OMO IBO:

ROTFLMAO
O boy, all that one no necessary.

In your own time bruh

@beebop. . . If you really believe the soft sell idea of feminism being for the good of women, then you are indeed dumber than a sack of hammers. Talking about Obama and black people, i have a belated news flash for you . . . VIRTUALLY EVERY RACE ON EARTH HAS BEEN DISCRIMINATED AGAINST! How many do we talk about? Is it the irish? The red indians that were slaughtered in millions by the invading nordics? Jews? Asians? How many? Obama being there changes nada. Only people can change themselves. Tell me,are women 'happier' now that fewer men are willing to commit themselves or get married? Are kids happier when they cant see dad as often they like due to mom's 'restraining' order in a bid to punish him 4 going against her feministic beliefs? Keep decieving yourself and you'll end up old,alone,living in a womens shelter.

Sagamite:

Don't be daft, I always told you that your intellect is below mine.

Where did you see me generalise?

If I say "Paris is a beautiful city", does that necessarily mean I mean ALL parts of Paris is beautiful?

Does your intellect rise up to that level?

Where did you see me state "What is with ALL women and their shoes?"

Reality is that there are a lot of women obsessed with shoes and have multiple pairs, they even have pairs they never worn. Whilst majority of men are not like that. I rarely know guys that own more than 12 pairs of footwear, whilst women on average have over 30, so it is fair to ask "What is with women and their shoes?"

Comprehend?

harakiri:

A lot of people here don't know that the real reason 'gender equality'/feminism/equal rights movement sprang up decades was NOT in the interest of improving womens' lives but i'll leave that statement hanging coz most people here would never understand even when you go through pains explaining. Back to the topic. . .gender equality is not about women's rights. Its about women keeping their natural rights as women and still having rights as 'men'. How this 'logic' remotely makes sense to people never ceases to baffle me. That is why there is always conflict with this issue coz its a disruption of the natural order of things all in the name of being 'civilized'. Aren't women voting and working in all male professions? What more do women want? Everything the women rights groups aimed to get has been achieved BUT are they satisfied? No! And they will not stop until men become extinct. The issue is simple. . . If you want a peaceful marriage, then check your feministic ideas at the door BUT if you prepared to live the rest of your natural life being single or a lesbian, then by all means embrace feminism (you would make the likes of Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres proud! ).

At the risk of offending His Royal Highness , I beg to differ.   When you say " Why do women do this" or "Why do men do this " , you are, in actual fact, making a generalization. There is no need to say " ALL" before people understand your point.  If you say " Paris is a beautiful city " you are actually referring to Paris as a whole and disregarding its streets and slums which may not be as polished as the other areas. That is what is termed a generalization. To avoid it, you may have to begin using the words 'some'  which takes care of the error you made.
e.g Some parts of Paris are beautiful. or  Why do some women do this?

chika98:

If I were you I rather focus my time on other things. Having an argument or some type of back and forth won't get anywhere really.

IyaBasira:

I would't call this arguing. To me I'm just stating an opinion. It becomes an argument when people get angry or upset and I'm certainly not.

Knowing who you are about to get in it with? I'd let that slide is basically all I was saying.

Sagamite:

Allow her.

She is trying to get me to notice her.

The clue is: Pruriency!




Good.

At least you are gutsy to make a stance unlike that dim goat.

The Royal Highness will take some time to respond to you now. Let me take my royal robe off.  

I disagree with you. It is not generalisation, it is a generic statement that applies to most and widely accepted.

It will never make sense for anyone to say Paris (a huge City) is beautiful to imply that ALL parts of Paris is beautiful. It, by generic terms, means "generally" Paris is beautiful.

Except, you append your statement with "All".

Generic statements are used to avoid tedious definitions in a casual conversation, unlike the definitions that one will apply to a legal document. It is a forum, not a legal document where one has to be so detailed.

If one says the UK is an advanced country, believe me, not all parts of UK is advanced.

If I say babies are beautiful, it does not mean ALL babies are beautiful, it is just a generic statement that applies to most and widely accepted.

If one says Germans are good at making cars, that does not mean all Germans know how to make a car, talkless of making a good one. It is just a generic statement that does not need much qualification to get the message across, except some people want to twist it.

IyaBasira:

Seun has come again. What type of word is Pruriency? First I saw infatuation and now I'm seeing something else. This word changing business is getting too much.

IyaBasira:

Royal robe ke?  Don't give yourself airs, my good man.  

IyaBasira:

Well in any case, you have made yourself sound a lot clearer than with your previous posts.  It seems that what I call a generalization is what you call a generic statement. But we are actually saying the same thing the way I see it. So let's call it a draw.  Or you want to put on those boxing gloves and continue?

Sagamite:

I dey blow grammar sometimes, no be small, even though I no go school. 


Don't you see some people struggling to be noticed to stand next to a King. 

As long as I am clear, I am cool.

I don't need gloves, I get royal bodyguards.  I no be fighter, I practice stainless.

IyaBasira:


Which body guards ? The ones I knocked out while you were putting on your robe?

i'd say the whole thing boils down to respect from both parties be it in a relationship or marriage or else. the ability to listen, ask for suggestions and take her opinions seriously would be a great asset with nigerian men, instead of being a control freak, feeling deprived or egoccentric when she gives suggestions. u laugh 2geda, play2geda and even at times make her feel totaly in control, women love the feeling. When someone’s presented with only a single choice, often their natural reaction will be to rebel against it and go their own way. However, when given 2 or 3 options, the opposite occurs: they feel their intellectual freedom has been respected and they make their choice from the variety of options they’ve been presented with. This is called option limitation. now, i understand some chicks might have a problem with authority; obviously thinking their about rights, equality bla, bla, bla bu if u truely luv some1 u would want to make each other happy no matter what. u win some and lose some without any feeling of deprivation. thaz a happy and fufilled life

bawomolo:

i find it hilarious that even with the submission that you guys are preaching, nigerian men still find a way to cheat and engage in polygamous relationships.

that submission isn't exactly keeping nigerian men content.    people should do what's best for their relationship and not worry about some silly gender roles or what the bible states.  

buzugee:

  nigerian men will always SUBMIT their abunna to a different woman even if their wives SUBMIT to them  
i crack myself up

bawomolo:

lol abi o. a lot of women must be submitting themselves to the same man

why anyone would compare a wife-husband relationship to an employer-employee relationship is just amazing.
