. If u check my post well u wil discover dat I didn't include little children dre but was rather throwin lite on adults, for those who raped little children, its obvious d r possess or r in one ccult or the other. Hope am clear on dat?

Yes. Also blame evils spirits or cults. Never the culprits

aninexzy:
Honestly speaking I have mix feelings for ds topic cos d way some ladies purposely dress half unclad is nothing 2 write home about. Datz y men dat cant control themselves wen ladies turn dem down chooses rape as an option.

Then this awareness is for you. Stop the victim blaming

Zoehill:
OP, tell your staff to be more professional in their approach towards men. Most men love to taste forbidden fruits but if she appears to be professional and straight she will be respected. Do you know that some ladies smile TOO MUCH with men when passing informing around? that could be sensed to be a yes while some ladies wish to earn more from men thinking they are gullible.

So someone smiles too much and that's an invitation to sex? Typical. Blame everyone but the culprits

Because most men are hypocrites. They want faithful and reserved women but can't wait for the slightest opportunity to molest someone else's woman who happens to need something from them.

If they had the power, heavens would fall should someone else try to treat their daughters the way they treat other women.

Their response is laced with subtle accusations. Died without illness, we refused autopsy bla bla bla like they are doing the woman a favor. If you feel he was killed request a damned autopsy and stop the snidely orchestrated accusations.

What's their business with the man's wealth? They just jumped in to manage his wealth and oversee his ministry. Is it their place? Some in-laws don't realize they come second to the wife in terms of what a man owns. She and him were partners hence they don't have the right to oversee anything without her say so.

And what sound counsel did she refuse? Theirs? Such arrogance and highhandedness. Y'all effing go mind your own homes and wives. Plebs.

It's just ignorance plain and simple. No will, no life insurance. Nothing.
BTW this can also apply to the wives. It must not be the men who have to make a will or have life insurance. Once you have a family, you should be open to such things in case of any unforeseen events. But we are to superstitious to be reasonable.

Take me there.

I really feel like buying something now. All of it.

Sorry I wasn't in the mood to debate. So I didn't even read it. Just didn't want to be ride and act like I was ignoring you. Replying you would have warranted a long post. Just not up to that these days. Sometimes.

TV01:
...ah! See cheating, baba'nla ojoro . I made a comment - maybe a little tongue in cheek for emphasis - and get labelled a sexist. I back it up with reason and you tacitly demur, but leave the label . Nicely played

I'm happy to be challenged, have no problem being called out, and I'm not beyond reproach, but play fair na? Then when it gets heated, I get blamed for that too .

Anyway, back to the convo. We obviously come from different positions, but with no reason or relative facts, what's the point? So, let me ask you specifically, and anyone in general, this question;

If there had never been any historical, and there was no current oppression, of either sex, and if there were no social norms or imperatives advantaging, or restraining either sex, based on make-up only, would great inventors be pretty much split evenly between male and female?

Shawarma

Most of it goes without saying. Especially about governance and crime.

I don't care what anyone says. Its irresponsible. Except she's very rich.

TV01:
Nope, I saw one - the first - who could be considered a creator, then a bunch of mostly entrepreneurs. Males such as Richard Branson and Dangote would not make the equivalent list for men because they make, not create. And a great education is less a factor in being a successful entrepreneur.


As I defined it. Inventing ab initio. Talent shows transform lives, so do lottery wins . We are talking a different type of transformation here. Not re-creating or even improving. And not buying & selling .

Sexism? Me . I speak plain truth. Look, how many women are nerds? How many would spend hours in a dark room trying to perfect something arcane? Obsessed with something they may not even be able to fathom the practicalities of at the time?

How many women are bird spotters,or spend inordinate amounts of time tinkering with old machines or waxing lyrical over the engineering of suspension bridges?

How many women dream of conquering the hood, the next country, the seas, or the distant planets, as opposed to the local shopping mall .

It's simply the way men are. The nerdiness, the obsessiveness, the curiosity, the drive, the ambition. Those are what lead to breakthroughs, even when they may not be being sought. A lot of transformational stuff is happenstance. Take gaming for example - and I personally don't get it - it's mostly men, mostly nerds, but the advances have been rapid It's wiring.

Sure women have it, women can do it, but not to the same degree. And I am all for them having the equal opportunity to avail themselves of it, if they so desire. It's not sexist, it's realist.

It seems you are set on seeing it through an ideological lens which says there is no difference between men and women, and the difference in achievement or representation is due to oppression (historic or current). But with "oppression" eliminated or factored, there would still be a gap.

