I recently went home to check on my parents. It happens that our lastborn who is in a boarding school also was around for a week break they were given at school.
On one of the evenings as I was talking to her and her dreams and aspirations this 16 old girl told me she wanted to become a Feminist. I was shocked but remained calm and gently asked her what she meant by being a Feminist.
She told me that by that she aims to become an advocate of women's right. She started narrating how men are domesticating women and whole lots.
I was marvelled at her passion and zeal and how convincing she was .
Deep down I knew that I have a problem to solve and I needs pragmatic steps in order not to cause more harms.
This girl has written her JAMB with nice scores and will soon be in the varsity.
Please, is there anyone with concrete approach on how I will go about this? her school principal is her influencer. She's on nairaland with the moniker cococandy |

I don’t see any problem here, what’s wrong against advocating for women’s right. Feminism as it is, is the political and economic liberation of women all over the world and we need more women, young girls to wake and stand against all form of gender segregation and stereotypes against women.
Feminism is not a woman refusing to cook for her husband or whatever you think it is. It is both men and women standing on equal grounds in the society. shut up. Men and women can never be equal. You must be very stupid for saying men and women should stand equal in the society 1 Like |

What's wrong in being a feminist though? A feminist is someone who supports equal rights for women. I don't see anything wrong there. Even as a man you should support women having equal rights, or do you want your daughters to be less in life? Don't you want your daughters to have equal opportunities in life?
By the way, feminist is not a career. She's obviously a child and doesn't know what she really wants to do with life yet. Feminism or being a full time advocate is not a career. What you should do is guide her on how to become a women's advocate while in whatever field she chooses. 3 Likes |

But he won’t be able to because it’s not true. These things only happen in your imagination COOL10:
All you need to do is show her how lonely, depressed, bitter, toxic, sexually starved, ridiculously aggressive, and shameless modern day feminists are.
If she doesn't want to end up like the many 49 year old bitter, ugly, evening newspaper wanna-be feminists that we have on nairaland, who instead of worrying about the fact that their mates are happily married with beautiful children, decide to (since they're so jobless) spend all their time arguing with young men on this forum about senseless things, then she should better listen to you.
Feminists are bitter people. Don't let the supposed career success of few of them deceive you. Deep down, they die everyday because no man wants them. Ask your sister if she really wants that for herself.

I noticed that on some social media space especially X, the term “Feminism” is mostly misused by those woke girls who’s only job are to wake up in the morning and be pretty for their cameras. Whatever social injustice they might had bear is nothing compared to that of a woman who’s due for a promotion since the last 4 years but can’t get it because she’s a woman. A woman that has refused to open her legs to get fvuked for what’s duly hers. And yet she gets mocked every now and then and her male colleagues are trying everything to make whatever space she has at toxic.
I am a woman and I suffer social and emotional injustice every now and then. I'm sorry about your struggles. However these don't sound like feminist issues to me. What is feminism? It can best be understood by what gave rise to it in the first place. Feminism, like any other major social issue deals with the restructuring of society to drive equality. To be a feminist at that time meant to identify with the idea that women deserved equal rights because they were no less human than men. In the modern day, in most developed countries, this has been achieved, including in Nigeria where there is no major right that men have that women don't have. You can go to school, work, and vote and be voted for. You can buy and own property. These are the rights the original feminists fought for. So, now that you've been put on an equal footing with men, what more are you fighting for on a systemic level? Coming back to why I'm saying the things you mentioned are not feminist issues, if your boss wants to sleep with you to give you a raise, this is against the law. Your problem is a basic labour law issue and the fact that you're a woman doesn't then necessarily make it a feminist issue. Just like a man can be denied a promotion because his boss feels threatened by him or the boss is a randy female - that wouldn't require a meninist movement. It just requires the application of existing laws. 2 Likes |

Hmmm....OP let me inquire something from you!
Does ur parents practice patriarchy or matriarchy system?
If it's matriarchy,then that might be part of d problem....
Has ur sis been boarding right from her secondary school?
If true then,then is it a mixed or only girls school?
If it's an only girls school,then then that could also mould her mentality!
Boarding secondary school in my opinion is no longer like before whether mixed or single!
She is attending an all girls catholic school |

I can already tell that she’s probably growing up without an active father figure! She doesn’t know the value of having a man in her life, and the sad reality is, her mother won’t tell her the pains she’s going through doing it all alone.
Let’s be very clear, today’s feminism isn’t about advocating for women’s rights, it’s about dominating and hating on men including your husband and even father.
She’ll end up struggling her whole life alone and then realizing it wasn’t worth it.
A good way to help her is to find a retired lonely feminist who is back to preaching reality for women shut up Even you from this crap writeup shows that you're one of those broke alpha male hating women. |

Please, is there anyone with concrete approach on how I will go about this? First things first. How is your parents' relationship? If she is talking of men domesticating women, she is talking from the examples she has seen around her or what she has absorbed online. Either ways, it is not good for you. Find the source of what is fanning her thoughts and deal with it from there. And guide her from the trap that a 'woman's advocate is a feminist': they are two different concepts. |
