I didn't understand what the heck was going on back then but it was good! The guy died and the angelis won't let him enter heaven (don't know why) and he had to go from one realm to another searcch for something (I don't know what)

SLUMDOG MILLONAIRE!!!

I already did my rah rah reh reh ooo ahhh over SM on the movie review thread but I can always do it again. . .

The Movie was AWESOME. It is the movie to see this year, . . At least before the Oscars!!

Rotflmao, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it's time the did a movie in Lagos to showcase it in all it's squalorific splendor!! cheesy

A couple of friends took offense to the fact that I thot we've got Mumbai beat in squalordom and all we needed was someone to do it justice.

Oh Yeah. . .SM beats COG anyday and it doesn't matter that I haven't seen COG. smiley

Let me reteriate my point - Mother in laws fighting with their daughter in laws is not tradition/Culture. It's an individual thing.

Women being forced to drink their dead husband's bath water for assurance is part of the culture that caters to the men's egos.

Ka gani?

men don't force men to do nothing, women force women to do stuff. why is it common practice to find that most feud in families are from mother-inlaws to their sons wives. and the attack she will receive the most will come from his sisters and aunts like they will never marry themselves. abeg u can't win this one oooo
Okay, I'll give you that but it isn't culture, it's just petty jealousy!!

I am so winning this. . . how can you doubt that??!! cheesy

ask ur fellow women. why is it that it has to be the man to die for this tradition to take place?  huh huh huh
Ayiiiiin? huh huh

Abeg, if the men don't die, whose corpse water will the women be force to drink?


My Point is - Why don't men drink the bath water of their dead wives??!!  Why??!

If they did, I bet the tradition will be long gone by now!!

It makes them feel important to have women subjected to this depravity just for their sake and they feel even more so because they have gotten other women to do the execution.

Unfortunately, they fail to see that all these things they do to make themselves feel important only shows how insecure they are.  cry cry

@ Topup
Seriously, don't feel defensive. . . no one here can read you posts and think you stupid. Your analytic mind is admirable and it does take a certain maturity to want to know the truth even if it might be painful. I just don't think you should waste your time and mind on someone who has proven he really has not appreciation for them. Some of our words may be strongly worded but it's not an attack on you (or anyone else for that matter), it's just frustration over the fact that you don't seem to know that you are way to good for this guy!

Like H202 said, even if you two become friends, know there is a limit to the topics you should discuss with him.

Good Luck!

Iyalode, I wonderfully and joyfully yonda!

Thanks but no thanks! There can be only one and you are it!!

Besides, being iyalode is too much work jare and I am way too lazy for that.

H2O2:
topup,

Hope I didn't confuse you with my "insight" . What I meant was, it takes a great deal of mental maturity to get over an "ex", especially one that has caused you this much heartache. You gave him the key to your heart, made yourself vulnerable to him and probably had your mind set on marriage. You were open with him about your needs and desires and expected him to be different from those "other guys", but unfortunately your love was unrequited and his actions showed that he undervalued you and wasn't ready for what you had/have to offer him. The grief and shock of that encounter is still with you and welcoming him back in such a short time might be unhealthy for you.

If you do decide to remain very good friends, keep in mind that you are his ex and there are some topics of discussion that must be swept under the rug; don't even bother discussing them with him.

Wish you luck!
Lawd-a-mercy!! I knew you had a sensitive side but I never thought I'd live to see the day.

I'm just so. . . so. . . https://smiley.onegreatguy.net/bye.gif happy!

bcuz they are thats why we are having this discussion. when a woman's husband dies in the old igboland, who are the first to insist that the wife drinks the water used to wash the corpse? u don't know? i will tell u, the other women that are inlaws or friends of the husband's family. there are many more from where that came from  tongue tongue tongue
Just because the women execute these dastardly deeds does not mean they are truly in charge. Pray tell what you think would happen if the decide not to do it? The men get all up in arms about it of course, ranting and raving about how the women are trying to do away with the culture because of enlightenment.

Another thing, why is it the woman who has to drink the bath water of her dead husband's corpse? Hmmm [img]http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/23.gif

Ya getting the picture now?
