Now I know the origin of Denrele and bobrisky's curse

Why leave Bisi Alimi out? Is he or she not Yoruba?
Yorubas are not the only people that loved and practiced homosexuality.

Hausas do as well. They have a word for it called ‘Dandaudu’.

Leave Yoruba people alone to practice their homosexuality. They are not practicing it with your buttocks.

We already know this na so she should come with something else.

It is interesting the in Yoruba there are no words for apple, pineapple and even onions (alubosa from etymology shows that it was adopted and changed for easy pronunciation) yet there are two distinct words for being gay.

You have words like adodi and adofuro meaning being homosexual has always had some place in yoruba history but what is not clear is if it was outlawed but then again, there has never being historical evidences to show anyone was punished for it.

But then again, it is never seen that people practiced it in the open either by marriage or it was socially accepted but it existed.


As for the cross-dressing, popular musician Obesere has been wearing female clothing on stage for tears so Bobrisky's antics does not even surprise me. I guess what changed is the attitude and seeming feminity of Bobrisky that draws attraction to him

Whether Sango was a gay or not, homosexuality is disgusting and should be expunged from our society. People keep finding ways to make us comfortable with it, but it will be forever an awkward and disgusting topic. *spits*

you talk trash bro... there's a Yoruba word for pineapple... 'adodi' n 'adofuro' only mean someone who does anal and not homosexuals. they're even modern words as they're phrases and not single words.

That means Kwame Nkrumah was a homosexual, and all the Ashanti's kings too, they all tie wrapper just like Agemo wear long skirt like Sango did.

If you say tattoo, ear piercing and hair braiding for men now, I know Yoruba invented those, not homosexuality. Though I've heard a deity did appear in male and female even animals form, so it could be that.

Yoruba culture is now the one everyone washes hand on, when she can find people all over the world and even in her backyard cross-dressing, pathetic!

Adodi and Adofuro are not the Yoruba words for homosexuality, they are RECENT coinages to ridicule gay people. And they are very insulting slurs when they are used. They are even worse than "gay" in English.
If Adodi is being gay, then how does it describe Lesbians (who are still gay) and crossdressers?

Mr Man, stop saying RUBBISH to appear half smart.

How does Cross-dressing prove homosexuality?
By your analogy, Obesere must be gay right?

Why do I suspect OP is a closet queer seeking justification in his heritage. On behalf of the yoruba race, we honourably deny and disown you. Benin people, over to you, he's all yours.

Deliberate twisting of history should be considered as a punishable crime. Did the lady even ask herself when trouser was introduced in Africa to label Sango a cross dresser. The only feminist attribute exhibited by Sango was the plaiting of his hair. And that started after he married his last wife who was always plaiting his hair out of love. The most painful part is that there are thousands versions of Sango's history and it is very hard to tell the original undiluted one. Another history book has it that there were two Sango. The original Sango during the era of obatala and Orunmila. Another Sango, which is the 4th king of Oyo (birth name: Itiolu) copied the attributes of original Sango.

On the point of Adodi and Adofuro as used in the yoruba proverb. This is extremely ridiculous. These two words actually mean the same thing as Adodi is a more subtle way of the word Adoduro. It has nothing to do with homosexualism. In fact, yoruba culture frowns at homosexuality
