This one una just dey see snakes everywhere. They be looking like all these possessed Nigerian men boys... Any guy above 23 years old, who doesn't have a car, a house/Landed properties, and at least 100M in his account is a possessed failure, those sets of guys wine and dine with marine spirits. Girls dating such men boys are dating marine spirits without knowing. The worst part is not even the fact that they're broke, that's not even the one that annoys us ladies, the most annoying part is that instead of them to good and look for money, na relationship them carry for head, be looking for who will love them for who they are, haiiii God.

You believe that every instance of underage sex is RAPE or not consensual; but, in certain instances, consent may exist;
however, you would argue that the consenting party are too young to be permitted. However, what would you say about parents who allow their children to alter their sex before they reach puberty or who use hormone blockers to do so? Why did they approve of such behaviour? Why did they alter their sexual orientation before reaching the legal age of consent?

All these may not be the same thing as homosexuality but it's under the same umbrella. You can't just reject one and accept the other because you feel you don't like it or it doesn't pertain to you so it's wrong. They are all wrong and shouldn't be acceptable in a society. It's either you accept all or you reject all. You don't pick and choose.

There's no type of consent from a child, a child can't give consent plain and simple.

It's despicable for you to compare medical consent and sexual consent, I have no reason to argue this, I leave you to your devices.

To be honest with you, you're just a slave to the system that you yourself don't have your own standard of morality to live by based on what is humanly logical and right. Because the western law declares attraction to a minor as statutory rape but is cool with homosexuality, it now makes you give a dividing line amongst those vices.
They are on the same wavelength, it's not hurting anyone to feel any power, it is who I love and attracted to and you can't be prejudiced against that. And if you can't see the problem with those two vices in comparison, then your case is strong.

PS: I'm not sexually attracted to minors but even if I were, I know it's not the right thing to do and I would seek help immediately not to people who would make fun of me and judge me but would sympathize with me and help me to come off it. This is what the LGBTQ+ folks should be doing and not celebrating nonsense in the name of pride month, embracing diversity and other nonsense they say concerning it.

The fact that you think it's the same as RAPE is shocking.

I have made a clear distinction already, if you are in a relationship with someone that can't give consent it's RAPE, even a gay man chasing young boys that are not adults and can't give consent is rape.

Is incest right or wrong? You can't answer Yes or No instead you are speaking grammar because you have boxed yourself into a situation where you can't accept one immoral behavior and reject another, you have to either accept all or reject all otherwise it will puncture all your argument. I feel for you sha.

Let me repeat again. Any feeling or lifestyle that is unnatural or abnormal is WRONG. These include gaybriel, incest, peadophile, trans shit, human/animal shit etc. You can't tell us to accept these shit as natural and right.
It may not be the fault of the people in that category but they need to know that it is wrong and possibly seek help and not to encourage and justify it as normal. If we don't say the truth, we risk having an out of control society where everyone will use the same template to justify their abnormal cravings and want it validated. It's already happening

For example, what will you say if nudists start coming to office stark naked and say it is normal and everyone should accept it after all we were all born naked? Then put the burden on you to remove your eyes away from their nude bodies. since they are not technically hurting anyone and it is their right to live their authentic life and be accepted as gaybriels use to argue, will it be okay to allow them to go everywhere naked? If we don't allow them, aren't we now Bigots?

It is one thing to do wrong things but it another thing to justify it and claim it is right. This is the crux of my argument. I am not a saint but I will not do is to justify my bad behavior or claim it is right. I'll rather ask for help to overcome that bad behavior.

You have talked about gaybriels raising successful families. This is the most selfish thing i've seen. Why will gaybriels adopt a child born from the combination of a sperm and woman egg? If what they are doing is normal as you claim, why can't sperm + sperm or egg + egg produce a baby? Why should they adopt an innocent child to live under the same sex parenting? Did the child give them consent to live that way? Why will they use an innocent child to fulfill their own disgusting abnormal cravings? Have they thought about the possible mental and psychological health of the child as he/she grow up to find 2 men or 2 women masquerading as father and mother? What If the child feels disgusted about that and falls into depression or even commit suicide ? They don't care cos it is all about them fulfilling their own abnormal cravings, the child feelings can go to hell. What a selfish set of people otherwise they would have only adopted children 18 years and above who already understand this issue and given their consent to it.

This will be my last post on this issue. You can call me a bigot if you want, I don't care. I will always subscribe to common sense. Thank you.


Your argument is premise on the fact that procreation is the only basis for relationship/marriage?

If this is the case then you are wrong, there are lots of married people who wish to adopt, that doesn't make them unnatural.

Talking about vice as related to sex, there are many vices the society now sees as normal that was abnormal about 30- 50 years ago.

