@bold, I am not them and my mom is not a submissive type and my parents are still together. My dad is not a control freak.
I never claimed to be a christian neither did I bring religion in my post.
How many times have you told your fellow men to love their wives to the extent of dying for their wives you are only comfortable telling women.Maybe if men took apostle paul's instruction they would be better husbands.
The definition of submission cannot be literally applied in today's world because during the time apostle paul instructed women to be submissive slavery was permissible women had little or no rights so it was okay to easily submit but today women have rights are educated, have choices etc so it would definitely be hard to submit in the literal sense.
then go and marry a man and pay his dowry make him house husband dont disturb us with your feminist gospel,yon want to control a man in a country like nigeria where trailer drivers can stay on the road for two weeks just to feed his family too much zee world is not good for you, be happy you were born in nigeria not afganistan by now you will be inside your room with your niqab of hijab,if your husband decides to marry more 3 wives i hope you too will get your self more 3 husbands in your husband house ,you can even ask your husband to lit cigar for you so you can smoke

AmazonTopaz,

Interesting thread, thanks for creating.
However, my take away is from what bukatyne said about women somehow still train their sons to be like the husband they complain about and never instilling the qualities they want their husbands to have. Isnt that weird but its mostly true perhaps they know those qualities will actually make their sons weak!
Re: Some Nigerian Men Have Low Self Esteem, Need Reorientation - Opinion by 1x2x3: 6:12pm On Jun 08, 2019
Women will remain women, if you turn the tables they will still complain. For instance, let women toast us, make the expenses, marry us, feed and protect the family. Let's have the war rule- Don't kill men and children but kill all women, let women do all the hard and life threatening jobs...... I bet no man will complain of being maltreated or even seek equality.

Here they are complaining even when they have everything in their favour.

Tell that to your fathercheesy
Women, Children and Dogs are loved unconditionally

A Man is only loved under the condition that he provides something.

Or tell us the reason who you love your boyfriend/or your husband?

God himself is a Man and not a female, he created all men like me in his own image and you have be meekly obediently to all men.

Or you want make God provoke and be regretting on why he created female?

All these baloney are for males like me, who are poor cool sad cool

Women keep saying one thing but doing the opposite.
Women are not seen or treated as commodities.

But it is what they have made themselves.

They have openly kept themselves as objects to be bought by the highest bidder -- applying the law of demand and supply. This hitherto, had been there albeit subtly.



Look at Ned and Regina. Why on earth did Regina leave the young, handsome boyfriend for Ned? Love?

The man bought her. Simple. Like you go to a car stand and buy a benz.
Look

Iara and Oshiomhole
Davido, WizKids and mamas. Why would chioma stick with Davido for 5 years?

In these 5 years he had imprenated many girls, yet she stayed put. Why? Because of money, fame and affluence.


I admit that there are exceptions like the Jeff Bezoz's wife but it's just few.


So no need playing the victims. Women made themselves commodities. They aren't treated as such but they made themselves so.


At any rate, I won't support the slut shaming of women as seen in this forum. I also understand why men do it. It's survival instinct. Only a few would understand.

You have said it all!

Initially on this forum, I used to be an advocate of gender equality and women empowerment, but along the line I discovered that most Nigerian ladies seem to be comfortable in being a commodity and property to their men. They seem not to want to be empowered but to remain as subordinates to men.
They loath being independent and pulling their own weights just like their male counterparts. Yet the same people would turn around to complain when men demand submission and total authority over them!

The wise men said that he who pays the piper dictates its tune. I can not acquire you like a commodity only for you to want equality with me.

Only ladies who truly pull their own weights deserve respect and equality with men. Not those acquired like commodities

That verse of the Bible started with "submit your selves one to another.." before the popular portion people normally quote.
Men need to know women are not actually in competition with them.
Every one deserves respect too. Men or women, young or old.

PhenomenalMorgan:

Many dont know what feminism is, if you ask them they will say its equality of both sexes...
Equality is a broad term, Equality of what, how
This are the questions many cant answer.

Even if equality in both sexes just a simple meaning, African culture still doesn't accept it. A man would always be the head BUT If a woman wants equality may be she should share the burdens of home 50/50 with a man and if such woman is single then she shouldnt live on any man's money. Most of the so called feminists still live on men who are not there husbands but in engagement of rub my back I rub yours(friends with benefits). May be I will start takinf feminism in Africa serious when women are totally dependent on themselves.

Most times, what women need is just a little help hand and all their MUMMBLE- RUMBLE is gone...

Do you know there is no equality anywhere in the world , its either the system gives the women more power synonymous to overseas or men are allow to exercise there fundamental power.
There can never be two captain on a ship, even pilot onboard aint equals ... these has nothing to do with culture, mentality or been archaic its what life as bestowed upon us. you said:

"the African society focuses on training females more than males. They teach girls how to be good wives and mothers and they forget to train our boys" ALOL lemme correct that with my analogy
men are hardware while women are software lol!! do you know programmers & investors spend more time & money on creating softwares antivirus than the hardware itself ... you av a gadget than only get an update once a year but installed apps/softwares get updated almost every month grin
women are trained to be good wives just as those apps on your gadget are perfected with update regularly so as to be immune to the bugs & virus ..hence good softwares.
womens are draft becos man was lonely to be our companion preferably our partners .. shikena

Modern day feminists are just confused , especially the Nigerian ones . Please stop setting young ignorant girls on a wrong path,My mum and majority of her likes had wonderful homes respecting and being submissive to their man , that does not make them lesser or irrelevant in the union but earned them more respect . Naturally and by accident , we are not equal and never we will but complementing and accepting each other’s weaknesses, helps in maintaining a healthy relationships. Where’s aunty Linda today ?

You are on point, especially on the lack of guidance or training of the average Nigerian male. Parents generally, inadvertently concentrate on training the girl children, leaving the boys to grow to adulthood not being able to tell their left from their right.
This is the main reason, I believe, why the men are not able to run the country properly.
