All I see is ignorance and knowledge gap. Read her response to questions, forget about the word feminist or feminism. I am not a feminist but being a feminist does not mean you can't marry or respect your husband. Read about the concept of feminism and stop attacking this brilliant lady uneccessary. She is representing Africa and Nigeria n she is doing it well. This is the first time I read her response to questions been asked about Africa n I don't think anyone would have given a better reply. 1 Like |

Fitz22: Feminism just like masculinity in its basic design is flawed. In the African context, you cannot fully advocate for feminism and fully respect your husband and his traditional God given role. So there lies the confusion and the stalemate. Compromises must occur both ways. 3 Likes |

Amakavula: Although, I don't understand the lady and her feminism movement sometimes... I love her as a writer, because I also love to write. So, lemme try and reply you. I don't think she wants men to be weak. I think she wants men to be raised in a way that would let them show and embrace their emotions. You do not have to be weak to do that, in fact, you actually have to be very strong to pull that off. I have male friends who have lost loved ones at some point in their lives and they couldn't shed a tear. You would hear stuff like, "it's very unmanly to cry". These pent up feelings pile up and graduate to something else. Some of them resort to violence as a way to blow off steam. Some men in situations like this, could also become depressed... some could take their own lives. Again, young boys get harrased and molested on a daily. They keep it bottled up. Some grow up to become wife beaters, rapists, or just plain "women haters'. They have to be trained to understand that speaking up, sharing your feelings doesn't make you a weak man. Finally, Men are quick to resort to violence. Especially in this country. Most men are angry ( Right now with oga bubu in power, I don't blame them); but the average Nigerian man believes violence equates to manliness. However, you can actually talk things over... have an emotionally balanced discussion with people to sort issues out. So, It's not about bringing up weak men... it is about getting them to embrace their emotions instead of shutting them off. With these few points of mine, I hope I have been able to convince you and not confuse you.... Ok, my hand don dey pain me, bye. 2 Likes 1 Share |
