Family / Re: Man Ordered To Pay His Ex Girlfriend $50,000 Per Month In Canada by Jullima(f): 5:39pm On Sep 12, 2020 |
Elxandre:I didn’t have to know his exact net-worth to know his income and his net-worth is probably more than 6x that, I didn’t need to know that to make my comment. A rational person knows the money awarded is from the net-worth acquired during the duration of the relationship. A judge will never award money the man/woman does not have or what will leave him/her in penury. The payout is based on a formula, if I am to pay my ex 100k, the court knows my income and net-worth is x times 100K. I also have a choice, if I don’t want to be on the hook for a broke dude, I just don’t date one, period. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Elxandre:I am sure the judge must have calculated his networth and future earnings. She gets a payout of ~$6.4milion dollars. For a man that’s worth hundreds of millions of dollars and a family net-worth of over a billion dollars, to him that payout is equivalent to 64 dollars. That’s also probably a tax write off for him. He will be fine, he’s still worth hundreds of millions, in 10 years before her payout is complete he would have made 3x that in income. Meanwhile here, the price of bread has increased 6 Likes 1 Share |

Sarita01:So a partner adds nothing of value to your life, yet you let them in your life for 14 years, make that make sense? The judge didn’t believe the woman was useless and lazy to him, she must have had some sort of value to him to keep her for that long. That ‘value’ is the compensation, that’s how their law works. 20 Likes |

ENG0701:Ok, now we agree, the reason I jumped on this thread is the “law favours women” phrase, it’s not like the communal property law is only assigned arbitrary to men. I don’t care about Western laws they don’t govern me, from what I am able to glean if a partner has been with you for an x number of years then they believe he/she is good enough for you to achieve what you did, I guess maybe they look the human as a whole. If you’re happy in your relationship then you perform better and whoever is in your life during this period deserves some sort of compensation for what you gained during the relationship. Remember these are laws passed by them and most abide to it. Also there’s always a choice, you can always choose to go through this life alone. 34 Likes 4 Shares |

ENG0701:I was referring to the general reason why courts award settlements to spouses. In this case while no kids, he was with her for 14 years that’s a long time to be with someone that adds no value to your life, some marriages don’t even last that long. The bolded, duh because men are like 4x richer than women. The law will still apply to a rich woman that kept a man as a companion for 14 years. The law will not say “because you’re a woman then I favour you don’t pay this man” 52 Likes 8 Shares |

MrBrownJay1:Watch as they avoid your unbiased post as a plague and continue to delude themselves “western laws favour women” the same laws some men use to get money from their richer female companion. No need to cry you already know what the laws are, you cannot use a woman to raise your children, use as a companion get her used to a certain lifestyle and discard her like a piece of rubbish when you’re done. If you think no woman deserves your hard earned sweat then don’t bring them into your life and lavish them with gifts, simple. It’s a choice, you can go your own way. 83 Likes 8 Shares |
Family / Re: Disagreement With My Husband About Babies Names by Jullima(f): 6:08pm On Sep 05, 2020 |
OP it’s unfortunate your husband went back on his word, it’s never cool to know you can’t trust or rely on your husband’s word. Well, now that you’re here, you can do what we did when we were also at a stalemate for name choices, both of us were unwilling to budge. So we decided to write both our first and second choices in 4 scraps of paper, and we asked a third party to pick one from the four. If that will not work for you, you can choose Igbo names that are easy to pronounce or used by other cultures e.g “Ugo” is also an Italian name or Adaora can be spelt Adora. Mma, Ada etc are not bad names. Another option, you can go ahead with your husband’s choice doesn’t mean she has to go by her first name. Some people are called or known by their middle name e.g Meghan Markle’s officially is Rachel Meghan Markle. A first name dispute is not the marital hill you want to die on. 5 Likes |
Family / Re: Financial Problem In Marriage -- Please Advice by Jullima(f): 3:47pm On Sep 03, 2020 |
OP, don’t let people guilt you into a financial arrangement you can’t commit to. A rent is a recurring expense. Don’t touch your savings, if he wants to help his mother (which is very admirable) then he should take an extra job to pay the rent or reduce spending. Taking on a rent is a huge commitment, you guys don’t want to start what you can’t finish, so you have to plan very well for it. He’s lucky he has a way to make an extra income, he should take it. It’s unfortunate his siblings are apathetic to their own mother. 13 Likes |
Sports / Re: Brazil Women Players To Get Equal Pay As Men by Jullima(f): 3:34pm On Sep 03, 2020 |
MrOjay1:That hasn’t changed the men will still earn more than the women, the private clubs pay them more and FIFA pays men teams more than women’s Brazil’s women’s national players will get the same as male players for representing their country. The article is about a football federation deciding women’s representation of their country in an international event isn’t inferior to the men’s. Calm down, Brazilian men still earn more. 5 Likes |

Family / Re: Let Me Tell You A Story....a True Life Story by Jullima(f): 5:25pm On Aug 24, 2020 |
If you are a woman and you want to have a career and a family, make sure you’re on the path to said career where you can juggle both once you get married. So, write and pass all your exams, get your foot in the door etc. set it up in such a way, your career seamlessly blends in with your married life, the only ‘break’ you should take is a maternity leave. I have seen cases where a man will promise his fiancée he will support her in achieving her career while they’re married and switch up on her once they say “I do”. Those that will tell you it’s piece of cake to pick up your career whenever you like, that’s misleading and a falsehood. The economy and job market is telling us a different story. Single and unencumbered men and women can’t even get jobs, the Nigerian labour market is very ageist and very reliant on experience that you can’t afford to take too long a break. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

