Up until a few years ago, Nigerian ladies were renowned for their tasteful attire. In reality, saying that a woman has dressed to kill was a form of compliment and a sign that she has a great sense of style.
Unfortunately, this identical word, which was once used as a compliment, now has a different connotation. It is now used to describe the level of impoliteness in attire, particularly among women, rather than as a compliment. Today, women everywhere—not just in Nigeria—have elevated dressing to a very alarming degree.
Recently, a video that went popular on social media showed some women working in a business setting while completely naked, while not in
Another popular film featured men and women riding bicycles in the streets of London while completely bare. They were captured by photographers from various perspectives. The risk is that since the globe has become a small community and most Africans think that everything “western” or “foreign” is wonderful, it might not be long before the crazy spreads to their continent.
People have been expressing a range of sentiments ever since the two films appeared on social media; some have condemned them, while others have praised their guts.
Among those who objected to such behavior was Raymond Onyenezi, who called it insane and a clear invitation to abuse.
“This is insanity gone too far. Well, society has caused some people to lose any sense of morality, so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. What is the big issue when some people choose to go nude if same-sex marriage, lesbianism, and homosexuality can all be legalized?
Even in the next 50 years, he promised, “the madness will not come to Africa, at least not in Nigeria.”
James Chibuzo believes that if naked women are trying to attract males, they won’t be successful since he finds them repulsive.
“If their intention was to entice any man, they would have won skimpy shorts and something that will cover their breasts even by half, so that men’s fantasies about what could be concealed behind those skimpy shorts would continue to run wild,” he stated.
“But doing everything that way is even more offensive. You won’t be drawn to the sight; you’ll be enraged by it. It is quite regrettable that society has deteriorated to this point.
The DAILY POST’s investigation found that while both sexes participate in obscene dressing, women are the primary culprits.
Nowadays, most women, even those who are married, dress in garb that leaves very little to the imagination. Dresses that are extremely short, skin-tight, and figure-hugging are currently popular. They have abandoned all sense of caution.
The situation is the same wherever you go. Even places of religion, which should be venerated, are not exempt from this trend; they are being desecrated in the name of style. The problem has gotten so bad that some churches exclude certain types of women from sitting in the first three rows due to the disruption their extreme wardrobe choices generate.
Additionally, brides now expose their breasts for everyone to see on “breast day,” which has replaced the traditional wedding. You cannot help but agree that breasts are on display, all for free to male admirers, if you also take a glance at the plethora of bridesmaids that follow the bride to church.
Pastor Chidi Adum commented on the hideous fashions, saying: “Our women have gone crazy with their style of wearing. It has become the norm to wear indecently.
“ladies going nude is now accepted in the name of fashion, yet unwholesome bodily exposure for fashion is a subtle method to announce the level of irresponsibility that has plagued our ladies.
“Indecency has diminished the respect and status typically given to women. Finding married ladies involved in the bandwagon war is demoralizing. It seems like they are competing in a contest where the winner will receive a diamond or gold prize for best nude attire, he said.
The clergyman immediately cited Proverb 7:10, where God forbade righteous women from dressing like harlots.
Sadly, we no longer distinguish between people who reside in brothels and those who were raised in respectable houses. That is the predicament we are in in the Nigeria of today,” he bemoaned.
In her remarks, Mrs. Chinyere Anokwuru, President and Founder of SelfWorth Organization for Women Development, bemoaned the lack of pride and respect-worthy qualities.
Tank tops, bum shorts, tube tops, micro minis, low waist jeans and pants, jeggings, body hugs, crazy jeans, see-through blouses, and spaghetti tops were among the dresses she highlighted as being popular among women.
Jeggings are brand-new in the fashion series, she said, adding, “They are better than leggings since they are tighter. Sometimes it has a natural color that resembles flesh, giving the impression that the wearer is completely nude.
“Shorts that barely cover the bum are known as ‘bum shorts. Girls wear them to nightclubs and the beach. However, some women choose to wear them during afternoon street activities. Typically, they are worn with very high-heeled shoes to look elegant but to
