he needs one badly and cannot forgo.

I know so many Igbo couple living happily without a male child and are now old.

I am Igbo too and place no importance on male child, all children are important and non is more important than the other.

If he's a traditionalist, he might make good his threats but if he's a modern guy, male child means nothing. In igbo culture, a daughter might decide to carry on the family name buy not marrying and give birth to a child illegitimately, so not having a male child is not an excuse for a second wife

Hmmm

Chivadoski:

I pray God give you a male child to avoid family crises

Well for igbo people it is too important or else a wicked uncle might wanna inherit their properties and wealth when they passes away, no one wants to suffer and see another eat it all

You are a slowpoke for mentioning Igbo. Them swear una for mentioning Igbo? After una deny Igbo right for free and fair elections. You have the guts to criticize our culture.... Pls discuss your own cultural palaver. Pls we have suffered enough from abuse

Not with the widows I'm seeing without sons.

You are not well informed.

With the way Nigerian girls in particular and female are useless this days, who won't want a male child.

Female child can Inherit Thier father's acquired property not inherited property.

lol someone gave his personal opinion on a faceless forum and that makes your husband reason for needing a male child selfish. Hey calm down!!!!! It is not an easy ride. Be patient with your husband on this issue that is if you really love him ooooo I don tell you

In Igbo Tribe and In Africa as a whole,Male child is important...

All girl child or female daughter will one day change their surname...

Only a male child can continue the name of the lineage for another generation to come...


All child is important but male child is importanta

I am a proud igbo man and if you don't have a male child ,you are not complete bro... you MUST have a male child ...

[quote author=folake4u post=121435781]



The way you guys throw out culture is insane, who would not love their children both male and female, because you are educated you want to tell u don't see why having a male child is important!! Haba in Africa!! How many female fighters are fighting in Ukraine? Please don't get me wrong girls are as much that important to us, but there is a reason why the word "Manpower exists, and male children are important to handle such things in a good guidance from the ladies as well, that's how created it, may we no dey form anything cos we got western education, even china, India and so on nobody want to lose his culture and having a male child is a great feat to attain both for the husband and wife]

.

It's only a useless culture that gonna value a male child more than a female child... Such culture is bad and lack humanity... There is a difference between reality and culture.... Can you tell couples who got married for almost 5 to 10 years ain't got no children and God later gave them females child after all... Can a culture brainwashed such man that a male child is valuable than a female child.... Think deep.............. I support reality coz God is the given a child no human...

Vincenzomum:
I am married to a Igbo man. We are based in Italy. We have 4 children 3 together. I have 3 girls for him. I tested positive for baby number 5 and we were discussing about the gender, my husband said something that makes me feel so bad.

He wants a son so bad. He said in Igbo tribe, a man is nothing without a son. I asked him what if we had another baby girl he said he will have no choice but to go to Nigeria and marry another woman who will bear sons for him so he can be a real man.

I asked him if he was serious then he changed his words saying he was joking, he doesn't mind the sex of our baby as long as the baby is healthy that is what matter.

I have been restless since he has mentioned about marrying a second wife even though he said it was a joke but I know that he wasn't joking, he was serious.

I want to know from igbo people, is it true that a man is nothing without a son and also what if the wife only bore female children is it compulsory for the man to marry a second one in Igbo tribe to bear him sons?

I want to ask u something and I want u to be sincere about it.
Pls if ur father has u and ur sisters only without a male child amongst U, how will u feel about ur family?
Tell me d truth about it. Tell me without any atom of hypocrisy pls.
And as ur2father is getting older how will ur family feel when all of u girls had gotten married and left?
Say d truth so that God will be happy with u.

Archaic hogwash.

To help him for his drug business

Imagine placing premium on male children, giving them your all and then they grow up to come on the internet and say disgusting things about you. Unconscionable 🤮🤢
