I'm not supporting bleaching and I don't bleach, neither will I bleach my kids . I blamed the men partially and I've renounced that view.

Without sounding sexist or bias or disrespectful: This comment of yours is the usual excuse from a typical female in an attempt to shy away from taking responsibity for their personal wellbeing. Seems blame shifting is a thing for you people. Women will always find a way of attributing the very problems they wrought on themselves to men(who seemingly have no idea how their individual preference may influence the outcome of personal acceptance). As if the very God that created women, decided they should be mindless and have poor self esteem!

By now you should realize that the characters in the entire conversation upon which the topic is consequent are WOMEN,there's no where in the convo' it suggested a man as the 'motivator',so stop this habit of apportioning blame to a gender,everything is not always about gender nuances.

I'd rather say what do you expect from people with low self esteem, who let themselves be pushed into bleaching just to satisfy others
You have solid points. I am not supporting bleaching. I just think that both sides, the bleachers and the people that promote bleaching, need to change. Both sides are the problem. If the bleachers stop but the ones supporting continue, it's like healing a snake bite without killing the snake. New sets of bleachers will arise as long as media and people don't stop sucking in the rest of the public to this bullshit.

Kill the snake or it will strike again.

New generations, new victims. The mentality must be killed on ALL SIDES.

WORLDPEACE:
Just say you are looking for justification for your bleaching. How come of all the things Nigerian men wish their women gave them it is bleaching you can give. Let me give you a list of things to do for Nigerian men before you bleach your skin:

1. Be an independent lady who can take care of her own needs.
2. Date a Nigerian man who is broker than you.
3. Respect him like your father.
4. Bleep his brains out when he asks for it.
5. When you marry him love his parents and siblings the way you love yours.
6. Give to him without looking down on him or expecting anything in return like Jesus said you should.
7. Be respectful to everyone you meet so that you can attract nothing but positivity to him.

When you have done the above successfully you may go ahead and bleach your skin till what you have left is just your skeleton. If you find bleaching easier to do than these things listed it means YOU think fair skin is more beautiful and you did it for yourself not any Nigerian man.

It's a lie , please don't mislead singles into thinking its a normal thing married couples do, but don't get caught. This thing you are saying will encourage singles to get married thinking it's just the way life goes, one must go back to their ex out of boredom or whatever. It's a lie o.

Well no, you have a point. But I just feel anybody can put a tortoise and lay animal blood and start up a crowd. .....it was insensitive of me to ask of a video. I guess I won't believe this thing unless I'm there live.

But why do we always see the picture of these things already out, why is there always no video of it actually emerging? People will just gather, and say something came out, something flew, let us see it in pure action .

Thank God you are a man. Now be honest to yourself. Do you know how many men have been dumped by girls they trained through school, helped their families for years? She just committed one abortion and she now feels entitled. Just the fact that he is scared and have doubts is enough cogent reason. No time is late to make the right decision. 10, 20 or even 30 years gap is not late to make the right decision.
So cuz a man trained a girl, yeah its wrong to jilt a guy, but money can be made at any age and time . But can you produce a new womb? Can you return a body made of flesh and blood? Abeg all these your comparisons are nothing compared to what the girl loses, and you all know it . That is why when you are bragging about how you dealt with a girl you would say you lost your money wooing her but what she will loose is times ten of that.

It is his decision to be made. It is not her entitlement to demand for a wedding. Gosh! What is wrong with the mentality of some guys these days. I million abortions doesn't equal marriage! Nobody should go into marriage with any emotional burden.
After ten years. She has a womb that has an expiry date, does he? Men like to marry young women, after ten Years, in the realm of women, she won't have the same suitors. Meanwhile at fourty some will still call him a young man , he will marry a 16 year old , nobody will care.

If it is your sister will you say this?
If it is your daughter ?
If you were the woman will you feel this way ?

Why are you guys selfish that you only care for yourselves and those who are lucky to be your beloved ? So men are free to eat what they want and if it suits them no more they throw it away in the trash can just as easily. You said it had effect on him too. Will people slut shame him? In this Africa, do people ask a man about his virginity? Well, enjoy your life.

I have tried to read a little, despite the numbness to everything in life that holds me, threatening to strangle me . I'm dead to life like the cold lurking outside , can't stop thinking of the child that was mine but is gone leaving me empty, I had no choice . Had no choice? The cynical Nigerian man would ask if your legs were forced open. But that's right. I should have let the innocent live and taken the shame. Except the child wouldn't have been left alone. Years later my nightmare is the heartless adults and fellow children surrounding him/her, calling ......Bastard. Smiling, sneering , high and low voices. Bastard....bastard......bastard.....no daddy......whispers saying don't mix with that child , he has no daddy . Nah I couldn't have borne that to happen. Write a composition about your family. That would've been the perfect paradise and excuse for primary school teachers to torture the kid.

My roommates make mockery of my last minute attempts to read. Guffawing sounds and snickers not so subtle as they pass by. Would've thought they would understand my pain being women, but surprisingly no . Funny enough I know they aren't saints but , I'll pass. Though my head is filled with images of blood and pain and loss and screams, I try to read. The dousing they gave me earlier comes to mind and my mouth moves an inch to attempt a smile.

Its time for the exam. I really hope these guys won't try to play a fast one on me. The indifferent examiners at the door of the main Hall search people for the necessary i.d and let them in. I'm back with my turtleneck sweater and jeans. People around me feverishly swipe through their books in a last attempt to assimilate facts before being called into the exam hall, hardly noticing me. When they do notice me it is with a frown and an occasional eyeing up and down with irritation and hatred, mostly the girls. Some others smile briefly and some even wave or attempt brief conversations and hugs. I always liked those non discriminating types.


The students have nearly all entered the exam halls. I look about me in despair. Couples and groups gist together on the stone benches a little distance away from the hall, oblivious to the ' exam fever ' . Jerry , the guy I paid this money to indirectly to write for me, is nowhere to be seen. To make things worse , I see mystery man amble towards me looking a bit agitated, but I feel this is just pretence. Damn it ! They planned this, to make an utter fool out of me and collect my money.

" I'm so sorry Jinx.........I'm so sorry, jerry can't make it, he was just rushed to the hospital....and I have something to do right now. You know what you will do.....take this " he shoves some bulky materials into my hands. " please, I never knew this would happen, just try and write this one, we will write two others for you " he sprints off, but I catch the glee on his face a minute before his face is totally averted. Smart guy, wouldn't write an exam for a sucker if he could help it.

So I'm stuck. Managed.to smuggle these in and I'm nervous as hell. Other students took advantage and have sharply distributed most of my expo around the hall. I'm numb, trying my best to look casual while viewing a paper under the table. I am not used to cheating. I feel a hand, heavy on my shoulder, a disgusted gaze above me and a harsh voice . The students close to me shift away with the agility and grace of angels. "GET UP !!! GET UP !!!! " A sharp rip of papers and it's like my life has been ripped apart symbolically. Everybody looks at me. The security man comes along, joins the invigilator who is so full of fury that I am afraid he will slap me. He growls his instruction through clenched teeth and a murderous stare.

" Cuff her. Let's go ! Don't beg me ! This is a warning to all of you !!"

Fifth of November.
My doomsday.
The words, the neglect, the mockery, the condemnation.

Happy Jinx.

Happy Birthday.
