gbam! you just said it.
And the funny thing is even those women claiming 25 are in most cases lying about their age. All of them are old cargos, it's only make up and push up bras nah im dey hide the sorry state of their body

kernniejay:
I think any lady that says she cannot marry a man younger than 33yrs must be in her 30s.

Emily22:
The age of the lady will determine the age-range of the partner she seeks for

CreepyBlackpool:
They're saying they can't marry a guy bellow 33 because then they're above 33 nah

yazga:
No some like older men 25 yrs old girls dating a man of 36yrs

midnighter:
33-37 is perfect marriageable age for a man

lilwetdick:


you are right, but seriously speaking he will have to marry a younger woman at least age 24-30 because seriously speaking i cant imagine a man at that marriageable age marrying a woman within the same age of 33-37.

2. Emotional maturity: The average woman is more emotionally mature than a guy her age. So, she has to look further to find a balance- MOST times. A guy has all the time to be stupid, even if he decides to be stupid for life, there will be a woman for him. Women have to get sense on time, she has a biological clock to watch and most men do not have that fix-it mentality.

Fountainofyouth:



I know of a 40 year old married man that is not matured at all, not even small, na only book e get for head, nothing again, and people tell him that with instances o, but he wouldn't listen, I dey always pity the wife, that's why I tell people being intelligent is so much better than being brilliant.

Godtschild:


For a Nigerian man.

Economy and culture is a factor. Countries with good economy is 25-29. Once a man is through with school and gets a job immediately and has worked 2-5 years, what is he waiting for? In the US a 29 y/o man has already worked for 5-8 years, he has already bought his first house..

When the economy was better (60s and 70s) Nigerian men were getting married much more earlier. Also, in the US the age has increased as their economy worsened. It used to be 24.5.

If you’re matured enough to hold a steady job for 5+ years (in that time you would’ve been promoted once or twice to leadership roles), handle more responsibilities, manage your finances enough to buy a house, manage your debts (loans), maintain a steady relationship (probably live in) then you’re emotionally matured for a marriage, all that’s left is a signed document. Sweet spot, 29 years.

lilwetdick:


what is maturity for a woman?

lilwetdick:


i agree completely with you but i also noticed people who get married between age 20-27, get divorce easily than those who married when older,let also not forget that countries with good economy do have higher divorce rate than countries with developing economies.

Nothing is wrong with a man U-33, but I will tell you the advantage of an above 33 man or what most ladies look out for in them (and older men in general)

1. Financial stability: I put this first because if you are old without money, one would wonder what you were doing in your youth.

2. Emotional maturity: The average woman is more emotionally mature than a guy her age. So, she has to look further to find a balance- MOST times. A guy has all the time to be stupid, even if he decides to be stupid for life, there will be a woman for him. Women have to get sense on time, she has a biological clock to watch and most men do not have that fix-it mentality.

3. Older guys are more chilled: Age, experience and more money to their pockets has taught them to take life jeje. They don't get angry unnecessarily over petty issues like younger guys who see everything as a bruise on their fragile egos.

4. They are more caring, maybe fascinated by your juvenile displays. Those things you will do and make the younger guy go all red-pilled, the older guy will tell you sorry, make you carry your wahala dey go.

5. They are most times not scared of looking weak or not in control. Unlike younger guys who seek validation of their fellow younglings, an older guys is a man all by himself. But don't mistake this for stupidity, he is very well watching and calculating.

6. If you really wanna tap into wealth of experience, then an older guy is your best bet. They witnessed Abacha's regime with clear eyes, they saw Yakubu miss that goal- he is like your History teacher. Also, his friends will most likely be his age group, some of their gfs would even be older than you- that is if you are really young. So, except you are a bimbo, you will be on your toes to upgrade, that way you don't look stupid at their hangouts . I can't say the same thing for younger guys who just sit around and talk about ASUU strike and their ex-gfs who are now single/lonely.

7. Oh! Their voice! It gets deeper and subtly assertive as they age. When they talk, they exude this confidence and masculinity. It isn't forced, read off a book or some alfa male code. You just can't miss it.

...etc

There are exceptions, but on the average, there is really no comparison. We get finer with age, all things being equal.
