Relationships today are so ridiculous and I don't mean parent and child, no i'm talking about man and woman.
Its become this games with rules and ways and styles and patterns, I mean one could go to school to study how to date in Nigeria. For instance, a scenario for a typical Nigerian girl would be; Is he married... How long has he been chasing you, how is he chasing you, make him work for it, he won't appreciate it if you are just simple, don't pick your call always, don't be obvious, don't use the 'L' word yet. Well still have other guys as friends you don't want to put your eggs in one basket, its just ridiculous. A scenario for a guy would be well I don't ACTUALLY KNOW.....its just so complicated. Why can't things be simple. A guy meets a girl, He loves her, they build a future together loving one another like in the stories, like Adam and Eve all easy and purposeful no games, no opinions, no stupid CULTURES. Just two people in love......................
I agree with you!
ReplyDeleteBecause they're worried about
ReplyDeleteslut-shaming. Getting labeled
a slut can damage a woman's
future in all kinds of ways.
Her family might reject her,
upper- and middle-class men
might be reluctant to marry
her, and rapists will know that she's vulnerable.
It's not fair, and it's not right, but it's still something that women have to worry about.
In modern Western countries,
slut-shaming is less common
and less powerful than it used
to be (feminism!), but
it's still around. So women
need to protect themselves
because our culture is sexist in ways that can be really
dangerous for women.
I think that for most women,
these anxieties decrease with
age and experience. So
"playing hard to get" is pretty common for middle-class
teenagers,(in our dear country "Nigeria" Forming) but not very many women over 25 bother with it.
By that time they know what
they want and have a more
secure position in life.
That's it.
