How Romantic Were Our Forefathers? by chrisvicch: 7:47am On Aug 08, 2011
Having read many Nigeria novels/history books, one got the feeling that most of our forefathers value power, respect and self esteem more than anything.

Even in present day, you hardly see two couples work hand-in-hand with each other. In most Catholic/Anglican churches, men and women sit separately.

My question is, 'How did our forefathers play their romantic affairs or is it not part of our culture?

Foolish child. Do you really think your generation invented romanticism?

If our past teachers, mentors and professors call each of their student "foolish student", I wonder what the world will look like.  When someone ask a question, no matter how foolish it might look to you, the worst thing you should ever do is to insult the person. It doesn't show maturity.

The OP needs to wake up one of his ancestors and ask him this question or better still he can go ask them where they are right now
