Why don't u wear skirt and blouse na.

We are too intolerant as if we should accept anything.

If ur a man, dress like a man.

Men like the ones above who wear earrings are either gay, cultists or are easily influenced by the action of others
If I was scottish,I for wear skirt.
Don't accept everything,just try and mind your business.
It's a thing of choice,shouldn't be hard to understand

Kneeling to propose to a woman is unafrican and not in our culture, same thing with certain tribes/ ethnicity in the middle East.
If u check most European ancient histories, I highly doubt any man back then kneel to propose marriage to a woman.
All these are Western ways popularize from the late 1880s to now. And social media are making it look like it is normal and also a culture to be followed.
I doubt even American president Mr Trump ever kneel to propose to his wife. He looks and acts like a man and that is why he is trying to change all the nonsense orientations ruining America future generations.

I will not kneel down to propose to a woman.
I will not kneel down to propose to a woman
I will not kneel down to propose to a woman.

Abraham did not kneel down to propose to Sarah
Isaac did not kneel down to propose to Rebecca
Jacob did not kneel down to propose to Rachael.

There is no where in the Bible where God in heaven commanded a man whom he created to be the head to kneel down to propose to a woman.

My father did not kneel down for my mother when he wanted to marry her.
Therefore, I will not kneel down.

These "kneeling down" has deep Spiritual implications but men don't know.

May God help you people indulging in it.
indeed that is why the women are oppressing the men in those societies where they kneel down like US and Europe. Hence the proliferation of abnormal lifestyles over there

The guy plait hair already so he is feminine. A man should not kneel down in Africa to be a protector and provider, never. Marriage to a lady is a call to her to join him in his life journey. Not the other way round.
You even forgot he washed a woman's pant live on national TV

Point of correction. The Bible was, is and never a program of man.

Because if you say man created the Bible, then who created God.
Nature isn't created, it's a manifestation of energy, which transforms from one form to another without beginning or end. In the cycle of life, organisms interconnect and benefit each other ,humans consume animals, while microorganisms like termites and ants eat man when they die thereby benefitting each other...

Regarding the concept of God, I believe humans developed this idea to explain unanswered questions about existence.
Throughout history, people have created theories to alleviate uncertainty and find meaning, Just as conspiracy theories emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic, to make sense of the world. While these ideas have influenced societies, many are now questioning and awakening to new perspectives.

This is how they brag on social media that they don't benefit anything from getting married but in reality,they are taking wives here and there.

People that kneel down to beg for sex...They will continue to kneel down to propose.

Social media and reality are two different worlds

I quite enjoy their humor most times. If you ignore the nonsense, they do have wonderful movies.

What do you expect from big brother naija house mate. anything can go
DyshApp:
Reality TV star and Big Brother Naija alum, Neo Akpofure, has weighed in on the ongoing debate about whether men should kneel when proposing marriage.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Neo made it clear that he has no problem kneeling before the woman he intends to marry. He described her as his “God-given helper” and the one who will carry his future generations, adding that kneeling is not begging but a sign of honor and commitment.
Neo dismissed critics who see the act as unnecessary or demeaning, saying:

“I will gladly kneel before the woman I will ask to marry me! If it looks like begging to you, IDC! That’s my helper God gave me, the one who will bring forth my generations to come. Everyone just setting ridiculous standards these days y’all enjoy.”

His comment comes amid heated debates online, especially after a lady recently rejected a proposal because her man refused to kneel. While some argue kneeling is outdated, others insist it remains an important gesture of love and humility.


Is kneeling during a proposal still necessary in today’s world, or is it just societal pressure?

I see you're atheist, so you're backing Darwin theory. How the journey of man began from a tadpole through several unrelated creatures before arriving to present day human

One of newton's law of motion I like is that an object will always be at rest until a force is exerted upon it..

It means everything will remain motionless until something triggers movement

Without the unforseen forces the world would be dead as in motionless.
