never heard it before. . . .all i know is black people are the same everywhere.
without slavery. . . .you and the people you call "akatas" would be kinsmen. . . . .for all you know, you and flavour flav might actually be first cousins.

when dna tests become cheaper to all and sundry, a lot of africans are going to belatedly realise they have cursed their own flesh and blood with the whole akata nonsense labelling. who is an "akata"? the black people in britain are not akatas, they went through the same ish like the blacks taken to america went through so there's a high degree of hypocrisy here. . . .
do you need to preach on a thread called akata, or why are you venting on me ? huh


and while you're at it, why not take your love message to boko haram where an impact is actually needed.

the fact does remain that many christian women are married to non-christian partners.

although this doesnt necessarily mean their union isnt strong, or that they're not happy.


it also doesnt mean there are no problems as stated here:

We find beloved sisters living a life of complains and regrets having husbands who show no care and love to them but desire love and care. These things are even commonly found in the Christian faith

that's the hypocrisy i am trying to highlight.

the ones taken to america and the caribbeans are easily labelled "akatas".
you don't see anyone calling the blacks taken to britain and europe "akatas". . . . .so what's the difference?
why dont you ask the africans labelled booty scratchers in america and the carribean, why the africans in europe and britain arent called the same.

abi you never heard the term african booty scratcher before? I guess to you, it refers to some martians.

i dont think anyone's disputing the fact that AA males are generally more goodlooking than african males in general and nigerians in particular.

however, as i pointed out before, not every culture places importance on looks.

neither does it mean there are no handsome african men.

[quote author=Mrs, Chima link=topic=833742.msg9981034#msg9981034 date=1326758838]If that was the case then what is your explanation with dark skinned Black Americans?   The same thing goes for North, Central, South, and East Africans as well.  Why are many of them "light skinned"?  They are mixed with European folks too huh?

Let just say all Black Americans are mixed with white folks, then why are some Nigerians who aren't mixed with white folks are light skinned?  

Skin pigmentation and levels of melanin has nothing to do with whether one is mixed or not.  If that was the case then that should suffice "light skinned" Africans are mixed as well.[/quote]1. all black americans arent mixed with white, though a significant number are.

2. not all light skinned nigerians arent not mixed with white.

in addition, an albinoid gene can cause light skin.

3. being dark skinned doesnt necessarily preclude white admixture.

4. europeans arent the only source of light skin.

they are more handsome if you are putting them to AA celebrity standards
AA emphasize looks, so they'd definitely veer towards igbos, as they share similar values when it comes to physical appearance.

onila:
some igbos look like AA. . . .AAs dont look like that just because they are of igbo descent but because they haved mixed with europeans

thats why they are lighter skinned than Africans
good point about the AA reflecting their mixed side.

you see why i sometimes agree with you because you do occasionally make sensible posts. wink
Culture › Re: Igbo-Nigerian Men Are The Most Handsome Men In Africa! by tpia5: 12:58am On Jan 17, 2012
igbos are more handsome in the conventional sense
i wouldnt necessarily say igbos are more handsome.

its just that most other tribes in nigeria [yoruba in particular] dont place as much emphasis on physical beauty and tend to not really celebrate it so much.

but from the midwest onwards through port harcourt area, good looks are considered very important.

not saying igbo men arent good looking though, but some of these things are very subjective.

^^nobody eats okro without stew.

the first picture is the way its usually served, if its not a gumbo [what you're referring to as soup].

the second photo is ila alasepo [what you're calling soup].

DONkollione:
^^

stew is red in color while soup has different colors eg green, yellow n so on. Stew is made of mostly tomatoes while soup has many ingredients. Wait r u yoruba?
is this what you mean:



stew with okro:

okro soup:

is that correct?
Food › Re: Yoruba People And Oily Food by tpia5: 12:21am On Jan 17, 2012
^^i think he means stew as in obe ata [tomato stew], and soup meaning stew with ingredients eg vegetable soup, ila asepo[ okro], etc.

interesting topic.

wish you could expantiate more.

Can you explain the difference between soup and stew while you're at it?

In nigeria, the two terms are used interchangeably so you really have to be more explicit.

where in nigeria do people eat meals without stew? huh

Are you from somewhere else in africa?

You specifically mentioned eba with stew. Do you eat your own eba without stew?

If you need to network with your own people then ask around and see where you can find them.
