THE BIG QUESTION: Can LOVE Be Possible Without LUST?

08/7/2014 7:33 pm

The world is labelled with tons of abstract concepts around which we structure much of our lives. Honour, Faith, Integrity, and the above two, love and lust.

As with such concepts, it’s never easy to land on a clear definition of the phenomenon. You can ask ten people to tell you what love is and chances are you would end up with ten different definitions.

To simplify things, my phone’s dictionary is going to define the two for us. Love, it says, is ‘strong affection for’ someone or something I imagine. Lust, is ‘a strong sexual desire for’.

Now what I plan to tackle today is whether love as we understand it is possible without lust? There seem to be this belief in our society where love has been tagged with all these positive connotations, whereas lust is treated as something not entirely healthy.

People have all these romantic notion tied to love, not to be sexist here but particularly our ladies. Lust not so much; everyone sees it as this animal desire that expires as soon as it is satisfied, and does not lead to anything significant in the long run.

After a lot of thought on the matter, I’ve drawn the conclusion that everything I’ve been raised to believe in this area cannot be right, and love is not possible without lust.

A key reason why a man would go for any woman is desire, and desire is a key component of lust. To put it bluntly, you see something, you desire it, and you go after it.

Don’t Try this at Home: Married British Couple Do Not Have Seks or Any Sort of Intimacy But They Say They Have A Loving Marriage

If you want your partner to leave your butt, try this with him or her—-no intimacy or seks.

Married British couple who have been married for 10 years but have had less seks than I have in a week claims, they are in a loving marriage even though they do not really have any sort of intimacy.

The wife-Paula McFadyen has a bedtime routine which is governed by her husband Ian’s aversion to intimacy. At night, she lies on her side of the bed and Ian lies on his side…And this means there is always no touching, no cuddles, no seks

Paula who claims people look at their loving relationship and are envious told British website-MailOnline.Com that;

‘For the first six years of our marriage he wouldn’t even sleep next to me in bed, because beds had such horrific associations. He’d be on the sofa instead. And he can’t say, “I love you” either. He uses other words — adore, worship — but never love.

‘We’ve been together ten years and I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of times we’ve had sex. It’s usually been when Ian’s drunk. But he’s always distant, detached. It’s never been satisfying for either of us.

‘I’ve noticed recently that he’s started being affectionate at supermarket check-outs. I get a little squeeze; sometimes even a kiss. I often wonder, “What’s all that about?” then it dawns on me: he feels safe in public. He can say how much he adores me because then we’ll get in the car and it all stops. He won’t have to take it further. Sometimes,’ she adds ruefully, ‘I think we ought to put a supermarket check-out in the bedroom.’

Here We Go with the African Nonsense: Liberian Religious Leaders Say EBOLA is a Punishment from God for Homosexual Acts

When you come across such stories, you do not know who to blame; God or those who claim to be following him—and have such thick minds.

A group of Liberian religious leaders have come out to say, the deadly Ebola virus which is killing several people across the continent is a punishment from God, to pay Liberians for on-going acts of homosexuality.

According to The Daily Observer, several church leaders from the Liberia Council of Churches (LCC) reportedly attended a meeting yesterday to consider a spiritual response to tackling EBOLA. SMDH!

“God is angry with Liberia” and that is why HE sent Ebola as “as a plague” said one of the religious leaders.

And this is how they came to agreement on what to do;

Chinese Parents Take Their 29 Years Son to Court to Force Him to Move Out Of Their House with His Girlfriend & Also Get a Job

One thing I love about Asian parents is their sense of discipline and the fact that, most of them do not take BS from anyone—including their own children.

This will hardly happen in Africa where most people live freely at home with their parents. In China, a couple have taken their adult stay-at-home son to court —in an attempt to force him to move out and get a job.

Their son-Xu Qing who is 29 and obviously lazy dropped out of university and moved in with his mother and father in Beijing after insisting he did not get on with his roommates at university. What a damn excuse.

And then his father got him a job at his friend’s company but the son walked our saying, the job was too damn boring… This guy must be living on Pluto—which job in this world is not boring?

Now Xu Quing who had no job spends each day at home—sleeping and surfing the internet. Out of this, he met a girl online, some girls must love losers.

His jobless partner also moved in to stay with him at his parents home and now the parents can’t take it anymore. The parents have to cook, clean and pay all the bills.

SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD: Meet this Michael Jackson Superfan Who Bleaches Skin with Acid and Performs Surgery to Look Like His Idol

Obsessed fans that go to insane lengths to look just like their idols are nothing new. Just last month a Kim Kardashian look alike surfaced, but Brazilian Antonio Gleidson Rodriguez might just take the cake as the most obsessed fan ever.

The Brazilian singer and dancer has gone to such lengths to resemble Michael Jackson that includes having plastic surgery, rhinoplasty, and spending a total of four hours daily practising his dance moves.

Gleidson Jackson, as he likes to be addressed, told the Daily Mail that he would like to perform more operations in his quest to achieve being the perfect Michael Jackson look-alike.

“If I can afford it in the future, I am thinking of working on my cheekbones so I can get rid of the wrinkles along my mouth- I also want to have my eyebrows arched”

“I would like to have my forehead tattooed and have my nose made even slimmer”

For the five years since he started this quest, Gleidson has had his nasal septum corrected in order for him to reach higher notes whilst singing, had hyaluronic acid injected into his face to make him look whiter and also had botox injections.

