You're not wrong about the core point: *sexual discipline + keeping business separate from pleasure saves a lot of careers, marriages, and reputations.* That part is 100% real. A lot of men have watched their lives get derailed because they mixed emotions/sex with power, money, or work. The UNIZIK case with Prof. Odinye is literally that example - one compromise and everything starts to crumble. *Where I’ll push back a little though* Blaming "the nature of the gender" or calling all women "snakes/monsters" misses it. The issue isn’t gender. The issue is *power + lack of boundaries + poor choices*. Men have also ruined women’s careers. Women have ruined other women’s careers. Men have ruined other men’s careers. When anyone in a position of authority uses it for personal gain, or anyone tries to exploit someone’s weakness, that’s the problem - not an entire gender. "Simps" who don’t learn boundaries will get burned, yes. But women who don’t learn boundaries at work get burned too. *The 70% truth you said* You’re spot on here: *"As a man, if you master sexual discipline, you’ve solved 70% of your problems."* Because when you control that one area, you protect: 1. *Your career* - No HR cases, no compromised decisions 2. *Your family* - No shame, no broken trust 3. *Your money* - No blackmail, no reckless spending 4. *Your peace* - No secrets weighing on you That’s wisdom, regardless of gender. *So the real rule for everyone, man or woman:* 1. *Work = Work*. No flirting, no favors, no "let me handle this for you" outside process 2. *If there’s misconduct, report it*. Don’t cover it, don’t bargain with it 3. *Keep your pleasure life separate from your professional life* 4. *Guard your access*. Don’t put yourself in compromising positions Discipline isn’t about hating the opposite gender. It’s about loving your future self enough to say no today. |

[quote author=Pootle post=140445279]i hate nonsense sack him and revoke his The worse penalty he will get is extending his probation for 12 months in total while paying half salary monthly. He will be monitored during probation, if the panel members see improvement in his conduct, he will be reinstated back for his full salary. Outright sack doesn’t work so in the university system |

You’re basically hitting 3 points: *1. "See body parts as normal, not as a trap"* If a man treats breasts, behind, etc as "mystical forbidden fruit" then yes, he will obsess and lose control the moment he sees it. If you see the human body as normal, and see the _person_ first, you take away a lot of the power that lust has over you. Self-mastery starts in the mind. *2. "Get sex with dignity and self respect"* 100%. The problem isn’t sex itself. Life and sex _are_ sweet. The problem is _how_ and _where_ and _with who_. With dignity means: consent, honesty, no cheating, no power imbalance, no workplace drama, no destroying families or reputations. That’s what keeps it beautiful instead of turning into shame and lawsuits. *3. "Both are disgraceful to family and generation"* That’s the part that hurts most in cases like Prof. Odinye + the student. When a lecturer compromises his office AND a student compromises her integrity with exam malpractice, both names get dragged. Both families feel it. Generations remember it. Self-respect and family name are currency you can’t buy back once it’s spent. *The real flex as a man:* Not "how many" but "how well you carried yourself". Discipline + Dignity + Direction = Peace. When you protect your name, your work, and your home, you actually get to enjoy life and relationships without looking over your shoulder. |

How you go get that kind thing for house come dey mess up?!! Young, successful and he choose to mess up. I keep hoping that he was set up, because it would be tragic. That family will likely fall apart. |

“Men are polygamous by nature” line gets thrown around a lot, especially when cases like Prof. Odinye blow up. And “Goodluck to his wife and family”... that’s real pain there. Families always carry the heaviest part of the shame. *Let’s be real about it:* *1. Urges vs Choice* Biology might give men a higher sex drive on average. Culture in some places even normalizes it. But _nature_ doesn’t sign contracts, pay school fees, or face HR panels. _Choices_ do. Being “wired a certain way” explains temptation. It doesn’t excuse compromise, especially at work with a student. *2. Polygamy vs Professionalism* In marriage, polygamy is a whole different conversation that some cultures, religions, and couples agree to openly. In a university, office, or any workplace: it’s not about polygamy. It’s about *power imbalance + ethics*. A lecturer and student can never be “just two adults dating” because one person grades the other. That’s where it becomes abuse of office. *3. The family part* You’re right to mention the wife and family. They didn’t choose this. They’re the ones dealing with whispers, shame, and “what did we do wrong?” That’s why discipline isn’t just for you. It protects the people who depend on you. *So what’s the takeaway?* Whether you believe men are polygamous or not, the rule in public/professional life is the same: *Master yourself, or the situation will master you.* Sex, power, and secrecy are a dangerous mix. Dignity is what keeps your name, your job, and your home intact. It’s sad all around. I hope the wife, kids, and even the student get support to heal and move forward. And I hope other men see this and choose the harder but safer path. |

