It is evident you need more food for your thought process to improve.

I never insulted you I just posted my comment. This is a public forum. Please respect yourself.

Don't say things you have no factual backing of same applies to @foodforthought.

I'm learned and exposed. I am well aware of certain things and this is no place to prove anything. My deduction was subtly put, not in form of direct accusation. Trust me I've seen for myself and I know what I'm talking about.

kai! you dey para oh! wetin dem do you?

I just tire for them. Men are working for women in the real sense. Guys hustle to take care of their wife's and babes. Almost everything revolves around women. They control the destinies of great men indirectly, indirectly controlling empires with their bodies. Yet they are not satisfied. They want to join you at the steering wheel. Biko if two captains direct a ship will the ship not sink?

Mindfulness:
Feminism does not seek to replace men or to disempower them but yes women rights go hand in hand with a better economy, a decline in the poverty rate, less crime and less bigotry. Women have not been granted the same opportunities in the past so very few women could build empires (if this is anything to brag about because imperialism oppressed peoples for ages) and you are right in that women tend to participate in beauty pageants and modeling etc. It is part of the socialization that feminism seeks to alter in that it wants women to have more choices. Traditionally, women were asked to look pretty, get married and look after their homes so what you have described here is the result of such traditions. Nothing wrong with women in the beauty industry but why does it have to be the norm? And why are people, men and women, judged on the basis on their marital status? How does it define anyone? Just because you settled down, does not make you a better person. At times it makes you even more miserable. You can celebrate your marriage but do not think it makes you better or happier, even i*diots and murderers get married. And that is the crux of the matter, why would you use your marital status to describe yourself? What is so special about it? It is more special to live your life the way you want it even if it goes against anyone's expectations. This, requires strength. Anyone can conform, not everyone can rebel and lead.

Who is questioning Adichie for remaining a Miss after marriage? Who is questioning her for becoming educated and successful? Who is questioning her choices? Nobody. Who has gone to beat up Genevieve because she refused to marry? Nobody.
My problem here is why are feminists questioning other people on their choice? What is Adichie's business with other women keeping the wife tag. ? Is that how to pursue your own interests, by ridiculing other people's interests.? Is that how women will attain emancipation, hating men?
This thing they call opinion, a lot of people take advantage of it because they have an audience. It's good to have an opinion, but wrong to force it on people. Just deliver ur message and hope people get it! She's crossing her limits by questioning other people's choices. At best, Adichie is a writer with an opinion, nothing more. She isn't necessarily women's spokesperson..
It's called live and let live

Please understand where Chimamanda is coming from before you defend her. She is illuminati. If in doubt ask Beyonce.

Many people are not aware of this; It is all part of a script. They are trying to make the movement popular. And when people see it has had an influence on Hilary, they will start taking it as credible. Watch Clinton change her bio.

Even if they attain equality or even dominance over guys what will they do with it? Take men off the charts, off the top drawer , off the labour market, off the position of authority and replace with women.What does it do for us? Will it improve global economy, will it reduce crime rate, terrorism, hatred, racism, tribalism, extremism, health challenges? Will it make our world a better place? I doubt. And if it won't do these things then it is misplaced priority on a global scale. The end goal benefits just the woman. That's selfish
Men have become the power brokers of the society because of what they've achieved over historical times. Where were the women when men were building the empires of the world, discovering nations, setting standards, birthing and liberating nations through wars, giving their lives for the cause? If men are at the top today then it's because they've worked for it. What have women offered in response? And here they are trying to replace men!
Go check the world's tip billionaires, 100 richest persons they are mostly men. These men have worked for it. Women who should be challenging them are winning beauty pageants, becoming models, posting nudes online, while guys be hustling. Look at cyber fraudsters, majority of Naija musicians, comedians, they are all hustlers building for themselves while their girlfriends sit back and eat shawarma, ice cream and chips. Guys are going into the studios to record songs, write lyrics,women only dance to the music produced. When the guy becomes a millionaire, the dancer of a girl is still broke
They are jealous of men. They want to become men without working for it. If you want men to accept you into the top ladder you should have something to offer but no, most of what they have is nudity. It is only in easy stuff that they want to be equal...go and fight boko haram, no, work as labourers, no, hustle for urself , no.Come and become truly equal, no.
Then you see the leeches on nairaland who depend on men for survival bragging about equality.On social media, that is where they brag.
Y'all not ready yet

kingthreat:
I agree. It doesn't try to equalize the woman. It tries to demasculate the man

Exactly. They are not concerned with raising their level and standard but just want to make men bring down down theirs and fall to their level.

Feminists are a disgusting set of women. They just make me want to puke.
Is she trying to mock an institution which has been in existence since creation? She thinks she's intelligent. She got shiit for brains

That is why I always say that feminism is the Devil's secret weapon to destroy marriage and family
