We must indeed change. A lot of those notions hitherto held should no longer hold. Times have changed; people should do same as well.

People must be allowed to live their own lives.

Our african parents are also biased. The pressures ladies face at home when it comes to the issue of marriage, its crazy.

And you know what the SOCIETY means. It also involve women themselves.

oh well, you almost sounded like they are mutual exclusives, women and society. Tis why I asked.

Yes. And that was exactly why I penned this thread. I'm rather taken aback with mothers pressuring up their daughters. Though they should have known better.

Women are their own worst enemy - Quote me anywhere.

All these ones you are saying are good and well

However there's not much anyone can do about it on a large scale

The only solution is to get money like cute.hector said. My personal belief is that the true "liberation" of a female is through money.

Money Stops Nonsense

So whats next? Women can be prostitutes because of live and lets live .....Smh,no substance as usual

Cutehector:
lmao... I laff u in spanish... I can marry at any time I wish too...

Of course
Of course
Of-very-course
You sure can marry anytime you wish, who told you anybody couldn't do same, anybody can marry anytime they wish,but will the society let you do it in peace.

Tell us what we don't already know.

I almost got offended when I saw "no1 gives a hoot" but then I thought about it.

The society is invisible or at least to me. No one is really going to use a broom and shove a husband down your throat. All the people do is look and gossip and truthfully, ain't nobody died from being looked at or gossiped about.

The desperation felt these days mostly comes from within sef... "my mates are getting married and I'm still here", "is it that I'm not good enough", "why can't I find someone, is something wrong with me?" and so on.

Just live your life, most importantly, live meaningfully. Try to achieve your goals and dreams in life. If anyone gives you a hard time about anything, move away coz like they said, those who matter don't care and those who care don't matter.

Oh these days people don't look and gossip, they tell it to your face. Often times sef its not within, no matter how strong these women try to be, someone somewhere will be poking 'em with hot needle.
Oh and these days those who matter care.
But then again, it depends on the kinda people around you.

Then blame yourselves all the time for your woes .

Preye be careful of what you wish for oh!!!

Oahray:
nice... I wish more ladies would take their time. It's not as if those pressuring them would be there to walk the walk with them.

bros, help me remind them o. It's saddening that some even go as far as pausing their careers just to find husbands. You'll hear comments like "which man will marry you with M.Sc." it's bad

the madnes on nairaland also must stop everyone tends to be a relationship expert ridiculing the female gender for not making effort to get a man like they are going to woo their self.

I believe there are three variables here the economy is one variable in which is not favouring the men to be able to get their footings. most men of marriageable age don't have the financial means to start a family. which is definitely reflecting on the female gender of marriageable age as the society has designed it in a way that a female must relatively depend upon.

And you are on every female related topic on nairaland....

Cutehector:
Op nobody is disturbin dem.... D society doesn't gv a hoot nowadays, evryone is out lookin for money....
