crackhaus: You are assuming that I have an issue against 'patriachy' or think that the English Royalty is a 'win' for feminism or whatever. I have seen enough of life to know that most humans have cupboard lives and pick/drop whatever part of a cause/movement that suits them at the time and very few people are fanatic to any cause. I am just stating facts. For all you know, the Queen might even be a staunch anti-feminist and believe men & women are not equal. Someone on this thread even said Meghan marrying the Prince is a feminist move..... Well let's just say a divorcee was lucky enough to catch the eye of a Prince who doesn't give a damn about protocol. The fact that a woman can rule over them all within her constitutional rights shows it is not a patriachy. If Elizabeth had no brother, her father did not have brothers who had males? No male royalty in line to the throne who could seat on the throne? Is this Elizabeth the first queen England has produced? Can you imagine a Yoruba throne with a queen in power because she doesn't have brothers? The only time a woman can rule as a regent is when there is a dispute between ruling houses and during that period, she dresses like a man (trousers, cap) etc. and as soon as they sort out their issues, she steps down and the king takes over. I also gathered she cannot live with her husband in the palace and cannot be pregnant (cannot function as a woman) during the period. The regent is even addressed as sir, called kabiyesi and I think addressed as 'His Royal Majesty' 'His Highness' etc. Now that is patriachy. I don't know of other tribes as per conflict handling and if they have regents however I have never head of a Queen as per position and not wife of a king in Nigeria. Queen Elizabeth is a woman ruling as a woman, functioning as one. |

MissCokie: Ha this girl Close your laptop, run along and take a survey of how many working married men sit pretty while their husbands pay for rent, food and carry the financial burden of the home. Then re-read your thread/points and see of they make sense. If you have issues with slay mamas earning 50k and who think they are entitled to have weaves of 300k, Samsung S9+ and travel round the world, call me let's bash them together. Stop generalizing for all women and saying women have it easier, they all cannot change spanners, they all cannot do this/that. It is an insult. And stop running around these single boys who do not know where their next garri will come from and have no inkling about the workings of marriage. Sit down with responsible married men and women to learn. 2 Likes 1 Share |

majekdom2: Except you are on another thread, or referring to a different OP, you jeep helping her interpret what she is saying. Every post of hers states what she is saying clearly. Don't be her spokesman. |

oxygenlove: You might not have access to the companies; Just enter all the markets around you and count the number of women there. Next check all the small kiosk and tell me number of women you see. Next count the amount of caterers, hair dressers, tailors and cleaners you know. Then come back to me. |

babeosisi: Biko permit me to laugh. She and Beyonce are in the same boat. J-Lo is joinin them too. Stumbled on one of her latest songs 'Dinero' and I shook my head... How the mighty has fallen. A whole J-Lo behaving like a video vixen. I read one of Beyonce's speeches and she sounded daft (no offence). I will even take Kim Kardashian seriously over both of them. She and her clan don't claim to be feminists and they conduct their business and grow their empires without noise. 1 Like |

bukatyne:I am sue you know there are under privileged females who use tissue or clothes as sanitary pads. I mean this is something we can attribute to nature. It should be cheap enough, I mean less than 50 cents if not free. |

Mindfulness:So it's the women who face social stigma because they don't live up to the social standards set by men who qualify as good examples to be used when talking about feminism. I don't know if you realize this but every thing you've typed kind of proves that your feminism is just anti-men and nothing else. 1 Like |

bukatyne:We will not be able to have this conversation if you have still not differentiated between 'patriarchy' and a 'patrillineal' succession to the crown. Your example with the Yoruba monarchy helps my argument further - what they have is a monarchy that is strictly patrillineal (ergo, Ascension to the throne is ONLY by male descendants). The English have what they call royal houses, these houses are named after the males that start them - succession to the throne is not restricted to only the male members of that house. Now the proof you need that it is still a patriarchy is that a ruling house CANNOT be started by or named after a woman even if she is the Queen. An example is the present ruling House of Windsor which came into existence during the reign of Queen Victoria. She herself was the Queen with all power & dominion, and she came from the House of Hannover, yet immediately she got married to a prince from the German royal House of Saxe - Coburg and Gotha, she adopted the name by marriage ( that's what a patriarchal system is). The name Windsor was made up to appeal to the English people because Saxe - Coburg and Gotha sounded too German in a period when Nazi Germany had just started becoming popular. The only reason why this present Queen is still using the House of Windsor as her official royal House is because her husband Prince Philip is a prince without any kingdom, he had renounced his Greek and Danish princeship before marrying her and took the name of his uncle and mentor 'Mountbatten'. Your idea that because a Queen is in charge means it isn't a patriarchal system is flawed. Even in Nigeria, there have been Queens ruling and fighting wars in their kingdoms (Queen Idia of Benin and Queen Amina of Zaria are examples). Their reigns did not stop their kingdoms from being patriarchal at its core either. 1 Like |
