Their religion is like any religion. Bible says we are not to do this and that and we say we are Christian or else, but what happens? WE ALL SIN! These are human beings ladies. They are not by far Saints. Why do people keep acting like this culture is so pure. Both the women and men have faults. Why? Because we are all human beings and we are not perfect. I hate to read how they are not to date, etc when in fact they do have girlfrnds/boyfriends as early as secondary and Lycee. Not to say they are having sex and not all are having attractions to the opposite sex. They have grlfriends/boyfrnds. They have clubs. They have drinkers. They have prostitution. So does not mean because the poster and him are in a relationship without marriage DOES NOT mean her man is bad. We do most insinuate the worst usually to make themselves feel better and to make the other woman feel torn?
