hmmm

mtisTheQubit:

That's good to hear....my habitation is good as well

theTranscriber:
you just posted links for posting sake

both the links support my view

they say *homosexuality is not alien to Africans*

but I say *"yes they are not alien,but they were never seen as normal"*

the Igbo female husband's stuff was just a way to protect women as far as I read
they did not practice homosexuality

Where did they say it was a taboo as you claim? It may not have been normal in the sense that most people weren't like them but they were there and weren't considered weird or out of place and it definitely wasn't taboo

And what do you mean by it was to survive? Survive what and who?

theTranscriber:

almost everybody's grandfather's practices polygamy that's not an achievement

my grandfather was one of the first christain priests in Abeokuta yet he married about 3 wives

we are awaiting the weddings of homosexuals in African society

When did I say it was an achievement? I'm saying that I have nothing against polygamy as you wrongly claimed you keep on trying to make it seem like i'm pandering towards western views when infact my views are from an African pov

it's the west that pushes the ideas you're trying to propagate here

they do t need to say that
the fact that they didn't say it was accepted is enough for me


re read my post
there's no "survive" in it

Come and read this one then it was there and it was accepted in some situations even celebrated if this isn't enough evidence for you then it's clear you're not open minded enough for this conversation you need to learn to decolonize your mind and be ready for new conversations

it's obvious that that article is pro LGBTQ

bring me something that is neutral
I have no way to verify the stupid claims in that aljazzliar article
I'll read everything in the article when Qatar legalises LGBTQ

let America go and shout LGBTQ to Saudi Arabia

nonsense



I'm awaiting your LGBTQ weddings

Go and search the evidence they provided not just automatically disregard it notice how they mentioned the King in Uganda I mentioned and the Igbo female marriages that I also mentioned is that not an example of an LGBTQ wedding for you?

vankelvin:


Huh!
the little Ive seen from you today! abeg, take your link and chew, make sure to drink water on top.

I don't have time for rubbish

Okay if you don't have time then stop quoting me and go mind your own business unless you actually want to have a proper debate?

More evidence come and read this thread you people will not sleep till you accept the fact of the matter it wasn't a taboo and it wasn't frowned upon it was there and was freely practiced

I really don't know what is happening but it seems like you guys are having internet issues

Yes
You have reminded me.

@Rvp said so many times that he lives in UK
Or did he not say that?

So how come @Rvp is affected by Kenya's internet wahala?? .... He who that lies knows where he is hiding

Those that have been lying about their status/ personality on nairaland, this is how God will expose you one by one

Your link catapulted itself into the abyss.

One part of it states Orunmila was born when two females had sex and that's why he had no bones in his body. Now, in the real sense lesbians don't engage in lesbian sex to produce babies because it's completely impossible. And how can a man without bones survive?

To say homosexuality existed in Africa long ago is the truth. In fact that practice is as old as the world itself. It has always been there, even in the animal world.

But the heart of the matter is that it is a taboo in many African societies, including the Yoruba one. It is there but unacceptable to the society. I guess that's what the transcriber is trying to say.

Don't tell me you ever for one second believe that little Indian lives in Europe.
He lives right there in Nakuru or some other Kenyan town. Now he can't come online. All the way from Switzerland where he lives.

jl115:

A shithole is a shithole.

Even if he is dying, he will still find a way to log in to nairaland. He is definitely affected by the internet issues in Kenya. Guy must be boiling by now.

Just30:
anyway, this is not what you and I were talking about

I love the way you quietly trying to make your country appear good.
I almost thought you weren't from GH again...your police is as bad as every other police on the continent.
Rape cases are frowned at in Nigeria,
And the police deal harshly with anyone caught or even accused of rape.
Only exception, is when the rapist is unknown or at large.

Getting irritated by these peeps really.

you got the point
"Small Ghana" na norms na.
Or do you oppose?


If you want to argue with a Nigerian,
Bring high risk security issues like terrorism and banditry,
Maybe your normal diss line,
'Electricity'
I'd not argue that,
But you see that rape and petty crimes, don't let us go there... Ghana is terrible in that aspect of crime.
Abi na yahoo you wan start from?
GH na like my back yard pa!!

So rape and the fact that culprits ain't being punished is not an issue er?

It is the yoruba religion a lot of things don't make sense and when did it say that they intended to have a baby? It just happened and it isn't a taboo in most African societies that's false and it certainly isn't a taboo in the Yoruba society neither is it taboo in the igbo, bini and even the nupe societies they were very close to nature so why and how exactly would they demonize a naturally occuring preference?

It doesn't add up.
Two females can not have a baby. Drop it, Sir.
And to say Orunmila was born without bones in his body is another laughable thing. But then most things in religion don't make sense anyway.. And not just Yoruba religion.

But stop running with such claims as if they were facts.

And the practise is taboo. If it wasn't taboo, it would be accepted and seen as normal. There is no evidence that it was widespread like it is in the western world today. Definitely they didn't see it as naturally occuring. The same way some African societies didn't see twins as naturally- occuring.

That's why gays mostly remained in the closet long ago in African societies and are still mostly there.

Thanks for asking. I will be Nairobi tomorrow - flying tomorrow morning.

what airline will you be flying with?

So this account too is for you ?

Would that satisfy you?

you see that I've caught you


Please don't post someone else's COVID test gotten from the internet here again.

And when you want to lie, please learn how long a PCR test is valid for and airline policies concerning PCR tests.

KLM does not accept PCR tests that are 48hours and above old for boarding.

It is an African religion a lot of things don't make sense same way there's stories of trees giving birth to people in sacred forests

And it wasn't taboo it was only taboo after the coming of western culture and religion this isn't an argument and African societies thought twins were evil and cursed not that they weren't natural

I've provided four sources showing that homosexuality wasn't taboo and the stigma against it is foreign multiple times and you haven't provided a single one so why should I believe your point of view if you can't even provide evidence for it
