If I start a company today and employ you as a personal assistant. Does that make you the owner as well?

Bill gave her the role she held in the company out of love.

Respect is not forced, it is earned. People have eyes and can see.

We all have seen the pain and sacrifices men have gone through to build and protect the world, hence the automatic respect they get today.

What have women done to earn such respect? Ask yourself.

The person she founded the organization with states it himself. But because they were married you guys can’t let go of your archaic ideas of what role each of them might have played in the creating of their success.

You want to tell me that you know better than bill gates what her role was in the foundation?

May I never be as clueless as you are

Maybe if you wanted to be successful like Bill, you could start by learning from and respecting the women in your life he did. As opposed to immediately taking a stance of disrespect the moment you see or hear about a woman’s success

Bill Gates on Monday thanked his ex-wife for her "critical contributions" to the organization.

"As a co-founder and co-chair Melinda has been instrumental in shaping our strategies and initiatives, significantly impacting global health and gender equality," he said.

"I am sorry to see Melinda leave, but I am sure she will have a huge impact in her future philanthropic work."

The organization's chief executive, Mark Suzman, said its name would change to simply the Gates Foundation.

"I truly admire Melinda, and the critical role she has played in starting the foundation and in setting our values, she has played an essential role in all that we've accomplished over the past 24 years," he said in a video posted to social media.

"I will miss working with her and learning from her . I look forward to seeing her continued impact

Berankis:
From this whole write up, I want to believe that Melinda Gates is separating to pursue a selfish feminists' agenda. All these women that always claim to be advocates for other less privileged women and children, just watch out for them, they don't always do it under their husband's oversight. They want to stand out, stand alone and appear like a heroine to other gullible folks that would want to go with them.

He’s not her husband

Why do you guys just randomly talk nonsense with so much conviction. No even sure what you are talking about

doggedfighter:
Coco, your use of words is top-notch. Well done,Nne !

🤭🤭🤭🤭

Chucks13:
Satan can never gives anything without taken it all back at a point.

Melinda may no good men marry a woman like you, you married Bill a born Christian with humble background but you dragged him into your satanist kingdom las las thing are falling apart right in front of Bill.

All parent pls pray this type of woman never see our son. Its disheartening.

He was good while he was having affairs in their marriage?

I don’t even dislike Bill Gates but you internet boys are insufferable

May your wife or future wife have as many affairs on you as Bill had on Melinda. Since that’s your definition of a good spouse

Benwallt:
The Jezebel has taken her share just for being Jezebel to a hardworking Adamic specie. Her pocket is full to brim

When was she being a jezebel? When Bill was having all his affairs while they were married?

You ignorantly think she had nothing to do with building the Gates’ wealth?

Your compulsive and intentional lack of respect for women will have y’all constantly talking out of your behinds like people without an ounce of critical thinking

WritterNg:
The richest men in the world today got rich through hardwork, dedication, sacrifice etc.

While the richest women got theirs through divorce, alimony payment, inheritance, child support (all came from Men).

There's a lesson there for men. If you like loose guard your money in the name of 🤡 🤡 lOvE 🤡 🤡

Money rules the world so you MUST protect your money with your life. Sign that Pre-nups today.

casualobserver:
BS! If you investigate well they are the same people giving us a bad name everywhere. If you had anything about you as a Nigerian, India Vietnam are not the type of countries on your destinations list. The type of Nigerians that go there are the ones that give us a bad rep, the ones who cannot go to other countries.

Well I don’t know anything about this. I have no opinions on this subject

casualobserver:
So why does a Nigerian want to go to their country?

I don’t know

Maybe personal reasons? Tourism? Some type of business?

Ask the OP what his reasons were

atobs4real:
We have also damaged every where with our bad reputation

Indians don’t have better reputation

The day they’ll come to wipe you out and take your land, they’ll call you a terrorist and everyone will cheer them on!

Hamas accepts Gaza cease-fire; Israel says it will continue talks but presses on with Rafah attacks

DasaintHope:
[color=#000000]
If only hamas were sensible enough to accept a ceasefire agreement, if nkt for anything in sympathy to their people's plight.
But hey, what do you expect from terrorists right?
They figured they could bank on online rage, and sympathy they get to leverage Israel.
Should have worked, but jews are not christains, they give zero bleeps about Public opinion. Fvck with them and recieve double bleeps. Hamas rattled the hornets nest, now the sting has come.
Let them face the music.
Meanwhile @op cannot manage to muster this much passion in speaking out against islamic terrorism, and the murderous rampage its proponents have been unleashing in countries like Nigeria (BH and Iswap) Or Isis/Isis or jihadist in Burkina Faso, or talk about the ethnic cleansing of kurds by Turkey, or the killing of Syrian civilians to the tune of 500k dead.
Or it is only against humanity when it is infidels killing Muslims?
Hypocrites, majority of them do not care for Palestinians per say, they are just a means to propagate anti-jew sentiment and hate in accordance to teaching from the book of copied stories called Quran.
op is An Islamist masquerading as a humanist, bro don't be unfortunate please.

