Abegi, no vex It's just that the thing wey dey sweet me is how everyone is talking about "talking", when the initial poster asked about "thinking", and how onchedu's replies have been so formal and serious.
That's not true dear... U assume we discuss sex often. We myt want it a lot and myt have been stereotyped as wanting it more but the truth is we hardly discuss sex among ourselves. U see guys talking bout sex it's:
1. One of them has a problem and can't stand dying in silence any more and feels he can get help from the other, who probably is his very good friend or someone he believes is segxwally skilled and knowledegable.. 2. The one talking bout sex is bragging (probably lying too) and the listeners are only listening and cheering him cos his paying for the brinks they're drinking. 3. ...
Tribal Mark is what it is.. a tribal mark, for identification, ritual, or ceremonial purposes. I personally don't have any problem with tribal marks. I even find certain ones attractive, and some, respectable.
I thought you said local government should be involved.
You misunderstood me. I said that I am more comfortable with local governments than I am with state, but that does not mean that I'm comfortable enough with local governments to believe they should be involved. I still hold that government should stay out of it.
Maybe some people just aren't getting understanding me... I'm not against helping single mothers. I just refuse to accept and encourage single motherhood as a norm. Why should it be promoted? Why must it be encouraged? Why must we accept it, and not stigmatize it?
SINGLE MOTHERS SHLD B ENCOURAGED .......SO DEY DONT ADD MORE TO D ONES ALREADY HAD
What kind of logic is this? Encourage so that they don't add more? Encouragement only leads to single motherhood being viewed as acceptable, which in turn only leads to an increase in single mothers.
10 years... 10 years? Considering that increase in this world is exponential, by the time Nigeria achieves it's 10 year goal, the West, and other previous world superpowers would have increased their potency by 10. Nigerian athletes need to train outside of Nigeria, and make use of the technologies developed by winners (with the exception of steroids).
Kenyawest, I never said that Nigeria took care of single mothers. Rather, I said that our various cultures had/have ways of handling with single motherhood. Also, I am not thoroughly comfortable with state and/or local government involvement, but I am more comfortable with the local governments than I am with the state government.
Baur72, the stigmatization is aimed more towards the institution of single motherhood and not necessarily the single mothers.
