Romance / Sad Truth About Virginity And How It Affects Marriage by mimi12: 1:36pm On Apr 29, 2015 |
Growing up, a woman’s virginity was such a big issue and a high value was placed on it. From time immemorial, a woman’s virginity has been seen as one of her most prized possessions and a certain respect was accorded to any woman who remained a virgin till marriage. But with modernization came a new school which places less value on a woman’s virginity. These days, virginity is even seen as a curse. Girls have no qualms losing it to the first man that comes their way. In the days of old, a maiden was expected to go into marriage as a virgin. If on the first night after the marriage her husband discovered she was not a virgin, her family gets instant condemnation. But civilization has substantially changed the way people perceive virginity. Today, there’s so much pressure on girls to gain s*xual experience before getting married as some men do not want to marry a woman with no s*xual experience. Most girls who have friends that are already sexually active feel left out when they are discussing their experiences, hence the urge to also experiment for themselves. Virgins are really very scarce these days as majority loose it even before the age of 20. Some girls even compete among themselves who would be the first to lose her virginity. But what is the big deal about virginity? Could it be the secret to a happy marriage? Let’s take a look at some of the answers given by some Naij.com readers. According to Ella Ada Obani, being a virgin does not guarantee a happy marriage but it earns trust. “You might be a virgin, but ur attitude and character is zero,” she adds. Owomoyela Abimbola Hanna said: “Yes it does, because the bible doesn’t support s*x before marriage. And whenever we do things according to the will of God, we live a happy and fulfilled life.” “It pays to be a virgin. If you are a virgin when you pray, God answers you speedily because you have kept yourself pure. Secondly, it is only a foolish man or a ‘man dog’ that does not have value for a virgin. Do you know what it cost a lady to preserve her indecency for just one man? Any husband that happens to be the first to drink from the cistern of his wife should count himself blessed. 2yrs ago, Imo state government was giving out cars to serving female corpers that got married as virgin. Let us teach our children to uphold their virginity. Your virginity is your pride,” Ebony Celestine said. Anekwe Nkechi believes that some girls are still virgin in 20’s but it has nothing to do with happiness in marriage. She explains that some virgins find it difficult to conceive, saying: “so virgin or no virgin doesn’t guarantee anything.” Justynoble Ben is of the opinion that being a virgin can guarantee a happy marriage to some extent because your husband will always respect and cherish you and with that he will hardly hurt you. “If I am given such privilege to be a virgin again, I would love to be,” he adds. Eno Jonah said: “It doesn’t guarantee a successful marriage but you’ll be happy about not having a dark past. Your husband will always respect you for that, if given another chance I’ll still be a virgin for him again.” “The answer to this question is Yes & No. Being a virgin guarantees a happy home as your hubby will cherish you like gold not only that, he won’t have the mind to cheat on you and you also earn respect trust from him. On the other hand, why I say it doesn’t guarantee a happy marriage is when you are married to the wrong person. I am a virgin and am very proud of myself, still love to be a virgin again in my next life,” Muslihat Obomeghie said. Another reader named Jane Odukwe said: “My question is the man coming to marry a virgin, is he a virgin? Typical no, so why is he looking for a virgin? Sounds as if making marriage work is made for women alone. What about the men, can’t they put effort to see that their marriage works too.” It is quite understandable that the pressure to remain a virgin till marriage has become more and more difficult in today’s world which celebrates waywardness, immorality, indecency and stupidity more than uprightness and decency. But there are still a number of virgins out there and you can be one of them. If you desire to, all you need to do is make up your mind and determine to keep your virginity till marriage. Though it is not very easy, it is possible. What's your own opinion about virginity... - See more at: http://www.maryannlive.com/2015/04/sad-truth-about-virginity-and-how-it.html?showComment=1430310424245#c2368327258821226101 1 Like 1 Share |
Celebrities / Kanye West Release His Own Bible Titled ‘BOOK OF YEEZUS’ On Easter Day by mimi12: 11:47am On Apr 07, 2015 |