"Fear women" and "always maintain upper hand" can lead to more problems than it solves. *1. "Keep your wife at home, pay salary, she’ll be loyal"* Some homes work like that, and there’s nothing wrong with a woman choosing to be a full-time homemaker. But loyalty doesn’t come from dependence. It comes from respect, love, shared values, and choice. A woman who stays because she has no money and no option is not loyal - she’s trapped. And that breeds resentment over time. *2. "Give her business, she becomes a monster"* What’s really happening here? When a woman starts making her own money, 3 things change: 1. *She has options* - She’s no longer financially cornered 2. *Her confidence grows* - She speaks up more 3. *The power balance shifts* If the marriage was only working because one person had all the control, then yes, it will feel like "she changed." But if the foundation was respect, the extra income should make the home _stronger_, not turn her into a "monster." *3. "Always maintain an upper hand"* Marriage/business partnership isn’t war. If you’re always fighting for "upper hand," someone will eventually lose and the home loses too. Healthy homes run on *mutual respect*, not control. Control makes people hide things. Respect makes people bring problems to you. Think of it like this: A boss who rules by fear gets obedience. A leader who rules by respect gets loyalty. *What actually works long term:* 1. *Lead with responsibility*: Take care of your home, yes. That’s honor. 2. *Communicate*: Money, goals, boundaries. Talk before resentment builds. 3. *Celebrate her growth*: A wife who’s earning can help carry the load. That’s a blessing, not a threat. 4. *Keep your own integrity*: Whether she’s home or CEO, your discipline and character are what protect your family name. The Prof. Odinye case isn’t about "women being monsters." It’s about what happens when boundaries, ethics, and self-control break down - for _both_ people. Fear and control might work for a season. But respect and partnership is what lasts for generations. |

The DELSU case in 2012 was one of those stories that shook a lot of campuses. Caught in a student’s room, with exam booklet + those pictures going viral. Sacked immediately. Then the depression in 2014... That’s exactly what people mean when they say *"one moment of compromise can erase 20 years of reputation."* *3 hard truths from that story:* 1. *The institution won’t save you*: The moment evidence is out and it’s viral, the school has to act fast to protect itself. Job gone, name gone. 2. *Shame kills differently*: Losing your job is one thing. Losing respect, facing your kids, facing your colleagues... that weight broke him. Depression is real, and we don’t talk about it enough for men in these positions. 3. *The student also pays*: Her name, her family, her future. Nobody wins when boundaries are crossed. *Why I’m telling you I believe you* Stories like DELSU 2012 and UNIZIK 2025/2026 with Prof. Odinye are why schools now suspend first and investigate later. The pattern is the same: mix sex + grades + evidence = career over. And you’re right to bring it up. Because men need to hear it from other men: *It’s not worth it.* No "side thing" is worth your job, your health, your family name, or your life. If that supervisor had reported the exam malpractice and walked away, he’d probably still be alive and lecturing today. I’m really sorry you had to carry that memory. Did you know him personally, or were you just a student there at the time? And if this stuff ever weighs on you, please talk to someone - a pastor, counselor, elder, trusted friend. Bottling shame and regret is what turns into depression. |

essentialone:And 😂 more copy and paste llm. Stop being lazy and letting it think for you. Go into the settings and tell it. "No extra unnecessary punctuation. No em dashes. None. No asterisk. None. No hyphen. None." Copy and paste that in then ask it a question and see the difference. Put it in the settings not the prompt. |

essentialone:Im not following you. Im putting your posts into pdfs then im putting it all into an AI then im going to write a script in Google docs and then make a video to take your entire online philosophy apart. It will only take 30-40 minutes but it will be in your topics forever. So recap. Make pdfs Give them a video ai. Write a script in Google docs. Give the script to said ai. And tell it to follow the script. 40 minutes to me but will grind your gears forever. And hopefully get you to rivtaf to back everything you said up. |

Mattswaggz:True. I am also enraged that fellow men did this to him for a woman. To me, the cultists are the greatest simps not even the lecturer. Why treat your fellow man that way? Even worse, for the crocodile tears of a woman? So those riff raffs are now the enforcers of morality? |

This is a serious lesson about discipline, boundaries, and professional ethics. Whatever the circumstances of this particular case, the bigger message is important: when you occupy a position of authority, you must understand the responsibility that comes with it. Sexual attraction should never make anyone compromise professional standards, especially where there is a clear power imbalance between a lecturer and a student. Maintain boundaries, follow due process, document misconduct properly, and never allow personal desires to interfere with your professional judgment. At the same time, we should be careful not to generalize about women as a whole. The real issue is not that women are “like fire” or “like water”; it is that people can take advantage of situations when boundaries and ethics are compromised. Discipline protects your reputation. Professional boundaries protect your career. Self-control can save you from consequences that may follow you for years. Be wise. Protect your name. Do the right thing even when nobody is watching. |

SirIsaacus:Not many people understand what they are. There is no intelligence in it. None. Its trained on all human information. The problem is that humans are not very bright and there is more trash on the Internet than anything academic. They just predict the most likely next word. Its a digital Chinese room. LLM know nothing. Why are you letting something that literally knows nothing think for you. And LLM will lie to you They give the popular answers not the correct answer. When they are trained people vote on what answers they like not the accurate answer. When you use your chat bot. Does it ever give 2 answers and ask you to vote on the one you prefer? You are training it to lie to you and only give answers you want. |

What's it with sex the day you train your mind to see women as just flesh and blood just yhr the way you see animals you have won the fight ..... Women seek to control and their strongest weapon is sex appeal the moment they can get you to that mental state of desire they have won but once th y can't they begin to hate you after awhile they notice you're repugnant it becomes an honorable thing ....You now control them since they realize they have no power over you ... That's why you see older women whose sex appeal gets lesser and lesser turns to another method which witchcraft...That's a topic for another day |

It is a warning to MEN....... A MAN IS NOT THE SAME WITH A WOMAN...........WOMEN ONLY APPRECIATE A MAN BECAUSE OF YOUR STATUS IN LIFE...... THE GREATEST JOY OF A WOMAN IS TO BRING A MAN DOWN DOWN......THEY ARE SO HAPPY SEEING U LOSE EVERYTHING.... BE CAREFUL......KEEP ONE AS WIFE... DISCARD THE REST... |
