YES: because my dad is so caring and protective, No: because he was fvcking other cute asses, but he has changed now, old age

. And you too said yes because you fantasized of him..... Perverts everywhere

desquad:
I swear I can't marry a woman who doesn't love her father, you don't like him then how would you like me?

Stupid untrained girls everywhere, I spit on y'all

Uncle drink hot cocoa this cold day. You really can't say that cuz you actually do not know what most have been through. True, most are exaggerating, but they still have soul wounds from their experiences.

alBHAGDADI:
Na wah o.

Children are always heartless towards their dads. If guys were asked if they could marry a woman like their mother, the only few objections would be that they would like the lady to be finer than their mum.

Hardly would they be any other objections.

True

5 years after this time ask them if the man they married is better than their father most of them will say they prefer their father that is when they will know marriage is a black market you endure whatever you see there no man is perfect in as much as he brought you to this life you must appreciate him for that

Sensual:
Of course!
My dad is exceptionally great

Stop tempting me. You look and sound great!

There was a poll about this on Twitter some weeks ago.
An overwhelming Majority said No.

It just started happening this era. In the olden days with our forefathers, every child loved their dad and wanted to be like him. But feminist brainwashing and female gender supremacists working in corhorts have succeeded in turning many children against their fathers. I am even happy and surprised that some ladies here love their father at all. Because from the way I am seeing things, in less than a decade, being born male will turn to the worst disadvantage. Go and check list of transgenders, most of them are males trying to turn to female. What does that tell you?

Believe me 95% of those that says NO, said so because their dad was very poor. And those that said yes was because they have a rich dad

Jesus Christ... mehn from the reply there and on nairaland here too.... mehn there is a problem.... cos the answer NO is 80% ....maybe because their father couldn't provide the life they deserve.... cos I don't think it's generally cheating or beating their mother

Sincerely ,if I was a woman , I wouldn't marry a man like my father oooo. The guy is polygamous, quick to anger, one.way thinking, doesn't care if he hurts others feelings, doesn't give a single bleep to ask you what is going on in your life, shouts at my mom for everything , even though she goes to work with him, he still shouts at her for his food not being ready , even threaten to hit her with sharp objects at any little provocation, I grew up watching a tyrant,oppressor and s stone hearted man, but thank God for my life, I have a soft heart and will never be a man like my dad.

yes na, My dad is the best in the world...every ladies dream.

what about cheating... and laying hands on their mother I. e the wife...... even me too... if I was a girl.... I won't want marrying a man like my father... God forbid

NO! He's a good man but I can't imagine dealing with what my mom had to put up with

Dudeweedlmao:

It's that bad huh!!

You have no idea

I totally reject it in Jesus mighty name. My father was a world class philanderer. Lived and broke up with different women. He never understood the sanctity of marriage. Never took care of any his kids which he produced from countless women. The only money my father ever willing gave to me was 2,500 naira. This was few years ago after I have struggled to graduate and I had been working and doing well. I decided to mend fences and visit him, and when I was going back he gave me that money. Honestly I didn't not need it because I had a good paying job already. He never paid one school fee, not one! Never gave me a gift before..in short he was never part of my upbringing at all and same for his many other kids. He uses and disses women like toys.
There is nothing to be proud of about him. I got a fantastic man in my life, a dream of many women. A responsible and a good man. I pray he never changes.

Berbierklaus:
Only few Nigerians men should not be called daddy but sperm donor.
Some of those saying yes is just because of blood,most men were never there for their kids.

As for me,I would love to marry someone like Tonyebarcanista's dad

This is totally false

don't mind him, in the business of raising children it is well known that mothers are more committed and sacrificial whereas when the going get tough, fathers get going, it's only when they are super rich that it may appear they are caring, only a mother will prefer to go hungry for her children to eat, my own father was a nag, he would shout and complain all day because of trivialities, he didn't believe in education past secondary school, my mother shoulder that for all 6 of us, he ripped my mother off of huge savings several times with promises of I will pay you back only to spend it on trivialities and never pay back, I still marvel at how he got my mother to part with huge amounts each time he asked despite not having paid the previous loan, he stole our future, he was a terror and a tyrant, imagine my mother just moved into her own house 2 years ago ,she was only able to build after we all graduated. he favoured my step mother and her children over us, he didn't take care of us despite he was hard working and died a pensioner, he mostly spent his money on himself and he was the first to demand money when I started working, he apologized to me before he died though for not taking care of us. I actually married someone like him and I was surprised how I ended up that way, but my first husband died after 4 years of marriage, now I'm married to this wonderful man who is everything I want in a man, he is loving, kind generous and considerate and he loves me so much, I was a very unhappy child, my present husband is Allah's way of wiping away my tears and taking away the pain of my childhood. Alhiamdulila

yes yes and a resounding yes. this is a man that never allowed me to lack,if am traveling and I tell him I need one naira he gives me three. he is not rich but he gives us his best. he is not just good to me and my siblings but to our mother as well. so forgiving...doesnt allow anger overwhelm him. very soft but yet firm, I am proud to have him as a father.

The assorted type of NOs though. Does this in any way back up the stereotype that most old marriages were endured not enjoyed?

your daddy na Maradona?

genieluv:
Most of our African fathers were brought up to believe that real men are supposed to be Alpha- males.

Traits of alpha males - Polygamous, unnafectionate, unemotional, brutal, assertive and low esteem/discrimination of females!

These are the reasons majority of we young african women of today will not wish for our fathers' kinds. We are more westernized

I guess this is why my father is the best father/husband he is an opposite of an alpha male, very considerate and hardworking. he never abused anyone of us.

Hell No

My mom died when I was 10, after a short while he remarried against the wish of his 5 kids, his focus has been on his new wife , he isn't responsible for my education, I paid for my own waec, and a loving man took care of my schooling till the level I have gotten, Infact I don't want to talk about it. God forbid I end up with such a man, I and my rest siblings contribute to take care and send the last child of the family to school who's only just 15, meanwhile he still works, I pray my enemy doesn't end up with such man, I grew up not understanding a mother's love, and he didn't help for the fatherly love to patch that up either.

It's safe to say many Naija girls have daddy issues...

Hence their bad behavior..

Omo, so much reconciliation needs to be done.

Over hear in the North, I'm sure most girls would love to marry someone like their Dad, because if there is anything men are proud of here, is how they raise their families most especially girls. My Dad is living proof.

Looking back, the marriages I witnessed while growing (from my extended family and others), the women endured more than enjoyed.

me and my anut talked about marriage one time and all she went through in her marriage was compromise, "allowing the man to be the man". Her hubby would scold her in a gathering or in the presence of others, meanwhile she was making alot more than him. but still, she felt he was been the man.

The women had to endure and sacrifice so much to keep the home together. In some cases, it's not from the man, it's his family.

There is a Yoruba adage that says " a husband's house, is an extended place of learning and perseverance" - that says alot

Anyway, I'm definitely not marrying a man like my father.