We are above this brainwashing.

Speak for yourself

A lot of people aren’t. And they consider themselves wise too. There are millions still going to his church

Kobojunkie:
These men are simply evil in their every scheme which they hide behind the mentions of the name of God.

Seriously most of them lack a working conscience.

Kobojunkie:
It's more that he accuses God of being behind the whole scheme against accountability.

Right.
Like God is going to be upset with him if he’s transparent with the church expenses. That’s why he had to leave the room before he let them read the report. What kind of logic is this?

All this gibberish to say that he dearest being accountable to the donors of his church

I bought CG and smoked turkey necks. Hopefully get the chance to cook it this week.

OP unless the kid is a spitting image of you, one of your parents or one of your siblings, DNA is the only way for you to know.
Until then, zip up, use protection and care for the child you already sired.

Mikespecialone:
Na to go traditional

Mpanyi:
Let them be sure of what they are accusing the man of. In as much as I am not speaking for the man, men are endangered now where their female children are. Even I, I am always careful how I deal with my female children. It's a perverted world with pervert minds everywhere including your so-called wife

BFFR. 🙄

There are stupid male celebrities that make a fool of themselves every now and then, from Samklef to Black faze to Drake and Kendrick Lamar recent beef, but when you're blinded by agenda, you can not see anything else contrary to it.

Oh this is the one!

They are always ready to give men grace but let it be a woman 🙄

The OP has a very brilliant younger sister who is discerning enough to recognize these things at her age, but he's here asking for ways to cut her wings and subdue her. Tomorrow, when she goes after men for survival, he will still be the one to come here and cry foul.

Because they are complainers.
All they do is complain about women. Damned if we do damned if we don’t!

GloriousGbola:
If you can tell the lowest underachieving male that he is better than the highest achieving female, he wont even notice you are winding him as you sell him red piller books and merchandise.

Exactly. It’s a grift!

They are too slow to see it

givedemwotowoto:
I am not the only one complaining here so stop throwing stones while living in a glass house

Back to my question

Why aren’t you guys going for the homely, traditional, submissive (etc) women?

Why are you wasting time complaining about those who don’t want to be the way you want them to be? When there are other women literally throwing themselves down as doormats for you in the way that you desire. What’s the issue?

givedemwotowoto:
No. A lot of men aren’t afraid of ending up alone. They’re tired of breaking up with women who are good looking but have no relationship skills, very clueless and don’t even know they are.

Like I said, there are plenty of women with “relationship skills” who believe in strict traditional gender binaries.

They are not hard to find. Wife them up and stop complaining

Except that’s not the point for you guys is it? You want women who don’t want you. so you can have something to complain about

The beauty of feminism is ✨choice✨

No one decides for anyone.

Since men don’t want feminists why aren’t y’all going for the non-feminists? All the time you’re spending whining online about women who don’t want to be traditional, you can spend it chasing after the traditional women. The women who want to be under you. The women who want to be “necks under the head”. The women who think you should decide for them how their lives ought to be.

There are millions of them. They come online everyday to talk trash about feminists. They are your foot soldiers helping you further your cause. Why do you ignore them when looking for who to mate with?

givedemwotowoto:
You are deciding for the next generation that don’t care about struggling with life the way you did.

Why must a woman who is not interested in being single have to pay her own bills by herself all her life, struggle with life by herself all because her mother was trying to cheat nature?

Many young black women today are complaining that nobody wants them, that’s the problem. They also want to be married like their colleagues from other races, but they were not raised with good relationship skills by their single parents especially mothers.

theredaddy:
they don't have my contact, but there lifestyle is enough testament
what other reason will make men avoid these women like plague
For a Nigeria standard of feminist, toke, linda, tonto are feminist ... we've seen toke and tonto cry on social media tired of loneliness, how does it depict "Happy"

Whenever you’re asked to respond intelligently on what your measure of a woman’s happiness is, y’all dumbly without fail revert to the most asinine response ever which is “oh but they don’t have a man”.

As if that’s the only thing needed in a woman’s life in order for her to be happy. I know you desperately want to believe that.

Let the men avoid them like plagues if they want, that’s not a measure of misery, happiness or success for a woman. You guys are deathly afraid of ending up alone and you often project that onto women

Hate to break it to you.

Marriage isn’t the measure of success in women’s life.