I am a strong advocate of free speech and I believe the true essence of free speech is having the right to be offensive. But I also detest the fact that, this means, free speech covers all manner of absurdities such as the above. Are these people ever going to be serious? I just hope … Read more

Ghana’s Black Star Goal Keeper FATAU DAUDA Says He Does Not Owe His Ex-Girlfriend + He Left Her Because of Her Excessive Money DEMANDS

On 11^th June, 2014, GhanaCelebrities.Com exclusively broke a story concerning Black Star goal keeper, Fatau Dauda, in which the said player’s ex-girlfriend and also a former beauty queen winner made wild allegations that Fatau owes her over GHC 10,000.

According to Lawrencia, Fatau Dauda was her boyfriend until they part ways in the later part of 2012 but before that, she went through a serious medical operation which cost her GHC 10,000 – an amount she claims Fatau promised to pay.

“Fatau Dauda is my ex-boyfriend. Most people knew about our relationship. Even on Facebook and in the media. My mum, brother, friends, and all my close associates knew of our relationship” she told GhanaCelebrities.Com.

She continued that “I was operated upon. The total cost of the bill was over GHC 10,000. I had serious complications after the operation which I’m still checking on. Fatau promised of paying the medical bills but refused. I had to use my own hard earned money to defray the bills.”

In a separate interview with the Local Representative of Fatau Dauda by name Mickey Boafo – during the World Cup season, he said he did not want to comment because Fatau was busy concentrating on his mission in Brazil and also, he had not gotten into discussion with Fatau to be able to know his response to the allegations.

GhanaCelebrities.Com got in touch with Mickey again but he said Fatau wanted to react to the story after the World Cup tournament. True to his words, Mickey Boafo got in touch with GhanaCelebrities.Com on Wednesday, 6^th August, 2014, and conveyed Fatau’s reactions to us.

“Yes, it is true Fatau dated her. It’s a fact Fatau has never denied and will never deny because he has never regretted dating her. According to Fatau, they parted ways long ago before he was called to play with the Black Stars. They parted ways due to the lady’s excessive demand for money. Fatau does not owe her GHC 10,000.

“GHC 10,000 is no money for Fatau to pay but he is very furious at the lady’s behavior! Must you come to the media? When Fatau proposed to her did she come to the media to tell them Fatau has proposed to her? The lady is a nice person! I even suspect someone is pushing her to do this.

“Fatau decided not to react but he gets calls from foreign clubs and it’s your site they all quote – because this is the medium she used to spread those allegations and your readers need to hear Fatau’s side of the story. According to Fatau, when she had the medical operation and got back to him, he gave her his entire salary for that month to pay for the hospital bills.

When An Ex-Partner Dies at 26…Telling My Story!

08/7/2014 9:29 am

by Edith Osei Bonsu

I am not sure how many of you reading this piece has experienced the unfortunate incident of having an ex-girlfriend/boyfriend die so young. And the shock is; I only spoke to her a week ago.

Last week, I was hit with another hard reality and I began to wonder a lot, importantly, if I was really good to her.

Though my ex-girlfriend, we’ve always been on talking terms and the last time we spoke, she wanted to me pass by her new office and pick up her MTN sim card which I’ve always wanted the number.

Probably, she knew she had few days to go but that didn’t seem like it because she was full of energy in her voice as she told me; “I am getting a new number from Airtel that I think I like so come for that sim card you’ve always wanted”. And “when coming for it, better bring me some lunch”.

I should have rushed to go for it that day with the lunch in my hand but I told her I will pass by next week. She didn’t live to see next week and I didn’t see her again and will never see her again in this world.

Though I am had moved on with a new girl, this has hit me more than anything and to think about the fact that she is just 26 makes it very scary.

And the Most HATED & Annoying Ghanaian Celebrity Is?

08/7/2014 8:31 am

by GC Staff GS

We all have those we love so much and will defend, patronize what they do and make sure their names fly. And we also have those we do not really care about—these are those who stay out of our thoughts.

The third group of people are those we cannot stand and perhaps hate for some previous conducts, past comments or the way they carry themselves.

Naturally, some people come up as loving and it is difficult to hate them, even if they step on your toes, my boyfriend is one of such people.

And there are those who are just plainly annoying, who makes it worse when they put up some behaviour or begin to find themselves doing the wrong things.

In the World of Celebrities, there are those of us who have become die hard fans of some of these celebrities (stans) and we have those of us who have become hidden haters of others—all because of what we’ve heard, read or have gotten to know about these celebrities.

Building on 10 years research on African skin, Dark & Lovely yesterday announced the launch of Dark and Lovely Crème 6 Oils body lotion, the first multi-active formula which combines 6 natural oils to help combat the 6 most common imperfections affecting African skin.

African skin is more prone to certain conditions of which the most common are dullness, dryness, roughness, unevenness, tightness, and an ‘ashy’ look. As a result, many African women usually add extra oils to traditional body lotions to retain moisture and rejuvenate their skin.

Based on these insights, Dark & Lovely responded to the needs of their consumers by creating a body lotion that makes it easier for them to address all these issues in one step. Dark & Lovely identified 6 natural oils that treat these 6 skin issues and combined them into the winning formula of Crème 6 Oils which allow users to get back the skin they were born with.