1. Sex before marriage
2. Baby mama
3. Marrying someone that is as young as your daughter.
4. Marrying an older woman and lots more.

Lol.....so u can call someone's sexual preference mental illness....?? Hahahahahaha


See...anything different from man and woman sex is a deviation from nature and genetics...including ur gay sex....

If u cannot explain how a person is both attracted to men and women at the same time with ur so called genetics then u don't have point.....




How else should I explain this, a child/animal can't give consent and that is the only important credential for a relationship.

If you read my initial post you should buy now understand the biology, it's not Farfetch, the male and female geno get separated in the womb, there's no male or female egg, all eggs in a woman's womb is female by default.

Sexual orientation is mostly caused by biological factors that start before birth.

People don’t decide who they’re attracted to, and therapy, treatment, or persuasion won’t change a person’s sexual orientation. This is what the discussion is about.

U must have erection to have consensual or consensual sex....so u don't have point by calling one person's sex impulse and urs genetic...


I am trying to explain the difference between a mental disorder and a human being having (legal) feeling for another person.

There are lots of things as related to human biology that we can't explain but don't know but one thing is certain, having sex with a child/animal is not biology it is just a mental illness.

U can choose not to act out all desires...

The first thing you need to understand is there is a difference between desire and mental disorders.

Just like the difference between a madman and everyone else is not just clothes but how they interact with humans.

In Nigeria a 45 year old man can marry a 14 years old girl, that should be a crime but for some reason if he has permission from the parents it's fine but we all know it's abnormal, the girls doesn't have a choice because she's not old enough.

The difference here is first both are adults of legal age, two no one is being taken advantage of (can you ask an animal for permission, do they have legal age, can they refuse such advance)

Remember just having sex with a woman is not enough, she has to agree, if she's not in agreement ITS RAPE, just because you have the impulse to sleep with someone doesn't make it right.

you as a Nigerian living in here does Nigeria look like a place that orientation could happen but every blessed day more of them are coming out which means theyve been here its just SM that has made ppl more aware of them

The truth is many married men and women are but have to hide because they know the implication, so many things are happening in Nigeria.

When I came up with this topic lots of people accused me of being gay, but there's another reason why I am concerned enough to investigate this.

The fact that it's present in our kind of society makes it very unlikely a product of indoctrination, people won't even talk about it in a forum like Nairaland where you can hide your identity, where exactly do you get indoctrinated.

Nigeria is a very conservative country which is heavily steeped in religion. This is why our society is intensely homophobic.

Most of the hatred stems from the ignorance and hatred which is propagated by religious leaders all over the country.

Homophobic rhetoric is drilled into the minds of young children right from the moment they can speak and understand words.

I've observed this first hand. I live in a typical 'face me, I slap you' neighborhood. My neighbours collectively happen to have a lot of children, all of them ranging from ages 6 to 13.

They all come out in the late afternoon everyday to play after school.

There's this kid that particularly piqued my interest (Let's call him Miracle)
Miracle is the kind of child you would call "different" He is rather effeminate in nature, but he is very intelligent and speaks with an air of quiet authority.

A lot of his mates constantly make fun of the boy because he's "girly"
At first, it was just light teasing, but over time, it has escalated into much more aggressive and straight up bullying. They constantly call him names like "woman wrapper" and "homo"

I can't help but feel sad for the kid. To make matters worse, his father is a violent jerk who constantly beats him up, perhaps to "straighten" his son. The kid is always downcast and appears much more quiet than usual. The sparkle in his eyes is fading.

All of this shit will accumulate and will intensely screw the kid up by the time he's a young adult. I don't want to intervene before my neighbours take it the wrong way.

The Nigerian society has failed Miracle. Instead of teaching our children to love and respect others who are "different" from us, we continue to sew the seeds of violence in their young hearts, and we keep the cycle of hatred going.

Nigerians generally fear what they do not understand. We should learn to live and let live.

Let us break the cycle.

The problem is, he may just be introverted and not gay but the very simple reason that he is different may screw him up for life, this is why we need to reorientate the young minds, being bullish and extroverted is not a trait that every child possess.

It's so bad that even as an adult male, if you say you don't have a girlfriend for over a period of time say 2 years people begin to suspect, it's possible I am having this to concentrate on.

So you feel God created transgender but somehow it's inconceivable to think they were created by God.

The question you fail to understand is, how did you come to feel how you feel about the opposite sex? Was it learned or is it generic, if it is generic then what make you so sure others are not generic.

..there is nothing genetic about it....what we have are just pple who have a broad spectrum of sexual desires and choose to pursue all these multiple desires they are feeling..

