Basically, Nigerian women have interesting qualities. Firstly, they know all the tricks in the world to make you do their bidding and then they could turn on their drama skills and use some fast lines on you too.
Growing up with many Nigerian women around could make you possess one or two of their traits and start to act like them yourself. There are certain qualities that Nigerian women exhibit; and you know for sure that you have been transformed into one when you start doing the following:
1. When you bargain in the market till you are insulted
Don’t bother paying, come and steal it
Have you tried going to the market with a Nigerian woman? It even becomes more dramatic if she is a mother as she would want to cut down her budget by all means to save money.
Nigerian women have the habit of bargaining in the market till market sellers insult them and ask them to take the wares without paying. When you start to do this, just know you are gradually transforming into a typical Nigerian woman.
2. When you can talk with your eyes
Most Nigerian women expect their children to understand body signs and languages. Your mother could hit you for failing to understand some sign she gave you with her eyes.
Overtime, these signs become a part of the children too. When you start to use your eyes to tell someone to pick up money from the floor, then you have succeeded in becoming a typical Nigerian woman.
3. When you cannot do little chores by yourself
Nigeria is blessed with a lot of hardworking women. Most of these women display this all the time and train their children to do likewise. However, they love being pesky for no reason.
You know you have become a typical Nigerian woman when you start to ask your children to get you an object you could get for yourself. And worse still, when you start to use your mouth to point out directions.
4. When you make retorts without thinking them through
Sorry for yourself!
Most Nigerian women seem to have ready-made answers. Try not to offend any of them or risk being compared to an object you despise.
In other cases, they show their frustration by making statements that showcase their efforts. When a child says he/she is hungry, they retort by saying ‘Come and eat me.’
5. When you cannot accept simple apology
To err is human and to forgive is divine, they say; offending a Nigerian could feel like hell. Nigerian women could be very difficult at times. You know you have been initiated when someone tells you sorry and you cannot help saying ‘Sorry for yourself.’
6. When you do not understand the term picnic anymore
All these for a picnic?
This is noticeable when you intend going for a picnic and you pack all the things you could think of. You know you are a typical Nigerian woman when you pack wrappers and many things that would be considered inappropriate. This attitude extends into you packing things needed for a year for a journey that would last a week.
7. When you become judgmental
Nigerian women see themselves as women who are chastised. They understand the word decency and try being moderate in everything they do. You know you have transitioned into a typical Nigerian woman when you cannot help opening your mouth when you see a girl walking half naked.

REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD KEEP ON SMILING


1) You’re More Attractive!

Do you want to be more attractive? Simple. Smile! Research has proven that we find others more attractive when they are wearing a smile. This one is a no-brainer, but for the sake of helping it land in your mind, think about someone who you know and think of first when they are down, sad, angry, frustrated, whatever it may be. How attractive are they? Now picture them simply with a smile on their face. What does this do to their attractiveness? If you took the time to do this exercise, I’m sure you would have easily found the smiling version much more attractive, and maybe this even made you feel a happy tingle inside yourself! This leads to my next point.

2) You Can CHANGE THE WORLD! A Smile is Contagious!
Have you ever been in a sour mood and then someone has come along with a huge smile, some laughter or in a really good mood? Perhaps a baby that just looked up at you and smiled? How did this make you feel? When the person you are talking to or the people that surround you are smiling, you won’t be able to help but smile!
A smile has special powers. You can calm fear, insecurity, hurt and anxiety not only in yourself, but in those that are experiencing those feelings. The next time someone is feeling sad, scared, nervous, whatever it may be, smile with them and see how this makes them feel!
Even 2Pac, the rap legend that passed away realised the benefits of smiling, in his lyrics to ‘Power of a Smile he raps:
The power of a gun can kill, and the power of fire can burn
The power of wind can chill, and the power of mind can learn
The power of anger, can raise inside until it tears you apart
But the power of a smile, especially yours, can heal a frozen heart
A smile is a contagious thing. Give to the world and the world will give back to you. Smile at the world and the world will smile back at you. You will brighten the days of those around and make a difference in their lives… simply by smiling!

3) Grow Old Sexily!
Wrinkles, wrinkles, wrinkles! Something that we all don’t want to have, however it is something that comes to us all leaving permanent marks of our emotional feelings throughout life. Smiling throughout life will NOT mean you won’t get wrinkles… I wish it did! It WILL however mean that you will have permanent marks of happiness and when you speak with those later in life, you will automatically be smiling!
You also use fewer muscles to smile than you do for frowning. Hopefully you’re smiling now as you read this, but if not, smile now! … Now that you have tried smiling, try and frown. Which one do you think is easier? I would definitely say smiling is the easier of the two, and therefore stretching your muscles and skin less throughout life to grow old sexily!

4) Simply Feel Good!
When you’re smiling, no doubt you’re having a much better time than when you’re not! Smiling simply makes you feel better!
Research has shown that smiling releases serotonin – a neurotransmitter that produces feelings of happiness and wellbeing. It’s like a circle of happiness. Smile and you feel happy, you feel happy and you smile! Even when you’re not feeling great, try smiling, genuinely, and see how you feel!

5) Build Better, Faster Relationships!
Smiling is such a key ingredient for establishing healthy and genuine friendships. When someone is smiling at you it indicates that they like you. When someone likes you what do you think of them? Yep, normally you’re thinking “wow, I like this person!” Smiling also offers encouragement to the person that you are talking to. Think about it, if someone is smiling at you while you are talking to them, you feel as though they are totally into what you are saying, encouraging you to keep going!
Smiling is crucial when it comes to first impressions. Smiling when you first meet someone will indicate to the other person that you are genuinely happy to see them and that you are a positive person. These impressions will be lasting on the other person so definitely not one to miss!

6) Enhance your Business!
Business deals can be made simply through smiling. One of the first things that sales people quickly learn is to smile. Who would you rather buy something from? The sales rep that looks bored, down, angry, frustrated or whatever it may be, or from the sales rep that is simply smiling and happy to see you? The messages that they convey in conversation will link back to how they are feeling. A smiling person would be much more enthusiastic for the product and instil positive feelings in the buyer.
Even telesales have got a hold on this. Now sales reps that are on the other side of the phone are encouraged to smile when they talk as the smile is conveyed in how the person is talking!
