I admire Chimamanda to a great extent. However, I think she plays to the gallery a lot and mostly say things that make her more acceptable in the highly hypocritical Western society. I have watched many of her videos before coming to this conclusion. sad
I don't understand.

Are you saying she should say things that are acceptable to backward Africa?

Someone that has spent a lot of time in the west, and has seen the broader picture will no longer be acceptable to black Africa.

Besides, you have obviously not watched her videos.

Go and watch the her speech on the dangers of a single story on YouTube and see how she was defending Africa from negative stereotypes that the west have about the continent.

She made this landmark statement in that speech .

The problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete..

Chimamanda Ngozi adichie


Does that sound like somebody pandering unthinkingly to western beliefs?

This is Bullshiiit

If I come to you and say I want to sleep with you, Do you realize you have the right to decline right? There is something like proposition and there is something called declining. Every girl knows this and stop making it sound like girls are dumb and have to take every proposition thrown at them

Of the men who have approached you for sex in your life, did you agree to sleep with everyone of them?

And the pay disparity, there is something called negotiation in every instance of business. If I offer you 200 and you accept, then the next person I offer him 200 and he declines insisting on 2M. Then dont blame me or him for knowing his worth and insisting on it

If you agree to 200, Do you expect me to give you more?

If you want to buy bread and offer N100 and the seller accepts, should I blame you for not offering N10,000

Omoh over sense no go kill U

The pay disparity is one stale area feminist grasp just to find sympathy from deluded folks forgetting that in the world of business,there is something called negotiation!

This same scenario is even quoted in d bible where a man hires workers for a job in the morning for a certain amount of money only for the workers to get angry that the employer paid those he hired in the afternoon the same pay like theirs!

You are an exceptionlly observant person. That in fact is the easiest way to win a Nobel prize. If you look very well at Wole Soyinka's Nobel prize and the works that earned him the prize, you would not fail to see a similar trend of patronizing the western cultures and ideologies and almost portraying African cultures and standards as primitive. I salute your depth of thought.

Not really. Chimamanda even comes from my place but she doesn't really appeal to me. Though I admire her works and all and i must admit that she has done alot for herself and carved a niche but i just see her as she is... a person. She's not the type that I'll be in a room and they'll say, "Hey, Chimamanda just stepped in and is in the other room" and I'll go to catch a glance or even peer. You get?

In as much as sexual abuse is unacceptable and offensive, ladies should please stop using the media to tell their 'tales of the abused' after years or months of letting the culprit escape justice; as if it is a golden ticket to a million dollars. If you can bear the pain and let the culprit go scot free, please continue to bear the pain and leave us in peace. Madam told us she played along after the incident to see if she can get her desired result but she never told us if she gave in or if the man later helped, then what is the essence of this story?

so the man got his hand under your SHIRT and BRA, and you didnt think to say no or push his hand away as it was getting closer to your body?!?!?! how can a hand even "slip" under a shirt, or better yet a damn bra?! no wonder this demon had the audacity to try, if you couldnt even stop him when he was aiming for the breast... and then to make matters even worse, instead of giving this man a piece of your mind as to what happened, you still care about this book deal and downplay this abuse?!?!? no wonder there so many Weinstein bastards in this world

as much as what he did is wrong,this lady should certainly take some of the blame for this nonsense!

there are NO Pressure...if you cant say NO because you want to achieve whatever rubbish, then so be it,,, but if a man eye you then say NO, and if he insists then find ways to make him stop (the right way or the crazy way) but dont come here and justify this rubbish!

all them women who were abused by Weisntein etc did so because they are DELUDED...and went ahead to sleep with this man to get a role. they did NOT have to sleep with him, they did so because he was a powerful man in Hollywood who promise to put them in their next movies...the deluded ones slept with him, the proper ones with skills TURNED HIM DOWN! same thing that happens evryday with people who are trying to cut corners by sleeping their way to the top, where their lack of skills couldnt get them.

See....If you have not experienced something before DON'T try and explain away whatever those that has felt or how they react. YOU CAN NEVER KNOW HOW IT FEEL TO BE IN SUCH SITUATION. You can only "explain" what you think it should be like. In situations like these one is usually taken aback especially when you NEVER expected such could happen.

I know EXACTLY what she's talking about because i experienced such and it was so sudden, unexpected and just out of the blues.

SHORT DETAIL OF MINE: A man that was helping with getting my medicals ready for admission started handling my leg in the bus. First time in my life I would experience what they called dumbfoundedNess! I couldn't talk, move or anything! I was just frozen. I'm sure the man must have sensed my tension or saw the disgust in my face that he suddenly stopped. I was too ashamed to even say anything. I know what she meant by being disgusted and repulsive at the man.

if you (or any woman) is too ashamed to report such crimes then guess who is responsible for these demons to continue doing this rubbish?!?
furthermore, did you still try to act nice around the guy who molested you, in order to get whatever he was gonna offer you? if that is the case then, AGAIN, you should take some of the blame for what happened... so keep being ashamed in silence, and dont bring it to some faceless forum without even the name of the demon, because guess what?! it is POINTLESS. the day women decide to act right (and report these demons to the proper institutions), then we will finally start to eradicate these assaults.

It's a difficult world for Ladies especially ladies with brains who certain men cannot help but see them as sexual objects that they could exploit.

It's difficult for a guy to be with a lady without been switched on sexually.

At the end, sexual harassment is on the cards, if the sexual advances aren't appreciated by the lady.

It's just not Ok

But if she shows up like this, we will ride down that pussyville. Screwing the poo outta her will definitely be in the cards


Is that a generalization of the male gender as per your own standards or is this a fact?

Anyways,

I think that Chimamanda decided not to escalate her experience with that man out of respect for him. Yes, she needed something from him and he was in the position to grant it to her. Unfortunately, he wanted payment before service and he demanded it through his actions against her.

She should have spoken out earlier so that other women who may know about his impolite tendencies and avoid him or be wise when dealing with him. However, the circumstances that surrounded her at that particular moment may have influenced her course of action.

None of us where there to know what kind of clothes she wore, if they were revealing or not.

She should give us his name, because to me, that's what matters right now.. so we know how to deal with the pervert.

ANYONE who has been violated should report the crime, if anybody think that shame should have them sweep the issue under a rug (like nothing happened) then let THEM take some of the blame for what happened.
