GentleMimi: Intelligent woman all the way,no argument there. You have no idea how bliss it is tto be in my shoes...got a woman who's intelligent and gentle....gentility here is a strand of character and enquestionable element for all round success in any life endeavour...just because your wife is intelligent does not mean she cannot take rash decissions emmotionally driven as the core of a woman is...the scorn of an intelligent woman is sure murder.....neat and untraceable...you need one that can take that last minute pause before taking aactions when present circumstances should on a default throw her gaga.....that extra pause, calmness, all embeded in gentility might be the difference between life and death of a husband....deatth here myt not be physical death...it could be expressed in any form....financial, emotional, e.t.c.....all these a woman can influence in marriage....I'm Damn lucky....will advice fellow guys to get such women...enough intelligent women out there who will wear you out with bs. Particularly those ones that just wanna prove to you that they are intelligent. You go taya. 1 Like |

bukatyne: I will not devalue love and its meaning by attempting a definition. I will just give some illustrative lines. Forget scriptural exigesis. There is a reason why love is not called wisdom,understanding,maturity,capacity to consummate and satisfy the sexual demands of a union. Love is not what buy food and groceries for the home. In short,love is not what buys the asoebi madam wants to wear for her friend Nkiru's wedding. Yes,love is foundational to a union but not its sustaining superstructure. I will recreate Cardinal Macinkus' saying that the Catholic Church is not ran on 'Hail Mary' alone to say marriage does not survive on love alone. |

DonTonero: The word Gentle and intelligence has different meaning based on the writers point of view.....and from the writers point of view no man i repeat no man would go for the intelligent woman except the man is 007 and is willing to die young. No man wants a disrespectful woman and intelligence cannot bring about humility or gentleness but being gentle and submissive can actually transform into intelligence because it takes a gentle woman to learn observe and adapt to changes because of her gentility even the gentle dumb will adjust when taught but all this changes lies with the man and how he wants to run his family and as for me an intelligent arrogant woman is HELL NO for me because they have ripped my life severally with their i too know only to regret when its late. God created women to be submissive(this encompasses gentility, intelligent and co) and not intelligent(this brings about arrogance,gender equality and divorce).You have said it well. ![]() |

nationwide24: If you are talking about wife material as your topic reads, none of the two qualities.makes anyone a good wife material although both are important attributes. God bless you plenty! |
Re: Wife Material: Intelligent Girl Or Gentle Girl by apolonius(m): 5:29pm On Jul 23, 2014 |
bukatyne: I am a Christian, yet I know that we are slaves of human nature in reality than christian ideals. For example,the Bible is clear on fornication,how many of us are virgins even as singles? What of adultery as lustful sight? By the way everyone on Nairaland are not Christians. Do we now quote St Paul's letters to define love and marriage to everyone?Marriage is dictated by love but sustained by more. Go figure dear. |

There's no lady that is outrightly dull, some may lack formal education but must have learnt one or two vital lessons from the school of life. As for my choice, I will rather go for the one that will complement me- the missing piece in my life's puzzle and not be juggling between intelligence and gentleness. |

kennygee: Most guys are intimidated by intelligent women, they want a gentle woman who will just say "how high" when they say jump without complaining. While an Intelligent woman will ask you why you want her to jump and offer a better way of doing it if there is one. If i have to pick one i'll pick intelligence but i'll prefer a blend of both. |

apolonius: The only thing that sustains marriage in a Christian POV is love What do you know as love if we are not to use the Christian definition? @Bolded, very true |
Re: Wife Material: Intelligent Girl Or Gentle Girl by apolonius(m): 5:55pm On Jul 23, 2014 |
bukatyne: Well,yes,if that concept of love has Christ at its core. |

bukatyne: I just skilled through some of your topics and thread contributions. And I am moved to do business with you from a christian perspective. I like Myles Munroe a lot and his magna opus on christian marriage,for me,remains the foremost classic text that answers this question after the Bible.I am talking of The Purpose and Power of Love and Marriage. I will urge you to buy and read this masterclass. I can buy one from here for you! ![]() You will see his analysis of the Garden of Eden marriage and the principles underlying it. By the way,this marriage was a marriage in Judaism as Christianity started with Christ millenia after this. Now,Myles articulated marriage as a fellowship of love with God whom both couple owe fidelity to and are faithful to each other because of this. His concept of love is tied to our purpose on earth which is fellowship with God. Yet he acknowledges that our NATURAL NEEDS and how they are met sustains this commitment to each other that flows from a commitment to God. For him,what keeps marriage is meeting our needs and staying fully faithful to marriage as a covenant of love entered not for the couple's sake but for God. NB:I am a catholic! Oya,bye! ![]() |
