I Have Trouble With Men Holding The Door For Women - Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie by Amagite2: 3:06pm On Jun 07, 2018
From; Amagitesblog.com

Nigerian novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie appeared on “The Daily Show” with Trevor Noah on Wednesday, and she revealed she has trouble with men holding the door for women.

According to her, there are people who need that gesture/protection more, because there are lots of women who are stronger than men.

She also said she has issues with the idea of people saying women and children should leave first when there is a tragedy.

She said;

"I think holding the door shouldn't be gender, it's a lovely thing to hold the door, but we should hold the dorr for everyone. I hold the door for men and women.

I think the idea of holding the door for a woman because she is a woman, I have trouble with it. i am quite happy with people holding the door for me, but i hope they are not doing it because of this sort of idea of chivalry, because chivalry is the idea that women are somehow weak and need protecting, but we know that there are many women that are stronger than many men"

cheesy


I dunno what she want to define here.. But if holding doors giving her headache, then it's not surprising when she's having sex, she must be the one opening her hubby's trouser and put his THANG THANG in her nunu coz she's "strong" grin grin grin

Though I see nothing wrong in holding doors for a lady, my only problem is that men tend to over do things, especially when the female gender is involved.

I had a very nasty experience at an ATM cash point yesterday. After hours of waiting for the triumphant return of the network, it finally did and one pretty lady walked past the queue. She was able to buy the guy at the front with her smile. The ewu Gambia allowed her to withdraw without delay. I can't explain how furious I was at that moment.

But a guy who badly needed cash came forward to beg him and he bluntly refused. I asked him why he let the lady withraw and he said "Ahh.. na woman na." Imagine! "So because she's a woman, she deserves more preferential treatment than the rest of us?" He just smiled and said "My brother, you no go understand". I thought of slapping the evil spirit out of him, but then this could be a man with wife and kids at home. I just laughed it off.
