feminism is the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes.

I'm gonna speak for myself on this, I'm all down for the equal right stuff but i can't stand firm and call myself a feminist, because one day I'm going to be a wife and a mother, even if i don't want to or have to, I'll not want to disappoint my family and end up single and lonely for the rest of my life, its ok to be self reliant and hardworking but eventually I'll need a mate, its the way things should be, and when i find this mate, i will submit to him, because they can't be two heads in a home, i can walk away if he doesn't respect me but i can't see myself as his equal because he's my husband, this is why i won't boldly call myself a feminist.

And this is why i see hypocrisy in most people who call themselves feminists today, Beyonce, Oprah winfrey, Angelina Jolie, Emma watson are all notable feminists to mention a few, these women all have something in common, they're all successful and powerful, they're known and the world listens to them, feminists of old are like them as well, they're responsible for alot of things women have access to today, they include the right to vote, own properties, education, be financially independent and a whole lot of other stuff, these are the people you can call true feminists, its ok to see these women as role models but alot of ladies these days who don't understand the true meaning of feminism are taking it overboard.

Imagine a married housewife who happily dropped her last name and adopted her husband's last name, feminism is all about equal rights and you're a feminist, why can't he adopt your own last name but you're adopting his? A Nigerian man would tell you its because he's the one that married you not the other way around, that way you must submit to him, and you will, as a married woman you're mandated to see him as the head of the house while you're his companion, you make his meal, you keep his home, you make babies too, you're not coerced into doing these things but you're doing it yet you claim you're a feminist,

You see marriage as an achievement so much that you flaunt it every chance you get, yet you're a feminist,

you're employed and you earn something every month, but you still expect your husband to give you feeding allowance and other allowances every month saying its his responsibility, how is it his responsibility when you're both equal, yet you're still a feminist, You're a hypocrite.

You can't sit on the fence, linda ikeji is successful as well, she can get things done, she has made her mark before coming out to decieve others, yet you're here with nothing to your name chanting feminist, before you join her in whatever she's doing try to be successful as well.

We're both saying the same thing, and i didn't suggest that feminists shouldn't respect thier spouses, I gave instances but i knew you'd argue, you love it so much

I kept hearing all these

Women being given equal voice in governments.

Let me ask this.

Is there any place in Nigerian constitution that says that a lady or woman cannot contest for a certain post?



Is there any role in this government that says that a woman is not entitled to a certain political appointment?



There is a big difference between equality and equity .


I am a pro African man. I would love to provide for my family, but in a situation where I cannot, let my wife help me.

SeishinSenshi:


I understood and concurred with you fully until these paragraphs. I don't understand how these fit into your post. How does being married and respectful to your husband equal hypocrisy? Feminism from my understanding isn't role reversal or supposed 'gender equality' but rather equal opportunities and rights for both individuals. It doesn't mean the woman is equal to the man. So a woman can advocate for fair rights in a society and yet still love and respect her husband, recognize his authority as head in a home and not try to usurp it.
