The obsession with marriage among Nigerian females is something I still struggle to understand. Admittedly, I never grew up in Nigeria but I was baffled when I came over (for NYSC) to see the number of females that saw marriage as the immediate next step. Forget the career aspect for a second, what about ones personal development and growth? There is never a "right" time for marriage but there are surely better suited times. However at the end of the day, to each is own. No right or wrong way to live this life when it comes to deciding between marriage or career. Some may believe marriage will bring that needed personal growth.

Just my opinion (I know not asked for ).

MrsNwaAmaikpe:



Humans whether man or woman should have their career as priority.

A woman who cannot take care of her basic needs from the proceeds of her career before going into marriage is a potential punching bag and slave when things turn sour.

This is the 21st century, do not be pressured into marriage.

If you have unquenchable conji , get a intimacy gadget or cucumber. If you can't afford it, use candle.

chigoizie7:
Come and see all of them shouting career.

But none of them is pursuing any. Well, except for olosho careers .

TheRedpillguy:

Lol. U women think career is important more than a family. Even though thy have time working against that. Well a hot, young girl with a company is sexy. But nobody cares about an old woman with a company. Thy are invincible. Men can build all their life have money and still be attractive. Women don't know that thy are working against themselfs

akaahs:

Yonce:


Nigerian ladies didn't wake up one day and collectively decide to obsess about marriage.

The society, their nuclear and extended families and even strangers place this huge burden of finding a husband on them.
If she's without a husband at a certain age, she's no better than a leper. . .and so you can't blame them for avoiding stigmatization by thinking/obsessing about marriage 24/7

QuickStandard:
So guys answer this question a friend once asked me.



I said #100,000.
He said never, that the family only have #50,000.

And he explained.

And he was spot on.

Now second question? Who working class woman help, when the man still pays the rent, school fees, feeding, clothing and all expenses?

Just thinking out loud.

Feminist, food don land.

TheRedpillguy:

Hehe well don't mind that NYSC guy. Truth is women sexual value in anywhere in the world is the same. They are hot from 17 then when they get to 30, they are not hot. The people that rush you to get married know this becouse they know, you will have a better choice of a man when you are young, cus then. U have a pool of men that are just inline. When you get old thou, that pool dry up real quick and you are left with those potbelly, soyboy, turd etc. Nobody cares how much money woman have, if she is not young and beautiful. She is invincible

Mindfulness:


Let this be their problem. This is none of your business.

pocohantas:


Oh, you no get wahala. We all need a husband like you, not the one that will stress us till all our blouse becomes off-shoulder. I will keep this in mind.

safarigirl:
Career

Once I have established myself, I can enter marriage knowing I have something to offer my partner. It is hard to find footing in your career after marriage.

I don't want to be anyone's liability, so, I would rather I have built myself to a reasonable extent, before joining forces with anyone

There ought to be a balance. None should take precedence over the other.

You don't believe a man can love a woman?
