aariwa: I agree with you. Those ones still believe in the traditional marriage, the conservative way. I have friends married to them- those with a consistent Christian history- and their marriage is bliss. Makes me want to change my decision of 'finding from Nigeria'! lol. Well, I am not changing that decision though. (The Jamaican ladies who are 'crazy' are different, though. Those ones are very crazy.) Nigerian girls who act more feminist than the Scandinavians develop sense though, sadly at a later age of the forties. 4 Likes |

toshmann: Spot on. We all forget that there are things, evolutionarily honed character traits that make men different from women and which cements the social order. Whereas men and women are and should be equal as human beings, they are not equal in social character traits. Since the beginning, it's been not just a tradition, but an evolutionarily honed trait for women to marry up and men to marry down. Call it insecurity, a complex or whatever you want to call it, the bottom line is that a man's ( African, Asian, middle Eastern, or white European) psyche is not hardwired for co-equal long term relationships with women. Therefore, marrying a co-equal is a form of self-emasculation that modern society imposes on men. And the consequences? High divorce rates in the West. So, whether a lady has a great job, her one money, masters or PhD, makes no difference to African men still relish the old hierarchy where the man lies on top and the woman compliments him with her own feminine strengths right below. Feminity is still a woman's greatest strength. I find most African women abroad ditch their feminity for masculine attributes, calling themselves " strong women ". The idea of intimacy and co-habitation with a " strong woman" is very unappealing to many men, Africans and non Africans . So , at the end of the day, it is simple evolutionary biology at work, that make men, in this particular case, Nigerian men, seek humbler, home-bred women as lifemates. 4 Likes |

plaetton: And lest I forget too is the question of simple statistics. Back home in Nigeria, there is far greater variety of women to choose from that meets a man's dreams or values than in any city abroad. Therefore, a man has a far greater choice of meeting or hooking up a lady that meets his requirements like ethnicity, education, family background, social status, etc. For example, if a man abroad is looking to settle down with an Igbo lady, preferably in the age range of 25-35, who also must be attractive, university educated, sane , humble and good character, from a decent family , then he is looking at a shrinking pool, because, the statistical probability of meeting a lady in that pool who is also looking for him is lower the further he moves from his home base. In his hometown alone, he has a greater pool of women than in the entire city of London would offer him. 5 Likes |

FvckeDyoBiTch: I concur. I got a black American sister over at Baltimore. she has all those obnoxious traits you listed above. first time she visited Nigeria, she thought all Nigerians were sycophants and wanted me to 'worship' her. I confronted her, the b*tch said she's an American citizen, I told her am a Nigerian citizen and I'll treat her f*ck-up. she was shocked. fear catch her until she got the f*ck back to Us. I bet no nigga has ever spoken to her in such a way. 1 Like |

In the few years I've spent in the US and Canada, I've seen many Nigerian men married to Nigerian women abroad. I've seen quite a few go back to Naija to marry. So, I think it's a close call and depends on whether they've found what they're looking for in a life partner. 2 Likes |

She does not know my financial status. I never told her I was interested in her. We were just discussing as a group of four people. There is nothing like threat.

What many have not mentioned here is that this is not unique to Nigerians. I know many Western born and bred Asians, male and female who have married from Asia. Though some due to family pressure. Ugandans, Kenyans, Ghanaians and other Africans marry from home too. Remember also that most African men remain firmly African at heart. Years away from home and Western education not withstanding. Marrying from home and starting a family gives the psychological impression of being able to imbibe African values in the kids coming soon. Also, whether realistic or not, most men dream of returning to 9ja one day. That may seem more difficult with a non-submissive woman that had even found her way abroad in the first place. I know some pensioners who have returned to 9ja and the wives chose to stay abroad. Some of the brides taken abroad are long term girlfriends or teenage love too. Some re-acquainted through social media. And the liberal western values we espouse abroad, how successful are their marriages in the West? 50% divorce rate. So maybe the men who stick to African values are not that unwise. At the end, it is individual choice. 1 Like |
