Homguy:
A man is the head of the family. The cannot be two heads and as the head he deserves a total submission from his wife. If a wife's submission is less than total. There are cases where the man may need to make decisions regardless of his wife's stand, however with her welfare and that of the family at large as his guide.

More, the bible regards Jesus as the head and husband of the church, and mandates a total, unflinching submission to him. Thats the model marriages should take. Do not let modernism cloak your mind if you really crave to live a fulfilled, blessed life .

pls show us where and where in your bible the above bolded is stated

.

AVRecruit:
you have not even made any valid point. train your daughters to be prostitutes then.

And you made a valid point? Good luck telling your daugther at what age she should bring home a husband and if she fails to comply by all means go out an arrange one for her... is that point valid enough for you.... btw if you still have unmarried sisters start practising this your neo-medieval proposition on them.

Teempakguy:
Your first statement is at direct odds with the official definition of feminism.

fem·i·nism
ˈfeməˌnizəm/
noun
noun: feminism

the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.

that exact statement is more true of egalitarianism.

you know what, just stop. stop it. if you really want equality, be an egalitarian.

---

I don't understand why many people prefer to be feminists, rather than egalitarian. the definition of feminism isn't even equality. It's advocacy for women's rights, which is assuming, from the start, that women don't have these rights. when all evidence is to the contrary. women have every right men have. go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_rights and tell me which men have that women don't. It's not that women don't have these rights, it's they're note exploiting it to the same level as men. and feminists can't explain this. so they reach the bizarre conclusion that men are Oppressing women.

what . . . the Bleep? not enough female engineers means male engineers are oppressing women? not enough female physicists and mathematicians are men oppressing women? that in itself is sexist and misandrist. and if you tell them this, they'll instantly call you misogynist!

they even coined the word "patriarchy" to describe a world where men are conniving to oppress women. and they've added a lot of baggage and nonsense like "male privilege." as if linda Ikeji isn't a thing. all those powerful women don't exist. No, men are oppressing women. They claim that women are "Sexually objectified." by men. Yes, of course.we all are, it's not misogyny. it's a celebration of the human form. and we've been doing it for centuries to both sexes.

The point is, What feminism is fighting for, they have gotten, but the results they expected, are yet to be found. I dunno, maybe they expected women to build spaceships and giant buildings if they ended up "liberating" them. only to realize that women are not as ambitious as men and simply want to live normal lives. so, they've resorted to blatant sexism, by treating the male sex like crap to try and "balance the scale." all while committing logical fallacies everywhere.

As a skeptic, I am not fooled by propaganda. I judge an Ideology on the effect it has on the society. and feminism has had a good effect on it. but feminism is like a lollipop. we've finished the sweet candy. we need to quit chewing on it and throw away the plastic rod.

I said my post was bout what think feminism SHOULD be about.... and we both know women can fully exploit the opportinities men take for granted because society have spend millenia subjugating the dreams of the average female to be anything other than a good and sumisdive mate to man.... its like freeing the slaves on paper and continuing to keep them enslaved or close to it in reality

to other sane and rational thinkers who are fathers. in order to avoid ur daughters defiling themselves with numerous boyfriends and potentially destroying their lives because they want to be doctors. i propose giving away my/our daughter to a responsible man under the arrangement i will pay my daughters fees to be a medical doctor while she is married to the guy and she will be free to pursue her ambitions still. she will emerge the envy of her peers.

I will pass .... i wish you the best of luck dealing with the heartbreak you experience when this plan fails as it is bound to...

i was talking of a general trend/ mentality of seeing children as obstruction.

What exactly is career? Paid employment is the least tax efficient way to make money or amass wealth. Why are women scrambling for paid employment? It has little glory.

All men are advocating is that women should see raising kids as a blessing not an obstruction to their career ambitions as if wage slavery was noble.

Modern women have it upside down. if the babes were successful bloggers or business women then thats good for any marriage.

If a salaried job is slavery... why do we practically die to get jobs.... and in what dictionary is definition of career limited to having a salaried job? In anycase what gives you as a man to choose the life path and choices for another human being .... simply because she is of a female gender

postmann:
Look, if we all want to be godless, i dont really care about feminism. woman will lose. if men should treat women as equal in the society, women will die of agony.

Children are already paying the price as a result of feminism. women are abandoning little children for career. and the society is bearing the brunt.

With or without feminism there would still be bad mothers out there.... i know hoisewives who children eat out all day and are ill cared for... i know career women who balance their homes beautifully.... am not advocating for men hating, competitive feminism... thats what most guys against this thread dont seem to get.... even the slave owners of infamous memory felt their slavery of the blavk man was divinely ordained and just....

Education the way it is setup, is not a true test of intelligence.

A woman can come tops in exam, but the real life application is a different kettle of fish.

That why not settle the issue once and for all? Why not give these women the same opportunities and preferences cos if they are bound to fail then they will and the matter will be settled once and for all... aparently pushing gender equality would be win win for men... so....

postmann:
it's not possible for all the history and religious books to lie all the time against women achievments.

if you ask me i'll tell you history gave women a little more credit than they merited in their spoonful contribution in the ocean of human innovation.

So in essence you telling me its not possible for ( using this as an example) a woman to be smarter or more intelligent or more successful in a chosen field than her male counterpart if given the same opportunities and preferences?

Poverty - the reason why some persons in the north aren't educated

Poverty - the reason why the average northern girl child is married off before she's ten yrs old

Are they the same?

I would have you know that-from very personal experiences and observation- the northern girl child and many other rural females from other tribes are deprived of an education NOT because of poverty but because they are considered of little value more than getting married and bearing children... tell me in all honesty that you think this is a fair societal system or way of reasoning... i was only being sarcastic when i linked your statement to child marriages ( although sarcasm aside it is all true)... am sorry you could not detect said sarcasm

postmann:
You ve said what i needed to hear.

i wont talk about your parents any further.

but let me tell you this invention started thousands of years before formal education. and women were not bound then not to succeed.

there is still a difference between education and invovation.

you may bring all the excuses but women are not created to match their male counterpart in wisdom, knowledge and intelligence. And theyll never catch up.
IT'S SPIRITUAL

One thing we tend to forget is that: the fact that women's contribution to creativity and invention are not recorded far back in history does not necessarily mean they didnt invent nothing or contribute nothing... recorded history has never been entirely trust worthy #justsaying

NewSheriff:
Read and make use of your brain before quoting me. Can you show me where I said poverty is the reason why the average northern girl child is married off before she's ten years old?

I didnt insult you not cos i cant but cos it serves no purpose... pls grow up... you did say poverty is yje cause of illiteracy... presumably for women in the north... didnt you? Now what happens to these uneducated girls?

itzhanie001:
Lolz.

I don't understand why some men start foaming from the mouth when they hear feminism. Yet they'll all come out proudly to name their mum's profession, and contributions to the Society, how did women get to that stage is not through feminism. Women were mere puppets before, they believe women have no or little functional brains and should only be seen and not heard, just to stay pretty with no dreams fanning to some guy's ego even when decisions that hurt her are made on her behalf, she has no right to proper education other than staying primped and ready to make babies when a male relative chooses her would be husband for her. And many more stupid stuffs.

Your words are on the money my dear.... i couldnt have said it better... you practically stole the words outta my brain bout having educated and career oriented mothers and still scorning feminism amd the need for it...
