Nne if you are really Igbo (you know these days even Igbo phobic individuals bear Igbo names) you don't have to apologize or seek approval from anybody to practice your lifestyle because ancient Ndigbo allowed women to marry women. The practice was abolished by the missionaries.

Where in particular in Igbo land was that culture practiced?
For what purpose?
If that had continued, would there still be Ndigbo today?
Please answer the questions...

You are been mischevious right? Their only purpose was to birth to continue the family's lineage.

Did the ladies ever tell you that their wives ever slept or romanced them?

They had menfriends who got them preggy and serviced them too. most times they left to remarry after.

Rich powerful women got married to young girls, the young girls could take lovers and birth children but the woman was the head of the home and also very respected. It was highlighted in the books of some famous Igbo authors, Buchi Emecheta. It is also still practiced in some parts of rural East Africa. I love this part of history.

Poster, I love you.

LOL, you are talking with your tongue in your cheek.
First question, Are women allowed to marry in ancient Igbo customs?
Ans, Yes.
Women marrying women in Igbo customs is the only scenario where a separate house won't be built for the other party unlike Man to woman. Allowing both to cohabit.
Now tell me what the two would be doing in the same bedroom at night?
Don't look at this beautiful custom with your Christian perspective

The practice is a matter of choice which is most times practiced by extremely wealthy ladies. Some even go to the extent of marrying more than one.
The custom was practiced in the entire Igboland
Thank you

What is the essence of marriage if you exclude sex? Or do you want to dictate to married couples what they do in the other room?

There are so many shades of wrong in the Igbo culture, I bet the forefathers who sat down to formulate so many nonsense in their culture were highly drunk or intoxicated with something else undecided

I only blame the stinky gays that gave you the effrontery to bouth the Igbo culture and forefathers.



For the smelly gays, please keep your stinky fingers and assholes away from Igbo culture while looking for to continue debasing yourselves.

This is nonsense.

It is an open secret that lesbianism is widely accepted in Nigeria. In some Igbo culture, a woman can legitimately marry another woman under some circumstances.

Well look at it this way. If the practice continued, not everyone will be involved in it.
People will still marry other genders and Ndigbo will still be here today, thriving.

Everyone can’t live the same lifestyle

Lol. See a Yoruba woman telling Igbos about their culture.

Igbos are saying what is obtainable but see how you garnish and laced it with obvious obfuscation to make it appetizing to your gullible readers.

Readers note::
The aforementioned union is based solely on procreation not romance between a woman and another woman.

Your submissions are just mere hearsays as it is obvious you have no idea what you are talking about.

You obviously have never seen "where a woman married a woman in Igbo land" because such never existed. What you are observing is a well known facts of a woman being married for a man (dead or alive) or even family for the sole purpose of procreation. The reason it might seems as if it was a woman that's marrying them is because of the pressure childlessness placed on a woman in the society. The wife or widow spearheads the quests for solution but the woman bears the name of the man.

These women are often sought by the elderly widows who birthed female children, couples suffering from infertility, families without male heirs and most times families looking out to have someone at home while they resides in the cities.
This is an advanced form of surrogacy but peeps with warped minds won't get an enlightenment, and will not also, stop looking for reasons to delve into their closeted absurdities.
Note thàt no woman is having marital relations with another woman according to this Igbo land tradition. It is an absurdity.

LOL, you are just using modern day Christian based reasoning to view the matter.
Woman-woman marriage in Igboland was never based on procreation for a Man or family because in the marriage, any issue birthed by the bride bears the surname of the lady groom (for easier understanding grin).This shows that the lady groom has full control of her marriage. Tough some barren women do take advantage of this custom to cuckold their husband because if she is the one that married the lady and when the lady gives birth, she has undiluted custody and control over the identity of the child and tends to withdraw her husbands access to it if the husband messes up.

You know that the above is an utter crap, right?
A figment of your imagination. It is obvious that you are projecting it to be the above based on some unfathomable motives.

There is no 'lady-groom' as the co-wife is not even present during the ime-ego nwanyi.

Do some research please

You think I'm one of those "my mama say I be Igbo from Lagos?" I am talking about what happened around us and you are here thinking you can wish it away or cover it with a basket. The last part is a proverb though, decode it if you are Igbo

Because your answer is wrong, incorrect and inciting and albeit baseless, filled with assumptions and incorrect information.

Nah, I barely used two lines and referenced the books that 'assumption' was based on. You couldn't help yourself, seeing an Ayọmide answer that question triggered whatever bigotry exists inside of you. Please stay triggered.
