Ok..very interesting. I do agree with the first paragraph, however I don't think every profession is designed for females.
I'm gonna keep silent on the last couple of paragraphs..lol. But I absolutely see what u r saying.
Thanks

Them know themselves

You no well.

cococandy:
is that right?

Hello there.

Still a feminist?

Lady39:
Hi,
Was just curious to know what makes a woman a "feminist"? Is there a different definition in Nigeria as opposed to the American definition? Cause I got labeled one (by a nice young man) & want to make sure that people have the correct definitions...cause I don't consider myself one....

A lot of people in Nigeria don't actually know what feminism means to be honest, that's why you can be trying to have a serious and objective discussion about it and one arindin will come and trivialise the conversation and start talking about cooking as if we don't have more salient points to be focusing on

Catalin:
What if your honest opinion is not really "honest" or you said all these just to cover up. Well sha nothing join me.

Lol
Did you read the part where I said "being true to self"?

I do not know how to say something I don't mean, especially when it comes to being candid over topical issues.

Yes, there are times when you might strongly hold and preach a particular point of view. Over time, it might become watered down.

For example, there was a time I held the view that Hell is real. Very real.
I don't hold that view anymore...it's kind of different now.

If I were to talk about hell now, it would be very different from what I said when I joined this forum....

That of marriage remains unshaken till this moment

Good to know you have seen the beauty of marriage. It is obvious that most of the so called feminists on NL are just frustrated single ladies . The day a man proposes to them,marks the beginning of sabotaging feminism.

I have always imagined the beauty of marriage. I have made it expressly clear that I desire to be married.......To the right person.

Yet I believe that I am much more than a Ring and a title.

xynerise:



You are married? Wow! Congrats! I guess one of Tecno management was a special guest?

Yes, I went on sabathical....

Say whaa?

Tecno gini?

I'm not understanding you oooo

MizMyColi:

See you. A whole Tecno Ambassador? Quit pretending

Now I'm confused.

According to the experts I can't be one since I'm married and not a bitter single lady.

MizMyColi:

Of course. You can define who you are in your marriage by your action and support for the family. Them no marry you to come born pikin alone na

freecocoa:
You no well.

When and where did you say? cos that your thread depicts the opposite of what you said now, it more or less like you don't desire it, like it just something that might happen if it pleases you.

xynerise:

Which part exactly?

All the parts

Not just within the context of marriage alone.
But also to the world out there.

However, Charity begins at home.

Lmao girl they come up with all sorts

cococandy:

All the parts

There is truth in what I said na

No need for that, at least you are married now which is a good thing.

Catalin:

There is a need....if you wish to change the misconception.

1bkaye:

The thing is sometimes I can understand where they come from. The definition of feminism is that it seeks equality (social, and otherwise) between men and women.

For some of them marriage is an opportunity for the man to dump on the woman and have his family walk all over her. No better than a glorified 'housemaidship' where the woman should be eternally grateful that a man considered her worthy of bearing his name.

You can understand how that definition of marriage and feminism don't go hand in hand.
For those who marriage is a partnership and all the parties give respect as they expect, feminism is not mutually exclusive.

Congratulations ma. Wishing you a blissful marital life.
