I think that our hue is a bit exggerated among other groups.

My father spanked me once when I was seven. I learned two great lessons that day.

1) A Big, black man called my daddy should not be messed with and 2) If I am going to do bad things, hide them.

I see two problems with both  sides of the issue.

1. The OP is ignoring the natural versitility of African hair. Our hair by nature, can withstand and can adopt a lot of styles. Why shouldn't we have the option of taking advantage of that? Placing our hair in one way just to fit what others believe is  "black beauty"is  not only is silly, but it also keeps blacks in a box.

2. The opponents of Fayah's views have compared not relaxing or weaving to not bathing. That is asinine and a prime example of self-hatred. Our natural kinks and curls are not comparable to bad hygeine. Our hair is not ugly, but some of you posters mentality is.

I thought that SC was the reason why "ogbanjes" existed in Igbo culture. :/

@ Guy

Monique looks like my aunt.
Beyonce looks like my grandma in her younger days

I would either think that there is a Business convention in Dubai and they are travel to ____ on a layover or something fishy is going on.

If nothing happens in three hours, I'm cool.

Igbo men love their mums' because they are their mums'. Simple.

Eddie Murphy looks Ghanian.

Beyonce looks like an igbo/liberia crash with a dash of white.

This fool.

Oh hell no.

Chinelo- God is watching you.

Would Azikiwe be a good name for a boy?

Every time I hear something of that light, I want to take a glock and smack that person in the face. Is that wrong?

Both. That's not ok

Why don't you just tell him you feel you are being taken for granted? Add that if he doesn't step up, you're walking out.

You can also rub in the number of richer lad that try to get in your pants. However, this can get old.

Main point: You can't make someone love you. If they don't apperciate you, bounce.

Frankly, if I were in Okonkwo's shoes, I probably would have. Mainly out of fear of change.

Nigeria

1. Denying the fact that the Biafran War was a genocide
2. Accepting tribalism.
3. Always complaining about Igbos: why the fu!k are my people so special?
4. Having one area super developed while the rest is so-so.
5. Bad politics
6. Loud talking
7. Hypocrisy is almost everything

That is bleeped up. He is cute though. This is not funny. :/

Deep-
Because of the way our culture expects it. Titles, money, and status are really important in African culture.

Frankly, not incredible high if you want to marry him. Mainly because there's a twenty-three year old out there who has no kids and our culturally approved stamp of youth on her side.

For the sake of frankness, all African people have these traits.

1. Loud Talking: Whether it be on the phone or to a person right next to you, African people tend to speak a little louder.
2. Having heated arguements and then making up rather quickly
3. Pursuit of success: Even a Nigerian prostitute wants to be the top prostitute.
