Could it be why men now are more red pilling  I think it's been a long term trait of women to admire insecurity and danger because of its adrenaline yet desire stability and security  Have you seen this thread?

"The day the child realizes that all adults are imperfect, he becomes an adolescent; the day he forgives them, he becomes an adult; the day he forgives himself, he becomes wise." While you are not responsible for the programming you received in childhood, as an adult, you are 100% responsible for fixing it, breaking dysfunctional cycles, and managing your own healing and growth. Though upbringing shapes initial behaviors, adulthood requires taking ownership to rewrite your narrative and consciously choose your actions. Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them, sometimes they forgive them." - Oscar Wilde. Don't take this trauma to your future relationships because you will continue to repeat the cycle instead of you learning from it and making your own life work. You will be trying to avenge your site your dad when he has a different personality, different state of mind, different age of love and marriage, different economy, different generation, and so on. You will be doing the work that wasn't given to you. You won't break free because you've made judgement on what you currently see. "What an adult sees sitting, a child climbing on the tallest tree cannot see" - African Proverb. This means that a son may lack the life experience to see the true strength or wisdom behind his father’s choices. 5 Likes 2 Shares

You omitted 1988 when Super Eagles, then known as "Green Eagles" were denied the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) title in a controversial 1-0 final loss to Cameroon on March 27, 1988, in Casablanca, Morocco. Nigerian forward Henry Nwosu had a header in the first half disallowed for offside by the Mauritanian referee Idrissa Sarr, a decision widely regarded as controversial. https://www.tiktok.com/video/7584868171186834710 2 Likes |

Precious201010:No it is not. I am pro African and not Tinubu's fan but a kiss on the hand is gentlemanly. However where I agree with you is where did we learn this from? He can't try it with some people's wives so culture itself is not one single line. The French president is known for his kisses that has almost got him to trouble. Is it an African culture? No. Is it slave mentality? I wouldn't agree with you on that. https://www.tiktok.com/video/7524746819742485792 https://www.tiktok.com/video/7513178490108136735 Kissing hands is a symbolic British royal protocol where new Prime Ministers and senior officials greet the monarch, typically involving a light touch of lips to the hand. While often done formally by men, it is not mandatory, and the act is more of a traditional gesture of loyalty than a literal, prolonged kiss. 7 Likes 1 Share

nlfpmod:I do not need to do that. I was on NL at the beginning so I am not new to it. NL content are user generated. It is not desperate for traffic. However, I know over time, users like a fair system. There was a time a thread was opened before the NL server crashed where mods were called out for not pushing posts that were first created to the FP ahead of others that were just created. People want to know what the criteria is. Moreover, even FP was debatable. We didn't have this much craze over FP in the past because of the genuineness of the users to interact in topics they cared about. Lastly, if there was a FP and when there was a FP, there was a standard to it. I often cite Naptu2 posts and you see some journalism there. Moreover it's not about journalism alone but the quality of what is on the FP and why it is there, mostly for visitors. Except the users you are pushing to FP are paying (aka sponsored content), it is unfair and unfortunate to keep pushing certain users to the FP when others are doing same and they can see the obvious cheating like Morocco has right now with AFCON. |
| Education › Re: Public Schools In Lagos Prove Their Worth By Outperforming Private Schools by SixSeven: 6:40pm On Mar 18*. Modified: 7:02pm On Mar 18 |
It's even a disgrace that public schools are not the standards and a bigger disgrace that those who benefitted from free education in the past have made things worse. One thing she said that caught my attention was how the person looked down on her upon hearing the location of the school. It wasn't Vetland, it was because they heard Agege. From an early age, Nigerians learn how to oppress and not be proud of who they are and what they have. Do you know I once saw the Agege Motor road on a museum abroad? Yes, with those yellow danfo buses that the Lagos State Government wants to take out for a version of their own artificial city like Dubai? The way we are impressed by foreign things and want to live a foreign life must be studied by the education ministry so they can curb this mindset from an early age. Edit: about the Agege motor road seen abroad. Is it wrong for Lagos state to phase them out? Not necessarily. The state wants to have proper buses for Lagosians but Nigeria's biggest challenge is still corruption because some certain individuals want to control everything so they don't give it out to the regular person. What they do is destroy what the common man has and empower their own to control the money. We saw the example with the taxi business owned by the Bangladeshi guy who was killed in NYC. What that painting did was to remind you of the identity of a people. You know once you see yellow and black stripes, this is Lagos. That is identity but our leaders don't know who they are so little things like that don't matter. They want to repost what they have seen abroad without regard to their own identity. I cannot still forget that Governor Ambode once said in public that he will make Lagos a Dubai. If the number 1 can say that, what do you expect from the people working with him? The last Governor who showed that he knew the identity of his state in recent times was Fashola. The same people who looked down on danfo buses in Lagos will go to that foreign country and embrace it because they can see their country thetr. Again, why do we wait for foreign people to take what we don't value then when we see it with them, we now become proud of it? Is this why we want the Grammys, Oscars and everything that does not belong to us? Proudly Agege 🇳🇬 Eko ò ní bà jẹ́

| Culture › Re: Oba Of Benin Suspends Palace Queen, Chiefs by SixSeven: 6:02pm On Mar 18 |
hammedroyabat:But that's what the post is saying. The Benin Traditional Council views this incident with the utmost gravity. The Palace is not a public thoroughfare or a location for frivolous content creation, it is the ancient and spiritual seat of the Oba of Benin, governed by centuries of tradition, custom, and sacred protocols,” he said. I hope you read this. When the Ọba of Lagos palace was ransacked, I felt such a pity for the people of Lagos because the way they showed disregard to the palace was more than words. If the people can not protect their heritage then they don't have respect for the stool. The king is only ruling out of fiat. Most ọba in Yoruba land and Nigeria have lost it to social media. In fact, social media has shown how small many of them are. I know it's going round, not just Yoruba land but I am specifically choosing Yoruba land because you see obas eating in public, rolling with everyone, taking pictures, attending every event. What makes things regal is how you conduct yourself and protect the institution. We are all seeing Tinubu's visit to the England King and they have official page. People sold themselves for mirrors, they are now doing the same thing for cameras📷 😣 18 Likes 1 Share

Never show any form of emotion or weakness before a woman unless it's your mother. This includes crying in front of them. These days, women are trying to change the narrative of strong men saying that he needs to cry, dadidadida. Crying doesn't make women feel secure with men. Cry in your man cave as a man but never show weakness in front of women. They will use it against you. Although men have cried because of death and things like that, it is understandable but for world problems, no. Your number 5 is contradictory. I think you are referring to religiosity or maybe it is better to say have a personal relationship wit with God instead of groupthink. Your number 2 and 3, invest in yourself first and if you help a woman, do not expect gratitude. A lot of people expect that because they spent on a woman, she should pay back in marriage, sex or whatever. Help her because she is a human being. Help her because she deserves it but never invest your emotions in it. That is the mistake. Do not expect reward from her because that means you are doing it for a different reason. There is a way you will do things that she will be the one begging you to marry her and it is always important to let her love you more than you do. Not obsession because that will be possessive but the way you wrote in number 1 about your mother, a woman who has your best interests at heart will help you as a wife and mother to your children. Most men don't look at who will give birth to their children, they just plant their seeds anyhow. At 28, you are smart enough to write this but let me remind you of something ACT WITH KINDNESS BUT DO NOT EXPECT GRATITUDE. https://www.tiktok.com/video/7506329447809699102 4 Likes 2 Shares
