Feminism is the most stupid struggle in history! Women are very selfish and deceptive, they want to have equal responsibilities with men when it come to enjoyment but when it comes to hustle, they claim men are more powerful physically. When it comes to cooking or washing they want it to be shared equally, but when it comes to Bill's, school fees, they want men to take care of it because any man that can't take care of his house is worse than an infidel. They want women leaders in political parties but there are no men leaders and they dnt have anything against that. In relationships they won't the man to open the door, send them romantic gifts, but they won't return the favor. In the university, engineering for instance, they want men to do all the practicals, carry the concrete, and vehicle engines but will protest when there is descripancies in pay. They cry for more women in the parliament as if they were prevented from contesting, when thy contest and loose they want some positions to b ceded to them rather than on ground of competency. Men are created to take the lead and women to be assist. I told my fiance outrightly that if you want to be equal to me then don't ask when am meeting your parents or who will foot the bill of the wedding or running cost, just divide the bills equally and come have my own part. When we go out on date u pay your bills and I pay mine, i can't pay for your hair since you ain't paying for mine too. Let's go 50/50 and let's see how it goes, since that day she don get sense. They want women to be equally represented in the presidential villa but will not protest when there are no women in the army of soldiers fighting Boko Haram in Sambisa Forest.

ItsQuinn: Nop, point of correction, men know what they want but women generally don't know what they want. I once asked a girl out but later discovered she's a feminist. She lacked respect, get offended with everything, and was even acting hard to get. After tough argument one evening, I deleted all her contacts from my phone and social media account. She contacted me after a long period of not hearing from me apologising. But it was too late, am not interested in wasting my precious Tim with chauvinist. Does that sound like someone who knows what she wants? Mind you, it was this same girl who stylishly asked me out by giving green light signals with lots of worded challenges and accusations 2 Likes |

This write up is absolutely wonderful.. The worst group of deluded Feminist are in Nigeria, some are here in Nairaland. The preach Feminism up and down, but are quick to ask favors from men.. Deluded I say, real deluded individuals.. I met one in a bar, after her lengthy display of Feminism and chauvinism, she asked me for transport, daFuk, can't she transport herself, note I wasn't the person who invited her to the Bar. I have No problem with the philosophy of Feminists, but if u wanna toe that route make sure you do so wholistically.. U can't be only a Feminist in words, action speaks louder 7 Likes |

tolor:even she did not do justice to the term. I have not heard feminists complain of not being allowed to go face bokoharam or Isis in battle. I have not seen them campaign for men to stop kneeling when proposing or stop paying bride price for a used puccy. they are ALL hypocrites. if the real definition of equality is employed them Sef go tire. 3 Likes |

Mcowubaba:yeah, we should mix male footballers with female. we should also mix them in WWE wrestling.. mix them in front line of war. mix them everywhere. no special treats. you are on a date pay your bills. I call you one minute you call me one minute. no bride price, double wedding proposal. I can go on and on. if I am to accept the concept then it will have to be in totality. no excuses 8 Likes 1 Share |

ItsQuinn:And you earlier called yourself a "proud feminist?" |
Re: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by HumanistMike(m): 1:37pm On Dec 12, 2016 |
sweetcocoa: Sure. There's nothing stopping women from going to war and being in the frontlines. The setup has to be equal for both genders with regards to education, jobs, government positions etc. No special treatments. No quota system. Feminism doesn't want this sort of equality. They want women to not be in the frontline. They want special treatment for women. They want quota system (for women only). They want female supremacy. 9 Likes |

feminism is campaigning against rape,domestic violence and sexual harassment
feminism is campaigning for the girl child against female circumcision
feminism is against the Rape culture where
Victims are often disbelieved
Victims often do not report their rapes
Victims are often treated poorly by the criminal justice system
Rapists often go unpunished
Punishments for rape are often light compared to other crimes 2 Likes |
Re: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by AngelsAndStars(m): 1:41pm On Dec 12, 2016 |
sweetcocoa:you should equally advocate for women not to be treated with certain respect as per being female. I expect you to advocate for equality of gender in all ramifications. ALL. selection only means you are hypocrites. talk about sport, war, the mines, prison, hard labour, social constructs. etc tell me how many men you ever toasted in your feminists life? or tell me how you proposed when he wasted time. talk is cheap. be below. with dignity and pride. that is the role nature reserved for you 6 Likes |

AngelsAndStars:How many genders are there? These one you are shouting "ALL" like this. You do have to understand what gave birth to feminism before coming here to call me a hypocrite. What does toasting a man have to do with anything? Dude please educate yourself before attacking me unnecessarily. |

Anti-feminism blames women for the inevitable decline in economic status of low-skill, low-education, low-intelligence men.Anti- feminism smears women through superstition and religious belief Anti feminism smears women by saying women don't know what is good for them ,women are stupid they have fish brain and that women know nothing.

couliss:stop trying to shift goal post. feminism means Equality. so don't try to list anything. let's take it for everything. in all ramifications. besides, what you listed about are taken care of in the west yet feminism is still there. you are confused 6 Likes |
Re: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by AngelsAndStars(m): 1:51pm On Dec 12, 2016 |
sweetcocoa:the ALL means all aspect of life should be applicable if feminism would be respected. toasting a man is also what we men want. we are tired of being rejected, we are tired of being played upon. we want equality. well, it seems you people don't even have a universal goal. everybody just saying what suits them. feminism as much as I know means equality so please don't bring any other argument here 4 Likes |
Re: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by sweetcocoa(f): 1:52pm On Dec 12, 2016 |
HumanistMike:That's so not true. Feminism, just like every other movement is made up of different people who decide to interpret things how they choose, but I'd like you to know that, the real idea behind the movement is that women get their merited place in every sector. Feminism is not female supremacy. 1 Like 1 Share |

ItsQuinn: Y deceiving ursef? We ain't selecting anything, our ideology is simple, we are ahead of you girls and ready to take over the responsibilities of husband, boyfriends and leader. You keep to our rule, you keep to our instructions. If you choose otherwise and claim to be a feminist, do that holistically. Is that clear? I don't want any objection from you again 4 Likes |
Re: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by sweetcocoa(f): 2:01pm On Dec 12, 2016 |
AngelsAndStars:And who told you that it isn't being applied in all areas of life, don't we have women in the military(these days as opposed to before)? Are there no women who ask men out? Feminism is a very straightforward thing, advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social and economic equality to men, just how is this something to be confused about? Whether people have different idea of feminism is not the point, the main point is what feminism is really all about and I have explained it to you, so whatever else you choose to believe is no fault of feminism. 3 Likes |

Re: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by AngelsAndStars(m): 2:04pm On Dec 12, 2016 |
couliss:then I dare you. approach a man on the street and tell him how handsome he is, pay your bills when on a date. reject bride price, come ojuelegba come enter molue on motion by yourself, anybody that tries to help you slap that person you are not disallowed from contesting presidency, you are allowed to school, so u don't see any discrimination against you. last time I checked you fvck at will, no restrictions. 3 Likes |
