MissWrite:Wonderful analysis, but let me add something. The lady might start feeling superior(true colors) when she starts earning a better pay check than her husband. So You agree that it is definitely not just the imagination most men. |

greiboy: It's not your (most men's) imagination, no. I agree with you, some girls don't have humility (that's their character flaw) and it begins to show when they are independent. But! Most guys are already so used to manipulating/disrespecting women with their money that they don't have an objective position on this. It won't take much for a woman to appear "arrogant" from their perspective, she only needs to refuse to be manipulated and she's seen as obstinate and disrespectful. I saw you quote Beyonce earlier, that's what that line was about: not attacking, but having your own so that you don't have to take the disrespect from guys. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Gerrard59:Up to 20%,And nobody is forcing anyone they are just encouraging them some parents may not be able to afford to take those girls into science related courses hence the sponsorship and encouragement some of the ladies get.The BBC pay may be fair to you but they have females that have high viewership.It is just like saying Kelly Ripa does not get high viewership and should not be paid well.I am not bringing emotions here I also believe in meritocracy and we have females who have merited such and deserve good pays.The sport world would always bring the highest viewers,If you say it is simple economics playing out then if Wizkid is to invite Beyonce and Nicki minaj they would get the highest pay.As from what I know concerning equal pay nobody is asking that females be paid higher but that the credible ones be given an equal share.Yes men dominate the tech world no argument about that but I have seen the incredible works female technological experts have done and the work of a wonderful neuroscientist and the upcoming one expected to be shown on CNN inspirations this Saturday "our future world".And maybe because we have had women who have succeeded in male dominated field hence the clamour for more.I am sure CNN christiane amanpour earns a lot because that her programme has a lot of viewership.To you it is economics I agree but there seem to be gender bias in some areas hence the clamour for equal pay.The equal pay act was not established for no reason because it is still believed people are paid because of their gender and not on merit,which the equal pay activist are against and not only based on economics as you claim. |

Mhissgaga: men naturally want submissive women period,its hardwired in men,why you women think its a problem is because what you see with the western world.but these western people arent normal,their men have been feminised especially as regards their thought pattern.thats y u probably observe that they are subservient to their women,and nigerian women are lusting for that,but it isnt normal,all other races of men subdue their women,its totally natural for men its not peculiar to nigerian men 3 Likes |

Ladyhippolyta88: 20%? I will love to see that paper. Thanks. OK, let's assume it is true. That is a minority not majority. My postulation stands. Yet again, I'm saying folks who bring in more revenues should earn more whether males or females. Market forces dictate it. If the female presenters believe they are not well paid, they have the prerogative to resign. If Beyonce and Wizkid are to perform in a show, I expect more spectators for Beyonce than Wizkid, invariably, expect her to earn more than Wizkid. I'm not looking at the gender here, rather the economics behind it. You've seen wonderful works from female scientists, ditto I, but did they say they earn less? What industry? Do they work more hours than the male folks and get paid less? Christiane earns more because she brings more viewers, did you see me write against that? Why? She brings in more viewers, hence, deserves the pay. If it were a man, same thing will happen. Now, should we compare her to the lad who doesn't bring in same viewership as she does and say CNN or the TV industry pays male presenters less? Economics not gender. @Bolded: Remember, I said in developed nations - where no employer pays a lady less as that will be criminal. Question is: Since females earn less than males (or there is a bias towards females in wages earned), why is that firms do not overly employ females? Since doing so will cut costs? No, we're not seeing the clamour for gender pay in male dominated fields because females excel in them. Rather, we're seeing it because these fields pay higher wages. Moreover, we've females driving trucks (in the minority like tech firms) - a male dominated field. How come there is no agitation for parity for equal pay? It is because the field pays less and is less glamorous. |

Jman06: Not so for the vast majority of Nigerian/NL men who insists on using Biblical quotes to claim "Head of the House". It's the hypocrisy the OP is talking about. Now you say women can take care of the bills, are you ready to babysit? Something has to substitute. As for the coloured question, females date/marry up; whether intelligent, financially independent, low class, less intelligent etc. It is nature and psychological. |

