Happy International Women's Day 💜💜💜💜

CHoccolaTE:
Hello Nairalanders,
What would you advice a woman who walked into the room and found her husband on top of another woman (having sex) to do?

What should be the best reaction for her at that moment?

Should she fight the husband and his female companion? Should she walk away?

Should she discuss with them calmly?

I need both male and female inputs please, thank you.

What is the best response for a woman who walked in on her husband sleeping with another woman?.
Thanks.

4. Leech Collectors
In the days before modern medicine, leeches were used for bloodletting, a medical practice in which doctors extracted blood from a patient to treat various diseases.

You might view this as a strange and barbaric practice, but leeches were actually in high demand by doctors.

So much so that there were people who collected them for a living.

These “leech collectors” often went into swamps and marshes to find the leeches.

They would use old horses, which the leeches attached themselves to, or the collector would use their own bodies to attract the leeches.

Can you imagine having to do this for a living?

XAUBulls:
That's awesome!

Stem cell therapy and gene therapy are already primed to disrupt the health sector.


@Apatheticme, how's it going?
I hope you had the time to take deeper breaths of fresh air and enjoy the holidays with your fam.

Whoa! So, as a doctor, what's your take on these cutting-edge disruptions in anti-aging research.

How are these disruptions going to affect your branch of medical practice employment-wise?

There will be need for some
foresight to be able to adapt IMHO.

XAUBulls:
This is deep... Very deep!

First off, yeah, "I know say you no go know wetin you dey reason when you choose the name"... Lol. That's why I nudged you on to explain how you coined the name which is quite unique. You cracked me up real hard when I saw how you wriggled out with a brilliant, amoebic response.

XAUBulls:
Whoa! The feedback you gave here on the regimented medical space floored me. The NMA and the
Nursing Council would only take drastic actions against these paternalistic and narcissistic med elders, if the younger medical professionals engage in mass protests. I guess the younger ones are too occupied with the pressures of daily living and the plans to leave for greener pastures in Saudi Arabia or the Western countries.

XAUBulls:
I love the sense of clarity you put into writing here and your use of spoken English with no typographic errors. Reading, writing, and public speaking must be part of your intense hobbies.

XAUBulls:
Take care @apatheticme... Ciao!

Klass99:
You rarely post but this is a nice and sound post . I would have loved to see the post XAU.Bulls mentioned because I'm sure the content was detail rich and valuable.

Klass99:
@Mystery2020, this thread is an accurate summary of workplace realities. I smiled when I saw the financial services sector topping the chart. That is one sector I never want to go back to in my lifetime, it was a very cutthroat, high stakes and high stress environment........and to think it was not even a traditional bank offering microfinance or commercial banking services.

XAUBulls:
Lol... How's it going Doc?
Yup, the faster than a "speeding bullet" way of post deletions has become the norm for some folks here.

You remind me of one of my favourite female Nlanders here who also likes to delete her posts, and she says it's her way of carrying out "detoxification." Her reason didn't resonate with me though when she told me that... but then she has a right of choice.

The elder medical personnel you talked about have to go for "Emotional Intelligence" crash-courses and trainings in order to be able to handle the needs of all medical personnel in this tech age where e-medicine is now the norm. The fact that they had their own early medical years in relatively "conservative settings" doesn't give them the right to demoralize the entire workforce.

As to the many challenges you've faced on the job, my take is that you really have to start gearing up for some Diasporan employment too like the folks who have left. There are useful threads here on NL for that as well and many of your colleagues frequently visit here [the Travel threads especially]. The Tech field may be experiencing some headwinds right now with the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank last [a major financier of about half of all Tech start-ups], and the cut in staff strength of many Tech companies such as FB, Twitter, etc, BUT the health sector space is lit right now.

Do have a lovely weekend ahead and I'll stay in touch to gain some more unique perspectives from you.

Thanks, and you too. Enjoy your weekend.

Ciao!


P.S. Just curious, what made you to choose the @apatheticme NL user name?

XAUBulls:
Doc apatheticme, what happened to your feedback to me that you posted right here?!

I earlier skimmed through it only once and I liked some of the feedback insights and perspectives but because of a prior work-related engagement, I had to re-schedule replying you.

I was just gearing up to reply you and now it's gone (i.e., your post). I'm trying hard to recall some of what I assume you wrote... so as to have a better convo/reply.

Instead of deleting the post so quickly like a "speeding bullet," there are folks that would have learned from your unique insights on the subject matter of the thread.

I've been a veteran member of NL since 2005 using my older NL account, so, I understand full-well the need to be circumspect here and why you didn't want to give too much out on location though.

XAUBulls:
How's it going @Apatheticme?... True that, your first paragraph is apt and resonates with me.

Second, do you work as a
healthcare professional in the health sector to have known about the "deep rooted bullying" you referenced here? I am stunned by this revelation.

I know about the reported bullyings and sexual harassments of some female soldiers in the U.S. and
Israeli armed forces by their male superiors, but the health sector just made my eyes widen in disbelief!

apatheticme:
Well since you asked for my opinion, that's a judgement well delivered.

Kobojunkie:
So in Islam, the reason why Allah has men as head of house is because Allah intentionally made women lesser in intelligence than the men?

That's a complete departure from the narrative given by the God of Israel though.

Gerrard59:
In my opinion, that guy did not make any sense. I have come across hard-working and well-cultured ladies who contribute immensely to themselves, their families and the workplace. I discussed with them frequently, so when he was told to change his environment, it was actually good advice. Honestly, I am proud of how my parents brought my siblings and me up because we no fit reason like this. There will always be the good and bad, handsome and ugly, and logical and illogical people in society. That said, I don't consider the average Nigerian man to be intelligent. Nigeria is a case study of how a country is when governed by unintelligent men, so the braggadocio that men are inventors and built successful societies does not apply to Nigerian men. Na white and East Asian men get those appellations. Interestingly, you would never see them make mouth o.

I think the major issue with these Ndi alfa meils is poverty because if na public education, I and my siblings and even these ladies I know all passed through the public education system. Hasty generalisations are not the right ways to look at issues holistically. On the other hand, Ndi feminists have their own faults, and one of the reasons alfa meilism rose is because of the extremism of Ndi feminism

6-17-year-old Meghan Vogel was in last place in the 3,200-meter run when she caught up to competitor Arden McMath, whose body was giving out. Instead of running past her to avoid the last-place finish, Vogel put McMath's arm around her shoulders, carried her 30 meters, and then pushed her over the finish line before crossing it.

Hey hello

BRATISLAVA:
Grandma marries Grandpa.

Everyone is happy.

Gamesmart:
Of course everyone should have a voice and be assertive. Those are not the problems.

It is your masculine attitude that makes me sure the only kind of man that can marry you must be feminine and docile.

This is what I saw in the OP and that I was sure your husband would exactly be like. You surely must walk all over him, while he is patient and trying to please you.

Gamesmart:
Aunty "civil" apatheticme, honestly this is how I imagine you talk to your husband, hence why I like to highlight it.

You be the boss for house jor.

Gamesmart:
I love your "civil banter". So I engage in it with you.

Gamesmart:
Civil is calling me an incel?

You are the one that described how a man should be.

I can only assume since you are married and of sound mental health, you chose that kind of man that would do as you say.

[b]Don't go around doing what you don't want done to you. [/b]You can do that with your husband, not me.

Take mine too as "banter".

Don't you just love how women like to minimise their wrongs with euphemisms!
