I was replying to a post in which you mentioned both me and yourself.

And getting tired of this old retreat to the rules when you don't like someone's opinion. It's getting so old.

Sadly in Yorkshire the congas they do here dont involve foot stomping, which incidentally isnt even Nigerian, its roots lie in the Maasai warriors culture that come from Tanzania and Kenya.

Nigerian culture dances involve a lot of gyrations. These dances are portrayed in a bid to attract suitors, these traditional dances involves rhythmic movements of the chest and waist, which are predominantly performed by maidens who had come of age and were set to marry. They are a key aspect of the Igbo culture and are used to foster abstinence from sexual activities before marriage. I learned this from my time in Africa many years ago where we lived for 4 years.

You actually just named one particular type of Nigerian dance, that isn't the only one, a quick google search reveals

I really don't agree with this racist notion that you can't have different cultures in the UK.

The UK is a multicultural society, get over it. If you want to live the Nigerian Culture then you should without being looked down upon.

Multiculturalism is what makes Britain great.

I don't particularly like Hannah as a personality but her choosing to showcase her culture is not a problem- she's proud of it and why shouldn't she be?

All the housemates (with the exception of the miserable Kieran) were enjoying themselves and having fun with Hannah's dance last night, and it was nice to see.

She's grating on my last nerve now, tbh. I had to turn the volume down and go make a Coffee until she finished. So cringeworthy.

Wow chuff and Sampvt, I bet you two are fun at parties. It's called having fun and a bit of a laugh. (Nothing "bizarre" about it.) Maybe you should try it sometime.

Do you all sit in silence, not smile and not move at your ones? Sounds like it.
