How many women does it take to make an exception?
if they are in the fewest minority, then it's an exception to the rule. men are still responsible for 99% of all human achievements in the last 30 years. so where exactly are women pulling the trees? who are the female equivalents of steve jobs, bill gates, seun osewa or they didn't have female classmates in school?

The West still has gender biases, hence the emergence of feminists. The gender roles still remain, marriages remain. The idea that women were 'created' to support men remains. While men build careers, women are advised to sit at home for the sake of the family and supplement.
if there's a gender bias in the west, it's against the men. equal opportunities for both genders mean more boys willing to take their careers to the very top are being denied admission for the girls. the girls get admitted quite alright & sometimes graduate only to abandon their careers for other less-mentally tasking fields or become a full housewife.

You still are not answering the question.
i don't understand your question - rephrase it or choose other words to make it more intelligible. no one has overcome the curse in eden so i dunno what you talking about....

Gender is a social construct. Gender is how a society forms a social role for each sex, expects them to play it out. If a society instructs women to play secondary social roles within the society, the women fulfilling those roles would have secondary relevance. Hence in African communities, men tend to be the astrophysicists, the politicians and powerbrokers AND the women end up in the kitchen.

However amongst the women trapped in the confines of the kitchen are gems and geniuses who would have made impacts in the world. Because the few women that have liberated themselves have become Indian female scientists were able to launch a sophisticated space program on Mars, established jurists like Lady Hope of the UK Supreme Court, and the female justices in the US Supreme Court, the former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Marie Curie who was responsible for the earliest research on nuclear activity, Hypatia of Alexandria etc.
you are only mentioning the few exceptions to the rule - when i write, i speak about what generally obtains. women have been liberated in britain for more than 100 years yet only 9% of all british engineers are females.

so why isn't it 50-50?
did their society condemn their women to the kitchen. even in america, the percentage of the female engineers are less than 20%. it's baffling that more females actually get admitted for this STEM courses than males but majority of them change their career path shortly after graduation.

why is this? it's simple - they cannot cope with what the roles demand. you can preach gender equality till the cows come home but the fact remains roles that are more mentally tasking suit the men more than the women. it's not any attempt to denigrate women - this is just the fact.

Hence I asked, if it was courageous and worthy to overcome a divine curse. Which you have not answered.
i don't see how humans have overcome or conquer any divine curse. women still earn lower than men on the average. women still toil to make ends meet. women still go through pangs of pain and sometimes die while giving birth. so tell me, which divine curse did they overcome?

My extended family is the same. I asked and I think it is borne out of culture and what they feel should be upheld. The expectations from the incoming spouse and how they respect those expectations to avoid conflict. Also when there is a problem between couples it is easier to resolve when both families come from similar backgrounds. Etc.
i see it differently....
if there's a problem between the couple, it should be easier to resolve if they are from different backgrounds as familiarity poses its own problem - chiefly contempt.

Chai! So basically, you are more intelligent than all the women on the same level playing field as you? And any woman more intelligent than a man is because he was/is less privileged?
very correct!
there's a reason women are much at peace with courses that are less mentally tasking like nursing, hairdressing, buying & selling, temps, receptionist, etc whereas men are mostly doing the more mentally tasking jobs like astro-physics, advanced engineering, etc. it's not even debatable. men are better at it than women.

I thought men are generally more intelligent than women, so who are these women that are more intelligent then those men you called dullards?
of course, men are generally more intelligent than women on the same level playing field. this doesn't mean you will not find women who are intelligent than some men(who are less-privileged).

now, when a woman is becoming too old to attract men in her dating pool, she compromises her standard & jump into another pool to attract the men there. so it's not uncommon to see a woman marrying a younger man, a poorer man or a less intelligent man.

her hands were forced to take that decision - it is not what she woulda done or wished for in her early 20s when her stock was still on the rise. no woman in her prime will deliberately marry down, they always marry up unlike men who can marry whatever suits him.

I don't like these kinds of debate cos its always very chauvinistic, how are you sure if a woman marries a man less intelligent, their marriage won't work? Who told you genny can't marry a village boy? How are you certain? Hypergamy is not gendered, it might generally be used to refer to women marrying up, that doesn't mean men don't and can't marry up.
if she marries a less intelligent man then she shouldn't complain when the man's ego gets in her way. no woman should marry a man that is less intelligent than her. your man should be leading you & not the other way round. naturally, no woman even wants that unless her situation has gotten desperate.

genny can't marry a village boy. who before genny married a village boy? women always marry up - the only time you see her marrying down is if her value in the dating market has crashed. no woman in her prime would choose a dullard, a villager, etc to marry.

call a spade a spade, abeg!

You didn't answer my question as to how long they'll keep failing based on the man's decision?
the man should lead - they can't keep failing cos she married a man that is intelligent than her. if it's a situation where he's a dullard, then she married the wrong partner from the outset & that marriage is doomed.

You are going religious on me with this your submission talk cos its religion that preaches 'submissiveness', I don't do religion.

And he didn't choose her out of the billions of women out there throwing themselves at him? Why can't he trust her judgment? If these two persons who chose each other out of many to become husband and wife can't agree on a thing, it is best to find a tie breaker my darling, that way, whoever fails, accepts responsibility and learns how to leave room for another person to make decisions cos no one can always be right.

The husband makes the decisions and they fail together, how long will they keep failing together based on one person's decisions?
men don't marry out of hypergamy.
a man can marry up or marry down. kanu nwankwo was making £40,000 per week in the UK when he chose to marry an 18-year-old girl in the village.

do you think genevieve can marry a village boy? that's the difference! men marry for different reasons. women don't - he must be taller, richer, more intelligent, etc before she can choose him out of the lots. women are hypergamous, men aren't!

as a woman, you should never marry a man that is less intelligent than you. that marriage is doomed!

since they are married, the wife should submit to her hubby if he's convinced his decision is right. if they fail, they fail together & if they succeed, they succeed together.

when you choose one man out of the 100 suitors you have, you've technically chosen the one you think is the best out of the lot to lead you. this is why you should trust his judgement when such rare cases come up.

Just stop and think about the good things in your life. You have life, you have good health and you have hope. Do you have a plan to use all these good things? Stop, think and plan your way out. It gets worse before it gets better. Just take time out to think and plan. But be very flexible just in case a plan does not work. That does not mean there are no alternatives, there are. You just have to find the right alternative. When you dig yourself out of what you think you are in right now, nothing in life will ever affect you so much again. Even if you lose it all again. Because you will understand that in any situation, you can get yourself to a better place if you just have a plan in place.

is it a short man's fault that he's short? yet you won't date him cos of his height? everyone can bring up excuses why it isn't their fault the way they are too. at the end of the day, one's preference is one's preference.

our kids!
i have contributed my own quota, she should contribute her own while retaining her beauty & the body features that made me choose her out of the 1 million candidates.....no excuses!

If you cant stand such sight, several option exist
1. DO NOT have kids.
why not? other women with kids & no stretch marks nko? did they drop from another planet?

2. make sure she uses shea butter and eat moderately during her pregnancy. Dont scratch.
that's her responsibility, not mine. if given the chance, you would tell a husband to make sure his wife brushes her teeth or changes her panties......shouldn't a woman know that herself?

3. get her a laser treatment.

So also men should precondition their mind if they see things like this associated with pregnancy.
Like I said, it is treatable.
that's the difference....
a woman's vaginä will not close up cos she cannot stand her partner's body. a man might fail to get an erëction if he doesn't like something on his partner's body - when there's no erēction, there cannot be sėx.
