My man possesses all the wonderful qualities that Igbos are known for; subsequently, I married him.

My man is STUBBORN, demanding, hot-headed, controlling and always overcompensating for being short; subsequently, I will continue to honor my marriage vow. I will continue to love him. I will continue to ask my Heavenly Father to make my man all that he wants him to be. And it is so.

And the boy sends me swingin'! Be patient with brodas. Tell them what you want and need from them. And each day, teach them how to give it to you.

Okay, enough from me today. I'm going home to watch another Naija film!


Wow! Thank you o!

Naija Men ALL The Way!

I gets to have my red blooded Nigerian man people! i couldnt even think of being with any other!
i have never dated a non-nigerian, its just no use for me as far as i'm concerned.

There was this black french cutie pie who was on my case at school, he promised me heaven and earth, but he still didnt get our jokes, come on! how i'm i supposed to communicate without any fun and laughter that only a true Nigerian gets!!!!

They may be horrible in bed (i wouldnt know, i havent got a yardstick), but they are still the most romantic out there. i mean who cares about chocolates and flowers when a man forgets why he's a man in the first place: to provide and care for his woman. Thats what counts and thats what a Niaja man will do, when the chips are down you'd forget he was horrible in bed and be thankful he's on your side!

So i say give me a NIAJA man anytime!!

p.s. guys i have finally acquired a boyfriend and he Niaja to the
core!!!!

I agree that Naija men take care of their women, that's why I want a Naija man. But I would also like flowers, candy and a little romance from time to time. Congratulations on finding a Naija boyfriend, now all we have to do is find one for me.

well Naija men are not bad, i mean no one can tell me there is a particular race where the men of that race are ALL PERFECT. So come on Naija men have their bad and good side so does any other man from another race.

In all Nigerian MEN ARE WHAT I WOULD CALL MARRIAGE MATERIAL..........in a unique kindda way.

I definitely can't say that about other race, for instead haitian are known for really really beating up their wives (not that some naija men don't do it, but hmm not i have seen as to haitian men. no offence), blk americans well some, always cheat on their women, whites, many end up in the divorce court room, indians treat sometimes their women as slaves, spanish also, need i say more.

Nigerian men may have their faults but i have never been so proud of their hard work, devotion to family and their different yet special way of showing love.
Again no offence -don't get me wrong trying new stuff is not bad at all, though a reminder, not all that glitters is gold

This is a question that my friends, most of whom are not Nija ask me because i'm always bigging up nija men. I tell them that our men are special becuse i can relate to them.We speak the same languages, eat the same foods. My jokes they get and think them funny. With them i feel at home. The same way i was raised so where they. They are intelligent, hard working, and very family oriented. They make great husbands, fathers, brothers, and friends. They remind me of the men in my family, i feel safe and a sense of peace with them. I just really love our men, i can't imagine myself with a man from any other place.

Hello all,

I am loving this interaction concerning Nigerian men. As it relates to me, given my fragmented history across two continents, I am a fusion of two worlds....I love family, consider myself hard working (to the extent to what my history has shown), and consider myself somewhat intelligent but on the same token, I never fully assimiliated into the culture of my parents. I speak Yoruba fairly well but it sounds like a northerner (as in Nigeria) is speaking or at least what my true Nigerian friends would say...So over the years, i have to embrace my hybrid social upbringing accept that one of these forces will be the predominating theme in my life...As to which one it is, I will leave that to the discernment of the readers.

It is commonly believed that the family setting into which a person is born into forms the basis of the person's model of forming relationships in the real world....On that note, I have witnessed both the good and bad side of a Nigerian home. I have come to learn that men from each culture are good and bad...and that in choosing a mate, i have learned it boils down to who one can relate to and mesh well with, liken to gears in a gear box.....

Based on that, my experience is that I tend to mesh better with black American sisters here....no offense to our Naija sisters but experience has taught me that albeit to my chagrin....

As to the question of romance and giving of gifts and sharing of chocolate, the only thing I have to ask is why is this such an issue with Naija sisters regarding naija men?...Ideally, the concept of giving flowers, buying chocolate and being overall romantic can be considered a western tradition...i sure there are the traditional courtship steps but i don't think they involve the exchange of flowers or romance as it is done here well as my parents explained to me. The Naija men who do it so it because of personal convictions, experiences and preferences. So, as with most things, I plead, as some of our experienced ladies (eg mrseze), to teach us men be it of any race or background with a dash of patience, how to love you, romance and cause orgasms upon orgasms; the main caveat is that the ladies should know their bodies to better communicate their preferences to the men....well, i can say from personal experience, such knowledge does wonders in the bedroom....

Folobatuyi,
Why don't you go get married then ask your wife to teach you whatever you want to know.

Goosh! what is going on in here? folobatuyi get a grip.

Nigerian men giving chocolate and flowers? Something must be wrong with the mans head. The only reason why westerners give chocolate is because they want the sugar to go to the head of the woman therebye making the possibility of "comb" more realistic. Flowers are the sex organs of plants, so guess what the man is telling the woman when he hands her a dozen sex organs.

Nigerians do not need to do this because we are far more advanced. We are well versed in our language skills so when I ask a woman how far? and she says e good! I follow with "How body? and she says "e dey cloth!" that means theres comb in the not too distant future. No need for cocolate or plant sex organs.

Giving flowers is perhaps the dumbest thing westerners do. First of all, the flowers are only viable for a few days after which you have the added task of getting rid of the rubbish. Secondly, it does not really smell nice. It just smells like what it is, a plant. When I see women in movies smelling flowers, I always ask, what the hell is she smelling in that plant? thirdly, some plants can be pretty expensive and I'm not talking about the good ones like tobacco or whacky weed, but totally useless plants that have only the attraction of pretty colors to attract polinnating bugs!

To show my last girfriend how much I loved her, I bought her a goat!

Beat that mister romantic!

Hmmm  I guess we like flowers because they are sooo pretty and sometimes it is just the thought that counts. It also depend on what type of flowers you get because some flowers do smell stinky. To each his own though.
