I am not due for an update till tomorrow, but tomorrow is when the show on Verastically Speakin will come up, asking and tackling what I will now dramatize and call the ultimate question: What Do Women Want??? That is why I have decided to blog about it today. I want you to have at least twenty-four hours to think about it. I will be co-hosting with Diamond-Hawk & Rosie. Rosie has conveniently changed her name to Lucid Lilith, which has been a tongue twister for me – even now as I type it, it’s a finger twister, so I have reserved my right to call her Rosie. So….
What exactly do women want?
- Love?
- Romance?
- Respect?
- Companionship?
- Loyalty?
- Security?
- Stability?
- All of the above … plus a totally smackable bum? [Okay, maybe just me then].
I know what I want, but you’ll have to wait till tomorrow to find out. And no, it’s not just about the smackable bum. Thank you very much. I also know what the men think women want. They think we don’t know what we want. Well, do we have news for them or what?
I remember when I used to want a man who will want to do a lot of public display of affection with me. I quickly realized that I had to narrow my want; apparently, the public display of affection didn’t feel quite good when I was not into the man in the first place. I remember when I used to want a man who would have all sorts of sweet terms of endearment for me – baby, honey, sweetie – then I realized I would prefer that he not say baby every five seconds. I remember when I used to want a man who would know the little things about me. Oh, yes… then I got that one that remembered my bra size, but not my last name. I would have probably felt better if he had at least seen the bra. But to think that my very public last name was WAEC to him….
Tsk. Tsk.
I know I know what I want now.
************************************************
The poll is up there. If you have not voted, please do. If you have voted, try to vote again because your vote might not count. Reason is that I had to redo this poll four times, and each time I redid it, I had to take off the one you already voted on, so please vote again. Thank you.
Last but not least, the time for the show has changed. Well, the time in U.S. is the same, but outside of U.S., it might not be the same. U.S. changed time on Sunday; the clock went back one hour, so Nigeria, for example, is now six hours ahead of us, instead of five. That said, if you’re in Nigeria, Verastically Speakin’ will air at 4pm your time NOT 3pm. I said 4pm oooo!!!! It’s still 3pm GMT. Apparently, it used to be 4pm GMT – even though I’ve been proudly saying 3pm GMT and none of you corrected me. Confused? Maybe the table below will help.

So I'm first again?
ARGHHHHHH Anonymous!
I was this close!
Women dont know what they want jo.
They spend their whole lives figuring it out…hissss
Fabulola.
hehehe. Sorry O.
Fastest finger first!
anonymouses claiming are just too funny to me, lol
I love your humor Vera, like for reals. Making something funny out of nothing just cracks me up. I laughed in between the lines in this your post, like most previous ones. I don't crack u
if you're like this in reality, I will laugh every time that I'm with you.
Maybe it's just me, but I've been keeping this comment to myself cos I think it may sound too cheesy/gay/cliché.
Fabulo-la speak for yourself o! Some of us actually know exactly what we want
Anonymous: Yes ooo. You're first again. I'm gonna have to start charging you. Did I say that already?? It's starting to feel like deja vu
Fabulo-la: Don't give up, Fabulous Fabu! The fight must go on. LOL. And bia, don't be talking about us [women] like that ooo. Kilon mean sef? U go wound o.
Anonymous: I have to agree with you on that note. Well, Fabu will fight for her crown next time.
Yinkuslolo: Ah, Anonymous has to claim spot too ooo!! LOL @ the comment sounding too cheesy/gay/cliche. So I guess I shouldn't confess that I'm mega blushing then? Hehehe. Yinkus, thank you, my love. Thank God you're laughing. But if you ever feel like you're in love with me, please don't hesitate to write me a love letter — which you would be sent via a brand new range rover. And I'll keep the ranger rover oo!
Nice Anon: Abeg, helep me to tell Fabu ooo. Just hold me before I organize area boys to do her something.
@Vera, lol at charging me, after all the effort it took to type out all those words! God dey sha.
Verastic vera… you never fail to crack me up. Poor Mr Shoes..his butt must be all red by now. How does he manage to sit?
I'm definitely gonna listen to this show. I'v been wondering the same for quite some time now.
Was of the thinking that women don't actually know what they want..but hey wat do i know 🙂
Will try to hook up to that show.
I cannot wait for this show! hehe..:) Ill be thurr! I know what I want though!.. I think..
So Vera, is Majid's Butt u want to be smacking huh?
lol
I'll still be sleeping when the show runs but will listen later. With the poll, the discussions seems on the right track.
I'm very surprised that security ranks low in the polls because I think it encompasses a lot of the options covered.
Well, thelist did not include this ''a man that can cook and change diapers''. I am sure loads of women won't mind having that.
And my friend, u berra go mark register on my blog before i count 5.
1, 2, 3, 4….oh I can see you there.lol
Come online joo and lets chat.
Anonymous: LOL. Okay, fine. Since you put it like that, I guess I won't have to charge you after all.
Quaggar: Mr. Shoes is very, very, VERY lucky to have someone like me who is there to smack his bum. He manages to sit just fine. Thank you for asking. Hehe. After you listen to the show, I hope you learn what women want ooo. And then, of course, you can send me some money or something.
Blogoratti: Welcome to a new breed of women – the ones that know what the want and want what they know that they know that they want. Okay, even I am confused. But you get the message sha…! LOL.
Ms. O: No dey think ooo! You berra know. You gorra gorra know … of course. Anyway, tune in tomorrow. That's what's more important.
Chayoma: Ehm…mba oh. Majid's butt is nice but I have a experienced a nicer butt that I'd prefer to smack. Babe, if you smack Mr. Shoe's butt one time ehn… mm mm mm, you'll never wanna smack another butt. But that's fine sha; you don't need to smack it. I'll tell you what it feels like.
Myne Whitman: Sleeping, you said? How dare you sleep while the "world" is discussing what women want? Say no to sleep and call in, darn it! Yes, I said you should say no to sleep.
Anonymous: I guess it's different strokes for different folks. Plus, people probably analyze it differently.
women want a caring caveman….simplez
Women want a gold pottery vase but when they have it,they let it break..
Ttlolla: LOL! Well, as long as the cave man is caring … hehehe.
Trybes: Maybe the pottery vase was only gold plated.
