Zulu nation celebrates 40 years of Reed Dance.

Around 40,000 virgins participated in this year Reed dance.


The Reed Dance tradition, which was intended to protect women from rape and promote staying pure until marriage, was started by King Mpande kaSenzangakhona in the 1800s.

King Mpande was inspired to start the Reed Dance after hearing that young women used reeds to defend themselves from men who tried to attack them.

The maidens brought the reeds to the palace, and they were used as a symbol of protection against men who preyed on women. King Mpande decided to have a ceremony to encourage maidens to remain virgins until they were married.

It wasn’t until 1984 that King Zwelithini kaBhekuzulu and Queen Regent Mantfombi kaSobhuza Dlamini-Zulu revived the Reed Dance. Initially, only daughters of the Zulu royal family attended the ceremony.

On Saturday, King Misuzulu kaZwelithini celebrated 40 years since the ceremony was revived.

Good
Very beautiful!
When you poke an average Nigerian girl (15-21 years) that's already a WHORÉ with minimum of 3-5 BODYCOUNT now, they'll ask you as a man if you're a virgin too grin grin grin
Shameless whorés.
Where in the world is virginity affiliated to men?
Do men have hymen?
Virginity is a inborn asset for women, while men grow up to work for their own assets...

Nigerians should priotize this type of culture.
JUST LIKE MOST CHURCHES NOW DEMAND FOR MEDICAL COMPATIBILITY TESTS BEFORE WEDDING NOW, VIRGINITY TEST SHOULD BE INCLUDED AS WELL.
A GIRL NOT FOUND TO BE A VIRGIN BEFORE WEDDING SHOULD BE MADE TO FACE SOME DISCIPLINES AND PENALTIES, HER PARENTS SHOULD ALSO BE PENALISED AS WELL FOR RAISING A WHORÉ.

Sexual purity tells A LOT about a girl's

- personality
- morality
- discipline
- fear of God
- THE TYPE OF HOME SHE CAME OUT FROM AND HOW RESPONSIBLE HER PARENTS ARE - ESPECIALLY HER MOTHER.
ETC.


There's absolutely nothing like LOW BODYCOUNT.
If you're not a virgin, no one alive can know your true BODYCOUNT and 99.9999999% of girls are never honest about the true figure.
So a man with functional brains knows that if you're not a virgin, THEN YOU'RE A WHØRÉ.

A Whørē is not a girl of good value
A Whørē DOESN'T DESERVE full brideprice...
When you marry a Whørē, NEVER SLEEP WITH YOUR TWO EYES CLOSED....


A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR A FÓOL...

Chastity is a great virtue

To secure yourself for now and eternity, please read:

Do you know that you are to live/exist forever, even after putting off your body (i.e death)?

A Human being is actually a spirit residing in a body. Dead body means the person inside (who is a spirit) has left, to meet God for his/her just reward.

To get set/saved for Now and WHEN you will leave your body;
Please accept Jesus into Your Heart as Lord and Saviour TODAY and live for Him!

You are not promised tomorrow!

There's no other Perfect sacrifice for Your sin (they must be paid for before the God Almighty of Justice) except that of Jesus. Acts 4:12

Adam's sin nature, which you inherited through bloodline and your sins, have been fully paid for/handled by God's Eternal Word who became a man, Jesus. He died in your place (God's mercy) and rose with eternal life for you. John 3:16


TO GET SAVED, PLEASE SAY OUT LOUD:
Dear Loving God, I thank You that Jesus died and rose for my salvation. I declare Jesus my Lord and Saviour and receive eternal life into my heart TODAY! Thank You for washing my sins away and lovingly making me brand new, your child in Jesus Name, Amen! (Romans 10:9-10, John 1:12-14)

CONGRATULATIONS! You are now a Righteous Child of God! Kindly google, get/download and study the Bible and Rhapsody of Realities regularly. (1Peter 2:1-4)

Please message me for more information. God Bless You!
