uzobaby:If she decides to pay people's school fees, does she have to go to the school herself? Or its only considered charity if she goes there? You can do charity work from afar. 1 Like |

What she’s advocating for will get rid of the situations that cause those problems in the first place You can advocate for treating symptoms without curing the cause of the disease. Most of the issues you mentioned are as a result of female inequality in Nigeria uzobaby: 1 Like |

kmcutez: If you don't that you can't hate men and love di ick, then you are a learner. If you've not read Americanah, pls go and read it. Though I'm still struggling with it. I read normal novel in two days, this is my 5th day on it, I just made a vow to finish it so I can say I've at least read one of her books. Cos I had half of a yellow sun and purple hibiscus which I never read. |

TinyHacker: SMH. Read again.The aim is to use an easy-to-understand analogy. I also provided a little context by providing a definition (you skipped that part because you, probably, were in a hurry to react). The simplified analogy serves a purpose, and people who are teachable did pick up the message. You can figure this one out as well. Sharks are found in water Whales are found in water Therefore sharks are whales Take your time. Remember if you cannot explain it simply, you don't understand it. |

vindisick:Azin eh..i just wonder what kind of stupid argument/ example she is making..i hv been reading her statements..they are just rubish |
Re: Eunice Atuejide: Chimamanda Adichie Is An Extremist, She's Misleading Girls by Nednelz(m): 12:04am On Oct 05, 2018 |
kmcutez:u should have been able to differentiate between ' culture ' and the 'generally accepted social norms/values..that such is done in Benue state does not mean that it happens everywhere..and I believe there are persons from Benue who don't practice that rubish..ur examples are deviating from the argument please |
Re: Eunice Atuejide: Chimamanda Adichie Is An Extremist, She's Misleading Girls by Nobody: 12:12am On Oct 05, 2018 |
Nednelz: I just used Benue as an example because it is a common practice there. Does not mean it does not occur throughout Nigeria, albeit in small quantities. |

Igboeze90:Still wrong, simplified or not. I guess what I'm saying is above your level. Politicians and sharks are nouns used in referral to just one thing, Extremist is both a noun and adjective that can used for anybody or anything long as it fits the idea. "Religious Extremist" "Political Extremist" So yes, we can call people who take religion to the extreme like ISIS or people who took politics to the extreme like the Nazi's or Feminists that force flawed incentives extremists like Eunice did, nothing like """"invalid argument"""". But we can't call anything found in water a shark Hope this helps you in making actually clever analogies. |

TinyHacker: Well, I shouldn't bother replying you, but I will because you need help, and you refuse to take the trouble to immerse yourself in real study, not the cram and pour education Nigeria offers. Let me help you for the last time. First: an argument is invalid when it breaks the rules of form. There are many such rules. Find them and internalize it. Also, in every argument it is unwise to not DEFINE YOUR TERMS. Did I not DEFINE extremist? Second: there is a popular argument in America. The argument is invalid. If you can find out the flaw, you've had a fairly good education. Here it is. Terrorists demand the withdrawal of American troops Liberals demand the withdrawal of American troops Therefore Liberals are terrorists PS: Ms Eunice was clear. "I think she is an extremist." Extremist here is used as a noun. All the examples you gave, "extremist" is used as a noun as well... An example of "extremist' used as an adjective is "Chimamanda has extremist views." Do well to learn your parts of speech in depth. We're not on the same level, by the way. I agree. |

Igboeze90:You analogy is still wrong and I am more educated than you will ever be, sorry. |

Lolzzzz. I laugh when I see some people with chattered esteem say that women should be generally submissive. So because you are a man, you move around expecting submission from every woman out there? My submission is for my husband and my husband alone. That is how some idiots will tell you things like " look at how you are talking to a guy" simply because you are trying to speak for yourself. Pls work ok your self esteem and don't be mad! |
