Let's move on folks. Prostitution is very bad but no crime. But guess what? Its still d oldest profession in the world and flourishing! So long as it is a matter of choice women and, yes men will engage in it. We can argue all we want.

naijaboiy:
[b][color=#1980BC]There is no flaw in the Op's write up. He said its from his personal experience but you were expecting him to input the poverty tag. Even at that, the rest of us who noticed what you were trying to say clamped on you to still let you know that even that poverty tag you expected the Op to input is not a good excuse to go into prostitution.

He pointed it out to me after I called his attention to the private university sh1t and I told him what I thought. Yes I was because that was what I expected to be the first reason there but of course, it wasn't there.

This is very similar to when you women shout "No justification to hit a woman" or "No justification to cheat on your partner". Men have brought up so many reasons but everything still remains the same that no matter what a man should not hit a woman. So in the same vein, poverty is not a good excuse to go into prostitution. I'll keep hammering on that point cos I know I'm very right in all ramifications.

Imma leave the chauvinistic aspect of your statement and still tell you the same thing I said, whatever rocks your boat. I never said you're right or wrong, I only said you should not attack me because I have a right to state my opinions as you do too and from what I remember, you never stated yours in the first place

Talking about sentimentality, I know I still remember clearly what the meaning of being sentimental is so I'm still confused there.

I don't know if condemning prostitution is now an act of sentimentalism. Maybe you should explain better.

Bringing my daughter and boyfriend into it is the sentiment I'm talking about. And while we're at it Mr Naijaboiy maybe you should stop making inciting statements to appeal to the crowd, yeah I remember that's another fallacy in argument 'Argumentum ad populum'

Going back to my siggy which is a good thing you always take note of them, I will like to draw you back to the siggy you are referring to and it goes thus. "It's not by force you agree with me, I mean I can't force you to be right".

I take note of them because they're colorful and aptly written, although I see you don't follow some of them

Going by all standards I'm the one who is right here and in my earlier post I've told you I can't force you to join the train. So you are allowed to remain ignorant of the fact that prostitution is bad.

Oh, there was a train

It's no crime at all!

Whatever rocks your boat sir

What again were you saying about jelly fishes? [/color]

Lemme educate you a little. Jellyfishes don't have brains (google is your friend) and now since you feel bad for ignorant people, I only pointed out that if jellyfishes have survived for milions of years without brains, then ignorant people will too

elvision1:
see them. I know say one person go wan toast her

skarlett:
For starters, I don't have a daughter yet so let's all wait till then. I first of all faulted the op's write-up because it seemed one-sided, until he explained and said its from his/her point of view. I would have expected him/her to be objective about the discourse and especially name the most important factor which is poverty but he/she didn't they waved it aside that's why I said the write-up was skewed in the first place.

I decided to sit on the fence on this one because hell, runs girls are not the problem of Nigeria, they're hustling for themselves and if we're intent on blaming them, we should blame the men who ask for their services too. Afterall if they're not there who will the girls be 'runs-ing' with. I choose not to judge them because I don't know what could have made some of them indulge in such acts. I didn't stop the rest of nairaland from stating their opinion as I stated mine. Y'all are just intent on making me subscribe to your pov which I'm not keen on subscribing to.

Finally, after condemning it and saying the girls are weak and greedy et al, will it stop them? You can keep the answer to yourself.

Happy sunday

obinna2nv:
Yeah, I do get your point, I ain't judging them, hell when I was in school I had 1 or 2 as friends, there's 1 that gists me about her escapades, and even shows me her designers wears et al., after a good trip., Its her choice, but it ain't really the best of choices though, for 1, its a path that is riddled with disaster and may likely not end well. Well, if one is making a choice that will have a negative consequence on his/her person, people he/she does the business with or the society, the least we could do is to ask the person to reconsider, keeping silent or neutral may be taken as consent.

P.S.
I did take your path of neutrality with my runs girls friends back then, maybe because I was younger, without any idea of the way of the world, they were big girls and I did enjoy their company, hell my opinion wouldn't have mattered to them anyway, I was just a youngster. But am wiser now, if I have anyone around doing the deed, I'll definitely voice out my disapproval and tell them that they can do better without trying to sit on a high horse or being judgemental. Its the right thing to do..

Happy Sunday to you too!!

It's not, I'm a very lively person. I am what they call "fun". I'm an introvert, so it wasn't really boring for me. If you spend an hour with me, I assure you, you gonna like me for eternity.

I live my life the way I want, not how people want it to be.

Aquariann:
A topic about 17 female students of Unilag alleged to be missing after a supposedly house party in Lekki graced the front page yesterday. For all its worth, it might just be a fabrication because (as at the time of posting this) no one else has come out to corroborate the story. But we do pray for their safe return if true.