Sixfeetbelle please ignore these people. They don’t think much of women, they don’t think they are human beings with feelings, to them, only men feel betrayal. That is why they are bold in their double standards. Imagine one up there saying because he takes care of his responsibilities so cheating and betraying your vows is ok. The wife will suddenly be ok because the man will take care of his child, she wouldn’t be hurt that he was shagging another woman while he was supposed to be faithful to her. These same men will guilt the woman with “divorce is not an option” to accept his outside child. Betrayal from infidelity is only reserved for men. 6 Likes |
Family / Re: His Wife Denies Him Sex Even When He Pays All The Bills by Jullima(f): 10:04am On Aug 01, 2020 |
yettymuse: The saddest irony is the romance, care and attention they refuse to give the wife is what they will shower the side chick for her to give them sex. However, they think the wife does not deserve romance, care and attention because they have paid bride price so they expect sex on demand from the wife. 73 Likes 5 Shares |

Sixfeetbelle:Lol don’t mind them! And to think they’re this angry over a skit. Men can’t take it when a woman beats them at their cheating game. How many men bring in their outside children for their wives to raise and claim he/she is a distant cousin? When the wife knows she’s bullied or guilted into accepting her husband’s love child. There’s a new thread of a wife and side chick giving birth same day, same hospital. Watch how they will disappear from that thread. The irony is while they’re ranting “I will do DNA” another man is taking care of their own child somewhere else. 3 Likes 1 Share |

The thing about “do it for peace to reign” scenarios is, it never ends. It’s not going to stop at your SM passwords. Tomorrow, it’s going to be something else. We know there are many judgy and unstable people on the internet, so many people now understand if people choose not to post their family on SM. I think you should stand firm on your decision and not waiver. 8 Likes |

Family / Re: What Led To The Greatest Flogging You Received As A Kid?? by Jullima(f): 3:30pm On Jul 31, 2020 |
Elder0001:Me too! My parents rarely ever beat me, when I tell people they think I’m lying. All I needed to hear was “young lady, I am disappointed in you” I was so sacred of disappointing my dad, it set me straight better than any beating would have done. I think most parents that beat give in to the instant frustration of an errant child. As a human being it’s hard to resist lol. I learnt from my upbringing that teaching a child what they did wrong, asking them why they did it, teaching them the consequences of doing it and making them understand why they have to be disciplined for it is more effective. If not, if a child associates beating with a bad deed, then they only avoid doing bad deeds so not to get beaten. ‘Consequences’ can be not going for a birthday party, not watching tv, seizing a favourite toy, writing lines, etc. There are many things children love that if taken from them it’s much more effective than beating. 3 Likes |

Hathor5:Yes, he sounds normal to people that raise or are around children his age. They’ve seen it enough times not to judge another mother until they have a full context. They recognize that tears when they wake him up to bath, to eat his food, wear his clothes, you know when you tell him to do things he doesn’t want to do.

Hathor5:lol get over yourself, I absolutely don’t care if you agree with me, not my objective. Maybe because you are too passionate, you’re getting tunnel vision and you’ve become blind and can’t tell when a child is being abused. You begin to hear and see what you want to see to fit into your passionate agenda. It happens, you become too passionate in something you start to lose objectivity and rationality goes out the window. 11 Likes |

Hathor5:Okayy There’s still NOTHING in the video that suggests the boy is an abused child. Personally, I also don’t believe in spanking, I am more of a ‘see the errors of your ways, actions have consequences’ kind of mother. So your posts are right in the right context but not this one. There’s absolutely nothing that proves he’s been abused, even the Western country you quoted, spanking is LEGAL as long as it doesn’t cause injury to the child. There’s spanking and there’s spanking. So do you know the kind of spanking this boy was going to receive?? I hate it when people judge others without context. “He’s terrified” lol really?? Have you been around children?? You’ve not seen children act like they’ve been shot just because you tell them to eat their food? That’s why I don’t post family on social media, so many judgy people on the internet. 7 Likes |

Hathor5:NO you can’t! And that’s mighty bold and presumptuous of you to judge the parenting skills of a mother you don’t know because of a few minute video you watched. Mothers make videos of their children all the time and send to family. From what someone said upthread, she didn’t post it herself. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Hathor5:Really? Yes child abuse is a staple in our culture. However to reach this conclusion when the video does not show any evidence of abuse is very unfair to the mother. You do know children use tears and tantrums to manipulate outcomes to their advantage? We don’t beat our son but he screams blue murder when he’s told to go to his room or stop watching TV. If you know anything about abused children then you will know an abused child will never think he has an option to negotiate his discipline. I don’t know why strangers on the internet without being privy to a household always feel very comfortable judging the parenting skill of a mother they don’t know. 9 Likes |
Crime / Re: Rape: Izu Madubueze Reads Suicide Note Before Killing Self Over False Accusation by Jullima(f): 12:47pm On Jul 28, 2020 |
sanpipita:Thank you! In normal countries, people lose their jobs, politicians are voted out. You can’t harass someone and just tell them to get over it. It has no place in society. Just because women have learnt to keep quiet and bear it so as not to cause trouble or create attention for themselves does not make it okay. Well I am not surprised most NL men are having a difficult time processing non-physical sexual harassment, most think 99% of penetrative rape is false. This is also the most empathy I have seen on NL for a suicide victim. 2 Likes |

Ibime:Yeah, this isn’t about you and whether you consider non physical sexual harassment a thing. We all agree his death was sad and unfortunate. Non- physical sexual harassment IS sexual harassment and you don’t get to decide or tell victims to just brush it off because you can. We can condemn cyber bully and also condemn sexual harassment, we can do both. We don’t have to minimise and dismiss sexual harassment victims because we feel sorry for the life of a young man that was unnecessarily cut short, especially after he acknowledged and apologised for sending a lewd poem. 1 Like |
