Could it be that the Yoruba boys tell no lies and always shoot straight in the face and let the other person know exactly how they are feeling in todays world?

I am no way behavioural psychologist and find it difficult commenting on common behavioural problems but dont all tribes, communities, societies and states of both the old and new world have them?

I am not talking about inappropriate chewing, refusal to school, aggresiveness towards family members all of which have nothing whatsoever to do with anything but a feline way of expressing possible insecurity or doubts regarding the world we perceive to be an inner territory.

That is a whole can of worms we will have to open some other time.

I think this may be societys fault and will not believe that my sister will want to blame males for the problems women (regardless of tribe) continue to bring upon themselves.

My sister should be complimented on how she looks. She needs to know or be told that in his eyes, she is the only one.
