UKAj: She is very heathy and negative. Same as my son. We both understand her risk, but we took appropriate measure. Discordant heterosexual couples who are free of other STDs are at very minimal risk when they try for a kid when the egg is ready to fertilize. The criteria is that the positive partner is undetectable and have good cd4 count. At other times, however, they should practice safe sex with the correct use of condom. Nice one, glad it worked out well for both of you. However, you failed to mention how you sorted the church issue…might help couples in a similar situation. |

For me, it is ‘Nothing at all’, a track by Santana, featuring Musiq Soulchild. There was this chick I was pursuing back in the day, who refused all my moves. I played the song to her one night as I felt it captured the frustrations I felt at the time. Turned out to be a lovely night indeed, one of my fondest memories ever and I get to relive the experience each time I hear it – it was my first. 2 Likes 1 Share |

@ Cuddlemi thanks for the wishes; the award for the laziest Nairalander ever goes to… Some quotes, not sure if they have already been mentioned: The only fence against the world is a thorough knowledge of it. – John Locke. Be the change that you wish to see in the world. – Mahatma Gandhi. |

To all condom adherents, condom use does not eliminate the risk, they use phrases like ‘highly effective with consistent and correct use’, ‘reduce the risk’, ‘high degree of protection’. What they forget is that the ‘heat of the moment’ can turn the smartest person on the planet to a blockhead using them inconsistently or incorrectly. The best way is still Abstinence, followed by monogamy, then finally condoms. mobuch: This is a disaster, Lol, okay, I am 50% Benue and I have commented. Now, what are you going to do, shoot me? |

madanne4real: http://amazingmemories.park-resorts.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/finchingfield-village-essex-e1323785758440.jpg Nice one, I also live in a village in Essex, it won ‘village of the year award’ a few years ago but has not been able to win one since then, so it is living on past glory. @ Topic, it is typical, Nigerians and the culture of waste, instead of investment. The average Westerner starts with a one-bedroom apartment, moving up to a three or five-bedroom property as he partners up and has kids. When these kids move out/he gets older, he gradually downgrades, until he ends up in a retirement home. As usual, you can trust with a Nigerian, it is all about excesses and quantity, instead of having a quality life. Kanye’s rap take “white people get money don’t spend it, or maybe they get money buy a business, I rather buy 80 gold chains and go ignorant, I know Spike Lee gone kill me but let me finish. Blame it on the pigment …" 1 Like |

The UK is becoming an increasingly hostile country to foreigners, though I cannot say I blame them. However, they should be careful they do not dissuade immigrants to such a point that it affects their economy. On the plus side, if they frustrate the residing migrant family members and they all go home, they will use the expertise/experience gained to develop their respective countries. Maybe that is what is required to move a country like Nigeria forward. 2 Likes |

JEMMYP: This really gets me wondering, my colleagues were arguing on the issue one day and the guys and amlost of them were on the opinion that when they are ready to settle down they will just select from their two or three girl friends, the one that they feels is well behaved that suits what they want in a woman and marry her. that love sets in afterwards. So i am asking, Do men really marry these day for love? Lol, love is a strong word. I think Men marry for different reasons i.e. procreation, societal concerns and to do ‘it’ legally as told in the good book. I know I cannot get married to someone I do not have feelings for. If you call those 'feelings' love and it suits you, then fine by me, but personally, that word has long lost meaning to me. |

You have said it all; it could also be attributed to ‘keeping up with the joneses’ in fashion and the likes, not being content with what they have, etc. |

Nice to see Nigerians making positive news headlines, particularly as it is in London. Children from balanced backgrounds, (with a father and mother figure) tend to perform well. 1 Like |

Yes, it will portray her as the African queen she should rightly be. In addition, as long as the shape of her head is perfect, not the type that will have gallops and potholes. ![]() |

