The internet broke over the Vogue Cover photo of Rihanna, with a serious and confident expression, leading A$AP Rocky by the hand, their baby cradled in his arms as he affectionately kissed the child's forehead. The composition of the image bears a notable resemblance to the African Renaissance Monument, albeit with reversed traditional gender roles. Numerous individuals argued that the mere portrayal emasculates A$AP Rocky (the Men), offering diverse arguments to support their claims. Some even invoked the Green Line theory to justify their perspective, despite the theory lacking scientific credibility and having been debunked by experts as “simply not true”. Some argue that a woman being subordinate to a man is rooted in culture, while others continue reading: https://pawns.com.ng/the-feminists-have-a-point-patriarchy-is-problematic/ [URL = https://pawns.com.ng/the-feminists-have-a-point-patriarchy-is-problematic/]click[/url]

Did you choose what turns you on or did you simply find yourself attracted to it? When I was a kid, I ran around the neighbourhood naked. The adults and older kids sometimes chuckled and asked me to put on some clothes. With time, as I matured, I understood and felt self-motivated to put on clothes. Cloths not only protected my body from stains and injuries but also did away with the awkward feeling of all eyes looking at my penis. However, I didn’t understand what it meant to be sexually attracted to someone, yet. As teenagers, one of the core ideas that gets drummed into you (and that you get to repeat to others) is “Fornication is a sin!”. This, of course, made almost every kid super-uneasy about such matters. However, as puberty kicked in, fear gave way to lust. I still remember having erections so strong and long that I felt embarrassed to stand up in class when [...] Click this ink to continue reading: https://pawns.com.ng/lgbtq-in-nigeria/ [URL = https://pawns.com.ng/lgbtq-in-nigeria/] click me [/url]

Stop basing your standards on fairytales. 7. Do not focus on physical appearances (alone). 8. Find a person whose personality complements yours (but whose values are the same). 9.

I do not trust my kind enough to believe our gods We are brutish. We kill, rape, and destroy just for pleasure. We justify everything that soothes us We let our survival and pleasure fool us into thinking our actions are right. We rationalize that we are the chosen, and special, and deserving We are entitled self-centered creatures with an incessant desire to mate and fight We are quick to think the gods are ours We are quick to justify our abominable acts as the wills of the gods … how to improve humanity We pray for our fellows to die We go into battle and slay them, and their children, and their livestock’s, and their pets, and we burn their lands and we spit on their graves Then We thank the gods for victory We rape their wives and take their daughters as wives. We chain their able men and make them our slaves again, we thank the gods The earth rumbles and tumbles upside down and we are thankful to the gods that only our enemies are buried under the dirt we thank the gods for the flood and the locust, the hail, the famine, the diseases, and the plagues that ravage our fellows we pray for our kind to burn in eternal flames and be eaten by undying warms. We hate. We fight. We abandon, we reject, we castrate, insult, disrespect, dehumanize, torture, and imprison our fellows And we thank the gods We dance and make sacrifices to the gods that send death to ravage families and nations We create knives, guns, and bombs, we cover the earth and make it black with Sulphur and blood (Continue Reading - Click Here)

Zhel:*I have a little surprise (gift) for you at the end of this post* ![]() Many students make the mistake of thinking that gaining admission is the most important part of it, without realizing that going to school comes with extra challenges - big ones. As a student, you need to ensure that you're in control of your * Academics * Relationships * Money It doesn't matter who you are, if you don't get good at these three things school is not going to be fun. In fact, you would be wasting your time and money, and would even regret going to school. You need to understand how to * get high GP - without paying lecturers money * Talk to strangers, make friends, and even find love - because you have emotions, and need support. And * Make extra money for yourself (unless you have very rich parents) Many students think the approach that got them through Secondary school can get them through university, but they are wrong. I have seen people who performed poorly in Secondary school excel in the University, and those who excel in secondary school fail in the UniversityThis is because in secondary school * You are mostly competing against your classmates: They say, "if you have one eye, you are the leader of the blind people". But in school, you are competing against your own self. * You probably live with your parents, or a boarding school with cleaners and seniors to organize you. In the University, you are all alone and would have to take care of yourself. Can you live with a roommate, or all by yourself for 4 years or more? I see many people changing countless roommates and it makes me laugh. * You have to manage your money: you must choose how much you spend on food, clothes, textbooks, and fun. If you screw this up, well, you would suffer it. Unless you have very rich parents or know how to make money for yourself in school Good news for you, after spending 5 years in school, I have decided to teach students the exact working steps that I used to * Raise my GP to stratospheric heights * Built strong and Healthy relationship - that lasted beyond school * Made, and keep making money in school and beyond And it's all FREE All you have to is connect with me on WhatsApp, and I'll give the full course for free, all for you.

...a young man named Amnon fell in love with his own sister - Tamar. The feeling was so strong that he fell sick thinking about her. When he told his best friend, his best friend gave him an idea -A twisted idea. They arranged to get her alone. Amnon pretended to be ill and invited his sister to bring him a cake. Then, in the room, he overpowered and raped her. His dreams had finally come through Then, something strange happened After having his way with her, he immediately hated her and asked her to leave his room.

