yeah your right but honestly... ppl with this kind of thought process really baffle me. His way of showing his african masculinity is by making the african woman feel inferior that is intelligence to him

You nailed it! Now that you know the frustration, please be merciful! You can imagine the sexxxxual mental torture a person is going through when your brrreats enter the discussion from nowhere wink

By the way, you're too pretty to get into the mud with those whose oestrogen levels surpass testosterone. A pretty gal like you should be used to handling unwelcome attention from the opposite sex.

If you want the MALE view point on this topic, the hardworking, too busy, no-time -to-fight-women MEN of the Family section will eventually show, they just don't have time to surf Nairaland at all hours of the day and night, everyday.

That is how most Nigerian bred men are. They are chauvinists. And the way they act online is the way they act in real life. When I was in Nigeria and I was taking public transportation, you hear Nigerian men make hateful utterances about women. It also irks them when they see women driving in nice cars that they the men cannot afford. Nigeria is a terrible hostile country to live in if you are a woman.

As to why Nigerians obsess with marriage, well I think it is due to a number of reasons:

1. Many Nigerians cannot afford a balanced 3 square meal or even a nutritious meal. By forcing people to get married, Nigerians can be assured that they will get to eat rice and meat and have something to drink each Saturday and even pack food home for their battalions of hungry children.

2. Nigerians rarely travel the world for tourism purposes like the whites do. So Nigerians depend on weddings and birthday parties as an avenue to socialize and have fun. We don't have sea world, Disneyland, six flags great adventure and other great theme parks in Nigeria like in the USA. So the only option Nigerians have is to attend social functions like weddings where they will be free food and drinks and where they can eat and drink themselves to stupor. So if more and more people don't get married, they won't have free food to eat or pack home anymore and they won't have an avenue to socialize and have fun.

3. There is a saying that misery likes company. Believe it or not, most Nigerians are unhappily married - as evidenced by the high rate of domestic violence and high rates of infidelity occurring in Nigerian marriages - and secretly wish they were still single. As a result, they put pressure on single men and women to get married so that the single folks will join them in their misery club. Don't you see all the crazy threads in the family section? Married women worrying about their loose v*a*g*i*n*a after child birth and what not. They know fully well that their husbands can dump them at anytime for a fresher, tighter younger v*a*g*i*n*a and there is absolutely nothing they will be able to do about it should that occur since there are no laws in place to protect women in Nigeria.

So these are some of the reasons why I think Nigerians obsess with marriage.