Women want the bag, men want to be able to buy the bag for them. Balance, you know that's what you want . But seriously, more men may be at the cutting edge than women, but most men won't be anywhere near it either.

Mindfulness:
We need food before we start sipping Bacardi.

Let's go to a busy place by the sea where we can eat, drink and dance.

But wait a moment ............................ we need a second outfit, don't we?

One can never go wrong with food.
Okay we selected your outfit.

Here's mine. Also doing a materialgirl dress in burgundy. Envelop clutch purse by Kate spade New York
Shoes by ... I don't really care. Any designer will do. And belt by Michael kors. Ditch the leggings too.

Do you know any fun places by the sea. Remember we have stilettos on. So they must have a concrete walk path.

That is gorgeous

All set. Now where are we going?

Mindfulness:
There is an occasion for every style one can think of.

Mindfulness:
I like the first one best.

Now imagine the shoes ...

I have a very clear vision here.

Are you a stilettos girl?

So it's only the bag maker you saw on that list? And yes she can represent the female folk because not only does she make bags as you put it, she influences lives with her female empowerment programs, philanthropy and foundations. Trust you to try belittle something beautiful just because a woman is the one doing it.

What's your definition of real transformation? Do you know how many people's lives she has transformed? Pls don't be guided by blind sexism.

TV01:
...so, we are talking Inventors, innovators that bring real transformation, and creators of cutting edge technology. And they present handbag makers to represent women .

Women do not have the same burden of performance that men do and are not typically as well-equipped, driven, or as ambitious to pioneer and break new ground. Even if all things were equal, they'd still lag, as they simply do not have the same desire or capacity for plain old hard work. Hence they will continue to be under-represented at that creator/innovator echelon, with or without a level playing field.

Good thing too, we need them mainly to birth and raise the innovators and creators, not be them.

Where is the picture?

This one is by Materialgirl.com from Macy's
I love their dresses because of the Lacey patterns. Yum. I like lace.

I have it in the yellow also from Macy's. (Second pic)

But if you don't like too much lace. (Which I suspect. Right or wrong?) Third pic is for you. That bag against a LBD? You're set for the night lady.

Mindfulness:
I live in a world of fantasy and love it.

The first one you posted is goregous. I absolutely love it. Which dress would I wear with it ...?

Wear it with a LBD.

Let the color pop.

I should have become a pastor instead. Is it too late?

These two are in my shopping cart. For now.


Help myself? Like I can just reach into my phone and grab them.

Mindfulness:
Which one(s) would you like to have? Help yourself.

maybe he resorted to homosexuality because your fellow girls refused giving him pussy. Just saying.

I bet these enraged folks are more upset he had homosexual sex with them rather than the fact that they are underage

eyinjuege:
The world is changing. Women are catching up. There were centuries of gaps between men and women in terms of education. Even in the developed world centuries ago, women were not deemed fit to retain or study to have any knowledge.
I think women are doing absolutely just fine catching up with the men. It's just a matter of time.
We now have house husbands or stay at home dads, and that's nothing to be ashamed of provided it's a joint decision between spouses.
In Naija, the men would rather die than admit they're house husbands, but we have a lot of them around, but they still have the luxury of not contributing anything to the home, and still have their wives come home to clean up after them
A lot of women are the ones keeping their homes running these days both home and abroad. Most women's money are spent on the home.
Women no longer do "alabodo".
Everybody is shouting Zuckerberg, how many men will ever attain the kind of wealth he has? But we are having more women bridging the gap amongst your everyday regular and middle class folks.
It's just a matter of time......

Jennifer Doudna’s discovery could cure tons of diseases — or create superbabies.

Jennifer Doudna developed CRISPR, a method of genetic engineering that allows scientists to make precise genetic changes relatively easily. Last November, CRISPR saw its first major success in two female monkey twins, Mingming and Lingling, who were born healthy but with specific genetic mutations created through the technology.

But it’s not without drama: The development of CRISPR ignited the scientific world with controversy after Chinese researchers had experimented with genetic engineering on a human embryo.

Doudna is a professor of molecular and cell biology at the University of California at Berkeley.

Elizabeth Holmes

Holmes originally founded the company in Palo Alto, California as Real-Time Cures to "democratize healthcare."[6][9] She changed the company's name to Theranos (an amalgam of "therapy" and "diagnosis".[10]

Theranos claimed to have developed a blood-testing device named "Edison" that uses a few drops of blood obtained via a finger-stick rather than vials of blood obtained via traditional venipuncture,[11] using microfluidics technology.[12] Its founders have raised over $700 million from investors, valuing the company at $9 billion, without their testing device ever being subject to peer-reviewed study.[13] As of 2014, Holmes held 18 U.S. patents and 66 non-U.S. patents. She is also listed as a co-inventor on over 100 patent applications.[6]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Holmes

She’s among nine of America’s 50 richest self-made women to become multimillionaires – or billionaires – before the age 50. These entrepreneurs and executives hit the jackpot in everything from entertainment to fashion to translation services.

