Culture / Re: Many Nigerian Girls in nigeria have sugar daddy(aristo) by scorpio58(f): 7:43pm On Feb 24, 2013 |
I am an AA female. I have Nigerian friends that I truly love. I hear people talk about Africa tradition and culture and how they must stick to it to keep from being "Americanized". Let me tell you this. There are Africans, AA, and every culture and race in the world that have solid family values. They have females that are kept by men for money, they have thieves, murderers, drug addicts, liars, fornicators, and adulterers. The good and the wicked are worldwide and has always been since the beginning of time. |
Culture / Re: I Don't Like Black Skin by scorpio58(f): 5:44pm On Feb 24, 2013 |
Someone once told me that I let what I look like on the outside, affect how I feel on the inside. This was an over weight issue. I realized that I have a self worth and I refuse to let others validate me. I am a child of a great Creator who created himself in triple darkness. Black cannot come from white. White comes from black. Check the color scheme. The problem with people today is that they are too busy being visual rather than learning about who a person really is from the inside. Being black skinned does not make anyone evil. Embrace yourself with your black skin and know that you are beautiful. Skin creams do not hide your true character. If a person judge you by your color rather than the contents of your character, that person is the evil one. |
Culture / Re: Nairaland Official Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba Dictionary by scorpio58(f): 3:14am On Mar 30, 2011 |
I want to learn how to speak and write Igbo, Yoruba, and Hausa. I am looking at all of the posts. But, I am not sure if I am pronouncing the words right because I cannot hear them. |

Inked_Nerd: I am from the state of Mississippi, USA. I was searching the website for the culture and kinds of foods of Nigeria. I am interested in that part of Africa the most because I knew someone from there years ago. Some of the suggested sites had Nairaland web address on it. At first, I thought I could not join because I was AA. When I did, I was shocked at all of the topics on it. Nigeria is a place I want to visit some day. Also, I had a minister that is from Liberia. |

EzeUche: That is why I am eager to learn African culture. I never want to say or do anything offensive. I have already contacted The Center for African American Genealogical Research Incorporation. I asked them where can I get DNA testing to see what African ethnicities I descend from. I am now waiting for a response. |

Inked_Nerd: Thank you for the welcome. I am excited I was led to this website. |

EzeUche:Please forgive me for my ignorance. I said the word tribe only in a loving way. I know better now. I will find out how to contact one of the genealogical companies and hopefully, I can have peace in my heart of who I am. Thank you for your information and the corrective measure. |

EzeUche_: I am happy to learn of a name of a tribe I could possibly belong. I have always disliked my American assigned name. I would like to know more about my true roots. I am in the process of learning about self because I know that I am not truly myself because of what happened many years ago through the slave trade. |

Inked Nerd it is sad that you went through what you did here in America. If I were one of the people you had met, I would have been proud to embrace you. As a little girl, I was always amazed when another student came into my class from another country/culture. I was the one who always made friends with the new students. I knew I was going to learn something new from them. I am an African American and I was picked on by classmates all the time because I always made good grades, mostly A's. Some of my classmates wanted to fight me because I made good grades. Some of those sames children grew up to dislike others because of differences they have. We are not all negative towards Africans. For an AA to be negative towards Africans because they are Africans, is for them to be negative towards themselves. |

Romance / Younger Nigerian Men With Older African American Woman by scorpio58(f): 9:36pm On Mar 26, 2011 |
I am not expecting any positive responses because I was told not to. I just want to know if this kind of relationship can be positive and accepted by nigerian culture? |
