Lamborghini: You women are jokes.
You want independence before marriage then after that what happens?
Will this independence plan extend to marriage or is it temporary? Will you always keep taking care of your needs yourselves and not ask your husbands for house money or shopping money after he pays your bride price like cattle and takes you under his name as his dependant?

Fish brained clowns with their on and off independence.

Thanks for the insult smiley
And did you just refer to ALL the women in your life as fish-brained clowns?

Dancing skelewu. You are so blessed. Your future will be so bright. When challenges come and you feel like the easy way would have been easier angels will carry you through.
May your path always be bright
May favor find and overshadow you
May doors of success always open for you
May the world of your hands be rewarded

May you find a man deserving of gold
May time wasters and opportunists be far from your path

In the country I live in, children as early as 13 can start work to earn some extra change. This is not even a 3rd world country.

I want to believe there are Ladies in Nigeria who work to support themselves and their families. Beautiful!

However this does not mean that it is compulsory for every lady to be independent. The most important thing in my opinion is that women are able to work like their male counterparts. That's good enough for a society. Now making it compulsory is what I would not prescribe...

Great.
My cousins in the States start work in high school ( They work in malls and restaurants)
But some of the undergraduates I know in Naija do not even know that they can actually do part time jobs to augment whatever their parents give to them.
I am not saying every woman must work, all I am asking is that ANY woman who can not fend for herself without being considered a LEECH and LIABILITY should get up and get something to do.

Lamborghini: Of course it isn't compulsory for them to be independent. It isn't even ideal. Men go out and fend for the family and provide for them while women depend on their husbands, not the other way round and that's why WE LEAD THE HOUSEHOLD, but the fishbrains can continue lying to themselves on this thread so they can sleep at night. It's allowed.

Sorry to digress but tell the non fish brains to hurry up and make Nigeria a first world country!

tell them o,i just find it hard to open my mouth to ask for recharge card and stuffs like that.I'd rather roll on the floor to beg my mum for money or recharge card than ask from a guy.I feel terrible when I read comments from some guys who probably bought 100 naira card about the female gender its so annoying abeg!!#teamworkforyourownMoney

This is my opinion.

I used to listen to men whine about Nigerian women being gold-diggers and most times I don't blame the men.
When an entire generation of women do not know the value of hard-work and working with ones hands to make ends meet, then there is a problem somewhere.

Dear Naija woman,
There's no written law that men should buy you recharge cards, buy you sharwamah or take you shopping. Any man that choose to spend on you only does that because he has money to spend in the first place. And last I checked, the freedom to earn money isn't restricted to the male gender alone.
We know how easy it is, to paint your face all day and then dress up to meet a man who will spend on you. But what I don't understand is how we all grew up believing that we can not make our own money. How? Why? Who told you that you can't work to take care of your needs.

Pls, the good men I have met do not want intellectual and physical liabilities.
What happened to the days when our MOTHERS worked hard to care for the family?

Every time you wait for a man to credit your phone, buy your meals, change your wardrobe and cater to your every need.. Then, you have also given them the licence to talk down on you and treat you like a nonentity with nothing to offer.

For those of you who think you can get whatever you want from men without lifting a finger to better your own life. All I can ask is, for how long? How long will you remain brain-dead and dependent.

Get up and find something to do pls, those women out there who engage in petty trade are not silly.
There's actually no pride in being jobless and showing off expensive clothes and items especially if your parents are not wealthy enough to support your life-style.

Whether you are a young school leaver,
An undergraduate or even if you haven't had the chance to study in any school. Just get a job and earn your own money.
Permit me to say this- If you don't find it demeaning to spread your legs in the east and west direction just to get #5,000 from a man, then you shouldn't find any job too demeaning.

*Go to pure water factories and other factories and apply as factory workers.
* Make small chops at home and distribute to Northerners to sell for you.
*There are a zillion small businesses in Lagos alone. Go and apply as sales-person.
*Go and learn a trade.
*Apply at mushroom schools to teach children.
*Study well in school too. So you can get a good job upon graduation.
* Take a walk round your community, you will surely get something to do.
*Apply to learn a trade.

You will not be arrested if you start buying your own recharge cards tongue and paying your own bills.
Thank you.


*N.B: If you find this post offensive, forgive me. There are a lot of women out there working for their upkeep and being responsible.
And there a whole lot of women who think moving from one bar to the other, dressing to kill and getting money from men without lifting a finger to work is the norm.
It is not normal. Pls, if you are in this category, go and find work to do. Even if your salary is not much, at least you can buy little things for yourself.
How can you be proud of using high-end phones and expensive stuffs that your folks can't afford, yet you are jobless and without a source of income.. Pls, what sort of 'invisible' business earn you so much money?

As for me, I find extreme joy in knowing that I can take care of my needs when there's need to do so.
And when men spend on me, they do so out of freewill and not cos I have to beg or pay in kind.
Hard work doesn't kill smiley