This world is really coming to an end... Every day new drama...Kanye thought it wise according to him to release a bible as against the Bible we already have. He titled it 'the book of Yeezus'. The holy Bible has survived thousands of years let's see if his own will... Here is how the author, who is somehow cool with Kanye, describes it: Each generation champions a superstar, so consistently relevant that they come to accompany that generation through it’s evolution, being a part of and ultimately shaping its identity. Such past icons have been the likes of Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, John Lennon, or Michael Jackson. For this generation, Generation Y, Kanye West is not only its greatest spectacle, but in some senses, a spiritual figure. We are here to spread a doctrine. Well, a pseudo-doctrine. We ask you to use your pulpit for Good. A few months ago, my brothers and I embarked on a creative journey that began with a “What If?”: What if the Bible, the most singularly significant publication in the ancient canon of Western tradition, were updated to reflect our modern society? What would it look like? What we came up with was an interventionist art, coffee-table novelty, that will appeal to both Kanye fans everywhere and those made curious by this enormous cultural phenomenon. At it’s simplest, it is the book of Genesis, modified to feature “Kanye” or “Yeezus” in the place of God or Y---A. “In the beginning Kanye created the heaven and the earth… And Kanye said, Let there be light: and there was light.” In a sense, Kanye’s awesome and orchestrated spectacle is truly a religious experience. In a foreword, we explore our consumerist, quick-fix, and information-culture, and celebrate Kanye and the outsized significance he plays in our lives. All of this, bound in a black, hard-cover gold-leaf imprinted book. We present to you the Book of Yeezus http://www.maryannlive.com/2015/04/shocking-kanye-west-release-his-own.html#.VSO02R81i2c

TV/Movies / 2015 Movies You Should Look Out For In The Cinema; Watch Preview by mimi12: 10:09pm On Apr 06, 2015 |
1. Terminator: Genisys Arnold Schwarzenegger, back in his leather title cyborg. The story accounts for Schwarzenegger’s advancing years (the Terminator’s flesh ages, but the metal combat chassis beneath remains gleaming), though the rest of the plot, and how it fits into the Terminator canon, is a closely-guarded secret. 2. Mortdecai Feat Johnny Depp ... He takes the title role of Charles Mortdecai, an art dealer on the hunt for a stolen painting, that may or may not have links to Nazi gold. Based on the novel of Kyril Bonfigilioli. It an action comedy - as the trailer demonstrates. 3. The Man From U.N.C.L.E With Mission: Impossible 5 also set for release in 2015, the multiplexes will not be short of spy capers (there's also Kingsman: The Secret Service, which only doesn't make the cut this time because we included it in our 2014 preview, and we're only allowed to pick 25 movies!). We're intrigued by The Man From U.N.C.L.E., though. Not only does it have more full stops than its competitors, it also gives us a chance to see Henry Cavill flexing his acting muscles without a superhero suit on. 4. Star Wars: Episode VII The big question is whether its writers can cook up an interesting story to follow the events of the Battle of Endor, especially as Disney has every intention of Episode VII marking a big, lucrative new beginning for a multi-movie franchise. The new Star Wars has a lot to live up to, but we’re looking forward to seeing where Abrams goes with George Lucas’ fantastical universe. 5. Jurassic World After making a bold debut with the wonderful romantic comedy Safety Not Guaranteed, director Colin Trevorrow’s making an equally bold leap into blockbuster filmmaking with this belated third sequel to Jurassic Park. 6 Tomorrowland It's helmed, for a start, by one of our favourite directors, Brad Bird (who hopefully can get us an Iron Giant Blu-ray in 2015 too), and features George Clooney, with a script from Bird and Damon Lindelof. It looks, in the surface, like a big, ambitious, intelligent piece of science fiction for a blockbuster family audience. If Bird can pull that off, then we might just buy him a few biscuits. http://www.maryannlive.com/2015/04/videos-starring-johnny-depp-arnold.html#.VSL0PR81i2c

Politics / Marijuana Cookbook To Be Released; How To Prepare Marijuana Biscuit, Soup .... by mimi12: 2:19pm On Apr 04, 2015 |
Wonders shall never end, what are this people promoting...A new cookbook that treats weed as a cooking herb is in the works and will include recipes like marijuana-infused black pepper biscuits and butternut squash soup. With four US states legalizing the recreational use of cannabis, and medical marijuana legal in 23 states and the District of Columbia, the authors of “Herb: Mastering the Art of Cooking with Cannabis” are hoping that the culinary world will see the plant as a legitimate herb, flavor enhancer and, perhaps more interestingly, a mood booster. Cookbook author Michael Ruhlman is also set to write a collaborative chapter that will teach users and at-home chefs how to maximize the plant’s pleasure properties with the right food and weed ratios, saysThe New York Times. Recipes will go beyond brownies and include dishes like marijuana-infused sausage marinara sauce, biscuits, soup, steak with cannabis-flavored butter, and Mexican hot chocolate. http://www.maryannlive.com/2015/04/marijuana-cookbook-to-be-released-how.html#.VR_kQ_nF-oM Launched as a crowd-funding project, publishing company Inkshares raised more than $22,000 USD from 841 supporters. The cookbook is set to be published this summer. |
