how can you call for "justice and equity" when you don't believe in gender equality then? How can one promote justice and still claim that she doesn't believe in equality of all genders. Is justice not treating everyone equally before the law? you can never understand some people carefreewannabe

but the again this is Africa, equality means a whole new different thing. Gender Equality= women oppressing men.

crackhaus:

Lmao... cococandy please.

Emma Watson has distinguished herself in what?
Do I look like someone who watches/watched Harry Potter movies?
When Angelina Jolie is there to talk about life and choices, you're telling me to pay heed to a little girl? You must be kidding.

Let's not even go that far, how many successful and accomplished women in Nigeria do you hear preaching feminism?
Emma Watson now knows more than they do huh?

Talking about being distinguished, is Omotola not distinguished enough for y'all to listen to her?

Please don't make me laugh.

Mondisweets:

Misogynist means someone who hates or mistrusts women, yet you still talk about marrying one. if this is not stupi.dity at its peak I don't know what else is.

Mondisweets:
from now on i am following Omotola's footsteps. if i kiss different men onset just to make money and spend more time abroad pursuing my career than i do in my matrimonial home, don't come and call me names abeg!

crackhaus:

Genius, you don't know the difference between 'equity' and 'equality?'

crackhaus:
Nairaland pseudo-feminists, ask yourself:

- Why am I a feminist?

- Has there been a time I was oppressed or made to feel less than I am by a man?

- What is my purpose?

- What am I doing in the real world to promote feminism and equality?

Mondisweets:


our issue is that you are the ones who don't know the meaning of the "head of a family" to most of you, having a pennnis is all that's needed to qualify as the "head of the family". Our argument is that what determines that a person is the "head of the family" is his character actions and not his gender.

tmosco:


No d topic is omotala view on marriage and d bashing u all are giving her 4 saying her husband is d head.

crackhaus:

Genius, you don't know the difference between 'equity' and 'equality?'

Mondisweets:
i don't remember insulting her, so please show me where i bashed her

tmosco:


Read ur fellow feminist views about her.if u didn't bash her den my comment is not 4 u.

Mondisweets:


because i believe in social justice can truly be achieved by equal treatment of both genders



i might not have been affected directly but i doubt it means that i should not fight for the rights of those who are subjected to;

-discriminatory cultural and religious practices such as
*child marriages
*beliefs that a woman cannot succeed her father or husband after death
* deprivation of quality education of female child
*sexual, physical and emotional abuse of women

promoting justice and maintain peace and order in society

for now i only do community service, motivational speaking to high school children and small donations because that is all i can afford as a student.

Sophyrocks:


Me too o. omose xy is tha bomb. i love that woman die!! Her jaiye jaiye things. she sabi rock life oooooo. She sabi say variety is the spice of life. When i see say one man put im hand for her a$$ for red carpet, i say Yes, this woman sabi!! Omo! A woman that travels around the world? Mehn i love travelling o!!

At the bolded.. i dont believe in that and im sure most of the guys here dont subscribe to that.. so why not call it human rights

Mondisweets:
but please don't watch her reality show please otherwise we will call you a lazy, aimless woman

Mondisweets:
so because u don't believe it, it means that its not happening?

bukatyne:


Nashville, come and see what I was talking about

@thread, I thought this thread was created last year or earlier this year?

@OP: I do not believe her though. If she takes her word seriously, she should have stopped wearing skimpy clothes when her husband told her to. A woman who knows she is 'under' a man would not dress indecently or snap indiscriminate pictures with other men

The same Omotola NLers have rubbished is suddenly a role model

#I am a fan of hers anyways

bukatyne:


What is the place of a woman in the society?

pickabeau1:
Did u read at all


I said i believe females should have access to educational and empowerment opportunities like anyother person
As a matter of fact, all females i know of went to school and some topped the class as valedictorians

They should have the right to own property
Females i know own property

child marriage is not the best

This is basic human rights...

Mondisweets:
this goes on to show that you are clueless on what feminism is. feminists promote gender equality ( the right to equal treatment and protection before the law of all persons), which is a human right. so i don't know what you are going on about.

Misogynist2014:
There is a group of jobless women on Nl, some claim to live under the waters of Germany, some claim to live in shangisha, that's none of my business! They move around doing and the same thing everyday without monotony having effects on them.
The prayer of any operator(op) is for them to focus on his thread, at least he is sure of 5 paged. They shout and shout daily about feminism. If you want the latest Rihanna news, they are there for you, they cry and cry daily yet the woe of women worsen daily. They cry yet those that matter in Nigeria, the Mercy Johnsons, Omotolas don't believe in equality. They must be a real burden for their spouse!
Who are you searching for, I'm talking to you, yes you. I don't believe in equality, I'm a control freak! What are you gonna do about that? Cry me river! Women are subordinate and inferior to men, what is hard to grasp about that?

Sophyrocks:


That her show still exists? Pffffft. I hear its so fake and shallow.

See Joke Silva with much more stellar career and much more longer marriage, if not the longest marriage in nollywood

"I'm Not A Cooking Kind Of Woman & My Husband Is Fine With It' - Nollywood Actress, Joke Silva

http://www.naij.com/66593.html

The couple who have been married for 28 years are still very much in love and have remained inseparable.

Veteran actress, Joke Silva in a recent interview with City People magazine talks about why she doesn’t like cooking and how her husband doesn’t mind someone else cooks for him.

“I have never lied about this, I have never been ‘a doing the cooking kind of woman’. When my husband met me, he knew. He was the one who used to do the cooking because he is good at it. I used to do the cooking when I felt like. Sometimes, it comes out to be a huge success and sometimes a failure. Some years ago, I cooked vegetables and it was terrible and my husband is such a gem, he ate it like that. It is not as if my mum didn’t teach me.

For my husband, cooking is a therapy and for me it is a chore and yet he will always tell you that I look after him so much, I do that in other ways. We have somebody who does the cooking. I have taught them to cook the way I like and we have people who do the general cleaning.”
Olu Jacobs obviously doesn’t mind as his love for his wife as remained stronger as he was quoted in an interview saying marrying Joke was the best decision of his life.

cococandy:


hehehe. She's just lucky. Instead of her to keep quiet and enjoy her man,she's putting sand in the garri of those who have real inequality problems.

Because I have a husband who let's me be me,it would be unfair of me to diss those who actually have a reason to want changes because I don't even know what I would do if I were in their shoes. Maybe I would do worse.

Say the man had put a lid on her success or tried to stifle her growth,I wonder if she wouldn't be divorced now and bearing the title of evil divorced feminist.

Many actresses stopped actively featuring in movies and tours after their marriage. Those who tried against their husbands wishes ended up divorced because they couldn't keep up with the pressure from the men to quit. They couldn't handle the insecurities that kept popping up especially when they were away for weeks in other states or countries spending nights with men their husbands don't know. Such a thing can hinder a career tremendously.
These other human actresses tried and couldn't work it out because their human husbands understandably couldn't endure such tensions in the relationships and they finally break up after trying to work it out unsuccessfully.

Now because she's very lucky to have a man who ignores what other men can't ignore and stayed married to her despite scandals and every other thing,she's suddenly the perfect woman and super mom.

How women can be insensitive to others while trying to answer mrs goody two shoes.

omo t that her husband goes grocery shopping for

These guys can't cope with a woman half the weight of omotola. See them jubilating
