Like literally leave us alone.

Imagine how awesome the world would be if the men who think they don’t benefit anything from marriage choose not to get married ever?

Most Nigerian men have not been educated to love and respect their wife, and think she is a rib who should just provide them with sex on tap. And when you tell them, they think you are just being woke.

Strong women are shaping history by lying against their husbands to get him arrested after the man has sold his property to take her abroad.

Your son too will meet a "strong woman" that will do this to him

It shows women can be terrible as a bread winner

She ll keep nagging about paying this or that bills.

Meanwhile back in Nigeria, these are bills the man will chest without announcing it to the whole world

I disagree with the conclusion that the UK “simply exposed fragile marriages.” What it actually did was introduce a power imbalance in the opposite direction, one enforced by the state.

Yes, women were historically mistreated, and that reality must be acknowledged. But replacing abuse with adversarial “equality” backed by legal leverage does not produce healthy unions. It produces marriages where conflict is escalated, not resolved.

When authority is stripped from men while responsibility remains, resentment grows. When power is granted without corresponding obligation, discipline erodes. Marriage stops being a cooperative structure and becomes a negotiation under threat.

Independence is not the problem. Independence used as a tool to dominate or punish a partner is. A system that incentivizes separation over reconciliation will naturally see more divorces. Not because people became freer, but because walking away became easier than fixing what is broken.

Traditional headship existed for a reason: coordination, stability, and accountability. Abuse was a corruption of that structure, not proof that the structure itself was flawed. Dismantling it entirely guarantees long-term social instability, not progress.

There are more female ashåwo, more female onlyfåns.

But then again, how does this relate to this thread or whatever I talked about earlier on? undecided
So how does a woman being an ashawo make her inherently selfish and terrible compared to your gender that are mostly murderers, kidnappers, rapist, bandits, terrorist and armed robbers? And which gender sleeps and pays for the service rendered by the ashawos?

What you put up here is a beautiful nonsense. UK is not Africa continent or Nigeria. African traditional marriage is different entirely from western marriage. Although nothing concerns me with their yeye pretentious monogamy style here that they copied from the west.
U should ask her why Indian women don't leave their husbands after relocating to UK...even though we know how Indian men are tough and rigid towards their women

So, exactly how does your comment negates your irrational understanding of a "strong woman"
Re: The UK Doesn’t Destroy Nigerian Marriages; It Exposes Them by Host78: 8:08pm On Jan 31
Lolz.

You speak as though the men carry gun and are forcing the women to get married.

My dear women are getting married voluntarily. So where is this "forced" narrative of "leave us alone" coming from?

Na women dey attend shiloh and do hallelujah challenge looking for husbands not men.

So, if you feel the world will be awesome, you can literally tell yourself not to get married. No man is forcing you to get married.

In a world where 2-3 women are sharing one man, fighting over one man, you're here boosting your ego that it is the men who should leave you alone grin

Sorry olabrad, but you really have to work a bit harder if you want to communicate with me.

How is my understanding of a strong woman irrational to you for instance?

And which of my very numerous comments negates what exactly?

Re: The UK Doesn’t Destroy Nigerian Marriages; It Exposes Them by cococandy(f): 8:35pm On Jan 31
You’re the ones saying you gain nothing from marriage. Why do you still do it? It defeats logic !

As an extreme supporter of women right that I am and with due respect to the author of that piece, but he/she doesn't understand the reason for the change when Nigerian women get to the UK.

The reason is that we don't have a strong sense of culture. We have eaten our cake over here and can't have it. And the man is to be blamed.

Ask yourself why it doesn't happen for Arabs, Indians, even for other African countries.

It doesn't happen for other countries with strong sense of culture. There's something wrong with us over here that makes that the case when we get to the UK .
I'd actually argue that you are very wrong in this your strong culture thing, though its true that we don't have a strong culture that oppresses women and chops off their heads if they don't submit to men.

What's actually happened to us is we have become educated and more enlightened, so women can not be so easily exploited like those "Arabs, Indians, even for other African countries" might be exploiting there's.

Even UK exploited their women till education set their women free.

You're the one saying you gain nothing from marriage why do you pray, cry, roll on the floor, weep, gnash your teeth and fast for it?

Doesn't it defeat logic to go willingly to men to slave for them?

I think the UK exposes women for the leeches they are in marriage rather than men being the problem.

For one, a man marries a woman because he loves and cares about her.

When she had nothing, he married her, gave her his own money, and fed and clothed her as much as he could.

And when he has hustled enough, he saves and saves and denies himself a lot of things so that he'll be able to cater to this woman and the child she'll later bear.

But that's still not enough. He wants to improve their overall quality of life. He wants more for them.

So he saves even more and then travels to the UK.

In the UK, he picks up odd jobs, and even though he's stressed, he works harder to ensure his family can join him one day.

Then finally his wife and kids are able to join him in the UK.

Suddenly on getting there, she found that she could now work and earn as much as the husband.

He's happy. She's happy. He's happy that finally his loved ones are with him now and they can continue building the home they started.

She's happy she's here now and could finally get rid of her husband and her family.

On the one hand, when he had everything, he gave her everything and brought her over.

On the other hand, when she had everything, she wanted to give him nothing and to send him away.

So, no, the UK does not expose how terrible men are but how terrible and ungrateful women are to the men who gave them everything.

On her own, she'll never have dreamt of a day she'll cross the Nigerian border. It was the man who gave her wings.

But the very moment she felt the air, she turned around and called him a misogynistic bastard who had been maltreating her all along.

He was maltreating her, yet he brought her over to the good life. He was maltreating her, yet he married her and gave her the wedding of her dreams.

He was maltreating her, yet he helped her find a job, helped her complete her course or paid for her schooling.

What did he get in return? Or, more to the point, what did she give him in return?

It's like God after giving you air and life, and suddenly you say now you have the freedom to say God was evil.

Nah, Nigerian women are selfish, self-centred and ungrateful, and the UK exposes their true nature.

And save me the excuse of these women getting married to men they don't like because they need to survive.

Isn't that the selfishness we are talking about? You married someone you don't like because you wanted your own survival, not caring about the man's survival.

@image. Yet this same hopeless and poor girl, starving to death, whose own parents could not help her situation, the moment you take her over there and she gets good work, you, suddenly you're a misogynistic bastard who has been maltreating her undecided

Like I said, the world can't do without parasites. Be it ecto or Endo, the world can't do without them.

Getting dizzy schooling a petulant student isn't my forte. Never have, never will. I'm cool like that. 👌