GARRI (x7): Well said, still, he is, at his very best, human. No matter how impartial a person claims to be, you still see character flaws. Moreover, since he was involved in it, it is possible he honestly could not see the wood for the trees . @ Topic, interesting article, one of the reasons one should look at both sides of a story before drawing a conclusion. |

ifyalways: She wrote so much about the societal class segregation and so little on how to curb it. The answer, I believe lies in the passage, where she spoke about the constitution and her personal experience as a kid. The Nigerian government needs to go back to the drawing board, re-examine the constitution and enforce equality at all levels. They should lead by example i.e. trade the ‘oga’ mentality for the originally intended ‘public servant’ image instead of their bullying attitude. If you treat people like animals, they are more likely to behave like them eventually. In addition, teaching kids simple courtesy regardless of the intended recipient’s creed or social status is important, as they represent the future of society. If majority of the kids are brought up to feel everyone is equal, it should ‘in theory’ reduce it. The British educational system has a stage in the child’s education where they start telling them to report to authorities if their parents hit them. I suggest Nigeria borrow this concept but use it in a better way by judging the child’s home training by character and feeding these results back. The Government can then use the carrot or stick approach to correct this with the parents. |

Ivynwa: Ada Nwaubani made it sound like her parents didn't teach her and her siblings to respect and appreciate everybody whether maid or not. She is writing about a good topic but spoilt it by bringing in her family upbringing and relationship with maids therein. She said that it is in recent years that she learnt to accord due respect to maids (the "thank you" and "smiles" ), like was she treating them less than that before? Some of us lived with maids while growing up and still appreciated and respected them. One of the househelps I grew up with was getting same stuffs, dresses etc parents bought for me, it was as if we were twins. We were taught to treat them like our own siblings too so it isn't every family that looked down on maids as nobodies. I don’t see anything wrong with what she said. She showed her upbringing a part of the problem, which I feel is a necessary step towards a lasting solution. She could have adopted a ‘holier than thou’ attitude, but she did not, this I find impressive. Truth be told, we all know what the problem is, but seem to shy away from working towards a lasting solution, as it is embedded in our orientation right from childhood. 1 Like |

This is definitely a step forward, but why not manufacture some of the components in Nigeria too? Is that asking for too much? |

binger: PURPOSE OF THREAD; Solely to eradicate the ideology that most things about ones ex is bad and detestable. She gave up her most prized possession, never used before, even though I tried hard to resist… Damn, she set my loins on fire, pity I ended up being a jerk… |

@ Topic, I guess it is about studying your victim, not about Alpha Male/Nice Guy stereotypes that will vary from female to female. The perfect victim allows for the perfect chase – Robert Greene in Art of Seduction. As we have different personality types, a good hunter knows his prey and knows how to apply strategies unique to her kind. |

bilms: Role models are very important. They help us become the person we want to be and inspire us to make a difference. Never really had just one role model, had many along the way, each with their own unique attribute. |

*Kails*: Lol, went to their ‘RNB Superstars 2’ concert just before valentine’s day, one of the sisters asked “how many of you are in love”, many shouts, “how many of you are married”, fewer shouts, “how many of you are in ‘we don’t know what the f... this is”, plenty of laughter. Found that really funny as that was the situation that suited me and my female counterpart, thought i’d share. It was a nice concert, even though the sound could have been better, also featured Ginuwine, Dru Hill and Silk. Anyway, listening to Eminem featuring Nate Dogg – Till I collapse. |

Kobojunkie: This is where we are at a variance; I wasn’t referring to familial relationships, but to ‘the others’ you mentioned, specifically business and services. I do not believe people should be terrorised/suppressed, talk less of within a family; I wanted to point out that the entire system is wrong if you have to do so to get some basic services – as this is what seems to work. Else they don’t respond or they term you ‘mugu’, ‘mumu’, ‘jjc’, or ‘ajebutter’. I do not live there, so you can imagine how it felt experiencing all that, worse still, having to behave ‘in Rome as the Romans do’. |

abombom: I hope the OP is not at the other end of the scale, the westernised type that will say ‘you are silly mommy’ or ‘shut up mommy’ all in the name of being ‘free’. |
