The above question have generated a lot of controversies as long as sexual politics, equality of sexes is concerned.

The feminist have always tried to persuade the world that women are powerless in the society, saying men are natural oppressors of women.
Like a popular feminist Ellen Galford would say : wives are subordinate to their husbands in the home, and outside the home, men have excluded women from political, economical and cultural power.

On counter opinion, a wise man once said : if however powerful a man may be, his powers is used to serve the woman in his life, everyman has a boss as his wife,mother or anyother woman in his life.
Men may rule the world but women rule the men who rule the world.

Nairalanders, what do tou think? Give yout opinion and reason.

I dont agree with that.
A woman can always wrap a man around her fingers if she puts her mind to it.

The postion of the man is not in contest here. The question is who has a greater power over the other?

Women power as we know is not wielded by women through public system of authority, but they can manipulate even a president to get what they want

Wetin Buhari do you na Only losers blame other people for their own problems. Women are their own enemies. We have had women presidential candidates in Nigeria but they got very low votes which implies that they did not even get the support of their fellow women who preferred to vote for a man instead.

Look at scandals involving men of God. You will see women quickly castigating the women involved even before the stories sink in.

You people should stop blaming men. You have problems with yourselves and that is the issue. Put two men in a room and they can live in peace for months. But do the same with two women. There lies the problem. You are yourselves' enemies.

Buhari is responsible for the country's situation.Every action he takes affects the country one way or the other.He is the elected president and makes decisions on the countrypeople's behalf.

Who is the society

Buhari is not solely responsible for the country's situation. And are you blaming Buhari for what you perceive to be misogyny?

Listen, Akanke, the fact that the African culture has always favoured patriarchy does not mean that women should not share in the blame. Europe have had their share of patriarchy too but it took rigorous female-orientated crusades, especially in the 30s to begin to soften it. You all need to do something about it. But with the sort of women that we see on social media and the mentality of many who expect relationships to be some sort of opportunity to make money, among others, patriarchy will continue to reign supreme.

Marriage shouldn't be a master-slave relationship,they are meant to complement each other.Only a woman with slave mentality will subject herself to such.

Actually, feminists aren't trying to persuade the world that women are powerless. Because we are not. They're saying that women are repressed by societal norms. They are trying to get the world to recognize and accept (and not be afraid of or intimidated by) the strengths and capabilities of a woman in all its forms. For centuries, a woman would only show her influence by influencing a man (who is the ultimate shot-caller). Feminists say women can be shot-callers as well. It's not about who does what, but about what's being done.

If a woman's only access to power and influence is through a man, then men have made themselves indispensable to women. And when they are indispensable, then they have all the bargaining power; they can disrespect women and treat them shabbily and get away with it. When men are indispensable to women, they can set standards that women have to conform to if they want to be taken off the shelf. Feminist try to give women independent legitimate identity, sense of worth, and societal relevance. To rule independently, and not indirectly.

It is still largely a male-centric world (Especially in third world regions), where a woman needs to swallow herself and perch on a man's shoulder to matter. But things are changing. Today is better than yesterday.

Who rules? No generalizations can be made, and it really should be a matter of substance and not gender.

S/he who holds peace between the two rules, and this is definitely what women are known for. A sane, sound and responsible woman will always rule her man, she's always in charge. Power doesn't belong to s/he who superficially exercise control, but to the one that is charge. One in charge is rarely seen but is always heard.

The power rule in any form of relationship or association is the same. Examples; In politics, diplomats are seen but not heard, while politicians aren't seen but heard - in this regard the former do serve the latter. In a healthy romantic relationship/marriage, a man is seen but not heard (metaphorically), and a woman is not seen but heard - so automatically the woman rule the man.

That's what feminists are trying to change.Those who take dating/marriage as a poverty alleviation programme are mostly poor,narrow-minded,unintelligent people.

Perhaps in the public and political structures, which form the domain of male power, women are not well represented, but we still have some women in power.
But there are other mode of power which the women monopolize.

I'm sure its someone like you who'll ask your partner(s) to kneel down to serve you food.The husband is meant to complement his wife and vice versa.It shouldn't be a subordinate-superior thing.

I don't think that it will. Emancipation is a curious thing; human beings didn't go back to running around naked after the 'Garden of Eden debacle'. And black people have succeeded in establishing a political incorrectness about racism for good. It's not in our nature, as human beings, to be okay with being seen and treated as inferior (in our humanness) to the next person. Once the genie is out of the bottle, it's hard to force it back in. Watch or read 'The handmaid's tale'. It's an interesting study of occurrences resulting from the decision to re-subjugate women.
