bright007: [color=red]Hey don't misunderstand my post!By virtue of å man being the head of d family,he owns everything including d woman.I say this because d man's command must be the woman's wish most of d time whether she likes it or not.
so remove sentiments and be down to earth.

That is d problem with d society. Women r always materialised. A woman should be a man 's patner,not his property or servant. We r no longer in d dark ages where men live in caves with nothin on

If a woman keep having female children only, the man SHOULD never think of marrying another because of that. I am 100% against that, after all, biologically it's the man's chromosome that determines sex of a baby. Nevertheless, it's 100% understandable why a man will crave, pray, wish and prefer male child to female child, 1001 reasons abound. Both sex are very important but a male child is still far more important than a female child. Forget that stupid mentality of "we're now in 21st century", "this is a modern world" we're no longer in dark world" bla bla bla in women, that makes them always wanting to equal themselves to a man, and that remains their undoing till today. Presently i have two beautiful daughters now and i love them with my life but am seriously praying and ready for fasting that God will give me a male child next.

This is another major reason why married women ,now bear their father's name along side the husband's name.. i prefer both sexes. Either the male or female child can be very useful in future, if well trained. its not just bearing a male child..

before u re in a hurry to quote Bible passages, understand them properly. Gen 1:26 refers to male and female (man is a generic term) that's why we re called d sons of God, brethren etc. Gen 3 was referring to the consequences of the fall of man (Adam and Eve). so dear, Gender inequality didn't originate from God.

Women were made for companionship. Men are core idealogists. If Not for men, life would still have been in the stone age. The best a woman can do is support our ideas.

Noo i am not saying a man
shouldn't be worried cos he lack
a male child neither am i saying
that a man shouldn't remarry to
get one(which wont b my
decision if i have no son though)
bt am trying to say both genders
are equally important both from
a moral and religious point of
view. We r in d age when
civilization has entered and we
cant continue 2 think like our
fore fathers in primitive days
were women were second class
beings just created to serve men
and d birth of a female baby wz
treated as a disgrace to the
father. Evn d bible and quran nvr
said man was more important
than woman.

@Op

It is becos ur father was a male child of his father! The truth is that 95 per cent of us Men will like to have a male child no matter the level of education and will now accept our faith if it is a female child.

I will be very proud playing golf with my son, will be more fulfilled when am old for my son to take over my empire!

In fact,my wife is very comfortable now in my house cos our first issue is a boy. So no pressure, had it been it was a girl,hmmmm though I love her but there will be a little war cos we are not of the same tribe!

We may say it is a decision between you and ur spouse to get married even witout the approval of your parents or relations, let me tell you; it is a warfare and it takes only God's grace to be successful in the marriage! But the day the woman gives them(relations) a male child! She will be considered as one of them,trust me! But if na so so so women, she is on her own.....though very few expections!

DonHummer: 1..a man carries on d name of d family
2...on the averag men are more smarter dan women....

hahaha oh puhlease if only point number two was true. A new study has shown that during motherhood a womans intelligence actually increases: their memory increases as well a learning abilities.

Sadly in India women still stress themselves over having boys over girls. Some even abort ther pregnancies if there's the slightest thought of the child being a girl which is ridiculous.

Some may believe the issue has died out. However it is still alice in many countries.

odumchi: The thing is that, traditionally, people have usually preferred male children over female children because a male child would continue the father's lineage and legacy.

However, that was in the days when women weren't as "equal" to men as they are today. Nowadays, most people don't mind anymore because women are as useful as men.
even in nowadays women are not equal as men

Not to much though, most women carry their husbands names after marriage; But I have been seeing women do compound names where they will combine their maiden name with their husbands last name, examples I can think of Hillary Rodam Clinton, Jada Pinkett Smith, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, and etc

I'm not even talking about keeping it as a middle name jor. Make she keep it as her official last name.

Keeping it as a middle name is a step sha.

I think Omotola and the rest kept their middle name because that's the name they're popularly known for.

well this is just based on the ones I have heard of in the media, one time a lady was on fox news and she had a long compound name and when they asked her about it she said her mother is a feminist and refused to have her fathers last name so her parents combined the mothers last name with the fathers last name as a compound last name for their children(she is one of the them).

I have heard in a documentary once that some feminist that are married refused their husbands last name and retained there's, and their husbands were fine with it based on what I understood from it

Hmm, who marry these women who refused their husband's names just for feminist reasons?

I understand it as a sense of "self" and sense of respect for one's "family name" esp if she's the only child, but because "she's equal to a man"? That's stretching it. It doesn't even make sense.

You have a point, lol; many men in the western world for some reason don't mind it, they are a minority of course, sometimes I have noticed these women control their husbands to, not all but a few do. I guess there will always be men for those type of women
