oluafam:
From the tone of your words, I can feel u lacked some motherly care or maybe she wasn't a good wife to your father(no insult intended). Sorry darling, there are plenty of good and virtuous women out there.

It's a pity u are unlucky.

But I had seen it all before. Nigeria is the worst place to be a woman. This is a society that sneers at her female gender. Most men have bigoted view about them. Some even treat their wives as subordinates. Or worse, even. A woman is almost less than human here. It is also sometimes shocking how other women join such prejudiced men to perpetuate these biases. For example, a woman is more likely to condemn another woman over her choice of dressing. In our society, one often hears sexists use derogatory terms such as ‘’ordinary woman’ or ‘’common woman’’ to describe a female. This perception has metamorphosed into more dangerous forms of intolerance against the womenfolk. The chauvinism against women, one of which was blatantly displayed on the BRT bus was nothing new. In Lagos, like in most parts of Nigeria, women are subjected to more terrible forms of degrading treatment. For example, we all grew up to learn of the popular saying that ‘’a woman’s place is in the kitchen’’.

In spite of major achievements by the women liberation movement of yore and the feminist voices that have pushed women issues into public discourse, the glass ceiling has turned steely. In politics, corporate boardrooms, and on the streets, women are still the subject of ancient stereotypes that reinforce the ‘’weaker s*x’’ myth. You often find people, especially men, use certain derogatory terms that strengthen
these beliefs. For example, a man who is not ‘’sharp’’ while driving in Lagos is said to be ‘’driving like a woman’’. Expressions like “why you dey behave like a woman”, is common. A woman who owns or drives a new car is the envy of others: “don’t mind her, no be man buy the car give am, ashawo.” In the eyes of many, a woman cannot build a house, own a brand new car without a sugar daddy or aristo somewhere doling out the cash. An uncle recently told me not to trust any woman! “Ah, no trust any woman o-even your wife’’, he hollered. One Yoruba proverb even says “a woman is your wife, has children for you does not mean she will not bring her husband misfortune”. The bias also starts when a female child is born. Recently, when my neighbour’s wife gave birth, the man refused to throw a party like he did previously for his male child. He told me: “Sebi na girl”. It was also recently reported that a man refused to visit his wife in the hospital when he learnt of the child's s*x!
The one that beats me is the pressure the society puts on single women to get married.Another Yoruba proverb even proudly announces that “a man is the crown on a woman’s head”. That is why many women will endure the most bizarre form of domestic violence to stay married. Many even attribute delay in marriage for ladies as something of a curse. This explains why single ladies besiege spiritual centres for deliverance in search of Mr. Right.  I have also lived long enough to know that a single lady living alone is either promiscuous or a queer. But this is strange as all human beings have the right to choose the way they want to live without being the subject of bizarre and denigrating stereotypes. Now my verdict: I believe prejudice about women will be a thing of the past if all men will as from today, yes, today you are reading this article, act, respect and speak up against practices that belittle women-even at the risk of being labelled a woman wrapper. As for me, I have chosen to be one instead of keeping silence.

Write about how women need to be submissive and humble themselves to all men if you want front page.

Biim:

All this long story because of woman?


Truly u are a woman wrapper


Can your husband material sew tie?

Haywhymido:
certainly No. The mumu dey even call lalasticlala n seun

lilmax:
so much luggage and was tired,yeah right

Do you think she was the only one with so much luggage there?

The dude looked at the female not because shes human but because she‘s a woman

If men are to treat women just because they are humans then these privileges would stop and the word “gentleman“ would cease to exist.trust me
