Phone and laptop repairing, how many males are really know it? They do half job and push it for u to come back in next two months to give them back for repair.

For fine art (not painting) I biliv u must have natural talent just like music , football or acting before you can Excel in the profession, be it male or female.
Most times, its a matter of interest and determination. You can learn anything and be good at it if you believe. Not all football players were born talented. So it is with any other area of skilled occupation. First, believe you can, have interest, be determined, and never give up. Practice makes perfect, they say. Who is an expert? Its someone who does the same thing over and over again, over 10,000 times. Go and try this and come back, then we will have further discussion on the topic.

You are deviating from my question, u said how many female bricklayers have you seen
Some women work in building sites bro and they do hard labor like the men working there because they need a job and need to support their spouses and families. So yes, I have seen some before.

No, it is not true that women are limited to only tailoring and hairdressing as handwork. Women can pursue a wide range of handwork and vocational careers just like men. There are many skilled professions and trades, such as carpentry, plumbing, electrician work, masonry, and more, that are not limited by gender. Gender should not be a barrier to choosing any career or profession, and it's essential to break down stereotypes and promote equal opportunities for all individuals regardless of their gender.

People who are Criticizing Isreal for fighting Hamas when Hamas has vow to wipe Isreal from the surface of the earth are hypocrites.
After all, it is Hamas that strike first this time around.

Moreover, Russia is calling for cessation of hostility between Isreal and Hamas. Someone should help me to ask Russia what they are doing in Ukraine territory.
Pot calling kettle black.

Na wetin concern me for now be that

Hi landers, there's this thing about female handwork that I have been thinking about, while growing up male child is open to different handwork which we all know, unlike the female ones that either learn tailoring or hairdresser/makeup, I would have added catering but they don't count that as handwork because it is something they easily learn from home, so there was a day I was having a conversation with my female colleague and she said she wants to learn makeup and then I asked her why, her reply was if she did learn makeup which other handwork can she learn apart from Hairdresser and Tailor, which brings the question apart from Hairdresser and Tailor which other handwork can a lady learn?

PS: I am not talking about online skills.
It's more of mindset limitation than actual limitation.

If you ever traveled out of Nigeria, you will then appreciate these so called "handwork" that Nigerians look than on.

As an example, in USA, you braiding cost as much as $300, that is without any materials, just workmanship.

As a tailor, just mending of cloth, its cost as much as $20/per.

Cutting of hair is from $50 upwards.


If you want to japa, learn "handwork" even if people are laughing at you, it will help you.

When they are married, I don't think they will be able to get back to business they will become full house wife. Rarely they do go back to business. Yeah. So that is why they don't usually take the job like a hardwork.. because the man is there the cashcow..