Well, from My personal (University) experience I'll like to share five top reasons why girls go into campus prostitution otherwise known as "Runs, Runz, Aristo etc.

Having attended one of the top private universities and being really close with some "Runs girls", my points would likely sound strange and different from the every day "excuses" people give to encourage or justify the oldest trade known to man in our citadels of learning. Yes, you read right, girls in private universities engage in this act too. And are more often better paid too, no joke.


1. BECAUSE THEY DECIDED TO
A point I've learnt in life is the fact that children will always (and definitely grow up to) make their own decisions in life. And most times, the decisions made are not a reflection of the home they come from. That's why we hear negatives about kids from supposedly respectable and Godly parents/homes. So before you start blaming the parents, ask yourself whether they actually did their job but their kid/ward deliberately chose to be wayward.

So no matter what your excuse for Runs is, it boils down to the fact that a conscious decision was made to go into it. Some other girls have faced worse situations, but yet decided to look for a honorable path out.

2. SATANIC GREED (COVETOUSNESS)
Greed here is when you don't have before and suddenly start craving more after getting a little. Satanic greed here is when you have all that you need, but painfully become desirous and envious of another's possessions. The excuse of coming from poor homes and hence cannot afford to take care of themselves does not hold in these cases.

Girls in this category feel outshining each other is a war (not just battle) that must be won at all cost. Their parents can literally provide all they need. But because of the frivolous nature of these "wants" and probably due to the disciplined nature of their parents (who query every penny spent), they resort to helping themselves.

3. HIGH HANDED PARENTS (Omo "Get insides"
Discipline is good, but just like everything else, too much of it is bad. I call girls (and boys) in this category "Omo get inside". These are the type of kids whose parents are so strict that upon sighting them standing outside their (prison style) gated house, would quickly rebuke them shouting "Get inside the compound now".

Back in secondary school, a driver drops them off at school, waits until closing hours to take them back home. They don't know the name of the street next to theirs and their social life is equal or close to zero. Most in this category lose their virginity to one domestic staff or close relative (topic for another day).

Now once in the university (freedom at last), it usually takes a little or no effort from friends in breaking the shell subconsciously built around themselves due to fear of their parents. They club the most, drink the most and have more casual sex because once the holiday begins, it's back to prison. They usually don't even need the money that comes with the act. They are just having fun or at worst "catching up with life".

4. EXPERIMENT/FETISH/KINK/BUCKET-LIST ITEM

Girls in these categories started off as just wanting to experiment how it felt to meet a total stranger, have casual sex, wake up the next day and forget his name. While some other just have it as a fetish, a kink or an item in their bucket list. Lists like: Things to do before I leave campus. Or things to do before I get married. On that list, you'll see "I want to have bomb sex", "I want to have two guys take me" etc.

Unlike the 90's, 80's and below, girls from the last decade are very much now assertive. Hence they've dropped all stereotypes of ladies being frigid while now exploring their sexuality.

But the problem here becomes the fact that after doing it once, twice or thrice, they become hooked to the lifestyle. And just like a drug, they go out of their way to get their fix. Some in this category also don't need the money.

5. ADVENTURE
Please permit me to use the lyrics of a song by Cyndi Lauper as explanation for this point

Girls Just Want To Have Fun"

"I come home in the morning light
My mother says when you gonna live your life right
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
And girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun
The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father yells what you gonna do with your life
Oh daddy dear you know you're still number one
But girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls - they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun
Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
I want to be the one to walk in the sun
Oh girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls - they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun,
They want to have fun,
They want to have fun... "

Believe it or not, a good number of girls engaging in Campus prostitution are just having the fun of their lives and there's nothing anyone, situation or fate that befell some other girls can do about it until they call it quits themselves. These group are usually highly selective of the "events" they attend.

So there you have it, five reasons why some girls go into campus prostitution.

Bonus tip and short story

A guy once approached one of my friends for a relationship. He kept disturbing the girl and she just didn't have his time. But one day she decided to just put him off and told him, "Guy, I be runs girl. No be say tomorrow you go say make I no pick calls again"

Embarrassed, the guy left her without saying anything and we thought that was the end. But he met her alone another day and said he was certain she just said that to put him off. Claiming he had studied her very well and asked about her and she came out clean. This was her turning point Today they are both married with children.

Now my bonus point is that a good percentage of the real ("baddest" Runs girls have mastered the act of deception that it would be difficult for you to ever find out if they don't open up to you. These set of girls still care about their reputation, bearing in mind the idea of a possible scandal in future etc. making them to be a secretive as a Russian spy.
This type are never flashy or move in a group. One man squad things. They are the real "big girls" not all the noise makers showing off everywhere. Even upon graduation, they have regular paying jobs. And neither job or marriage stops them. Fear these ones more. Dem get mind.

What Do you say guys?