Gerrard59:Well, in my own view marriage is a partnership between two adults with the aim of working together to achieve a prosperous family. I don't believe in head and neck concept of marriage. Also, i don't sincerely believe that any chore is reserved for a particular gender. In fact, my kind of guy wouldn't mind collecting the pregnancy from my wife to carry it if at at all it will be possible, let alone babysitting. Your last paragraph kind of boil down to what i was saying. Women like to marry up even when they are financially stable, and this is the reason why guys will continue to marry down, so tell me why the op is now complaining.Isn't it clear enough why guys would rather marry down |

Gerrard59: This isn't the context Sir "Head of the House", many women crave to be "the man", "the alpha" in the relationship these days, they feel being a wife and a mother as restrained and confined...This is the underlying cause of the problems thesedays |

Safiaaa: Op what you say it's true. Now the question is how do u make a Nigerian man want you, approach you for a long term relationship? The answer is this: First lemme do a short intro, so u understand where am heading to: am an independent career driven Buisness lady. I started my biz my company at the age of 27 and my late mum was my backbone. She was a successful business woman back in the days. I was very businesslike, no nonsense lady back then. So I noticed truly men don't like to approach such working class successful ladies . I studied their character and I realized they prefer to marry Bimbos, then have us as side chicks to assist them mentally in handling their Buisness. When I noticed it. I then decided to stop dressing like a serious minded lady. I wear more feminine soft colourful dresses, thank God I own my biz, so I can afford to look inbetween flirty and easy going with my work outfits. Then 2ndly, I stopped footing my bills, especially 70percent of bills. Thank God the recession helped in that aspect. By low patronage and low sales, so technically I became broke, especially during the first year of buhari Regime. As I became broke , and I have bills to pay? I then transferred my financial demands to my male friends and admirers. They were happy to assist. U can see the pride, the manly look in a man's face when he is paying bills for a female friend or A lady. And when u sweetly thank them, like a pussycat they are all the more happy to go an extra mile. Most men love to be incharge in every way possible. So give them the opportunity. The more u say, u can pay your bills and take care of your needs without asking a dime for them. In their mind, they Wil smile and cancel u as a wife material.. Except fucvkboiz dem. So successful career ladies, be soft , be flirty, be humble when displaying your intelligence to men. Let them take charge, it charges up their batteries to 105%, deep down. So women in this category jusy relax and interact with men sweetly, u will notice their choices will then tilt towards soft flirty intelligent career women. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Well, As a man, placing your pride on the amount of money you have is risky and inappropriate. True power lies in your ability to be in control of yourself and whatever situation you find yourself. Learn this, and a financially independent woman would be the least of your problem because you got your shit together and therefore knows that she can't mess up.... 1 Like |

10 Tips for Happy Family Home 1. If your goal is to have a satisfying marriage with longevity, make sure you are accountable for the part you play in the relationship. When you are in denial about your part in the relationship then you are no better than a child flinging sand at another child in a sandbox. When you take responsibility for your part in the marriage, only then will you be able to connect with your partner in a mature, intimate way. 2. Research consistently shows that touching more creates a stronger bond by releasing oxytocin. Hold hands, rub shoulders, hug, kiss, give high-fives or even fist-bumps or bottom pats. When you give a quick hug or kiss, try to lengthen it to at least 5 or 10 seconds for more effective results! Also Read: https://www.seyiblog.com.ng/2017/10/6-ways-to-approach-and-talk-to-girl-for.html 3. Learn how to agree to disagree. No two people agree on everything, and that's okay, but it's important to be okay with each other's differences. 4. Sometimes it's not about the amount of money you spend on a gift; it's about the thought that goes into something. Take the time to write a thoughtful note every so often saying what you love and appreciate about him/her. Drop it in his/her briefcase or purse so he/she will find it unexpectedly and it will brighten up his/her day. Read more@ https://www.seyiblog.com.ng/2017/12/10-tips-for-happy-family-home.html?m=1

