oga, I schooled in all boys seminary School..

Humans can be influenced into indulging in same sex activities..
Take it or leave it

Influenced into doing something does not make them innately gay. People like to explore, they can try out new things, but that does not make them gay and it's not sustainable. Homosexuality is not like alcoholism.

Ladies and gentlemen ( and those in-between)

I know Nigerians are blessed with quarreling and anything associated with it

you guys MUST NOT reply every mentions...it's not among the 10 commandments.

Say your point and that's it... No need forming senior advocate for nairaland.

Back to the thread...

Danielhouston you are a gifted writer... Maybe you should try writing a book about your experience in Germany... It may be a best selling.

I would love if you could write a bit on the political structure in Germany (that's if you have any idea on it)

I really want to know what's fueling there socialist economy.

Thanks.




Thanks for the compliment. I know about the political structure in Germany but it’s too complicated and long to put into writing. If I have to explain that, it would feel like I’m writing a masters thesis. You can find the information online. Let me know if you have other questions.

Please, everybody arguing over homosexuality should please collect one another's number, and create a WhatsApp group for these your arguments.

About two to three pages already wasted with unnecessary rantings.

I made buns and egg roll today. I know it looks like olumo rock but I go chop am like that. The good thing about living in Germany is that you have unlimited access to the internet and you can watch YouTube tutorials to learn how to cook certain foods.

I also cooked Nigerian stew which I intend to eat throughout next week. My friends will be visiting me today and I know they’ll go through my fridge. I added a lot of pepper in the stew so they won’t be able to eat it.
Oyibo don’t like to share but they like to eat. Deal with them by adding pepper.

There is this religious African girl in my building and she’s so annoying. I don’t know where she’s from because I’ve never spoken to her but I’m guessing she’s from Nigeria or Kenya. She disturbs the entire neighborhood with her loud prayers and she prays 4 times a day.

I’m all for practicing your religion and I pray too, but this girl is something else. You know how they pray in Mountain of Fire? That’s exactly how she prays and she’s very loud. You can hear her from your kitchen. When she starts praying, anything you’re doing will be disturbed.
She starts by playing guitar and singing loudly for 20 minutes, then she starts shouting “Jesus, Jesus!!” and the prayer has not even started yet.

What particularly annoys me is that she prays when everyone is sleeping. I have to be at work at 8:30 and she starts praying at 5:00 am. She disrupts my sleep, even with my windows closed. My flat is directly under hers, so I suffer it more than others. I need my 8 hours of sleep.
The neighbors have tried to talk to her but she does not listen to anybody. They have made legal complaints to the Landlord and I’m sure she got some letters.

My neighbors are mostly young people and they don’t like to call the police on any one. But I know one day, they’ll get enough of her and call the police or take her to court. She thinks Jesus will save her from legal troubles, she will soon learn.

Na wa for you o. Allow them to argue but in a constructive manner.

To the bone of contention...
Everyone has their views concerning being gay. Environment plays an important role in shaping people, that's a fact. If you keep psyching someone up with stuff say gay stuff right from childhood, there's no how the impact wouldn't be felt. It's just like seeing them doing it in movies, cartoons, your WhatsApp emoji et Al. You get used to seeing it and you move on. What about does who fancy having sex with animals? Some gays won't see it as normal.
It's just something that part of the world have to accept. If you can't conform with it, you move on.
It's a good thing Dan tries his best to enlighten us about these stuff so that if anyone here arrives Berlin, they wouldn't be surprised in any way.
Just do what's right, if you have principles, you don't necessarily have to compromise yourself just to make that money even though it makes life smooth grin

Kikikiki... That's what some people feel Yorubas do grin

That lady should calm down, it's not a war grin Some will be scattering things everywhere in the name of praying. Just respect your neighbours, it's not good disturbing everyone in such a manner.

neurosci:


But you're doing the very same thing @bolded. Why would you jump into a conclusion that people who behave in a certain way are products of dysfunctional societies? Do you know their stories personally? As a student of psychology, what is the size of your body of research participants before your gross generalization? Where did you see someone getting married to animals - who officiated that marriage and who issued the marriage certificate? What legal processes of divorce or prenuptial agreements are involved in such marriages? And how did you come to the conclusion that a thing, without any obvious inherent consequences of it, is a "bad effect of civilization?"
-I merely expressed my opinion unlike him that was imposing his views on others( throwing tantrums like a bedwetting teenager because the other posters did not agree with him).
- I didn't jump into conclusion about dysfunctional family rather you are the one that jumped into conclusion by assuming I did. Dysfunctional families breeds children that are emotionally messed up with different negative emotions and attitudes. It's one of the factors that leads to drug abuse, reckless living, self-mutilation, depression, anxiety, unstable relationships, abnormal behaviors and all that shit. Help yourself by reading more.
- Well, imagine you don't even Know people are marrying their pets, having sexual relationship with them. It has not been legalized in most countries but just like we are now accepting gays, it will happen.
Like I said, help yourself with some books.

What are you guys fighting about this time? Somebody is still mad about gay guys? Wait until I attend gay pride this month. I will post the pictures here and share the story in capital letters. You better find a rock to hit your head.

You will not come to this thread to get the information you want, and then block others from getting information because you think they’re “abnormal”. I’m here to tell it all. Which means I’m talking about “EVERYTHING”.

I went out with my American friends yesterday to celebrate 4th of July and eat burger. The burger was terrible and I couldn’t eat it. I ate half of it and complained to the manager. He told me not to pay for it if I didn’t like it. So I only paid for the beer, which was €4.

I took some pictures for you guys and my friends were asking why I was taking pictures like a tourist. I didn’t want to tell them I was writing a blog on Nairaland. You know Americans don’t know how to mind their business.
