Why Nigerian Men Are Not So Romantic by gbenyi: 5:14pm On Jul 04, 2018 |
We have been learning how to act romantic since the year 1900 but the truth is, we are never getting any better. Every now and then, we get mauled by our women for our poor sense of romance. But the fault is not entirely ours. So many factors add up to why African men are not so romantic 1. No one ever taught us how to be romantic Where I grew up, it is near impossible to stumble on a sight of two adults holding hands on a romantic walk. It's uncultural and in some cases a taboo to kiss or show a partner affection publicly. This has become out way of life. When you grow up in a society that abhors close relations between the genders, it inadvertently becomes a part of you. 2. Lets shove some blame to our women Chofam interviewed and asked 50 women in Nigeria if they would kiss a man in public. 68% said they would not for varied reasons. 12% said they would, 20% said they would but only if it was absolutely necessary. In any case, it takes two to tango. If really the most romantic men were on high demand, more men would learn to be more romantic. But then, African woman value more of strength and ruggedness as opposed to caring, calm or meekness. Guys who indulge in romantic overtures are seen by the women to be less manly or weak. https://chofam.com/2018/07/why-african-men-are-not-so-romantic/ 1 Like |

sadly, everything is against Nigerian men and there is NOTHING romantic about their lives.... everything is social pressure, peer pressure, religion/family pressure, no wonder! btw, ask a Nigerian babe to accept flowers and walk in the park hand in hand,s instead of going to "feed her" in a fancy restaurant.... and see the "romantic answer" you will probably get from Nigerian women. the reality is that Nigerian men fit perfectly with their counterpart (Nigerian women) 2 Likes |

It's a question of definition. What's romantic to a Frech shouldn't necessarily be captivating and arresting to a Nigerian. There are so many factors to it, I hope you remember that. 1 Like |
