Until you trained a female daughter from infant to adult, then you'll understand why the list is always huge..

The good that we made your umu-nna richer just to go back home with you is enough good. And also, your father, mother and every member of your family get to enjoy the benefit of getting you married to a man who is able to pay that humongous amount as your bride price.

Women are just lucky.

very lucky.

That is why they are forced into marriage to men that are sometimes twice their age even when they are kids.

Women are so lucky they get to carry pregnancies for nine months and stand the risk of dying when they go into labour.

Women are very lucky o. They have no troubles in life. They don't get blamed for the infertility of their husbands at times. Lucky beings

If a culture isn't bad, why fix it?

There's nothing wrong with bride price except where the inlaws become greedy. In some cultures, it is as low as N10.

Feminist who are against it are either being righteous overmuch, throwing the baby out with the bathwater or just extremely petty like the Toronto gal

Honestly some lists need reevaluation. Guys should appreciate too. Its not easy answering someone else's name for life.

Which name? The lady can keep her name. Things like name don't even bother me. Who name EPP?

Are the kids not going to be bearing the man's name?

And I'm sure you won't be saying this if the name is an 'Otedola' or a 'Dangote'.

their tradition is quit different from ours. Maybe you are not Igbo cos you will not understand. In Igbo land its not just the parents of the girl that owns her. Hence everyone must partake in her marriage rites

You are from Imo state.

Remember a time is coming when 7 women will run to one man begging to eat their food wear their clothes and even pay their house rent to answer a man's name. In other words in no distant time women will also b given list and groom price.

I am igbo from adazi nnukwu in Anaocha Local government area of Anambra state to be precised...
the list is very affordable that u can have a #250k traditional marriage with out party... there was a time it was so high that many people could not meet up with the requirements... the elders and other respectable men had to join heads together and see how to alleviate the burden called bride price cos they won't marry their daughters... it was reduced drastically and everybody is benefiting from. it (both poor and rich)
highest bidding bride price is 10k in my place... guess every village have got their own culture and I believe they have a reason for that and it should be respected... but it would be nice if people can look into this extortion called bride price...
it have left many people unmarried today and many guys leave their people(cos of the high bride price) and marr.y from other states while some do many dubious things to meet up with the said bride price...
I hope we all can learn to accept and tolerate everyone noting that all fingers are not equal....
my thoughts though..

Enlighten us...how hard is it answering some else's name for life...what stigma or psycoligical trauma is it putting u tru..u women like a make a fuss about everything...something that u clearly want for urself, u still find away of making it look like men are forcing it on u and u are only doing it as a favour just to please the man...

Even the sex we all enjoy togeda and both contribute our bodies is still seen as a huge favour by u ladies...I'm not always understanding u pple

and what good did you do to us by settling the umunnas items on the list? Am sure you are not Igbo. That list most times is for the umunna not even the girls family alone

then I guess the igbo communities have a community account where they all deposit in and use it to raise their offspring together as a community.

I believe this is just a case where the system created by men, comes back to haunt them. My dad said, bride price payment is intended to show that a man is mature enough to cater for a wife and since she is leaving her family to go join his...he should appreciate them.

He even told me that, way back, some men used to brag with it. They say things like "I bought everything on the list down to salt".
Men were using it to intimidate each other. I am sure my fellow igbo people will be familiar with this. If they want it to go, they can.

They only want equality when it's beneficial.

Don't blame them.

Blame the system that says only men should propose to women..
Only men should approach women for relationship. This is where feminism was birthed.
