See them.. Fighting for the justice of the girl child. Yelling all
sort of crap on TV about gender inequality and other trash
talks that i can't take anymore.


I wasn't there when you bore your daughters.
I wasn't the one who made them do all the kitchen work while your sons were busy laying around the house like sick dogs.
I wasn't the one who constantly reminded them that someday they gonna be a secondary subject to their husbands.
I wasn't the one who always made them feel that they don't
need to study hard. Infact they don't even need to study at all cuz no matter how much they read a man's gonna come pick them up someday, and all that will be a waste of time, money, and knowledge.
When they clocked 30 years of age, I wasn't there to tell them ugly stuff like "As old as you are, you're not yet married",
"what are you waiting for?, do you want to marry your own
father?".
Even when they got married and there was no child in the
house after sometime, you started to feel she was barren.
Forgetting the fact that the man also has a role to play in that aspect.
She took her marital issues online, hoping to find some help
there since she felt its rather disgraceful to discuss with
anyone physically, your only comment on her post was shiit
like "you're a disgrace to womanhood". Making her shy away from sexuality, hiding her sexual life from the whole world
including herself cuz she feels its not right for a woman to even have sex in the first place, not to talk of talking or even thinking about it.
You made the life of your daughters so poor, that all they had
to think about is marriage and submission to a secondary god (their husbands) from as early as age 16 or 17. That they cannot stand alone cuz they're too weak and always need men to represent them. Protect them. Talk for them and even decide for them.
Implying that the male gender is superior and supreme. And
suddenly now you want all these things to change? By what
means, magic?

So you see, from the start of their lives this is what you have
been teaching them. Making them from a very early stage,
realize they ought to be a man's tool. Telling them that they have nothing much to offer in the future apart from being a
man's life companion and bedmate, to bear and carry his
children and to take care of the family.

......now that's feminism!

Start the Gender equality from there where you're standing, cuz every little thing you impact on these little souls (children) in our society counts.

I rest this case for now.

That's just it mate.
This whole ish starts from the very first hour a female child is born into this world. And everyone one of use in the society contributes to it gradually until these little ones mature.
I'm the only son out of 3 children. As the last also, I had the right to hit my elder sisters whenever I like.. just cuz I'm "the man". The trash didn't stop until I reached around 6.


As children then, my elder ones thought it was the right thing cuz... The grown people we first knew made it feel right.

All this is just to say.. gender inequality starts from the grass root of a child's life. If you take away fear from her view and train her like she's some kynda Venus god or Athena, she's gon grow up having a self will stronger than that of a man even.

dis again!!! D feminists will b fightin for gender equality till d end of tym. It has bn like dat frm the beginnin...adam first, then eve made frm him, most responsibilities was on adam. Gender inequalities is embedded in our religion, cultures, mentalities...fight n preach all u want, men always have a headstart over women. It doesnt mean some women cant rise above d obstacles to reach d peak but it is an individual fight n determination, most women r too weak to try. If u r a woman, then stop all these equality talk n walk the walk. The gender inequality will always b der

Don't you think it's rather not wise to involve God or religion in such societal issues? I'm not an atheist. I'm not a woman. I'm a man but I swear I know how that life feels cuz my whole life have been revolving mostly around them.

So God creating animals before adam also means something too? That means animals are higher than humans simply because they were created before humans?

Gender equality or gender inequality is going to ginger strife for mastery. In as much am not in support of seeing a woman or the female folks as a subordinate being in the homo sapien and also as secondary being in the general public. I still strongly believe that when it comes to the family level. there is nothing to debate about, there is no gender equality in the family. The man is head while the woman is a HELP MATE not HOUSE HELP. It simply implies that the head is not useful without the body but the head bears a larger part of the sensory organs: the eyes, nose, tongue, ear including feeling that is jointly and largely shared by the remaining parts of the body.

I wont teach my daughters to be dependent and feel inferior to any man but i will teach them to respect and submit to their HUSBAND as instructed by the HOLY BIBLE as two things have always worked from ages past which are HUSBAND, LOVE YOUR WIFE and WIFE SUBMIT TO YOUR OWN HUSBAND.

We can shout gender equality from age to age but the truth is that our gender are not equal but that does not in any way diminish the quality and attribute of a woman as we are MATE and but one is HEAD and the other is HELP...

Yes he didnt create man from animal. but the guy i quoted focused on who was created first before the other. Therefore, he believes whoever was created first is higher than the other. that means animals are higher than humans.

When God created Eve from Adam by using a rib, what does that tell you? what did adam say when he saw eve? Read that portion so that you can know how men are meant to view women.
