That might be the problem, maybe you can help me out what is your concept of feminism?

Here:
candy:


Feminism is a set of ideologies that seek equality in the opportunities available to both sexes. Feminism is about fighting social structures that restrict and discriminate against women.

Feminism is not saying women should be paid more than men; it is about being judged on the quality of your work and being paid accordingly regardless of sex.
Feminism is not saying men should not head organisations, feminism is saying let him head the organisation because he is the best . Feminism seeks fairness to both sexes, not in anyway anti men, just pro women.
Besides, feminism is not just about women's rights, it seeks equality for all, even

A true feminist will not hesitate to pay. A radical feminist will see no reason why men are listed, feminists are listed and ladies are listed.
because the other ladies who aren't feminists have a religion of their own.. Maybe the world hasnt come up with a name to give to women who aren't feminists.

In my office, I prefer a man being the boss, you know why? Because a man is more stable emotionally than a woman. Its not about her qualifications this time around, its just about gender differences. There are things a man can let go and see as not important but a woman , feminist or not, as long as she is a woman will not even let go.. Her emotions will cloud her sense of judgement.

There is a reason why you are a woman, read your bible and find out instead of fighting the cause for female existence

No need for this.. Enough with the feminist bashing already guys, it's getting to more of mockery than constructive criticism, and that's lame.
but much of feminism is criticism& bashing of d male gender. Is that constructive?

If feminism is only about the EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY everyone should be a feminist and proudly would refer to myself a feminist.


There is some gains to be made to allow women to do whatever they want to do as long as no one is stopping them.

Hmmm...believe me, I am not much of a feminist and that was why I actually said people don't understand the concept of feminisn in Nigeria. If you go by feminist theories- radical, liberal, cultural and all that, feminism won't really work around here because religion will always be a big factor.

These different types of feminism is what people don't grasp because they have different views. If you call yourself a true feminist, you will frown when women are given soft landing and tested like a weaker vessel(which the bible calls us). I am a gender person, I want equal opportunity for both sexes, even the queer ones I respect their rights to life if they stay on their lanes! I respect the right of children...but I am a Nigerian and a realist- hope you get the drift.

Y'all are making it seem as if 2000 is a big money for a lady to pay.

The reason why parties allow ladies to come in free is not because they think women can't pay their bills but so men will be attracted to the party knowing lots of ladies will be there.

Besides female feminists are also ladies.
We have males that are feminists BTW.

No my brother, I'm a realist and I know it's not possible at least for now. Nature has divided us along biological lines and religion is playing a major role.

Most ladies who say they are feminists preach it but don't act it. For you to demand equal rights, you have to be an icon for someone else to give you that respect.

can you imagine.. Has there ever been a party in Nigeria where a gatefee was imposed on both sexes and both turned up in a reasonable ratio?

Women need empowerment and not equality.

As a woman, the moment you identify with this societal craze called feminism, that's the moment you lose all your senses.

Trust me, 95 percent of those self-acclaimed feminists will automatically turn to ordinary ladies that day. In fact, they will even be the ones sharing table water to the men.


You contradict yourself. Feminism is about empowerment. Inside the empowerment are many strands of struggle: complementarity, equality, radical individualism, sisterhood support etc.

You misunderstand feminism only when you are truly uninformed and unelightened. There are many aspects of it that are good, even equality struggle has its pros and cons, with both positive sides and otherwise. The aspect that one would complain about is radical feminism. Radical feminist does.not feel she needs a man as husband, she will pay for sex and paybto have a baby, and does not disturb herself with maternal roles. Some of them in the bid to prove themselves keep a man at home and feedsnhim while he performs roles culturally allowed for women.

However, it is insecurity that influences most of our negative perceptions about feminists.

Of course as long as;

You don't expect women to get paid for less work they do compared to men

You don't force company to hire women 50-50
to men just because they are women

You don't expect women tennis players who plays 3 sets and have less than a fifth viewers to men tennis players who plays 5sets to get paid the same

You don't ask for 50-50 CEO of top companies as men and not 50-50 cobblers, road side mechanics, vulcanizers, scavengers, cement unloaders, soak away diggers, drillers, prisoners etc.

You don't ask for 50-50 political post and not 50-50 political assassination victims.

True feminism can't thrive in Nigeria, Nigeria is a patriarchal society. I'm a Nigerian, I want gender equality but at best I will call myself a rights activist because I understand the concept of feminism. We are just not ready for it and the male chauvinists are using it to their advantage. I pray we get to the level of Iceland or even Rwanda some day.

Patriarchy, another word feminist like to throw around like it's something that has any real meaning or advantage to it. The belief in God the father is patriarchal too right? Maybe we should just get God a wife and have the creator share equal responsibility and power with her and everything will be perfect

Asking for it is not really the feminists agenda...it is supposed to come naturally if you have the qualification, not because you ask for it...it's not a pity party.
Re: Party Invitation That Is Giving Feminists The Equality They Want by cronsberg: 6:13pm On Jul 15, 2018
Guys should check out "men are better than women .com" to see the bull shitzz in feminism. All the bridges, cars, planes, trains, roads, buildings, power plants, phones, computers, ships, stadiums, pipelines, power lines, mines, factories, etc are build by men. If men were to vanish from earth today, the world will turn to stone age era overnight as women wouldn't know what to do. But if women were to vanish, men will simply invent artificial wombs and move on with life. I will start taking feminism serious when i see women wearing a hard hat and go into a coal mine, carrying guns and go to the war front, working in quaries and shipyards, working as lumber jacks and deck hands on ships, mining iron and working in steel plants, climbing and repairng 30,000 volt power lines, being window washers of 70 story towers, working as rig hands on an oil rig far off in the atlantic or north sea etc all these are man jobs that females simply can't do. Its just preferential treatment they want, not equality

This comment is interesting because for most "feminist", feminism is just a creed or a social fraternity. Something you can put on an take off at will. More so, understanding that the African loves foreign ideologies and beliefs because they lack confidence in themselves. Feminism is a foreign ideology that would not benefit Africans(as practiced today), the sad part is most African women see it as an opportunity to get back at men. May all of you gain wisdom.

There will always be battle of the sexes but a time will come when a girl child can choose not to stay in the kitchen with the mum to learn cooking, and still get married to the man of her dreams and live happily ever after tongue