Show me a gay man...and I will show u his female exes and even the women he's still sleeping with... Same for lesbians .... cool


Just because a gay man slept with a woman because the environment doesn't permit it.

Do you know how many Nigerian men/guy have anal sex with their wife and girlfriend?

The idea of choice is not clear to you, the thing you call lust is inbuilt, you don't choose to feel that way.

Even as a child I know I was attracted to the opposite sex, it wasn't a choice, I didn't need to develop it, I didn't need to get lectured or try to understand why, all I know is once I am in close proximity I feel how I feel, I can't help it.

A choice implies I made a decision to feel that way.

In 2013 I made a post and cited some research materials for the above given topic. When this topic was discussed most people saw it as a debate that has no bases in Nigeria because according to most, it's something of no consequences, but over the years things have changed.

About a week ago I saw a video of guy almost linched by a group of young men in the NORTH for LOOKING/WALKING/SPEAKING IN A GIRLISH WAY LOL.

This topic is now more important than ever because though we consider this abnormal or against our religious orientation, we must agree there is something more and it deserves a thorough understanding.

Find below link to previous post: https://www.nairaland.com/1471542/being-gay-it-genetic-choice

Most people will ask why bring this back up, from experience, we have always been reactive, always trying to retrace our steps, everything from yahoo boys, to scamming, jungle justice, even kidnapping, it's until we begin to see real numbers of dead bodies or decay that we start reorientation, at which time lots of young minds are already too far gone.
I made a promise to re-evaluate the topic after 10 years.

The core of the research:
Homosexuality, “GAY” Is it Genetic or a Choice? Can the 'Choice' Be Changed?

Some research materials:
Research shows that the basic template for the body and brain of a human fetus is female in its structure. As a result men have some redundant female features such as nipples. Men also have mammary glands which do not function but retain the potential to produce milk. There are thousands of recorded cases of lactation in male prisoners of war where starvation led to a diseased liver failing to break down the hormones essential for breast-feeding.
As we now know, six to eight weeks after conception, a male fetus (XY) receives a massive dose of male hormones called androgens which first forms the testes, and then a second dose to alter the brain from a female format to a male configuration. If the male foetus does not receive enough male hormones at the appropriate time, one of two things may happen. Firstly, a baby boy may be born with a brain structure that is more feminine than masculine, in other words, a boy who will most likely be gay by puberty. Secondly, a genetic boy may be born with a fully functioning female brain and a set of male genitals. This person will be transgender.
This is a person who is biologically male but feeling as if he is a female. Sometimes a genetic male is born with a set of both male and female genitals.
Geneticist Anne Moir in her ground-breaking book Brainsex documents the many cases of genetic boys being born looking like girls and being raised as girls, only suddenly to find that they have penis and testicles that 'appear' at puberty.

Homosexuality is Part of History
Among the ancient Greeks, homosexuality was not only permitted, it was highly respected. The slim, boyish, youthful figure was their ideal of beauty, and paintings and statues were erected in its honour. Poems were written about the love that prominent older men had for young men. The Greeks believed that male homosexuality served a noble, higher purpose and it inspired youths to become worthy members of the community. They also found that young gay men proved to be some of their most courageous, successful warriors as they would fight 'side-by-side in love with each other'.
In Roman times, Julius Caesar was described as 'every woman's man and every man's woman.'
When Christianity frowned on same-sex relationships and God reportedly brought his vengeance down on the City of Sodom, homosexuality was banned, disappeared into the closet and wasn't seen in public again until recently. The Victorian era refused to acknowledge that homosexuality existed and, even if it did, it must be the Devil's work and would be severely punished. As we enter the 21st Century, older generations still believe that homosexuality is a recent phenomenon and an 'unnatural' act. The reality is that it has been around for as long as male foetuses missed out on their sufficient share of male hormones.

Is it Genetic or a Choice?
When Body Language author Allan Pease and geneticist Anne Moir appeared together on British television in 1991 for the launch of their books Brainsex (Mandarin Books) and Talk Language (HarperCollins), Moir revealed the results of her research which highlighted what scientists have known for years – homosexuality is inborn, not a choice.
Not only is homosexuality mostly inborn, but the environment in which we are raised plays a lesser role in our behaviour than was previously thought. Scientists have found that as an adolescent or adult, parents' efforts to suppress homosexual tendencies in their off-spring has practically no effect. And because the impact of male hormone (or lack of it) on the brain is the main culprit, most homosexuals are males.
There is no solid evidence that upbringing affects the likelihood of a child becoming homosexual.
For every lesbian (female body with a masculinised brain) there are about eight to ten gay men. If the gay and lesbian movement was to embrace this research and, if the education system taught these findings, homosexual and transsexual people would not encounter as much prejudice. Most people are more tolerant and accepting of a person who has inborn differences than they are of a person who, in their opinion, makes an unacceptable choice. Take, for example, Thalidomide babies, Parkinson's sufferers, autism or people who have cerebral palsy. The public is more accepting of these people because they are usually born with these conditions, as opposed to homosexuals who supposedly choose their lifestyle. Can we be critical of a person who is born left handed or dyslexic? Or with blue eyes and red hair? Or with a female brain in a male body? Most homosexual people believe that their homosexuality is a choice and, like many minority groups, often use public forums to display their 'choice', which generates negative attitudes from many members of the public.

