pickabeau1: i still dont get sheniquas points you are quoting what happened donkey years ago You hardly get any reasonable points on NL so I am not surprised Are there any careers in Nigeria devoid of women,please name one Where have you entered into and saw no women working there? I live in the USA and most of my friends are Nigerians Every single one of them work So who are these girls without ambitions that want to sit home and do nothing? I have younger brothers with wives the age of most posters here,they work and work hard 1 Like |

Typical from you.. its not new Once you start on a line of thinking.. you continue on it obtusely Let me humour you There are no careers where woman CAN perform Note this is different from women are working in all careers Next.. ok i saw this late The issue is not about women working.women in the previous generation worked and raised kids Its about a new breed of women who are not interested in working even though they have degrees and can work and just want to be settled maritally Crystal? sheniqua: 1 Like |

pickabeau1: Typical from you.. its not new Then change the topic to sexism,se,xual harassment and gender discrimination and it's general acceptance as the norm in Nigeria rather than talk of something else and have another in mind. Someone already told us entry girls in banks cannot get pregnant and marry as a rule and it is acceptable Tell us something we don't know |

pickabeau1: i still dont get sheniquas points you are quoting what happened donkey years agoapparently sheqina is being sentimental like I said being responsible is not a gender issue. some guys have got their flaws too , just that we have got more females with the lacadestical attitude. no one says career overr marriage . get married and yea , ur hubby can't still support you in whatever you wish for yourself. if he doesn't then he does not love you enough .his fear is you might be more successful than him . I haven't in my lifetime seen a woman who dumps her family just because she is now so successful. someone asked , how many women that are successful are in their husbands houses .I would ask are there no unsuccessful women that are divorced. so which is better being successful or living ur life for a man you don't love. 1 Like |

50calibre: Lmao @ the bold. These women are blood suckers. I need to start going out there to get their own, we're all equal and there's absolutely no excuse! I laughed hysterically when I saw some simpletons on this thread making excuses for women yesterday. Like seriously, aren't boys and girls raised the same way in naija? If the guys can go out of their way to better their lives and achieve success, why can't the women do the same? Why aren't guys sitting their ar.ses down, and waiting for a rich woman to marry them? Everything about these naija folks defies logic - and most of them think like villagers, to be honest. Those women need to start spending all the money they spend on bleaching cream and fake hair (Nigeria is one of the biggest markets for both products), to better their lives and get proper education. Lmao @ Safari being bipolar. She's still a kid, and still growing. I guess that's why she's confused. However, if you can sift what she has to say - she's good money. 1 Like |

CoCoLav: Well...no matter how career oriented I am, I know that raising a family will always come first. A career can come after my family. My father has always told me that a time will come when you have all you want and money will mean nothing to you. Only your family will remain and you will be blessed to have them.can I say I love you for this. |

A man and a woman ain't equal tho .... carrying a baby for 9 months ain't an easy task.... but no one is a lesser.The fact that he has got so much money doesn't mean a wife can't add to her society by simply engaging herself. some housewives atimes even put the responsibility of her own extended family on the man ....quite serious. |

Empress2014: I was in 400 level when my dad started asking who my fiancee was, I politely ignore his question, after that I told my dad I wanna go for my Master's after Nysc, his reply was "ile oko e lo ti ma se masters". Situations like this won't make some ladies think straight at all, pressure from our parents is somehow frustration, some parents needs to be enlightened is it that hard to get a man? if you dont start looking now, are you not delaying the whole thing? does getting a masters mean you must not start searching for who to marry or who will marry you? 1 Like |

Logicalmindy: How would they aspire to be great in life?, when their female Nigerian counterparts who are breaking records is being bashed of being loose, husbandless and prostitute e.g Chimamanda, Genevieve, Linda Ikeji, Rita Dominic etcChimamanda is actually married. So to people with the crab and slave mentality,career driven women whether married or single will always be lashed with hatred and jealousy. It's sad to say that among these foul mouthed people, a greater number of them are fellow women- FACT! 3 Likes 1 Share |

EbolaParasite:Exactly. Your life, your decisions. No one should decide how you should live your life. People will always talk even if you are an angel. As perfect as Jesus Christ was, a notorious criminal was chosen to be freed over him. He was jailed,beaten and killed like a common criminal. You'll face none of that for choosing a career path so just do it . Your female ancestors did it, why shouldn't you? |
