Firstly,
I have explained to you already that social research is location specific! Once again, social research is location specific! It is not relatable period. Let me re emphasize with another example so that you can get it. A US research shows that 70% of people support LGBT rights.

https://news.gallup.com/poll/350486/record-high-support-same-sex-marriage.aspx

Can we simply relate that to Nigeria?? Well NO
Look at the Nigerian research data
https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKCN18C2T8
90% of Nigerians support criminalizing homosexuality.

If you ask why men die in US, you get a US answer. What researchers do is to ask the same question in Nigeria and get a nigeria answer.

One the pay gap issue, the burden of proof should be on you. You are the one that alleged that there is a pay discrimination. If you say that you saw a ghost, it's not up to me to prove that there is no ghost. It is you who has to prove that there was a ghost.

I have perused several salary structures in Nigeria, Conhess, conmess, conptiss, conaus etc. I have not seen anyone that has separate pay for men and women. Same as all the establishment I know. I have not heard a woman complain of being paid less because of her gender. So if it exists, please show me.

Ps: I would really love a reply on this. It will wrap up the entire discuss

Honestly and much painful when finally your kids all grown start making money and fending for themselves then you see them channel all the care and gift items to their mother whilst some if at all they have the heart to gift their father they will give him dry gin as per gods of the house...mcheeewww Still men wont complain but hide the bitter emotions in their hearts these are part of the reasons mean hardly give hard laughter unto jokes cos they have a lot bordering their minds which they dont want to share lest they be seen as a weak man or something.

HIPROFILE:


Lol my brother honestly things and things you will get to see and experience directly and you need no one else to make you understand the kind of sacrifice and things responsible fathers go through as you get married and begin to witness them e go just be like shells been cover your eyes and ears and now they are just fallen off....lol

When i was growing up i do hear some parents say they will marry a wife to their young stubborn and kinda wayward son so he can be responsible.

I did not really understand this until I became a father.

You keep making counter claims and not presenting any tangible data. Instead you went out of your way to give me LGBT data. There is no essence in that - you could have used that same strength to look for valuable research that disproves what I’ve said

Furthermore we are not in court nor are we discussing the law. So there is no issue of burden of proof here. It’s about analysing the data on ground. Stop telling me what you did or didn’t hear, it holds no weight.

You criticised the research, ok, but you didn’t proffer any alternatives.

It’s either you substantiate your claims or you don’t.

No long ting

30naira:


I don't have any data to show you, because there is none. That research has not been carried out in Nigeria, to the best of my knowledge. So as a scientist, I can not make any bold claim since there is no data. I will also not import data from the US and argue that it is the same in Nigeria, because social research is location bound I have explained this to you with examples. I believe you have gotten the point already, but just arguing out of spite.
Without data from a research conducted in Nigeria, everything you and I have on this issue are merely opinions.

Here’s some ‘Nigerian specific’ research specially curated for you. Waiting eagerly to see yours

. As Soetan
(2002) observes, 50% of the women in Nigeria work in 7 occupations only. Women tend to work in clerical
occupations, sales, health care, social care and teaching professions; they are under-represented in managerial
jobs, physical, mathematics, science and engineering professions as well as in manual and production jobs. In the
last few decades women have made great strides in narrowing the pay gap within professions and increasing their
numbers within traditionally male-dominated fields.

. Women tend to choose less-paying occupations because they provide flexibility to better manage
work and family. Women are less likely than men to choose high paying careers because they are worried about
combining family and career.

. . The
economic risk and resulting costs of a woman possibly leaving jobs for a period of time or indefinitely to nurse a
baby is cited by many to be a reason why women are less common in the higher paying occupations and upper
management.

Interesting read. This is the first time I have seen research on gender pay gap in Nigeria. I read through, only one seem to discuss the issue exhaustively. So clearly, men earn more money than women on the average. That's what the research shows.

Much of it has nothing to do with discrimination. It's mostly the choices women make. Quite Noble of them.

Since economic growth is largely dependent on the wellbeing of women, improving the status of women is not simply about social justice and human rights but economic growth. Unequal treatments bring about inefficient allocation of resources. A nation’s competitiveness is jeopardized when skilled workers from any segment are excluded arbitrarily from employment opportunities or prevented from working up to full potential because of discriminatory practices, hostile workplace environment, or unnecessary inflexible employment policies. Organizations who want to gain competitive edge and advantage cannot overlook necessary skills and experience merely because of gender. This is a principle underlying efforts to attract a diverse work force.

There is a wage penalty for married women with children in the paid-employment labour market, but motherhood is also negatively associated with income levels for self-employed women. We also find a fatherhood penalty for paid-employed men. Nevertheless, overall, the gender difference is higher in relatively less regulated self-employment compared to the more regulated paid employment labour market.

Discrimination accounts for a significant portion of gender wage gap, although it is larger in the private sector. Women selection bias is a prominent factor in the private sector, while it is not much of a concern in the public sector. The results also show the existence of glass ceiling in the public sector and sticky floor in the private sector. Policies to address discrimination against women either in wage setting or hiring process should be introduced in both sectors.

You just said it all....... my father once adviced me over the phone early in the morning but I didn't understand it then, now is clear to me. He said I should understand that in my marriage the only person who not my blood is my wife and the only person who can love me without anything attached to it are my kids. Honestly I never understood it until shit began to play out.

Belafonte:


This is nothing but sophistry and obfuscation that adds absolutely nothing of value to the thread.

You think any man wants to work at 1am or 2am? . Is it not common sense that of he hasn't reached his target he has to work more hours? You think Nigerian uber drivers just love waking up at 4am and getting home at 10pm? Smh

If this is the kind of logic you use in responding to your husband's arguments and assertions, no wonder he doesn't want to hear one more word from you. Some talk just makes one feel ill. smh

Pataricatering:
you sound like an idiot . You were hot and ready to believe the op without question even when he wasn't in the woman's head . How could he be do certain it wasn't cos of altruistic reasons she asked her husband to come home ? But hatred of women and the desperate need you lot have to criticise women whether it makes sense or not will not let you use your head.

thebosstrevor1:


Most of what you write, are from the handbooks of feminists as if these are the reasons men are stressed in our society today.

There are many married women employed in our society today, who will never bring out their money to spend on their family. They want their husband to spend all what he has on them while they keep theirs.

Nothing in this world is worth the stress and I will never allow any woman to stress me. Despite the stress men go through and the sacrifices they make on daily basis to make ends meet and to provide for the family, it will shock u to know that ur children will always choose their mother over u. The thought of this alone dey pain me! I came across a post on Facebook two days ago where a guy said he had 500k to share btwn his parent and that he need an advice on how to share the money...... I was surprised at the response I saw. 95% of the comments was for him to give his mom 450k and give the father 50k. Honestly I dropped tears