Can the 'Choice' Be Changed?
Gays and lesbians do not choose their sexual orientation any more than heterosexuals do. Scientists and most human sexuality experts agree that homosexuality is an orientation that is unchangeable. Researchers believe that most homosexual orientation develops in the womb, that homosexual patterns are firmly fixed by around age five and that it is outside the control of the person. For centuries, techniques have been used to suppress homosexual feelings in 'sufferers' which have included breast amputation, castration, drug therapy, uterus removal, frontal lobotomy, psychotherapy, electric shock therapy, prayer meetings, spiritual counseling and exorcism. No therapies have ever succeeded.
The best they have been able to achieve is to make some bisexuals confine their sexual activities to members of the opposite sex or force some homosexuals to become celibate through guilt or fear, and to push many others to suicide.
Scientists have shown that homosexuality is an orientation that is unalterable. It's not a choice.
There is a greater than 90% chance that you, the reader, are heterosexual. Think about how difficult it would be to feel sexually attracted to someone of your own sex and you will begin to understand how it is virtually impossible to create feelings that do not already exist. If it was a choice, as many proclaim, why would any intelligent person choose a way of life that exposes them to so much hostility, prejudice and discrimination? Hormones are responsible, not human choices.
Are we Slaves to our Biology?
Scientists know how to change the sexuality of rats and monkeys in the womb. Some groups claim that we can control our likes and dislikes by will or choice and they insist that we can all reverse park or read street directories with the same ease. But scientists know this is unrealistic. You don't need to be a scientist to see that rabbits can't fly, ducks are lousy runners, most women have difficulty reading maps and men reading newspapers are temporarily deaf. Understanding brain structure differences makes us more tolerant of each other and allows us to have greater control over our destiny and to feel positive about our inclinations and choices.
Human intelligence has evolved to a point where we are more in control of our emotions than other animals and can think through our choices. Other animals don't think: they react to circumstances and this makes them slaves to their biology. Our biology is the motivations behind many of the choices we make that sometimes don't seem to make sense to us. So while we are more in control of ourselves than most other animals, we still can't completely buck the system. The biggest obstacle facing most people is their rejection of the idea that we are just another animal with a smart brain. This refusal makes these people victims of their biology.

Abstract from “why men don't listen & women can't read maps

Well long story short, there are two important question here;
1. Is it Genetic or a Choice?
If it is genetic, why do we have to criticize, force other on their sexual orientation? Isn’t that why we as humans have the right to make choice for ourselves

2. Can the 'Choice' Be Changed?
If it can’t be changed why pretend it can be changed by placing a ban on it, when in reality it can’t, instead of allowing these people live happily like every other person.

You are the one disgracing yourself, we are talking about one of the roots of this racism, all you did is to jump into discussion trying to make foolish point telling me that racism is a politics, even if it is a politics does that means that we black should over look it. Sometimes, You just have to sit down and think before rushing into people's comments.

Stop running around like a headless chicken, you mentioned WEST, so I clarified it for you.

The point is clear, we are human and as human we can't be completely objective all the time, racial bias is ingrained in each and every one, only ROBOTS act objectively all the time, as far as Nigerians are concerned, I have never seen any other country more subjective with ethnic bias.

We live in a world/country were this idea have lubricated our journey to success such that a deviation from this is seen as a betrayal of our very own core value system.

This is not a debate about right and wrong, it's a fact, the few of us with objective views are seen as outcast, it's not surprising as some see it as a ploy to carry favour.

Irrespective of your view you must agree, we have deviated from Rule-based-democracy to a more ethic-driven democracy.

Congrats to CR7

If Messi was playing in Saudi Arabian league

He would have scored 500 goals.


Anyway I laugh in Swahili 😂😂😂😂

This is a new way to know short people, hating tall people, 500 goals, if you remove 500 goals from his entire career goals, will he be among the top 100 players.

Which fact are you talking about, fact that you don't respect yourselves, is that the way west run their politics. Defending what is wrong is what I don't understand from your point of view

Lol! West, have you been to the West, stop disgracing yourself, race is a political component in every country.
