*****************************************************************

        AAM ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING - September 29, 2007. Don't Miss Out!!!!!

*****************************************************************

I doubt that the problem is lack of wisdom on the part of young ladies, and 
I don't think the motives of the young men are ulterior to the young ladies, 
as that suggests the young ladies are completely unaware of the "motives" of 
the men and that whatever benefits accrue from cohabitation largely goes to 
the men. These adults (young ladies or men) knowingly enter this type of 
relationship and mutually benefit from it. Also, the fact that many young 
ladies agree to enter (and remain in) such relationships makes a statement: 
they do not want to wait for the man who values them as "the one they were 
waiting for."

Regards,
Uche.
