Honestly I don’t even know. Even the Gucci shoes I got off on sale cost me around 1000 usd for the two of them. The same shoes will probably be sold to me 10 million in Nigeria and will probably be fake 😂

C'mon, man!

lol that means Canada is a no go area for single people like us

Of course not! Do not write off your ability to form healthy, two-way, loving platonic or romantic relationships with the locals (African or Caucasian) wherever in the world you live.

Just read a fascinating article about the glory days of the Benin Empire. Her walls stood four times as tall as the Great Wall of China. That's 20 metres!

But, as part of its conquest of this great civilization, the British Empire blew up those walls and looted the Kingdom's antiquities.

The disregard for the preservation of history.
The flagrant manipulation of a people's story.
Think of the billions of Tourism dollars we could never earn (like China).

Yes, you will. They know that. Your Interviewer is anything but a deluded fool. So, in replying hypothetically, be brave enough to say you continue to seek better opportunities for growth. And should a greater offer come along, you'll be sure to alert your current employers and give sufficient time to find your replacement.

Oh and throw in a bit of generosity; you'd be thrilled to train your replacement before you resign.

I couldn't agree more! I've written about this same thing here.

Commonfolk are up in arms against Governments world over. At least one country on every continent on the planet has had to grapple with citizens taking to the streets in protests and leaving a trail of destruction in their wake.

Is 2024 some sort of awakening?

Notable mentions:
1. Maduro's Venezuela - South America
2. Anti-government/ Anti-migration/ Anti-Islam protesters in the UK - Europe
3. Barcelona's lost love for Tourists, Spain - Europe
4. Pro-Palestinian rallies in the US - North America
5. #EndBadGovernance protests in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, need I list more? - Africa
6. #EndQuotaSystem extremely violent protests in Bangladesh - Asia

All eyes on the Australian Continent...

Couldn't help myself
Read a meme here once. Went thus, word for word...

"If they explain Nigeria for you and you understand, that means they didn't explain it well."

Update:

Quit porn and masturbation in the same stride. If not for anything else but because by it you evolve into a man who:

A). Is altruistic to all yet comfortable enough to say "No" to any woman's (or man's) silly request. Her pretty face, blonde hair or race are inconsequential.

B). Goes through life without anxiety and with a firm resolve to put in the work in his craft/ career for astounding results that are almost always sure to follow.

So refreshing to see even the US has a long way to go, politically what with Biden mumbling nonsense and a confident Trump spewing falsehoods.

My comment in no way endorses Nigeria's Political leaders.

Not I surely, my lord.

This is hard for me because I don't know who is who on this section.

Might I suggest a Zoom Call with some applicants? I also think Tensa's a great choice through and through; what with his loyal aide-de-camp, Gerrard59, to hold him to .

Enjoy this intense devotion and affection while it lasts. It's cute and irable and tragic all together.

I'd also advise cultivating friendships on the side; one or two other guys with whom you grab beers and steak, say once a month.

Just so you know, when this relationship ends you're gonna need 3 years of therapy. When this emotional dependency ends, you're gonna be so broken, so effing broken, it'd be a miracle if you made it through. But your (ex)girlfriend will recover alot faster than you do. Why? You're the one who was "changed".

Hard to know without alot of data. The anecdote you provided wouldn't be enough to judge society.

Good point!

If you dont make 100k $$ in any big city abroad, you are worse off abroad.

Even a majority of the highly trained, Ivy-league-educated citizens don't make as much.

Is this trolling? I should hope not.

Everyone says Nigeria is currently facing it's worst economic misfortune in generations. Staple commodities are beyond the financial reach of the common folk. I get my daily dose of updates here on Nairaland.

But...

I know two girls whose high-end fashion and beauty businesses are literally blowing up in Abuja and Lagos. They don't sell food which everyone says almost no one can afford.

They sell wants not needs to girls upwards of 150k per unit and are still making a killing. So my question really is: Are only men experiencing this economic downturn?

lovediehatelive:



You are spot on.
Probably
Society made it to tame women.

I also strongly believe that estrogen too plays a big role in women's ego, as in hiding their sexual urges from public eyes.

Like that's how they're wired, to be conservative about that. While men are wired to be expressive about sexual urges.

That's why women use sex as a powerful tool against men, even though they arguably enjoy it more.

Simply means men are losing their shirts at a game women are adept at.

FitCorper:
Anyone who criticizes this post still has a lot of work to do to discover themselves. Just forget about sex and focus on becoming better. Generally everyone becomes nice to u but u still gats use ur no 6. Funny enough wen u start focusing on yourself u won’t need pickup lines or fmt for ladies, even wen u make mistake approaching her, it will turn to joke between u too. Focus on urself, remove sex from your mind and watch the universe align for you.

Nazgul:

See how myopic your hatred for men is making you sound.

An average lady would easily stand a better chance defending herself from a strange man in the forest than a bear. Do you know what a bear is?

You can stone or hit the man with woods from the forest if he tries to attack you, and he'll slump right there and you'll be free. Can you do that to a bear...of course not. You'll end up being lunch for it.

RoyalUc:


How many degrees do you have?

Let's start from there.

Uhm... Just about enough for comprehension.

You aren't very literate.

Came across a commentary about this question at home tonight on MSNBC. What's your take, ladies?

lovediehatelive:
It's like I understand the point op is trying to make.

In summary: men are naturally attracted to women for sex. When a man sees a woman, the natural thing is to want to sleep with her.

Women are naturally attracted to men for what men can offer. It may be material, financial, emotional, and plenty plenty. When a woman sees a man, she starts sizing his pocket and what she can get from him.




But it would be rude and offensive to a man if a lady he's meeting for the first time just asks him for money.

Same way it would be rude for and offensive for a man to just see a woman and ask her for sex straight up.


Yes, that's how nature designed it, but as humans, we normally don't eat our food raw.

We like it cooked and other things added to it.

An animal can just start eating raw rice straight up or meat.

But humans have to first cook or prepare it one way or the other.



So the point is, a man doesn't want to be seen as ATM by any woman.

Why a woman doesn't want to be seen as a prostitutte by any man.

So, we have to pretend and cook it up.

Men have to find something to make her see reason with him. It could be care, showing concern all all those frustrating stuff to cook it up.

With this, you keep giving subtle hints that you desire her.

Women should pretend they genuinely care, and as they engage in discussion and get along with the man, they start dropping subtle hints that they need money or whatever from the man.


Before you know it, these things gets cooked to a stage that the man or woman doesn't feel disrespected

Thank you.

Fikkoski:
Why should we keep loving those who don't love us?
Why should we keep respecting people who don't respect us?
Why are we afraid to lose people who do not value us?

You know exactly what to do but you are acting confused because you are afraid of doing it!

If we ever met, I'm sure I'd take an immediate liking to you, dear evolved soul.

OP clearly is yet to come to with the new reality. Marriage is losing its appeal world over. Where, decades ago, an unmarried 27-year-old girl must have been someone with an inexcusable character flaw, now women in their 20s are all-together refusing to be tied down by marriage.

Why should they?

There are no tangible incentives anymore: They make twice as much money as their male counterparts, their careers have taken off, social media use gives them validation to no end, society has largely normalised single-parenthood, and in today’s sex-crazed society a girl can make your annual pay-check on a single trip to Dubai/ Miami/ Abu-Dhabi.

The very few women who accept to be partnered up are always in a haste to abandon ship.

Face it, Jeromestarks, we have created a society where women see no real benefits in putting up with men and their shenanigans. Your Evening Newspapers (27 and above) are simply settling for a lifetime without you.