The fewer people get and stay married , the better those marriages are. Gone are the days of being married by fire or by force even while suffering in the marriage

givedemwotowoto:
Before feminism gained momentum in the black community there was about 80% chance of black women getting married in America. Today only about 25% of black women will find husbands in America. Some of you use outliers as examples and don't know the consequences of what you're encouraging

just wait

Their pick mes are about to come and argue with you that these things don’t happen anymore. 🙄

etrange:
You may not see it because you aren't the one on the receiving end, and that's okay. The problem only arises when it's presented to you and you still find ways to dismiss them. I'll give you a few and it's going to be one hell of a long list:

- Do you know that ladies don't get late parent's inheritance in many traditional settings?
- Do you know that a man can send his wife parking without a dime in Nigeria regardless of how long they've been together?
- Do you know there's a huge pay gap between men and women at work?
- Do you know that ladies are still forced into marriage today?
- Do you know that many landlords won't rent out thier spaces to single ladies today?
- Do you know child marriage is still a thing today?
- Do you widows are still made to go through spiritual rites to prove they didn't kill her husband?
- Do you know some ladies still get mutilated?
- Do you know fathers beat thier daughters to pup for having a boyfriend?
- Do you know that men are considered first for management positions at work and political positions, and ladies are only considered when their track records are overly obvious? This implies that women need to work twice as hard to be there.
- Do you know that many educated women are doing small businesses today because thier husbands believe "someone has to run the home" or because their spouses are threatened by the the possibility of them becoming career ladies?

The list is endless, yet all these are more or less institutional and they are NOTHING compared to societal perception and gender stereotypes below:

- Do you know that women are judged by what they put on but we all went on a huge protest when SARS started profiling guys based on thier outfit/hairstyle.
- Do younknow that a woman with a cheating husband is expected to fight for her marriage and find a way to regain his interest while a cheating wife should be sent home?
- Do you know that when a lady get raped today, many people still ask "what was she doing at his place? What was she wearing? Why did she accept his money? Etc."
- Do you know that when a man commits a crime, we all come on this app to criticize him, but when it's a lady, everyone starts insulting the gender "fear women", "Nigerian women are useless", "women of now-a-days", etc.
- Do you know that when a corps member sleeps with his students who indicated interest in him and creates a thread about it on here, many people gather to talk about how these girls are spoiled and not about the adult that took advantage of a teenager?
- Do you know that Davido went around sleeping with different women and getting them pregnant and him that slept with multiple people isn't a hoe, but the individuals he slept with are called hoes even though they were exclusive with him when it happened?
- Do you know that most families reduce the potentials of thier girl child by teaching her how to be a good wife and not how to survive on her own? She does the cleaning and cooking, she learns how not to dress, she learns how to speak gently like a lady, etc. while the boys go out there to explore, make mistakes, learn from them and build the confidence required to push through life as an individual.
- Do you know that morality in society is degenerating and people still believe it's because girls of now-a-days are into money or because they sleep around?
- Do you know that a girl that goes into a guy's to indicate interest in him is a hoe but a man that does it is a sharp shooter?
- Do you know that merely being a lady in the entertainment industry gets you labeled as a hoe?
- Do you know that regardless of how successful a single or divorced lady is, people will still focus on the fact that there is no man in her life?
- Do you know about 90% of all the ladies on this platform left between 2014 to 2024 due to the growing sexism on here?
- Do you know that I only stopped typing cause I have things to do and nor because there isn't more to type?
- Do you know that most guy would quickly dismiss all these as 'imagined' or by saying 'oh, we have issues too'?


You see, feminism is about gender equality. Fighting for equality isn't all about changing the written laws, it's also about changing mindset and empowering women. To be a feminist isn't about hating men or not cooking at home. It's about freedom of choice and equal playing ground. It's not against men (except you really believe one gender should be superior to the other). In fact, feminism will help reduce the pressure on men in our society today. When a feminist preaches, they don't target men alone, they also target all those overly dependent women that you all complain about (the urgent 2k and those that bring nothing to the table). Therefore, we should all be feminists.

The OP has a very brilliant younger sister who is discerning enough to recognize these things at her age, but he's here asking for ways to cut her wings and subdue her. Tomorrow, when she goes after men for survival, he will still be the one to come here and cry foul.

theredaddy:
Are you saying the likes of Tonto dikeh, linda ikeji, toke makinwa and co. Lives don't reflect the aforementioned

I don’t know about Linda but when did Tonto and Toke ever tell you that they’re feminists?

You just see women looking good on the internet out of your reach and conclude they are feminists?

That being said, what’s the measure of misery in any of these ladies? Who says they are not happy?

Is that another one of the lies you tell yourselves to make yourselves feel good about them not wanting you?

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.
