the day you realize that marriage only benefit that vagina entity, that's the very day you know peace undecided

I date you, I take you out
I buy you things
I visited your parents with gift
I arrange for traditional marriage
I arrange for white marriage
The only thing that vagina entity do is open her community hoe and give birth to probably a bastard undecided

I feed the the child
I pay school fee
I take care of hospital bill
I buy the female baboons clothes and other expenses
I pay house rent.
The only thing that vagina entity do is to nag the hell out of the man, watch those foolish Nigeria movie, paint her useless face and open her hoe for more children to come into this world, and if so lucky the child belong to you undecided


Ask any marriage men and you will see that there are full of regret and even considering divorce if not for the child they have to those vagina entity. undecided

Marriage favour not we men and there is no any benefit in marrying undecided

Even the bible said is better to be single than to marry undecided

How do we do in old age?

1. They don't have money to marry.

2. Most women have raised their standards, so some men are not finding it easy getting the kind of women they want.

3. Too many women have taken the "highway" so wife material aren't in abundance anymore.

4. Some people have become "woke" and uninterested in marriage since they can simply cohabit, or have baby mamas.

5. Finally, some men are genuinely scared. With all the bad marriage stories louder than the good ones.

This is interesting. As the business woman that I am, I forsee a rise in old people's homes to cater for surge of old men without families to care for them.
Unfortunately, this won't come cheap.

Food vendors will also have, low salt, oil less menu for the older bachelor population.

Geriatric nursing and home care will boom.




I must cash out from this trend!!!

yes cash out oooo - mortuary owners and caskets producers have cashed out on the untimely death of many men due to being nagged to death by their knife- oooopps, sorry, wife- nwoke, have you asked yourself WHY WOMEN OUTLIVE MEN? Simple

Men are getting harassed blackmailed and manipulated by women until they are driven to their early graves and marriage is the effective medium to dish out the aforementioned

Marriage is a matter of choice, with different faces facing different people. Many years ago in Ibadan city, a popular city shaker called King of voice
died in his house for over 3 days without detection. Why? he belonged to everybody but owned no one nor by anyone.

Because men have realised that;
1. They have alot of time from 20 to 50 years they can still marry
2. Marriage is a waste of time money and effort
3. Getting married early is a waste of your youthful age
4. The man is Mostly on the giving end in Marriage
5. Marriage favours women more than it favours men
6. They want to break the loop

You deserve the next presidency.

For those naija men outside naija, it’s because they think too much and are afraid to love a woman who would use the system to defraud them legally.

For those in naija, it’s for a number of reasons. Naija babes are not loyal. They always lookout for themselves first. Once your usefulness in their lives end, they end the relationship/marriage. Men are trying to avoid that, so they remain single and opt for babymama arrangement if they need kids.

It may also be because the men intend to relocate abroad and they would rather not take their nemesis along. So they resign to a single life.

Thirdly, it could be that some men want to solve certain economic/financial issues before adding the responsibilities of a wife to the load they carry.

Everything here points to the prevalent fact that young Nigerian women do not carry their own weight. Once you ask them out, it’s like they open a ledger for you as a debtor. They use you for your resources then demand to be treated like an equal. Lol. Men are tired of slaving for women.

You see single and even married women online openly asking for trips, perks, gifts and money. It’s almost like every man owes them. You never know who is going to use his money to trigger your wife’s release clause. grin Even the faithful ones think they must be rewarded with marriage for standing by you while you were struggling. Why would any sane man want to marry such a woman who thinks she’s entitled to his possessions just because she was present while he was struggling without even contributing tangibly to his progress?

So unbalanced.

If marriage was such a sweet deal, more men would embrace it. Many of those who are married were pressured by their parents to get married or were young and blinded by initial infatuation which later faded away and revealed the true nature of their wives.

Women have turned this marriage thing into a punishment for men. It shouldn’t be so.

Men are the ones truly settling down. They settle and put up with broke, unworthy women who offer nothing but drama and the possibility of paternity fraud and strife in a family that was fine until the man brought in a wife.

Marriage should be sweet but naija women fail to realise that both partners MUST contribute to a happy marriage, not just the man.

Well, the discussion isn't about whether they make money from it.

It was cited as one of the reasons why some men aren't getting married early enough.

They're cahooting with those babes, and now believe all women are just like that.

Marriage in Nigeria is becoming very expensive. And looking at the high unemployment rate and the rate at which available jobs pay very low, how many guys can afford the cost of marriage.

