Lmao... Coincidentally, we both submitted at exactly the same time, 8:48pm. cheesy

It's no longer a question of who stole the other's point, but that of who thought of it first...and seeing as my post is a little longer than yours, I probably started typing before you did. gringrin

Thief! angry

grin grin grin grin plagiarism You'll hear from my lawyers grin

But seriously, women need to be more assertive, live the talk and whine less...

A lady who came to rant on twitter was trending some weeks back. A guy hit her ride and they both got down from their cars to assess the damage and during their talk, the guy told her he couldn't discuss with her but he would rather speak with her husband since women know nothing about cars. She said she was dumbfounded and just stool still, unable to utter a word till they both drove away and the next thing she did was to come and rant online shocked shocked see me see gobe o

Instead of her to put her foot down with the guy, check the damage, display her knowledge of her ride or call her mechanic on the spot for help...or just do something, instead, she stood there like a zombie unable to utter a word thereby proving the silly guy right that women know nothing about cars. Na online she come dey rant dey look for e-supporters when she had the golden opportunity to make an impression and leave an unforgettable mark on the minds of everyone standing there. It's high time our lives reflect what we preach.

Infact, it was this lady I remembered when I typed what I wrote initially cuz this was about the same thing her e-supporters were saying on twitter.

You see them blaming juju for wandering blokoses shocked

As innnnnn...
She used juju on him.
Blokoses that has destined to wander will wander .

I thought women had the right to choose how they want to live their lives,no?

If she wants to beat up the mistress or kill both(husband and mistress) isn't it her right again?Abi the right is only when it's about fighting the man or spending time wailing over and over. undecided

So she can stay in a shitty marriage waiting for the man to die so she can fvck any nincompoop but she can not beat anyone she deems fit to? grin

If she is fighting for right,then she should fight for everything that is hers!

You don't have the right to beat up or kill any one whether married or not.

Let the law handle it.
You choose to stay in sh1t marriage. I see no problem in that but you don't have any right to kill the man nor his mistress.

You're right...less whinning, more living.

The thing is that at the end of the day, the guy was right as she probably didn't know anything about cars except refilling the fuel tank and topping up the radiator with coolant... cheesy

What the guy said was a deliberate attempt to rile her up and may not have being intended as a sexist remark.
Even if it was sexist, it is also truth that on average, most women know absolutely nothing about how their cars run - still the womens' fault as society did not stop them from learning about their darn cars... gringrin

i just came back from naija and I think the hardest thing to be in Naija is Poor embarassed

Really I would rather be Linda Ikeji in banana island anytime anyday than one of the thousands of men selling gala in go slow.

When all the people online who say ' Linda go and marry ' log out I will still be in my mansion while they are putting on their 'I better pass my neighbour 'generator.

I agree it's hard to develop a thick skin , but one needs to learn to not seek self validation from the typical naija society. A lot of naija people have an opinion about everything so it's pointless just do you.God knows how many 'you are not acting like a married woman ' I heard .I never knew marriage makes one grow wings or automatically confers 'Madam' title cheesy I reject that 'madam' title with every fibre of my being.

If you can't draw the line between being proud and having a healthy level of self-esteem/confidence, then we really shouldn't take this any further.

It's not even dressing o. Naija women are on point fashion wise if it's that one grin

I can't explain it sef it's just this 'air' a couple of people have. Taking themselves too seriously cos they are now married.

Note I am not saying people should not take marriage vows seriously before someone misunderstands my point.

That bit got me laughing as I can totally relate to it... cheesycheesy

During my adolescent years, it was my mother making such complaints as her husband my father was always away from home for long stretches due to work...consequently, I would be forced to drive & accompany the mechanic most times just to keep an eye on what he was actually changing or working on.

Now, it's a neighbour of mine complaining about the same thing...she would rather wait till her husband returns in 2/3 weeks so he can do the repairs himself if it isn't something that needs urgent attention. gringrin

grin grin can I blame your neighbor? One thing the corporate world has taught me, "outsource/delegate tasks as much as you can, but never be found wanting if/when you are called upon to do it". I had this friend that the driver claimed was very mean to him. Guess what the guy did one day, he parked the car on 3rd mainland bridge and said he was resigning shocked shocked he no work again. Just because he knew my friend couldn't drive sad Hahahaha she said she had to eat the humble pie to start begging the guy, at least make he drive her reach house. Nobody taught her to go for driving lessons. So for ladies, as much as we want to delegate some task to the men for sanity's sake or any other reason, we should still be ready to take up the responsibility anytime. The chicken can come home to roost anytime.
