Should we not be concerned that just as Lagos discriminates against non-Yorubas when it comes to the spoils of government to which they contribute revenues, oyinbos and Asians discriminating against us blacks because we have failed to use our equal basic intelligence to develop our continent, but prefer the easy way of helping other races develop even better than us?

TheBedWench:
The one-drop rule is a social and legal principle of racial classification that was historically prominent in the United States in the 20th century. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of black blood)[1][2] is considered black (Negro or colored in historical terms).

This concept became codified into the law of some states in the early 20th century. It was associated with the principle of "invisible blackness" that developed after the long history of racial interaction in the South, which had included the hardening of slavery as a racial caste and later segregation. It is an example of hypodescent, the automatic assignment of children of a mixed union between different socioeconomic or ethnic groups to the group with the lower status, regardless of proportion of ancestry in different groups.[3]

The one-drop rule is defunct in law in the United States and was never codified into federal law.

I know you’re not asking me but the answer is not complicated.

Those men who want different women while still married can start by being honest at the beginning of the relationship. Let the woman know that’s what you are into. There are so many women who are okay with sharing their husbands as long as the man fulfills his part of the bargain whatever that looks like in their specific situation. The problem is men most of those kind of men don’t go for the women who are open to such arrangements. They want who no want them and the beginning of all their problems.

As for men whose wives refuse to sleep with them, divorce is always an option. Marriage no be by fire or force sha.

But I’ve even heard some women say when they’re older they won’t want sex. They don’t mind if the man gets it elsewhere as long as he’s discreet. If such a guy isn’t scared of getting HIV from side chicks, he can explore those options. Or if he’s one man one woman guy, he can still insist on a divorce and have a new wife who is willing to sleep with him.

Divorce rids men of their hard earned money in these countries

cococandy:
I like his honesty. At least you heard him and knew he was serious. And as it wasn’t your cup of tea, you let him be.

Many of them won’t say anything because the girl they want doesn’t want to share. Then they trap her in a marriage and start gaslighting her with scripture and tradition when it could’ve all been avoided

This is usually not how it goes down. The guys who boldy claim this are usually not your average guy. They are usually very well-off. And these are the type of guys most of you want. So even when you know he won't be loyal to you alone, you still go ahead to marry him to secure the bag. That's what happens. Nobody traps anyone. Two consenting adults who know what they're doing.

You have a point, but what are you suggesting? People should stay back and suffer? The common man in Nigeria has no power to effect any change in the country. People japa so that their kids can have a better life. Let the corrupt ruling class fix the country then we can have this conversation about not going to develop the land of foreigners.
For now, that's better than staying in the country for nothing but suffering. At this point, I wish everyone could just leave the country for them. Make dem dey rule themselves and those benefitting from their corruption.
It's better to face discrimination in a foreign land but at least have better opportunities for you and your kids to succeed. There's also discrimination in Nigeria but with little to no opportunities.
I tried to rent a house in Lagos recently and it took me more than 6 months to get a quite decent place because of the terrible discrimination.
I also don't know why you think going abroad to start a new life is "the easy way". For most people, it's not an easy way. It's harder. It just happens to be the better way than staying in Naija to hustle without any certainty.

GloriousGbola:
You can tell by Gerrard59's takes that he is at the minimum not conventionally attractive to women

Why is that I find it hard to believe this? I know it's true but it's so funny that there are men who feel betrayed because of lack of attention from women 😳. Meanwhile, all my life, I have been on the grind and never gave a crap about the other side.

Really? sometimes I forget how good looks are soooo important... I never bothered to use it, or maybe because I have never being called "ugly."

Edit: I should put my so-called "handsomeness" to good use and sell my soul to these Abuja old babes.

OP, keep dropping them posts, so motivational... I need them.

Even after a well balanced analysis on the male struggle, how most men are invisible without STATUS.

the sisterhood were fixated and squirming like a warm salt was sprinkled on, because you have young female options attracted to you, which they enjoyed since from puberty till they were ready to settle down.

The gaslighting and female twisted logic stinks

Sorry o.

The women that he attracts now that he claims to be rich, aren't they the same ones that wouldn't have given him the time of day when he was poor?

Gerrard59:


I have the facial looks of a typical Igbo businessman. That is what I realised recently, especially looking at the pictures closely. Thankfully, I am tall enough and no potbelly.

Noted.

I love your mature response, boss.

If you have records of ordinary Europeans doing japa and leaving the ruling class alone to fix the country, please share.

I am sorry to say this,you are not an intelligent. Obviously why you seek validation from redpill men and look up to them as tin gods


No one stopped men from following 100 women. We only said,live and let live.

As you are enjoying your own,allow an onlyfans girl earn and enjoy her youth.stoo crafting revenge or harboring vengeful fantasies.

Worse off it's from people like you and monkey face that are spiritual that usually have lopsided judgement.

Maybe if you spend your time chasing value and not vagina affairs you will not need a flat mate to share a three bedroom

The "Unspoken social dynamics" of high STATUS men, the kinda men most ladies are attracted to - 80:20 Rule

The hard guys will be upfront about it

Just like most men ponder what's the past and body count of the lady they are dealing with for a possibly long term relationship is.

The hard guys with means might ask overtly, some will find out covertly.

They don't have it anywhere as bad as we do. So why do that? These people have trivial problems like not knowing what a woman is. They don't have survival problems like we do.
You can't do anything when you can't even feed yourself and your family. But if you japa and succeed, you have a better chance at tackling the problems back home.

Chill

Life is sinusoidal

No one is stopping you from frolicking

It's only the lucky few exceptions that can eat their cake and still have it.

I am not talking about now, but about many centuries ago when they were ruled brutally by absolute monarchy.

In the days of old, people migrated A LOT in search of greener pastures. This is common knowledge. There has always been refugees. Many of the current occupants of the top countries in the east and the west migrated and settled there. White Americans are European settlers.
Interestingly it was harder and riskier to travel across borders but people still did to find a better life. Many of these people now have descendants that are regarded as natives of the lands they settled in.
A few centuries from now, OP's descendants if he stays in Chile would be natives of Chile.

Throughout history, People have been migrating out of their land when life there is unbearable.
Part of the cause of the fall of the Roman empire was the huge exodus of people from the land. People were leaving because of the tyranny and difficulty in living.
Even not too long ago, many current day Argentinians are descendants of Italians who migrated from Italy.
I could go on and on. But let's not derail this thread.
Bye.

what's your height?

I mostly skimmed this thread, but the only way I'd describe it is - like watching an industrial revolution-era locomotive train chugging along the tracks, with a consignment of corn kernels and gasoline. Suddenly, BOOM! It's off the tracks, crashing into a poorly constructed tunnel overpass, in an inferno of mangled metal.

Now, all you're stuck looking at is a major train wreck, overflowing with fresh popcorn - and you can't look away


For what it's worth, I'd say, while the OP's pettiness definitely crossed the point of diminishing returns, he has most certainly defeated his detractors.

erico2k2:
Bross talk true, nah fine place carry us leave 9ja? or people go abroad go count bridge and flyover?That is called tourism not hustling, if you wan hustle 4get fine get down and dirty.
