The recent rape and deliberate murder of Uwavera Omozuwa, Tina Ezekwe and Barakat Bello have sparked considerable outrage across country, and consequently led to many other women coming out on social media to talk about their gruesome ordeals at the hands of rapists and predatory men. It is only rational to condemn the very beastly and psychotic actions of men who prey on woman for sexual gratification, men who objectify women and think consent is merely an inconvenient formality. However, what we must also condemn is the disturbing rise in feminist extremism and the misandrous inclination of women who are hell bent on hijacking the clamour for social justice and twisting it to fuel their narrative of men hate.


As feminism continues to shift from the ideal struggle for equal opportunities between the sexes, to a more extreme narrative of men hate and female domination, the world must be wary not to deliberately allow the replacement of one form of social injustice with another more dangerous and destructive one.


It is very disturbing to see the recent trend, where women are coming out to tell fabricated stories about how a man assaulted them in one form or the other, when in truth, there was clear consent at the point of intercourse. A good number of these women, driven by jealousy, revenge, hate, desperation and anger, would take advantage of the social outcry against rape and domestic violence to level spurious accusations and defame men for a perceived past slight or to settle scores. While it beats one's imagination to know that some women can stoop to violating their own honor and womanhood just so as to throw a public tantrum and gain attention, it still doesn't erase the fact that innocent men are increasingly becoming targets of such attacks.
Further alarming is the fact that these morally bankrupt people seem to be in unholy alliance with radical feminists who buy into such fabricated stories without questions asked and whip up anti-men sentiments.


Radical feminists would want us to believe that women are always the victims of sexual assault and men are always the perpetrators, this perception is however a laughable misconception. In the society we live in, a huge percentage of men usually experience various types of sexual abuses right from childhood, most especially from older females. Infact, many older men have at one time or the other had to deal with psychological manipulation from women with the intent to engage in a transactional sexual relationship, which in itself, is a form of sexual assault!. It is indeed ironic that in a society where women use sex as an instrument to bargain with and manipulate men, radical feminists would rather prefer to tailor their narratives to paint an entirely misguided picture.


Men who speak up again this trend are tagged anti-feminist and patriarchal. Unsuspecting people allow their emotions and the protective instincts towards women cloud rational thoughts. Matters of alleged sexual violations are now decided in the court of public opinion instead of the court of law. It would seem every man is now guilty of rape until proven innocent, even when proven innocent by the courts, many would still question the competence of the judge, as if once a man is accused of rape, he is expected to be guilty by default. It would seem the emotionally bankrupt opportunists and their radical feminist accomplices are winning the battle to systemically degrade menfolk and make every man a criminal suspect.


Apart from the fact that the concept of equality of the sexes is fundamentally improbable, the idea behind feminism is fast becoming contradictory; from the Trans-Exclusive Radical Feminists (TERF) who denounce the rights of transgendered women to access equal opportunities as cisgendered women, to the extreme sexists who wouldn't mind to see a world without men. These sort of feminists keep clamoring to be given handouts and preferential treatments in the name of gender balance. In a world where men face consistent risks and dangers in obtaining and maintaining social and economic opportunities on a daily basis, these brand of feminists are more amenable to seeking for the benefits and leaving the men to suffer the risks. Such irony!.


It would indeed appear that the growing trend of radical feminism is more of a ploy towards female domination than a sincere attempt to call for and work towards social justice and the even distribution of opportunities between sexes.


We must therefore rise against this dark tide. We must not allow the memories of Uwa, Barakat, Tina and a host of other innocent victims be desecrated and sullied by bigoted women wearing the cloak of feminism and wokeness. We must resist the attempt by women without conscience to take advantage of our righteous emotions and prey on innocent men for the flimsiest reasons. We must shake off the oppressive boots of both the viperous feminists and the bitter mistresses. That is the only way to achieve a society with fairness and social justice.

The debate topic should thus be "feminism is doing more harm than good in the society."

Interesting, can't believe I wrote this just over a year ago.
