Subomi-luv: This is actually the problem 'naija' women have. You hear your mothers,gfs,sisters talk about dictatorship and hence men are dictators. Actually the matter is deeper than you think and you look at it. Ask yourself this question....what thought dominates your mind? For me I'm constantly(obsessively) thinking on ways to make it financially,get into positions of authority and same goes for a lot of guys my age....you hardly see this in girls of same age. I ask myself why a lot of girls even the ones who swore they can never date a 'Yahoo boy' 2years ago are now comfortable in the passenger seats,go through the harshest of emotional traumas all for peanuts. Why don't they do the 'yahoo' themselves and save themselves the stress(emotionally and sexually). The truth is God designed man and woman to coexist in love,dependent on each other but fact is God also designed man to be in charge. Women who understand this will find peace instead of constantly fighting with an imaginary 'Adolf hitler'. I won't make any comparisons but the fact is a lot of Nigerian women lack this understanding due to over exposure to American culture(which is dirty and without moral foundations). Do you want a husband who splits all the bills equally with you i.e from school fees to gas money(in the name of gender equality). Right from a young age girls are sheltered from a lot of things and the boys pushed forward(carrying heavy objects,receiving lesser pocket money). Fact is guys do or are made to do a lot of things to please the woman;right from courting and even going into marriage take up a lot of responsibilities without complain. In this light I think massaging our egos isn't too much to do on the woman's part. Women have a privileged role in a home and that's why even though I have a wonderful Dad I still get along more and adore my mum a whole lot which is the same almost everywhere,so I wonder if not for selfishness why you still try to rub shoulders with a man all in the name of not being dictated to-paranoia! There's nothing equal about the genders;anatomically,naturally and even morally. 2 Likes |

UncleJJ: Ha ha, only broke men complain about name gerian girls. Dude this post shows you lack proper understanding of the complexities of life. So in your world, rich dudes are happy being cash cows for their WIVES, not short term girlfriend, WIVES? You should be comedian. Anyway let me ask you, since rich dudes want expensive chicks, at what point in the marriage does he stop the spending spree on her or does it go on forever? also if money is the only bond they share, what stops the woman from killing or divorcing the man or would he look over his shoulder forever? PREMISE What you have to understand is that gold diggers are usually from poor families, girls with good backgrounds and from average or rich families aren't gold diggers because they tend to have seen it all. CONCLUSION Gold diggers are everywhere not only nigeria, but since most Nigerians are poor, by implication, most nigerian girls are gold diggers. If you think I'm lying, look at those who loot public funds. |

Docii001 This is actually the problem 'naija' women have. You hear your mothers,gfs,sisters talk about dictatorship and hence men are dictators. Actually the matter is deeper than you think and you look at it. Ask yourself this question....what thought dominates your mind? As opposed to what? Nigerian/African culture, Asian culture, European Culture....? I think materialism and the poor state of the education system has damaged the whole culture of family in Naija. How many graduates do we have in Nigeria? How many of these so called graduates would have graduated had they taken their exams in a university in say, London. I studied at an arts university in America, and found that many of my peers were very left leaning in ideology and politics... They tended to have strong ideological views and saw excessive wealth or excessive displays of wealth as gratuitous. In Nigeria, it's difficult to find people with that kind of mentality. Most people want to flaunt and most see excess wealth as the goal. Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, I don't know, but it sure is the reason why everyone seems to be so damn materialistic.

50calibre PREMISE It's hard to say that though as it's hard to know the motive for marrying someone (unless you can read minds). Most people marry into their own social economic group I.e. the rich marry the rich, middle the middle, the poor the poor etc. So when you do get a rich person marry a poor person, is it just for the money? A gold digger is when money is the motivating factor. A very old rich guy/girl of 60 marrying a poorer guy/girl of 20 (probably a gold digger)... if they're the same age group then, who knows maybe there's love there. But it's usually easy to spot if you're dating a gold digger.... you can tell by what sort of demands you get and how they act with money. 1 Like |

