Black Love (Our Issues and Solutions) |
^ I don't know much about him, only seen him in a few movies perhaps. Is he a role model? ![]() |
pamcode:true that. so, basically the husband married a street woman. probably why he decided to go with the well brought up mistress?[/quote] |
swagwu:what about your own dad? |
Aikon:do men daydream about being wanted by women? how do you know his baby mamas don't prefer annie having him? ![]() |
panafrican:well, I think we just have to make what we can of the situation instead of looking for men who are not willing or able to be what a particular strata of society requires of them. The kids who are growing up without dads, how are they faring, or how have they fared? What resources are available to take the place of male role models in their lives? Are these resources sufficiently empowering them with what a father would have been expected to do? |
^true. |
romance section is listed on my profile as one of the sections I'm active in. I think that's a wrong impression. I probably visit politics more than I do romance, I mostly browse the latter when there's nothing much going on in the forum. |
^ you cant cook your own? ![]() |

update? |
what about the current Nigerian ones. |
New York U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch is rumored to be President Obama’s pick for the next Attorney General, and if she’s appointed, she’ll be the first African-American woman to hold the position. Before she was an appointed to the top job, she worked within the U.S. Attorney’s office to helped convict the NYPD cop who assaulted Haitian immigrant Abner Louima with a broom handle, in one of the highest-profile police brutality cases of the 1990s. Louima is black and the arrested officers were white, but Lynch said she didn’t want the case to become “a referendum on race.” President Bill Clinton first appointed to be a U.S. Attorney in 1999, and she served until 2001. She was appointed again by Obama in 2010. In between her terms, she was a partner at Hogan & Hartson, which has since been renamed Hogan Lowells, focusing on criminal litigation and white collar criminal defense. When she returned to the U.S. Attorney’s office for the second time in 2010, she noticed that the job had changed, to include more work fighting terrorism–her office helped convict the masterminds of the thwarted al-Qaeda scheme to attack the New York subway system. But even though the job has expanded, “the energy, dedication and commitment of the people in my office has not changed,” she wrote in her Harvard 30th Reunion Class Report in 2011. “I truly love coming to work every day.” Earlier this year, Lynch charged Rep. Michael Grimm, a Republican congressman from Staten Island, with perjury, wire fraud, obstruction of justice, and tax evasion for his dealings in a health-food restaurant he had operated before he ran for office. Lynch said Grimm was operating a “very simple scheme,” that allegedly involved under-reporting wages and earnings when filing his taxes. Grimm has pleaded not guilty. Lynch also found time for pro bono work–in 2005, she traveled to Rwanda to teach a trial advocacy workshop for the prosecutors at the Rwandan war crimes tribunal, to help restore justice after the genocide. “I listened to the genocide survivors as they told me how they were forced to hide under the dead to avoid capture, and watched as they showed me the machete scars they still carried,” she wrote in the Class Report. “But I learned the most as I saw how they carried on with life, reaching out to orphans to create new families, knitting together a future out of the scars of the past.” Lynch grew up in North Carolina, and was one of the only black students in her elementary school. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, she recalls being asked to re-take a standardized test after she scored higher than administrators expected. She went on to Harvard, where she studied English and loved Chaucer, and then to Harvard Law School. After graduation she went into corporate law, but took a massive pay cut to take a job at the Eastern District, because she wanted to do something “meaningful.” She lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two step-children. http://time.com/3572553/who-is-loretta-lynch/ |
terrible. |
what's so special about the stadium? ![]() I don't get it, does it signify development or something? ![]() there seems to be a lot of fanfare. |

I think this is more important than "who is happily married". the "happily" alone sounds like kids material, no offence. |
men, who do you consider your role model? why do you consider this person your model and who do you think is their role model? |
coogar:what is the meaning of all this? ![]() |
she's ok, unless people corrupt her. |
pickabeau1:bro, plz, learn to rise above your personal shortcomings and just dont post on a thread if you really dont have something worthwhile to contribute. i hate it when men show themselves as naggy, petty and malicious as women, its not a good look. just saying, no offence. dont be like scrat always chasing that elusive nut. |
coogar:oh well. no wonder you are single.why the personal attack? ![]() how exactly does this concern me? ![]() i didnt ask if you liked bushitos, neither do i remember seeking your validation, can you point to anywhere i have ever done that? ![]() the accent, the diction, not knowing which cutleries to use during dinner dates & so on and so forth can be depressing.then stay away from them and stick with what you like. surely it isnt rocket science? ![]() I didnt open the thread to advise you about your love life or dating requirements, you can see the other "counselors" in the section for that. |
Maybe, is that a bad thing? |
Well, the good thing is, technically he's still single if indeed he has not officially marrried anyone ( i doubt this though, Yoruba culture is too strict). So, any lady who still wants to try her luck and drag him to the altar and be the lucky woman, the floor is open for you to display your feminine wiles. |
Very strange to me, but i notice a lot of people have it. |
I must not be naija then. |
Were they marrying for love before? ![]() |
Anyway, lets not derail this beautiful thread plz. I am not the world police, whatever reason the people in your circle have for whatever you are noticing, na them sabi. Or e concern me? If yes, explain how, i'm curious. |
pickabeau1:thats interesting, maybe culture shock or something. |
to tell the truth, i feel nlers (or is it nigerians) are too hung up on accents. On nairaland alone, hardly a week goes by without a new thread being opened to attack people's accents. So, anyway, since there are enough threads already discussing accents, perhaps the issue can be skipped on this one, moreover, accent does not necessarily show in typing, so its not like people are hearing themselves speak unless they're on phone or something. Besides, i want to focus not on physical attributes, but the mindset called local, which is independent of accents. Very important. As long as we continue to disturb the western world for visas to enter their countries, we should not really complain all the time about accent. lets move on and also practice tolerance like the site owner is saying. |
