His view is incosequential.Everyone claims to know the truth.
We have had women who have excelled in those fields even if they may be few.
Nobody should force or discourage a woman into or from entering such fields.The opinion of others do not matter what matters is your determination and belief in yourself.
His view would not change the view of some women who are interested in such careers or positions.He should stop the gender stereotyping.
do women g equal strength as men?

Engineering and other strength demanding jobs are just for men. Men v more emotional control than women. I m not a misogynist but there is a truth nature ll tell you.

Men can't breastfeed, nature conditioned us that way

I didn't read the post because I know the information the man will pass is based on archaic reasoning. The only jobs which place women at a disadvantage are physically demanding jobs, the ones where human muscle is pitted against machine or meant to work in tandem with them.

Jobs today are designed with weakness in mind hence their heavy focus on mental faculties. Women, trained in the same educational institutions as their male counterparts, can work these professions easily and sometimes better than lazy co-workers in the field.

The only things he [Mr. Archaic] might use against the female gender are monthly periods and an eventual pregnancy; two things which pose no problem in developed nations. When I schooled abroad I heard females could order anti-menstrual tablets and injections over the counter. Abstinence and safe sex protocols are a good counter to getting pregnant.

Why should they sacrifice such core and important aspect of their lives just to get top positions What of the sure consequences that will arise

Even in this 21st century?

The problem with women of this generation is that they think whatever a man can do they can also do without considering the nuances that are inherent in both sexes.
There are thousand and one reasons to show that there are certain jobs not suitable for women no matter the century we happen to be.
please ma'am don't take this differences of opinion from a male as a personal attack on the female folks but this is just the reality.
we just have to accept it and move on like a team not opponents in humanity.

First world countries are where they are today because human beings took risks. Somebody who believes they can make a difference in life will go to any length to prove it. Hundreds of thousands of women taking risks against nature mean nothing compared to the billions ready to sit down, birth children and contribute to the global population.

This is not about feminism.

Yeah right. Thinly velied feminist thread is still a feminist thread.

Imagine if people say you can't get top job or work in companies cos you are a man? sometimes we men get myopic and don't realize these opinions will affect us, how about when you have a very brilliant daughter and she's told all these cos she's a woman? if a woman is capable for top jobs let her have it, it should be about competence first not gender.

If I had a daughter, I would raise her in the Chrisrain traditional way and make sure she knows her role in society just like God told Eve after they had disobeyed him in the Garden of Eden. Also, in the article, the man made mention of Top Positions such as Operations, wetin woman dey find go that side? There are simply jobs that are not built for women and I did not make it so, society did not make it so, Nature made it so. So if they have a problem with, they can take it up with Nature.

I am not a chauvinist nor a women hater, I just don't see it as right trying to make the woman feel she can compete with a man or for lack of a better word view with a man just to prove we can establish an egalitarian society.
As a matter of fact,women are very different from men from the way they think to the way see things and their biological make up, and the Creator of humans knew this before any sociologist or psychologist was even conceived or thought of.
We are different in so many ways,just like not everybody can be what they want in life because of certain realistic limitations similarly women exhibit these limitation as a whole.

[quote author=Boland post=67462625]He's right.

Men are naturally stonger than women.

This shouldn't be a debate.

Weak and irresponsible men gave rise to this feminism rubbish.

It's all plain and white, women are not designed for some roles just as men are not designed for some.

Let both sexes embrace their uniqueness and play their roles accordingly.

How about if they truly want "Gender equality", lets start with giving women the same treatment we give men in the society and work place, i.e, no leniency, no lthing like "violence against women" (You hit me first, I beat the hell out of you and nothing happens).
I'm pretty sure the world wouldn't want such, it will bend the world out of balance.


Weak and irresponsible men gave rise to this feminism rubbish. I love this statement. Basically explains it all.

Do you think feminists weren't raised in Christian traditional way? you don't realize as people grow they can have different views about things? you guys never give in depth reasons why women cant be top executives, its usually the blah blah nature or Adam or eve boreshit thing, there's even no written rule about a job women can do or not.

As long as they continue to don the toga of feminism to look down on the billions ready to be or already being what God created them to be, they will continue to mean something - a nuisance.

If woman feels she has what it takes to win a man in a head on challenge, leave her the hell alone!
Slot of the competition these days aren't based on our physique but on our mental capacities which is why women are thriving more.

Now feminisn doesn't look harmful from the surface (like I said, the devil is subtle with his brainwashing) but if are "awake", you 'might' be able to see the fututre consequences.

Rubbish!

It is reasoning like this that makes our young women think that their highest achievement in life is getting married and having babies.

I've risen to the post of General Manager twice in companies I've worked with all under one year of being there.

While pregnant, I worked harder than most and any day I was out for antenatal, the company was in chaos. A woman was created to multi-task, it's just that some husbands want their wive's attention zeroed in on the family. They just don't like the inattention and competition.

Few are out there with supportive men and are making it.

Not everyone can do that, it takes alot of determination, willpower and wisdom. But if someone believes she can do it, don't put them down because you don't know what God has fortified them with.

Our ambitions are an insight to our capabilities. God will not give you the apetitie or desire for a feast he has no intention to set for you. That's why he said ask, some will ask for naira while some will ask for pounds and dollars according to what they are. Some animals were created birds but there are birds and there are birds. The eagle and the fowl can never be comfortable doing the same thing. Never!!!
The fowl can fly but only does that when it feels it's in danger, other birds fly for fun but cower when the winds blow strong. The eagle sets sail when the winds are strongest, soars above the winds and glides above.
There are fowls in men and women the same way there are eagles in men and women. You can't tame an eagle you can only try to befriend it. An eagle will never lay eggs for you and eat worm. It'll starve to death.

I may not completely agree with what the writer said but the truth is that some careers are more demanding for women than men and for a woman to succeed in it she will have to make great sacrifices on the home front sometimes especially if she doesn't have a supportive husband. However, this does not mean that women are less intelligent than men. In fact, wise men have realized that women are extremely intelligent and are often careful around them.

Look at women like Ngozi Okonjo Iweala. She's a trailblazer in her field yet she has a home. Wouldn't you like to have a mother or sister like her? Please let's stop discouraging women from aspiring to succeed in career and business.

I think the way of delivering a message makes it unpalatable.

The reality like he said is woman are at a disadvantage compared to men when it comes to "having it all" i.e family and career.

Some people do no employ women of child bearing age .This is a bitter truth

Women can get to th top of their careers AND also have family but this is very rare indeed.
Increasingly we see kids who have been raised by housegirls with little connection emotionally to their high flying mothers so there is a price to pay but with discipline ,planning and a supportive spouse the sky is the limit. The problem is whether such supportive spouses do exist commonly