Good one .Bootylicious]Getting married is a big deal, that is why it is important to follow this list of things to discuss before marriage. Covering these topics will ensure that you and your future husband have an understanding of what each of you want for the future. This list covers everything from children to money to who’s doing the dishes Friday night. 1. CHILDREN:It is natural to think about children as you are planning a wedding. Marriage means starting a family, even if “Family” for you doesn't include having kids. Before you get married you need to discuss if you will have children, how many kids you want, will you adopt, and when you will start growing your family if you are having children. Don’t go into your marriage thinking that you can change each other’s mind. It’s not fair to expect a man to father children he doesn’t want or to deny him children. If this is the case you would both be happier with someone else. 2. MONEY:Life cost money. There is no denying that, which is why money is one thing to discuss before marriage. It’s important that both of you have an understanding on how to handle money. You also need to decide if you will keep separate bank accounts or join together. You should also discuss who is going to pay the bills and how much money you will save each month? 3. FAMILY:Have you met his family yet? Do you like them? Now is the time to figure out how you will handle your families and where you will lay boundaries. It’s insane to enter a marriage and think that his parents or your parents aren’t going to try to interfere at some point. 4. GOALS: Does he know what your future goals are? Do you know his? If you are career minded and plan to put all you have into work for the next 5 years so you can get a certain promotion or make a certain amount of money he needs to know this. You also need to know how his goals of quitting his current job to become a wedding singer are going to affect your life. 5. WHERE ARE YOU LIVING?:What’s the plan after you get married? Maybe you already live together and that takes out some of need to discuss before marriage, but you may still want to know how long do you plan to stay in your current home or if you need to start saving up to buy a house in the near future. 6. RELIGION:Believe it or not but religion is a very important thing to discuss before marriage. Chances are if you guys come from different religious backgrounds the topic has come up more than once. Figure out before you get married how you will celebrate religious holidays and handle any religious differences. 7. SECRETS:Secrets are another thing to let go of. If you think there might be a nude picture of you floating around out there from an ex-boyfriend or a job you held that you aren’t so proud of, tell him. It’s always best to come clean than to live worrying about it slipping out. How horrible would it be for your husband to find out at a party with all his friends that you use to dress as a clown at little kids’ birthday parties? 8. FAITHFULNESS :You would think that taking a vow to love one another unconditionally would sum up each other ideas on faithfulness, but that isn’t always the case. Some people really do believe that if you are different area codes it’s okay to mess around. Know for sure you are on the same page when it comes to faithfulness before taking the walk down the aisle. 9. VALUES:Everyone has their own set of values. While most values don’t differ too much one thing to discuss before marriage is what values are most important to each of you. Then you can decide what values you will share as a family. 10. SHOWING LOVE:We all receive love differently. Some people feel more loved when you give them a compliment or constantly reassure them of your love. Others see love as action. Find out what things you can do for each other to show you love one another. 11. CHORES:Didn’t think chores were a thing to discuss before marriage? Trust me it’s a talk you absolutely want to have. You need to be clear on what your expectations are on keeping the house clean. Decide who is responsible for what chores now, so everyone knows who is at fault when the trash hasn’t been taken out and the toilet is filthy. 12. BUDGET:It’s not enough to just discuss your finances. You also need to work out a budget together. This budget should cover all your bills, create a plan to pay off any debt, and save for the future. A good budget will clearly state how much money is left over each month to spend on personal items. 13. QUALITY TIME:Another thing |

Brilliance9000: [b]You would only have to discuss all these, particularly number 2( MONEY) if you are looking to marry a Nigerian woman(most in my judgment love money more than their husbands, children and themselves...very sickening)....very arrogant, selfish, coterie of people. Do yourself a huge favor and marry yourself a white or other women besides Nigerian women. Most of these women besides Nigerian, already know all these and know how to treat their men. Don't start up debate with me, because I have been there; married a sister(Nigerian); was unhappy for years as with most of my friends(educated...doctors, engineers, lawyers) until we all set to try something different...non Nigerian women. WE ALL FOUND HAPPINESS AND HAVE WONDERFUL FAMILY. The common denominator is that these women have a different upbringing and approach to life.Money is never an issue with them...NEVER, even if you have it in abundance. It means virtually nothing to them. You and all your supporters are fools! How can you say all Nigerian women? Were you not conceived by a Nigerian mother? If you think being married to a white woman means you have a trouble free marriage, you are the biggest fool since Kingdom come.[/b] |

DOCTOR'S ADVICE - I don't like MouthAction Q I am a guy of 18, Doc, and last week I was given MouthAction for the very first time. To my astonishment, I did not like it very much!
