Honestly, i dont know what to say again. Ofcourse there will be a few.

Tune in to discovery once in a while and watch world war stories. You will hear that women were not allowed to fight in the war because they are women.

Women don't have it easy in today's society. They have never had it easy. If you dont see that, then i fear i am wasting my time.

Women don't compete with men in sport for a reason...

"my people talk am say even for beer parlor Oga dey."
" There is hierarchy even in heaven"
Having said that, respect for women is desirable, compulsory and good but feminism got it wrong when it says the man and the woman are the same! They are not equals, they are complements! A man can never be a woman, he was not made to be so and cannot be.. gays are idiots. A woman can never be man, she was not made to be so.
Two people cannot both drive a car at the same time! So the woman and the man must understand their role and places in the marriage arrangement. Any attempt at exchange of roles will definitely lead to disaster and unhappiness. If the man is equal to the woman, na gay marriage be that o. Afterall no woman wants to marry a sissy man and no man wants to marry a fellow man or even tomboy.
The religious arrangement of God being the head of the man and the man being the head of the woman in a relationship predicated on love is a perfect arrangement and so far the best.
Feminism na trash. I want masculinism to start so that woman go dey toast man, pay bride price, protect, give man belle, tolerate nagging etc

@ the emboldened, it's not true.
Employers accept applicants based on what they can offer, not on the premise of gender. haba! where do u get your facts from? smiley

Like I said, it's getting less now.

And like I also said, men are most likely to be chosen

And also, I wasn't talking about large scale companies that are public figures. I am talking about the not-too-large ones that no one really notices.

@the emboldened, it's not true & u know it.
It's a well know fact that men are stronger than women, it doesn't apply to humans alone, always try to watch natgeo adv, u'll understand what I mean. U can't compare the strength of a lion to that of a lioness, or a cock to hen, it's natural, i think u should rather blame God for making women the weaker sex, not man.

People refer to men as strong because they are truly strong & brave. Take samson as a case study, that's is if u're a christian, he killed a lion, all the battles that were fought in the bible & olden days, nigeria civil war, world war, libya fight, etc were led by men, even till date.


they didn't fight because they were told not to. Not because they couldn't. Tune in to discovery and watch a bunch of WW episodes. Women were told to stay at home while the men went for war.


I can categorically tell u only men constitutes the soldiers that are fighting in the northern part of nigerian. Despite the spate of wars in africa, have u ever seen women fighting? Only male soldiers are deployed to battle fields, because by nature, women aren't tough, if u're a wrestling fan, how will john cena vs any lady sound to u? Saying men are stronger & more brave than women isn't demeaning at all, it's the truth, & no one can dispute that.

Most of the things we are using today were invented by men, technology, architecture, medicine, engineering, law, politics etc, men were at the fore front in ensuring these things came into reality. Even women acknowledge the fact that they are the weaker sex, but taking advantage of their weakness is what they should be agitating against, not debating which sex is stronger......


It's not about who is stronger physically, it's about giving them an equal platform to prove themselves. A platform which is just starting to exist with the feminism movement.


But are u sure u're a man? Honestly u sound like a woman with so much hatred for men. smiley

What has hatred got to do with anything? I am saying you should give women a chance to prove their capabilities, how does hatred for men fit? It's not a competition.

My brother, if it were to be earlier, I would have been on your part of the fence.

Men and women are not equal, we are DIFFERENT.

Very different.

Apples are not equal to oranges, even though they are both fruits.

We possess strengths they don't, and they others we don't.

In certain abilities, they leave us in the dust, but in others, we eclipse them.

Seriously, it's like I am arguing with a wall on NL.

Feminism doesn't saw women are stronger than men, it says women can be as strong as men.

Feminism doesn't say women are smarter than men, it says women can be as smart as men.

All they want is a chance to prove themselves. That is the feminism movement.

1. That was a matter of economic-efficiency. Only poor or illiterate men didn't send their daughters to school. The men so sent were expected to, in fact, train up they're younger ones through school and cater for miscellaneous needs. Does it not occur to you that these men sent to school were being groomed for a life of servitude? Sent to school only to provide money for their younger ones? Bottom line, every one has/had a role and responsibility to fulfill.

2. Who's stopping women from stepping up? Aren't there women in all conceivable professions already? Any school depriving females admission on basis of gender?

3. Oh, really? You said feminism is about equal rights for both genders; now you say men should shut up? Which is it, mister? Is feminism for women alone or for both genders? Or are you saying women are to be more equal than men? If not, then, what affects a woman should equally affect a man, should it not? Abo, wetin be the meaning of equality?

4. Refer to point 3.

5. Wrong. Wives are taught to submit to their husbands. There's a distinct difference. Is Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala going to submit to Emeka the vulcaniser? grin

6. I would like proof of this having easier. Thanks for your cooperation.

7. And that makes it right? That only highlights a flaw in the system. Nobody should be racist to anyone else. Duh.


An oppressed person does not need to become an oppressor to seek redress. They might get restitution if it's practicable, otherwise, they could put an end to the oppression and move on. Becoming an oppressor is not sufficient justification for having suffered oppression, mister. Perhaps, people on that reddit page are dummies who couldn't spot argument fallacies and deal with them accordingly. And yes, an issue is about everyone involved not just the perp or the victim, everybody.

Let me ask you this question.

Do you think women and men are given equal opportunities to prove their worth Looking at history and today?

If your answer is yes, then you must be living under a rock.

If your answer is no, then do you think it's fair that they be given the same opportunities?

If your answer yes, then that if feminism

If your answer is no, then you are part of the problem in today's society.

So men just so happens to be qualified in every job opportunities? So why aren't many women being hired in male dominant fields such as construction to name one?
Lol, women! They must grumble, why aren't men complaining about women having dominance in the nursing profession?

I wouldn't be wrong if I say medicine is even more intellectually taxing than architecture & engineering, but we have more female doctors, lawyers than female engineers, architects, & the female doctors, lawyers are more active in their fields than the female architects & engineers.

Construction is stressful & back-breaking, most female civil engineers, architects don't end up to practice their profession, not because of discrimination, but because of the back-breaking nature of these profession, of which construction is top on the list. We have many female lawyers doing well in their field, because law is intellectually more demanding, likewise medicine.

But in construction, physical strength is required, if u say is an africa thing, watch the construction of most skyscrappers & bridges, u hardly see women on site.

A female architect was assigned to execute a full day to day project, but she fell ill when the project got to a certain stage, because of stress, & a male was designated to complete the project. It has to do with physical strength, because construction is stressful & back-breaking. I don't think having lesser women in the construction industry has anything to do with discrimination, I think it has to do with the back-breaking nature & stress...
