This woman should kuku go and do sexx change and become a man. I tire for all this her ranting. If she was still single and leaving in her parents house I seriously doubt if she will still have mouth to be saying all she says now.

Now she has it all husband, children, career, she's now forming I too know.

Nigerian men reacting angrily like they hold doors for their women, anyway this one na misyarn from Ms Adichie, we should be focusing on better things like voting buhari out who is even a misogynist.

Women are trying so hard to do everything a man can do... meanwhile they are losing their value.
cos women aren't meant to do everything a man can do... they were actually meant to do everything a man can not do.

Ms Adichie certainly has academic sense given her literary strides but thats where it ends. I doubt if she has common sense

I've been listening to a lot about this gender equality stories and all. Some of the points have meaning, most others, I just find baseless.

When I come across things like this that aunty Amanda has just said, it makes me wonder. If women are to be painted so masculine, how then can men show so much love and affection

I shouldn't hold my gf or wife in my warm arms and stroke her hair because she is female? I should do that because we're in a relationship and I can do it to my male friends too?

I'm tired!

Women need to be cared for. They're fragile beings, not minding their drama at times which is peculiar to womenfolk though. If Chimamanda thinks otherwise, she should be allowed to do everything by herself, including washing her car, cutting the grass and so on. Yeye geh

This is no longer feminism, this is craziness. What happens to being a gentleman? How does it even look to go with your wife on a date and leave her to pull the door, pull the chair and co. Same applies to every woman out her, treat her right. It's common sense. This lady thinks she's all sufficient. Nonsense

did your grandfather do this nonsense for your grandmother?

Very soon she'll question why women have to be the ones to carry pregnancy for 9months and why can't men share by carrying the pregnancy for at least four and half months too. angry

This one has lost her way.

You didnt get her point.

She is trying to say that whenever men hold the door for women, they are indirectly implying that women are the weaker sexxx - something she wants to foolishly challenge and fight with every fibre of her being. smiley

Nevertheless, women remain the weaker sexxx whether she likes it or not.


That's wasn't her point.

Actually she's a true feminist its quite sexist even though it favours her, not all sexists act are harmful esp paying for dates just that most Nigerian ladies pick selective sexisms that doesn't pay them and embraces the ones that pays them.

That's biological she's questioning the act which is right, let mW bust your head, if a woman punches you and you don't punch her back because she's a woman that's equally sexist too especially if you really want to punch her but because she's a woman, though the escape route for that argument is that you shouldn't be punching anyone.

Sensational headline!

She said holding doors shouldn't be a gender thing. We should hold doors for each other, or anyone that needs such help...not just because she is a woman!

She went on to add that, in the event of danger---the first set of people to be evacuated should be those that are weak/unwell. Not only women and children.

Protect those that need protection, irrespective of their gender.



Lol in danger, and women and children are being evacuated. Will you stay back and say no, you'll be evacuated with the men? grin grin grin

It should be a gender thing along with anyone that needs help. The fact is that no woman wants her husband to be treating her the way he treats his guys. It not everyone u are nice too, we are human. It just like a rich man to spend his money on everyone becoz it is d humane tin to do. Asking people to not do something unless dey do it for everyone is stupid and unreasonable. First starts small then graduate to d next level.

Hypocrites everywhere, upon all these never seen her jumping out and holding the car door for her husband or her driver!

These apart, I love her scholarly work and name mentions that she is bringing to Nigeria....but, I still believe in the notion that, you should practice what you preach.