My brother is planning on marrying an imo lady, just to collect list is over 50k. The day we went for introduction, the kinsmen where saying that the drink we brought wasn't enough... Just imagine.

The items on the list cost more than 800k, yes it's true that the list is negotiable, but mere looking at it alone is scary.

I for one, even if I happen to get a queen Elizabeth and Rihanna kind of beauty merged in an imo girl, nothing is taking me close to that state for marriage... Except if I have assurance that there own side aren't too demanding.

All these are what the elders are supposed to clearly scrap.

pls stop misleading people, there are alot of places in imo state that ther marriage list is very cheap,

Nonsense!

Marriage can never be "sweet" for a man!

Well, I mean the oyinbo polygamous marriage that modern women want.

Here are facts:

1. No matter what you do, a woman would never be happy and satisfied sustainably; they never know what they want.

2. A man has a natural need to spread his seed; not be with one woman till he dies.

Take those facts into your life till you die!
You mean even if you give a woman your soul and everything she will still not be satisfied?

It's the best to remain single , in as much as they are not financially stable. it's better they remain single than to have a broken marriage.

Marriage isn’t overrated. The problem is people! People are losing their senses, their morale, desires for pleasures and thirst from multiple partners, ways of lifestyle from peers around them. I got married at 27, my wife 22. Today we have two kids. 6 and 2 years old. Do the maths. People no longer understand the importance of self discipline and preservation.

we live in a fast paced world, having fast paced lives, and as much as there is nothing wrong with being married, there is also ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with wanting to sample around and not settle for just one woman. thats in our African culture/DNA... in Africa, it is perfectly ok to have multiple women thus, why would a man refuse such "privilege"?

the fact that you believe that having a desire for multiple women is wrong/immoral bla bla, shows us how you have been brainwashed by the media and/or the western lifestyle. having multiple partners is an AFRICAN WAY OF LIFE, going back centuries. dont let these white people tell you otherwise. now, i understand that not all Africans may desire multiple partners (and thats ok), but dont make it seem like a man is automatically deranged/evil when he desires multiple partners. the catch is to be fully honest with each of these women and let them know exactly what type of (polygamous) man you are.

sparko1:
So tell me, why do I a 32 year old man, should think of getting married?

i can find a 1000 reasons why a 32yr old man should get married, and equally find a 1000 reason why he shouldnt... the catch here is to do whats best FOR YOU, and as we can see by the above poster i quoted, he is fully content with being married at 32.

Have you ever thought about this, until a man is finicially capable of living an enjoyeable life, nobody talks about marriage, the moment, he's living a two bedroom flat, has a car, get to send money home, everyone wants him to get married, why? its seems the idea is this, a man is not supposed to he happy for too long, the moment he is happy for 1,2 years, they want him to add some suffering to his life, because it makes no sense for a man to be happy or maybe the society views the idea of a man being always happy as an issue that can propel him into greater things, and they just don't want that, they want him to come down to the level of everyday complain. Just my observation.

you made some valid points but i certainly believe that the pleasure of life is in the JOURNEY, and certainly not in the destination. many people are miserable in their lives because they grew up believing that money was gonna solve all their problems, and when they finally get some money, they realize that they still have lots of life issues to deal with (that money CANT solve). saying that a man needs to have a house/car/money before being happy or even considering marriage, is a fallacy (IMHO). happiness is irrelevant to having a car/house/money/marriage as we all know that many people with the above are still miserable in their lives. as for you calling marriage some type of "suffering", i guess it al depends on the type of woman you marry.

i dont believe in marriage, but i do understand why so many wanna get married... especally in a society like Nigeria, where marriage is synonymous with happiness. have you ever wondered why people still look at Linda Ikeji and criticize her for not being married? same with Genevieve or Don Jazzy? Nigerian culture/society views an unmarried person as lacking somehow, but sadly times are changing and now people simply dont give a fukc about how Nigerian culture/society views them, and they instead wanna live the life "they" desire.

If marriage is unfavorable to women why don't you all become baby mamas and save us the peripheries and extra costs? At least we prefer it that way and you can all have liberty too as there'll be nobody to control or dominate you
This your logic makes no sense. Who do you want to burden with your Babymama ish. You should carry the babies yourself, birth them and take care of them. No use arguing here, we all know reality is far from what you portray here.

How many of you are financially stable to afford babymamism, mtschew.
