AmazonHippolyta: Lol..it's sensational and a plus to the agency and the mother of 5 . it's has given her much more publicity her educational qualification won't give her. most people don't care about educational qualifications in Nigerian politics... reason why you headlines like former governor,ex Senator, fulani herdsmen, Islamic cleric and pastors etc.. those statement provide more audience. so it's not because of inequality or anything like that. 1 Like |

oloyede252:Even if I agree with you that it is not about inequality but that is a wrong mindset in my opinion you don't address someone like that and our media houses need to learn to be professional her marital status has nothing to do with her presidential intentions which is purely political so why not look for something like former commissionerpermanent secretary chair person of this and that instead of using that to define her political aim. It is not a plus but a minus yes you want more readers but be careful how you sell your headlines so as not to mislead people and this woman's case is not the only one you see media outlets bring out screaming headlines that are totally different from what you end up reading in more enlightened societies such acts won't help them. After adressing her as a mother of five did we then read about her marriage or about her intention to run for the highest office in the land. Media houses should try to have headlines that go with what you read and not mislead people. 2 Likes |

I think that headline wasn't intended to cause harm. It is assumed that women have a harder time, combining motherhood and career...hence the tag 'working mum'. Heck! Some women even pride in it. That headline was more of sensational than belittling. As for the woman that introduced herself as Mrs, that's choice. Marriage is beautiful to the right person,at the right time. If she is so proud of it, why expect her to shrink and trivialise her marital status or the fulfilment she derives from it? She doesn't have to do that to satisfy anyone's insecurity. As long as, she doesn't get in your lane, everyone can coexist peacefully. I only have a problem with people who shame, bully, stigmatise and pressurise people due to their marital status. Most girls that dive into marriage immediately after school are not so pro-marriage, it is just an easy way out of unemployment and 'brokeness' for them. But since it works for both parties, the man gets a dependent submissive wife and she gets a provider...we can only wish them the best. Summary of my rant is, everyone is entitled to what they are so proud of. Don't tell me single ladies are frustrated, don't tell me most married women are unhappy. Live and let live. 9 Likes 3 Shares |

pocohantas:.. Thank you for this narration. Most ladies are always filled with emotions when judging issues.The caption was never meant to mock her or pull her down,rather its for other women to understand that marriage or having children does not and cannot hinder your aspirations as a woman. Its a pity that Amara who is advicing young ladies to shelve marriage is in her husband house and will fight any other woman who will want to snatch him from her with everything in her,she won't leave the man but she is here deceiving some people. Marriage is not the greatest achievement to some people I agree but does she have to force her opinions about it down to others? To some,its a great achievement. She should also try to understand the implications in written words as an educated person not understanding statements in a lay mans ideology. Gud afternoon. 3 Likes |

Amarabae: I hope you learnt from her post? Your post is worthless because it didn't consider choice. You don't have to begrudge a woman for seeing her marriage as her greatest achievement. |

BluntBoy:Is the thread talking about women who see their marriage as highest achievement or is it talking about shaming single ladies? At least pls pretend to be intelligent for once |

Amarabae: You are confused (not just unintelligent), hence your disjointed post. Read an excerpt from your own worthless post: Answering MRS is not the greatest achievement for a woman. What is your problem if someone sees MRS as her greatest achievement? How is it your business? It is fine if it is not your own greatest achievement but that does not give you the right or authority to belittle or begrudge anyone who sees it differently. Here is a part of the first excerpt which exposed your intolerance for other people's choices: Answering MRS is not the greatest achievement for a woman. GET IT INTO YOUR THICK SKULL Now, call me unintelligent again, I dare you!!! 3 Likes 1 Share |

Op nice post. Good insight. I agree wit ur point but the thing is its ladies dat push for marriages more. Most men want to b settled before thinking of such but there partners wont agree.. Anyways every body knows wat best for dem and as for d feminist thing. I got no ish wit it or gender equality. A woman should be able to have equal rights in every aspect of life but in marriage d man will remsin d head. Peace |
Re: Dear Men, Marriage Is Not The Greatest Achievement For A Woman! by Amarabae(f): 2:42pm On Jul 28, 2018 |
BluntBoy:I was talking to those who shame single ladies that answering MRS is not the ultimate achievement for a woman and also to single ladies who are feeling bad about themselves due to the shaming. Go through the thread and read slowly. It's like some of you trolls self-service off at my threads upon sighting it. fix yourself and don't expect another reply from me. Have a nice day . |

Everybody have their definition of success and to each his/her priority. Some ladies (actually most) desire a man to be considered successful irrespective of other professional or life achievement. Is it not funny that you, Amarabee, the author of this thread is married? Funny enough, you pride yourself as "Wife" in your first introduction of yourself before anything else (check your signature). What makes you different from the Dr (Mrs) Medical doctors? I put it to you that you are misguided, confused and you don't know your ideology. I wonder your reason for these misguided topics (not that it concerns me anyway). I doubt you would take this path if you are really happy in your marriage, I doubt. God save the young ladies that will fall to the scams of deluded group of people that called themselves feminists. That said, you are still my sister 3 Likes 1 Share |

TonyeBarcanista:Did you really take time to go through the thread or did you just read the "click bait headline" and then zoom in to write this comment Well let me give you a brief summary . This thread focuses mainly on the shaming of single ladies due to marital status. Focus on it and leave the DR Mrs part.(in fact let me remove it because you guys are obsessed with that part ) I chipped in that just to give an example . Finally having a diverse opinion and postulation towards a concept does not translate to being confused 1 Like |

Edited: Read the write up and you are right to an extent. No matter how it may sound, marriage remains a huge successful ultimatum for ladies. If you don't know. Ask those single female bankers from age bracket 35 years and above. |

Amarabae:I am not aware that anybody is shaming anybody because of marriage except you want to count taunting as shaming. Well the truth is, people get taunted for one thing or the other. Some get taunted for being poor, some for being short, some for being fat/obese, some are shamed for their looks, some for the poor diction, some for the size of their sexual organ, some marital status etc. As long as we breath and live, taunting will NEVER vanish away. If a lady of advanced age is unmarried and she is taunted by her condition, she has the option of focusing on things that makes her happy while ignoring the taunts. Whether her unmarried state is as a result of some lifestyle or personal decision, it is irrelevant. But a fact remains that marriage is a priority and achievement for most women. Whether it is the only priority or not is another topic entirely. Once again, Naija feminists (including Chamamanda) are misguided people that doesn't really understand what they stand for. 2 Likes |

JONNYSPUTE: LOL, if we will be sincere with ourselves, both sides addressed that issue with sentiments. The guys were out to deride, the ladies were defensive. No one reaches a reasonable conclusion that way. I opened that thread, read few comments and exited. Even as I open this one, e get monikers I for see...I will know no logical sense will be made here. This isn't about Amara, if you read till the end, you will see she said marriage is good, but it shouldn't be a sole ultimate. I find it surprising that same guys who complain that Nigerian women use marriage for poverty alleviation, still attack people like Amara when she implores women to have a hustle.

Amarabae: Stop being foolish and learn. You can't afford to be arrogant when you are not very bright. If you want to advise, you should have written: Not every woman sees MRS as the greatest achievement of a woman Instead, you wrote: Answering MRS is not the greatest achievement for a woman. If someone looks down on single ladies, I wouldn't belittle their love for the MRS title by saying Answering MRS is not the greatest achievement for a woman. instead, I will tell them not every woman thinks the MRS is such a great achievement I hope you can understand my point and ameliorate your disjointed post. 1 Like |
