Safiaa: ![]() i cant accept it and move on. Final! Being 48 and single is very advantagious to a man if he get the following: money, sex, kids. As for the criticism that would come from parents, friends and well wishers, the man would simply travel to another country and only come back once in a year. Simple and short! Trust me, as a man, i really enjoy being single. I love it like women love money. 13 Likes |

ndubueze92:Man is a product of his environment and not the other way around. Our environment and opportunity shape us to a larger extent. Our mothers grew up in the village so their mentality and exposure didn't give them room to see unfaithfulness and inequality as bad so many stayed in abusive and unfaithful relationship because that's what their mothers and their mother's mothers thought them, that was the norm. These days "civilization" is being installed in our younger generation hence the change in characteristics. Get my point huh. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Shugavee: @1st embolden: Sometimes I laugh when I see ladies on social media hide behind "Societal pressure" as the reason behind their marriage desperation, society isn't the reason behind it, don't blame the society, you ladies are the reason and responsible for your desperation, nature has placed it for women's body to depreciate as they gets older, hence their desperation for marriage, because they no man will want to marry a woman who's her body isn't intact and fresh. @2nd embolden: According to the mentality of Nigerian women, a man should be the provider in a home in all ramification, so I see no wrong in an early preparation of a man's future ....(I didn't dispute the fact that woman shouldn't set their future) @3rd embolden, women have random sex more than men. 5 Likes |

Marriage is as fake as a China phone. Man is naturally not meant for one lady and a lady is created to be a cheat even if she's a pastor's or imam's daughter. So forcing those two together forever is a ticking time bomb. Some bombs don't explode so soon until death helps out just like some of our parents but others do. 2 Likes |

Whenever I think about marriage or the thought that someday, I will be expected to marry a woman and begin procreating, my guts constrict, I feel like taking a shit, my heart explodes with palpable dread, a warm sensation of fear spreads from my head down to my heels. My fight or flight instincts become triggered. My primal instincts take charge of me and I just want to eliminate whatever threats, seen or unseen, that threaten my wellbeing: such as marriage. Why do I feel this way? It is because I do not want to trade my freedom for anything, not just yet. They say--that is society says--that marriage is a good thing, but I am not convinced I want this good thing for myself, at least until I am forty years old. What is the essence of life? Isn't life meant to be explored and enjoyed, and wouldn't the lack of dependants or people who have legally binding claims upon my time impede how time I can allocate to myself? Marriage is overrated, it is a social construct that has neared the end of its universal usefulness. I am not anti-marriage, but I don't give a rat's ass if I die a bachelor. A person can only suffer in old age if they did not save up enough money for nursing/geriatric care. The era of people being sick with worry because you do not want to suffer in your old age has gone past, gone to a watery grave where it would never see the light of day; this is most especially true of my generation. Safiaa, you said a person who is 38 and unmarried would not have people to hangout with. I think, and I could be wrong, that your reasoning is flawed. Lots of young men in the 1985-1995 generation are decidedly anti-marriage. Even if they do get to marry sometime in their forties, the social environment would have changed so much in the coming years that it would no longer be a stigma to be unmarried. Safiaa, your thinking is conservative, way too conservative as to allow room for liberal thoughts and life patterns. The last three generations that judged unmarried people as irresponsible will largely not be here in the next thirty years. And it is even more troubling that you think a person, on account of their marital status, will not have friends. What happened to work? What happened to them owning companies or clubs or associations or being members of clubs, groups, meetups? The world is changing and to be honest, I shriveled inside a little bit when I read that. It is both sad and depressing at the same time. 8 Likes |

Hello Nairalanders! Let me put this clear, men are afraid of marriage not because of the money involved but for the multiple sum of expenses that will be enrolled on him on the long run & fear of instability in once business. |

Safiaa: we know that its wrong for us to have kids without getting married, and that is the reason why most of us get married- simply because its wrong not to. Some pple can live above this guilt and still be happy. Most pple are already doing it. A time will come when it would be very normal for a man to just have kids without having a wife.

SonsOfLiverpool:Man creates his environment and could well influence what he has created and not the other way round. The point of being in abusive relationship abounds today more than in the past! girls simply stick to the relationship because of material gains etc. Your points aren't viable reasons for the great behavioral decadence among the ladies. I'm just myself hustling till when I finally succeed, I will just buy a wife in Nigeria if I can't marry a non Nigerian. * forgive my choice of word "buy" I think that completely captures my state of mind at the moment. 2 Likes 1 Share |
