Do those women say they need husbands? If no, don't give yourself headache for their sake. Most of the married ones are even plotting to become single.

Their values have changed. They don't care about marriage. Some of them don't even care about having children. They have enough money and can make upfront payment to companies that will care for them in old age.

What I worry about is the continuation of humanity.

Everybody can now understand why the likes of Boko Haram are against western education.
It destroys the traditional family values and keep the two genders at loggerheads as both men and women appear to be in contest of who is smarter than the other. No gender wants to 'gree' for the other.

Continuity of human existence is clearly threatened by the above scenario.

So, all your little brain could think of is that I support Boko Haram? Much as I don't support Boko Haram and their violent ways, I also understand that they are fighting to correct one of the negative sides of Western education and civilization,,,which is the destruction of the traditional family system.

Every right thinking individual understands that education, especially women's education, tends to destroy the traditional family system. Women who are empowered via education and employment would still want the men to be the traditional men who are seen as the sole providers yet these women would not stick to their own traditional roles of being submissive to their husbands and taking care of the children and the house generally. This is the reason why many men are not interested in marriage these days.

Or are you not seeing the alarming number of unmarried men and women in the society Don't you realize that such situation threatens human existence on earth

Western education and civilization are good but we have to work on maintaining the family unit. If women know that they're not ready to change their mindset from what they think a man's role is in the family to the mindset that aligns with the current reality of women empowerment, then it is better to stop all the hue and cry about gender equality, girl-child education and women empowerment. We must then withdraw our women from schools and work places so they can go back to their husbands' houses and become that submissive traditional wives for whom traditional men paid dowry and catered for. The Taliban did it in Afghanistan, so we can as well do it here. You don't expect to eat your cake and still have it.

Hardly to see a rich or successful woman crying for marriage because she has what it takes to get a way from *poverty *.

Downside to upside of women liberation.


To think you come to this world to work and build careers is one of the most sickening forms of orientation to impose on the human mind.

Men can easily break pass it. but once it set in for women it's hard for them to emerge out of it.

Women living in Nigeria can never relate


They will be asking mumu questions like

Did they tell you they want husband?

Most don't even have friends in the UK so they don't understand

VULCAN:
Aren't you embarrassed that you couldn't understand the article?

It's not like it's a treatise on Quantum Mechanics oo

The writer just took time to identify that many well to do Nigerian women in the UK are single against their will and pertinent reasons why men are staying away from marriage.

That's not rocket science

Biglittlelois:
How come it is usually Men that cry more than the bereaved? I don't understand.

BarrElChapo:
Like the article posited, these women don't wanna be submissive so most men steer clear.

I think when women stop being eager to get married, men would start rushing to get married. When I was growing up there was an old man who had all sort of fruit trees in his farm, guava, mango, orange, apple, what we called fruit etc. We the neighborhood kids will pluck a lot to take home but you never saw him or his kids bother with plucking fruits.

The average guy with a decent life can get married with the wave of a hand or the push of a button so he isn’t exactly keen on it. It’s the same way women turn down sex offers, they could get it whenever they want. It’s the abundance mentality.

God cursed man with hardship, man doesn’t appreciate anything he does not get through hardship. If getting married becomes difficult for men, they will do the work to get married and keep the marriage. If you have an assignment due in four hours but the question is 1 + 1, there’s no motivation to start early, you can do it at the last minute, likewise a man with six women chasing him for something serious. Where’s the motivation to pick one?

If you could think properly for once, you'll realize that many Nigerian men are getting into crime nowadays in order to meet up with the expectation of their women. This is because the empowerment of the women folk reduced their chances at work places and also created a generation of women whose expectations from men are so high that only a few privileged men can meet up. This is one major reason why some guys now resort to crime in order to meet up.

Why can't Nigerian women kick against payment of bride price and also contribute 50% of the funds required to run their homes? If they cannot do the above, then their education and employment is of no benefit and would rather destroy the traditional family system. I don't expect you to understand the point I'm making though

So why will she look for an uplift empowerment, when she had all and all.

Oh so women are the cause of the death of traditional family and marriages? purely women? because we were empowered with education, so education should be withdrawn from us? that is the only way traditional marriages can thrive? only when women become illiterates?

No wonder Nigerian men cannot produce anything, they cannot invent anything, they cannot even rule their country right, except to kill, kidnap, steal, yahoo, skull mining, cannibalism, cultism, corruption, fraud, and all sorts of evil vices, Nigerian men have spoilt our images abroad, you are not known for anything good outside this country except negativities, that is why in your own little 2 by 2 cubicle, you can spew all this nonsense and think you are making sense, western countries that are above you in every ramifications will never be caught saying utter rubbish like this and be proud of themselves, no wonder Africa is seen as a cesspit and a third world continent when the men ruling it are nothing to write home about with their sad little thought process

The world is failing, from Africa to the whole world, thanks to men and their bad decisions, yet what your limited brian could only think of is women education as the cause of men's inability to hold the home front as the captain of the ship by sailing it to the right direction for a productive end result,

The next generation of Nigerian men will be the undoing of this nation, which is a good thing anyway so that everyone will be accountable to their own region, which will make it easier to remove shafts from wheat.

Go and ask pastors that are into marriage counselling if rich and successful women cry for marriage. They stand a better chance of giving you a more credible answer.
