and you an adult without brain behaving like a kindergarten kid, that's why you were even called a kiddo .fool

all these insults because I said women should boycott Maggi over it's sexist cover?
I don't know why men are taking this thread personal, this thread is directed at women not men.

It is clear that most Nigerian men don't feel safe when they hear matters related to sexism and feminism.

Well, I'll just endeavor to ignore you.

Christianity, Islam and Hinduism.. even other traditional religions don't mean well for women.


I still wonder why the Catholic Church hasn't produced a female pope? because they're all sexist bastards.

Lol, and Jesus the defender of the galaxy is a man.

Little credit was given to women I'm the Bible, in fact women were object of ridicule except some very few occasions like Ruth who submitted to her husband till death, Esther who married a king to become useful lol. grin. The rest were traitors, cowards, Jezebels, and the disobedient lots wife whose name we never knew who turned to pillar of salt..

Even Abrahams wife was unbelieving for doubting she would conceive
Isaac's wife was a traitor who deceived her husband to bless a wrong person and so on and so on

It's only dumb people that believe the Bible was actually from God.

There's no way a God will create two things and favour one over the other. The Bible was clearly made up by sexist and misogynistic men to glorify themselves.


I pity women who quote bible as a means of justifying nonsense.

Rotfl... do you know how many brands changed their logos this year alone in the US because the logos were tagged sexist?

ignorance is bad... the fact that sexist and misogynistic brands don't get sued in Africa shouldn't call for joy.
But you can also buy Maggi in the U.S and in Europe....so why haven't they sued them yet?
Re: Sexism: Women Should Boycott Maggi Until Cover Is Changed by gcof(m): 10:19pm On Aug 06, 2018
Did that stop the men from cooking or has anyone refused to cook because Maggi said every woman is a star? For those citing the US, please know that US is US and Africa especially Nigeria is Nigeria and the utmost need of an average Nigerian is to get food in his table

With Maggi - every woman is a star. (THIS IS MAGGI'S COVER TEXT /ADVERT)

Despite all attempts to erase sexism from every part of the world, some people are still bent on clinging to or promoting their archaic & sexist ideologies.
Maggi's cover text is absolutely a sexist one and I believe the producers of Maggi seasoning know so.
WHAT DO THEY MEAN BY WITH MAGGI EVERY WOMAN IS A STAR?
they're simply reemphasing the belief that only women should cook, cooking is meant for women only if not the cover advert should've been WITH MAGGI EVERYBODY IS A STAR.
it should be gender neutral. If you must tag WOMEN then tag men also, or else they're simply a sexist and useless brand.
Maggi cannot try this nonsense in civilized countries like the US else they get their sexist ass sued for a couple of $$$.


I'm calling on women to boycott Maggi until they change /remove that sexist advert-cover.

This is my view. Men should be the ones revolting against this advert. A lot of men use Maggi too. Why should only women become stars with their use of the product?

This is marginalisation against the male folk. We should be labelled stars too as we use Maggi. Till they change their slogan, all men should boycott Maggi.

Beta male with no sex life hoping being a feminist brings him closer to girls throwing the word "Misogynistic" around without context? Can't say I am surprised.

OP I feel like ur making noise over ntn
there are much more important things to think about now
the truth is Nigeria and Africa in general is not ready to accept the whole women equality thing because the truth is in our society women aren't equal to men and even a lot of women think and act so too
because of culture and religion a lot of people think so too

and Ps stop all this activist sh!t
I myself don't like women oppression but the way u coming out to speak even with ur signature is kinda offensive,
and understand something what works in America does not work here ,
this is not America stop comparing us to them,
we have our own belief system
there is no right and wrong, homosexuality and transgenderism is okay there but not here and hopefully never will be


so please go and rest ,
come back in 100 years time

Lol... Kid want to teach me what is feminism.


I've no idea what feminism is about but I've organized more than 4 female empowerment seminars in delta state of Nigeria between 2013-2016.

Nigerian women have stood up in my seminars and insulted me openly saying they're not equal to men and will continue to be submissive -something I classify as Stockhomsyndrome. The inability to free yourself from your tormentors (men).


If I'm a bitch then what is your father? I respect my wife and treat her just like a woman should be treated. I see as a co-head and not as a subservient unlike typical African misogynist pigs who see their wives as subservient fellows.

Off course, Nigerian men have a record of accusing feminists and people who support the ideology of being lesbians and Gays.

And once again, I don't want you to wallow in ignorance therefore I'll talk sense into your dumb head.

Most Nigerian ladies don't know if there's something called feminism in existence , the few that know are less than 8% of the Nigerian female population. The few that know, many of them don't support feminism because they depend on men for survival hence they can't stop being slaves to men.

Consider yourself lucky that I honoured your dumb self with a response.

The writer of this post is very sexist. In instigating that all women should quit using maggi.
Since as he claims everyone is a star, then men should be the more offended. Maggi is limiting men's potential to be stars.
Well the truth remains that the female folk for now remain the largest users of maggi by far. Any wise company would key into that in advertising. It is business it isn't personal.
Lesson; as long as nairaland remains, people go find fault.
Or maybe the guy is just calling for attention. It that, he made it big.

Attention from who?

When people type this stuff I find it very funny. which people am I seeking attention from? faceless nairalanders or which people exactly?

Secondly, is your attention going to feed me?

If you are not seeking attention why did you write this. Even in the USA ad agencies advertise to reach their bigger buying demographic. Eg a product used mainly by blacks would create ads that reach the black community. A product used mainly by women would not advertise using men. I would like to depict women using make up in my ad even though some men make up. It's all about reaching your audience
