luvmijeje: I'm proud to be a feminist. Anyone who doesn't like it should please hug a live transformer. I can feel jitter, fear and anxiety in their words. What are they afraid of?

collynzo2: I once got up on a crowded bus and offered the woman who was stood near me my seat, she said was a feminist, didn't want my seat and just wanted to be treated equally with men...
...so I headbutted the bîtch for farting in my face earlier!

slimyem: How far are feminists really going to go to prove their points?
How long is it going to take them to realize they can't win this feminism war?
Don't y'all get tired of trying to define and defend feminism? Till tomorrow comes, what feminists seek to establish can never be fully realized in Nigeria, Africa and the world over. The place of a woman will always be different somehow. Sad reality!!
I am female but in my next life, I'm coming back with a d1ck!! -a big fat one too.

Now this is genuinely funny
Feminists actually want doors to be opened for them

Arsenate: ooppss. This is gonna hurt Shollypoops and et al..

collynzo2: Real feminists will rebuke you for that. Maybe you're talking about the ones on Nairaland who just follow the bandwagon without fully understanding what it's all about.

ireneidiva: Rubbish male arguements. Women are now capable of doing most things u guys do. Live and let live.

[size=13pt]Does this make it any clearer??[/size]

iamsaved: @op, this Is my typical daily routine. .
I am a "married" women who is currently pregnant and have a toddler.
I work 8am to 6pm Monday to Saturday in a private organisation while hubby works with government.

5am: wakes up, says morning prayer, brushes my teeth and head straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast and lunch for my toddler baby.
6:30am, wakes baby up. brushes his teeth, feed him cereal, put him on the potty, stays with him to pet him to poopoo inside the potty (doesn't like using it). After cleaning him up, I bath him and get him set for his daycare.

7:20: I eat breakfast, tidy up the house, clean up an get ready for work.

I take baby to day care and proceed to work.

By the time I get to work, I am already 1hr late. This happens every blessed day.

By 5pm, pick baby from daycare and take him to my work place till I close by 6pm, then we go home.

Most times I go to the market from work to buy few stuffs.

As soon as I get home, I prepare and give baby food. Then sweat it out in the kitchen preparing dinner. depending on what I am cooking, I finish cooking most times between 8.30 - 9pm. serve hubby his food, eat mine, wash up all the plates. while cooking, every 3minutes interval, I take baby to the toilet or potty to weewee (he is still learning how to weeeee without pampers).

10pm: I bathe and go to bed. The struggle continues in the morning. same routine.

THIS IS MY HUSBANDS ROUTINE.
7:30am: he wakes up, go straight to clean up himself. Brush his teeth, baths and get set for work.

Eats breakfast and leaves for work.

7pm: he is at home, pings and chat and watch movies till dinner is ready. After eating, he bathes, continue watching movie, chatting and pings till 11pm.

Now I have begged, begged and begged he should assist me in the m
morning to bath our baby and dress him up for school but he refused. Said its a woman's duty to do everything in the home including solely caring for the children.

Infact last two weeks, I discusses this same issue with
him, explained to him how my boss has been complaining of my lateness. He shoul at least be considerate but he said i should go and ask other married women how to cope.

I dont have to go in too deep to expiain how thi his particular behaviour has affected me. I see myself now as a single mother! and oh I contribute financially to the home.

on sunday is busiest, church h, market, wash clothes, prepare soups and stew. no rest.

Cant afford to get a maid now. No much money!
Op if this is your idea of marriage, you need to think again. brb

ekwah:

haha I am glad you brought this up Shollypopz:

The man clearly has no respect for his wife. It is a classic example of an inconsiderate man with a very bad attitude and not a consequence of the ills of gender roles.In fact I don't think he believes in it, because if he did then his wife wouldn't be working for pay as that would have been his sole responsibility-(providing for his family). He is just lazy and is using very cheap excuses to justify his stance. Do you honestly think he would treat her any differently if there were no expectations on who was to do what in that house? I don't think so. Blaming the man's behavior on gender roles is rather simplistic.

I think all people (women and men) should be able to do some things by themselves- cooking,cleaning, and other basic things they need in other to get by daily. I however, still feel that there's nothing wrong with women and men playing different roles in the society provided there's equity in the treatments they receive. They should be able to share the responsibilities of the home such that no one is left with more than they can handle. It's really not that deep in my opinion.

If my wife wants to work for example, I see no problem with that. We would simply split the responsibilities between us. I would play my role as a man and she would perform hers as a woman. I can take some domestic chores, but there's just no way for example where I would play a sit-at-home dad while my wife is out there working.

hornipipe: Supporting gay marriage simply means you're trying to redefine what marriage really is.

P.S... I don't hate gays, I actually have friends who are gay.

interviewed by a radical feminist.
"Hello Madam, it's a pleasure to be here." I began.
"Please don't call me Madam, women are just as powerful as men in the working world, address me as so." She retorted. "I apologise. Hello Sir, it's a pleasure to be here

keeping their maiden name? why marry at all then? isn't marriage supposed to be 2 becoming one? this is the most hilarious article ever. feminists are confused!

hornipipe: And what's wrong in liking and keeping gays as friends?

Shollypopz:
Fair enough! I don't agree but at least you are making use of your brain.

The man used gender role as an excuse Ekwah. That story was to create a clearer example of how gender roles can create an unfair balance. It's funny that you talk like this when this the is the norm in most Nigerian homes.

You just said if your wife is working, you would split house chores. LMAO!! Pls tell me how many married Nigerian men that liked your post remember the last time they vacuumed.

Shollypopz:
Where is the link to where you got your statistics from?? Stop manufacturing bullsh1t in your hardly functioning brain, I'm sure I look more beautiful than the[b] unlucky woman that calls you babe[/b].

Shollypopz:
There's gender equality when 70% of working women are paid less than their male counterparts??
There's gender equality when Nigerians still see male children as better than female children??
There's gender equality and marital rape is legal in Nigeria and many other countries??
There's gender equality and gender roles still exist in homes??

Where do you live?? La-la land??

Gays of the same feathers gay together!