School can be fun if you know how to roll. Back then, every first semester I and my friends usually sit outside once in a while to try identifying year one students. It's not usually difficult. You can notice know from how they walk, talk, dress, and even interact with other people Most times it's funny, other times it's just annoying But that's not what I want to talk about today I want to tell you how to * Skyrocket your results when you get into the university * How to make friends that would support and stick with you in school and beyond * How to find the perfect boyfriend/girlfriend, and * How to make money in school. But the problem is that these are very long topics that need to be exhausted, and can't be covered in a short Post That is why I've organized a FREE WhatsApp class just to take a stab at the topics. If you don't want to join the WhatsApp class, it's still fine, I've also written a book on it that explains in details, and also gives solutions to * why you never came first in class - revealing the SECRET of every A+ student * how to read more, remember more, and write better * how to make lecturers mark your scripts with joy - and give you more marks * how to boost your brain and make it perform 10 times better then it also teaches you * how to talk to strangers - and make them even give you free lifts * how to make friends - that would support and stick with you even after school * Why you don't have a lover, and how to get one that would make you happy * How to live at peace with a roommate, or anybody really - this is very important * how to become the most loved person wherever you enter - this is a huge asset and finally, it teaches you * How you can make money in school and beyond - even if you don't have a job, a skill, or any goods to sell * It shows you how to go about your personal branding * how to make people trust you instantly * and many more In fact, it has a bonus section on top of it. Plus, I'll also give you a FREE gift if you buy it before Feb To get the book simply visit www.pawns.com.ng/books - it's just 1,500 Naira Only - for now To join the FREE WhatsApp class Visit www.pawns.com.ng/contact and click on the WhatsApp link you would see there - the class is filling up fast Thanks Anyway, let's proceed 5 YEARS IN SCHOOL - how you can get high CGPA, make great friends, find love, and make money in school easily Let me just talk about making friends When you gain admission into the university, most times you won't be lucky to get into thesame institution as your friends. I, for example, didn't know a single soul when I gained admission. This meant, everyone was a stranger, and spoke a funny language. To survive, I had to master the art of making friends - but I didn't know back then, so I struggled, and often times slept in the common room in hostels (with giant rats attacking me in the night ![]() Anyway, after some years in school, I began to master this art of making friends, and it's actually quite easy. The answer is not to try and be more social and talk to more people, the answer is in working on yourself For instance, when you practice the habit of smiling, you would be surprised just how many people that can attract. The thing is, people respond to the kind of energy you put out - if you're always grumpy, then everyone would instinctively frawn at you, but if you are cheerful, then everyone would reflect that happiness back at you. So, my secret formula is: Rather than being anxious to make friends, try to be more authentic - go out to the places you love and do the things you like - and you would begin to notice a particular set of people share thesame interest with you - Now, all you need to do is wear that smile and be warm to them. In school, this is not very difficult. For a start, you share thesame classroom with most of your departmental mates: this means you would constantly be in contact with people. The best friends are those who meet us where we are, because those are the ones that share the same interest with us. Your only task is to be warm to the people who come around you. All you have to do is to show your genuine interest in the person, that is if they interest you. This means, you have to look out for positive traits in the people around you, and when you find it, point it out to them. Maybe it’s your course mate who has a nice writing, all you have to do is compliment their writing. Compliment their intelligence, their shirt, shoe, etc. If you personally love wearing a good perfume, then compliment someone who wears a nice perfume. Friendships start when they return the compliment. When they say, “aww!! thanks, you smell nice too. What perfume is that?” "You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you -Dale Carnegie Strong bonds develop with time. It’s all about being pleasant. It’s about being nice. It’s about being friendly. Don’t expect it to happen instantly nor try to force things. Just be cool, be yourself, and keep doing the things you enjoy doing. when you come across people with similar interests or have a common problem or task, do well to be nice to them. When sharing ideas try respecting the opinion of others, no matter how absurd. Friends are never won by arguments. State your point, if they think it’s worth it, then they will agree, else let them be Focus on becoming a better person. Focus on building good habits, and chasing your dreams. Embrace self-development, and everything would soon fall in place. “Self-development” is the process of trying to be a better person, by learning and practicing good values and habits, respectively. With constant self-development, you’ll find the right people flocking to be friends with you. You would find people who would pull you up, and support you when need be. Your friends are always a reflection of who you are: If you stay indoors all day, then the people who match your character are also indoors. If you work out in the gym, or play football in the field, then that’s where they are. If you love going to the bar… you get the idea. So, focus on becoming a better person, and doing cool things (like learning a skill) and you would find like minded people. All that is left is you being kind to them. Kindness is a superpower – Garry Vee In conclusion, the choice of who, how many and how close you want any friendship to be lies solely in your hand. Be nice, be awesome and enjoy your life [to be continued in the Class and Book] ![]()

One day whilst walking along the streets with my cousin sister, a hyper-excited boy called out to her, but she turned around, gave him a one-word reply, rolled her eyes, and continued on our convo... Every guy fears that - we all fear rejection, and that is why we incessantly keep looking for the secret technique to make girls fall helplessly for us. Contrary to popular opinions, there is no secret technique to getting girls. In fact, trying to chase girls would "chase" them away from your life. Unless you want a) to pay a prostitute or b) date a girl who has low self-esteem, you are better off avoiding the chase If you really want to be happy in relationships, why not attract the exact type of girls you love - the high class, hot and intelligent ones? I know it seems difficult, but I want to reveal to you that it is easier than you thought. In fact, you can become so good at it that even your crush would be jealous if you don’t pick her I've written here the one and only secret you ever need to know before talking to the next lady about Many guys go about hammering girls with endless platitudes of how much they love her, without realizing that that qualifies them for two-position 1. To become her fool (the one she drains) 2. To become her friend (friend zone) I don’t know which is worse. But what I know is that they are both painful places to be Maybe I should give you some time to think about it? Maybe you should check out this article to understand better the one and only secret you ever need to know before talking to the next lady