Purebeerry: The OP has a very good point about the insecurity in a lot of men and all,you have a good point too,but I can relate to what the guy said about the arrogance of a lot of working class ladies(not generalizing),I and my aunt were talking about this same issue yesterday,there are a lot of assholes who call themselves men but generally speaking men feel responsible for their woman and act accordingly,a lot of women on the other part turn monsters and start disrespecting their man once they start earning much more,and I am talking about women that were once very humble and homely,its almost like wealth and power is a weakness for a lot of women,especially wen it comes to their relationships,I have seen three or so marriages of my friends parents crumble as a result of this,in my aunt's friends case she started fighting and disrespecting her husband just cos he was not payed salary for a few months,and she had to cater for the home with her small salary,this is a hard working man that paid for her schooling and even built their own house in their early marriage lol...honestly sometimes,the way a lot of women act once they are in a position of wealth and power is scary,most times their relationships suffer wen their is down. 2 Likes |

Gerrard59:I believe there is clamour for equal pay in all sectors,I am not really good at economics so I would not start bringing demand and supply.Yes we have Female underepresentation in some sectors but the female that do it well should have good pay which they are not getting even though they may be in minority.Even based on the success Kathy griffin has and her two Emma awards for the television show she did, she still had to ask for a salary equivalent,even in Hollywood where there is still a bit female underepresentation the a list female actresses still have to ask for a good salary.You would agree that gender disparity in Hollywood is good for business.Actress Diane keaton cannot be compared to jack nicholson and yet for the film "something gotta give" she wasn't even given back end pay.Jennifer Lawrence even after making big hits in hunger games and silverlining playbook didn't get a good pay.People still believe that gender is still playing in and wikileaks revealed that Amy Adams still got a 7%cut less than her male counterparts in the film she starred in with Christian bale and Jeremy renner.I don't believe underpaid females should resign they can negotiate a salary increase if not Kathy griffin and Kelly Ripa would have resigned.Even as strong as meryl streep is in Hollywood her pay is not close to Robert downey Jr.Although some have argued that unequal pay in some American work force and Hollywood in particular is as a result that women films do not sell which others have refuted and said it is not true,thanks to Disney has audiences have proven that there is an appetite for dynamic female leads so why the small pay.You may say it is economics but I believe it is influential power from Hollywood big shots.The wage gap and opportunity gap discussion would continue and maybe then studious and other agencies and industries move beyond unequal pay for equal work.Thank you. |

Martin0: Although we discussed extensively on and around the subject yesterday, i like to add this final point. Now financially independent women have a deep innate craving, which is to dominate men, hide it or not, like it or not, their psyche is their financial resources gives them leverage to achieve anything a man can. I can give myself the best treatment, take care of me, and see no need for a man, this is self-delusion, as a result, she goes out, look out for a man she feels she can will her goods to ( less-financially okay guy), the mindset is if i can raise this buddy up, he will be loyal to me and these dudes many times act calm, gentle until they use the chick to hammer, and then run and go settle for less-financially independent lady. By the time, she learns and becomes wise, she had developed a mindset that all men wants me for my goodies, she becomes introverted, can not establish emotional intimacy to a strong level without insecurities. This is the story of many financially independent ladies, in the end, they get used by broke guys and dumped, their emotional health is another thing, one moment green, the next light.... They yearn for love, but their insecurities kobalise them, added to this problem is their character flaws, cause as they were tossed from one relationship to the next, they didn't remember to process and work on themselves. Men, i visited quite a few corporate firms this year, and when i look into the eyes of these ladies, i saw the obvious, " loneliness", guys don't go for these kinds. Maybe i should play with some for the short term self...Lol... They moral of the story is money doesn't buy love, financially independent ladies should hide their financial status and look out for men they can build a bond with, simple things like compassion, care, laughter, smiles, step by step , line by line are the little materials needed to build a relationship and not " money". But oh no, the broke guys that can afford a few wears will keep using them, and there goes the sermon, men are this...Seeing that the average financially independent lady has a bad love history, men avoid them, cause changing their orientation no be small work, it can kill even the strongest man, incidentally, men that want to leave long run away.... But, have you noticed how broke guys chase after financially independent ladies? Lol...it makes me laugh my head off when i see many of them...and them go think say na real love...LMFAO |