Tory Burch

Burch began her fashion label – "TRB by Tory Burch", later known as Tory Burch – in February 2004, launching it with a retail store in Manhattan's Nolita district.[5][13][14] Most of the inventory sold out on the first day.[15][16] When Oprah Winfrey endorsed her line on The Oprah Winfrey Show in April 2005, calling Burch "the next big thing in fashion", Burch's website received eight million hits the following day.[17][18]

Since launch, the company has grown to include 180 Tory Burch stores worldwide.[19] The fashion line, which encompasses ready-to-wear, shoes, handbags, accessories, watches, home decor, and a fragrance and beauty collection, is also carried at over 3,000 department and specialty stores worldwide.[16][20]

In 2015 Burch also introduced a separate performance activewear line, Tory Sport, with a dedicated website and a pop-up shop.[21][22][23] A stand-alone store on Fifth Avenue in New York, as well as boutiques in East Hampton and Dallas, followed in 2016.[24][25][26]

Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, who is 40, and YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki, who is 46, owe their multimillion-dollar fortunes to being among the first employees to join Google in the late 1990s. Another young tech CEO, 42-year-old Houzz cofounder Adi Tatarko, caught up with the Google veterans despite being a relative newcomer. She started the home design website with her husband, Alon Cohen, in 2009 and now has an estimated $300 million to her name thanks to the company’s $2-billion-plus valuation.

Timbuktou,

how much wealth have you created so far?

You can tell your daughters they can't make it far in life, let us tell our daughters the opposite.

jaybee3:
I'm taking the qouted comment as a pinch of salt cos i know you are way better than that

Anyhoo, when next are you going bag shopping cos i need ideas as something tells me bags are the way to Funke's coochie heart

Maybe Before the week runs out. I've a better idea. Send me the money so I'll be her personal shopper. Just don't query or google the prices.

There are husbands and there are Husbands.

jaybee3:
She once dated a drug baron so it's highly unlikely she bought it with her money.
Just the same way they fly first class all over the place without having a legitimate source of income

I bet coochie is recession proof

her boyfriend's money is her money

*runs away

But there are many people like that. Also 'comfortably' is subjective. Maybe all they do with their savings is to buy designers instead of more land at orile.
And they are comfortable that way.

See this gentleman. You're pulling my legs @bold shey. me buy you one?

jaybee3:
You have to be just about above middle class to comfortably afford $1k bag without flinching

Look at it from the context of minimum wage and % of those in that wage bracket.

Oya come and buy me one now coco

jaybee3:
I dey gbadun your shopping trips mehn
O shey baddest

really? Cool.

anonimi:
Me sef I dey wonder oh.
Sleep at this time?
Abi you sef "work" all night long ni?

I did work all night long. Life is not easy my brother. I need to buy my own $5k purse by Christmas

anonimi:
Maybe, maybe, or!
You do well.
She can simply show us her Personal Income TAX returns and we will know she can afford this even from the gifts of her rich boyfriend/fiance. Why do you think that should be difficult for someone who already showed the receipt for her tee shirt?
Na so the boyfriendS go just dey explore all angles of her body for her to make the money for the N2 million fake bag.
Mtchew!!!

you're taking it personal.

I can imagine a Zimbabwean carrying an expensive bag and what the value would like be in their currency. It would would like an amount you can use to buy a car when in truth it can't sustain anyone for a few months. Same thing with naira now. The value has so gone down. Things bought in dollars now sound more expensive than they used to be. Not long ago that bag (original) would have been calculated at about 800k
It wouldn't be causing the same uproar then like it is doing now. That's why I said stop the conversion. I know she earns in naira.

Anyway make I go sleep. I don't even know why I'm defending her when I never chop. lol .

anonimi:
Abeg I thought that she is a Nollywood actress in Nigeria earning in Naira?
Did I make a mistake
Perhaps na Hollywood for Los Angeles, USA na there she dey "strut her stuff" such that she earns in $$$$$$$.
Anyway I dey here dey wait for her Personal Income TAX returns. I am sure she will soon show it to us the same way she shared the receipt of her cheap tee shirt.
If she no show her TAX receipt na to send EFCC and DSS for her place to find out where she got the money laundering tinz from.
