Battle of the sexes.

For there to be high rate of single ladies means there is also a high rate of single guys.

And I want to assume the single ladies referenced in this thread is 30s and above.

There are various reasons however, anyone who wants to get married WILL get married.

And 27 is not the time for a lady who is interested in marriage to clean up her acts and start looking.

I encourage early marriage in males and females as I believe the earlier the better.

A lady at 20/21 and guy at 24/25 should start thinking of marriage.

feminism advocates a right to a standard/ values and not “being able to afford a standard”/ values when it comes to a romantic relationship. Being able to afford means “price tag/limit” on the individual or situation you wish to relate with. This is why you came first with finance not checking clearly that one can have values that match upto “your” standard. I have heard many girls say “ he can’t afford me”. Isn’t that lame and this is obviously what you are saying too indirectly- a woman who is financially dependent cannot afford men of certain values because she needs him to meet her financial needs. A woman who is financially independent is able to afford any man with her desired values because she doesn’t need him for her financial needs, and there are not many men of values thus the high number of single women . I don’t have a comprehension problem, you are the one with a bleeped up mentality or perhaps one who don’t know what word to use.


Apparently, I can't follow your reasoning either..... sad. Not without giving myself a headache. Let's not try to understand each other anymore; we are intellectually divergent and have nothing to discuss.

Why is it bordering you that women are single to the point where you propose these misogynistic and pedophilic solutions to reduce the number of single women around.

Did the women tell you that they minded being single and did they ask you for solution?

What do you mean by early marriage? A girl under 18?

You are the kind of person dasparrow is talking about.
no just remain single and make sure u dont marry at all at all

First its the result of increase of sin. Secondly, with the rise of feminism its no longer easy to find a "woman like your mother"; and guys no longer want stress. They choose the easy way out: Baby Mama.

that being single has alot of emotinal trauma..it a myth to me.because if you are single by choice that means you have other things doing for yourself that you have always wanted..to achieve..but the others that allow family and social pressure to get to them usually fall into your category.I choose to remain single by choice not because i am looking for a man with money but Someone I will be at peace with..I have not found that person..and if I dont find him..then I would rather remain single ..forget the biological clock bla bla bla..things..I really don't care about those things..I am this kind of person that believe that i need not conceive and give birth before i can be a mother, must I?..no!..there are so many motherless children all over the place that need all love and care that they can get..if possible a mother figure....so there are so many things in this world that need our attention and contribution for the good of mankind...Marriage is not for every body.If you find love and a good and hard working person with a wonderful personality then marry but if not it is not the end of the world..one should not end up with necessary idiot and monster in sheep clothing just because society is on their neck to get married...I see marriage has one of those circle of life and not everyone will be captured in this cycle.So let the single women be please...na waooo!!
You speak a lot of sense in all your post. i love your independent thinking. I like people who challenge the bandwagon effect and try to devise their own school of thoughts that aptly suits their life. Don't let anyone define the quality of life you decide to live for yourself. Morever this issue is overflogged and overhyped. it is one of those phases in life.

I'm begging for an answer, why are there too many single ladies these days. Just heard of a stunt where a sister ( rich and graduate, working class with car who had no husband ) pulled a game-play to unseat her uneducated sister from her husband, i'm left bewildered why, why are there too many single sisters out-there left unmarried. I need answers. I really do as it beats my understanding.

Your post should read why are there so many single black women in the world.
Over 70 percent of black women in America have never been married, yet 55 percent of them have kids. Black women may have nice bodies, but their disgusting attitude is UNIVERSAL

People like you are the problem in this country.

Why should a 20 years old lady or a 24years old man be thinking about marriage? Were you trying to sound sarcastic or what exactly.

At 20 they'd probably still be in school even if they're not, they won't have a job. Why should a jobless lady think about marriage?

Any individual not above 27/26 shouldn't think about marriage.

O yeah, we are the problem till ladies and guys are desperately trying to settle down in their 30s. The lady especially is too desperate and can longer diligently choose so she settles for anyone and later cry that all men are...... Insert whatever adjective you like.

And who told you that people at 20 don't have jobs?

Let's assume the are even in school.

At 20, a lady starts preparing for marriage... Start becoming more homely, start doing personality checks and realise that fuckboys are off the table. She might find someone at 21, study him in a 2yr courtship and start prepping for wedding so that by 24/25/26, she is married.

Because she is still young, she is not pressured to settle and can end a relationship if the guy is not what she thought he was when she gets closer.

Whatever she thinks she is enjoying with random men can be enjoyed with one man if she marries right. Couples do date nights, go to clubs if inclined, go for vacation, have destination sex, have sex in their car/balconey/hotel/rooftop etc. As they like it.

Ditto a guy.

Can you blame your women? In the past, our mothers and grandmothers married and stuck with our broke fathers and grandfathers. But guess what? The minute our fathers and grandfathers finally hit it big and became rich, they dumped the woman of their youth - our mothers and grandmothers who stuck with them in trying times - and went on to marry some twenty-two year old.

African men can never be trusted and I will never advice any female related to me to settle with some broke Nigerian or African nigga. Go and make money first because it takes money to raise a family.

This is why Africans can never seem to get out of poverty. You don't even have sufficient money to take care of yourself yet you are dreaming of bringing a woman and innocent children into your poverty stricken life to suffer with you. Nonsense!
Amennnnn !!!!!!!
Re: Why Are There Too Many Single Ladies These Days? by Xmen149(m): 4:30pm On Sep 03, 2018
i think the question pertains to ladies of certain age limit.

they have way too much preference nowadays with riches at the top of their list (yet they wont want to get it with the man).

Even guys with honest works(keke,shoemakers,okada etc) dnt get chances with these ladies because the job is not viewed by them as classy in their preference.

coupled with the cost of marriage in the country.

they only start getting serious when their biological clock starts ticking.

Truth is: too much is expected of an Nigerian adult male so they will neglect marriage if for long period if you as a lady is bringing nothing to the table but additional stress then go for a younger specie when they have ended up fixing them selves

An open socket will always attract a waiting plug.

Are the girls responsible? If they are, the fvck boys have no other option than to look elsewhere.


you are right friend, and another thing I observed is that when a lady is rich she will never want to settle with a guy she is richer than but ladies always forget that most rich men go for poorer girls for marriage but the reverse is mostly not the same.
