But come to think of it. He didn't need to call. He could have just prayed. Or better still, told the whole crusade to join in prayers. No how no how GOD must come down and smite the DSS abi?

Christianity EtcWhy Didn't Apostle Suleman Call Jesus Christ Instead? by HumanistMike(op):
As a man of GOD, I expected him to call on Jesus to send his warrior angels to smite the uncircumcised/circumcised DSS against with the sword of fire and banish them to eternal condemnation for trying to behold harm upon a servant of the most high!

Instead the apostle called his fellow man for help. Isn't it ironic that the fellow man that came to help him is not a born-again believer?

If this doesn't expose the fakeness of religion, nothing will.

CelebritiesRe: Alibaba Recounts His Encounter With A "Stubborn" Female Roaduser In Lagos by HumanistMike(m):
She thought it was a "women rights" moment not realising how silly her action was.

Someone somewhere told her she was special and the world owe her something because she's a female.

She just learnt the hard way that her gender doesn't give her freebies in the street. In the street, she's held accountable for her actions as the adult she is.

I bet she's home feeling salty that she didn't have her way. Take the L bih!
FamilyRe: Malawian Journalist Accuses His Wife Of Being A Witch (Photo) by HumanistMike(m):
I am not surprised this post got this reaction. The man could have posted this as a last resort. Who knows?

If a woman had posted a pic of her husband stating he is a wizard and she's scared he will kill her, the public will react differently.

Public reactions will include;

HE EVEN LOOKS LIKE A WIZARD

MEN ARE SCUM

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

COWARD

DIVORCE HIM AND TAKE THE KIDS

POISON HIS FOOD

KILL HIM BEFORE HE KILLS YOU

CALL THE POLICE

Etc.

Society is misandric and most men are yet to realise it. Women in general hate men. It's just that they are not held accountable for their sexism.

I advice men to not marry. Unless you get a PRENUP. Also ensure she is not a SIGNATORY to your assets. Let her be an adult and go earn hers.

OP....you writing is very impressive, it seems like what Rollo Tomassi would write, thumbs up.

Time and time again I have also see this scenario play out even right here on Nairaland.... You'll hear something like;

"A real mam does not do this, a real man does not do that" mind you, this is coming from a 14/15 year old girl who doesn't know her left from right..o.

Another common one is;

"A real man does not hit a woman no matter what she does even if she hits him,like seriously does that seem fair?" Don't get me wrong it's not like I'm supporting violence, it's just that you never/hardly hear things like " A real woman does not hit/abuse anyone whether man/woman"

To make matters worst you'll see a man abusing his fellow man for the sake of woman even right here on Nairaland. It's like we're being programmed to place more value on women more than we put on ourselves. Don't get me wrong it's good to respect women but not at the expense of our own self respect.
Well said man. Thanks for the compliment.

Babysho:
If I understand this write up of yours, you are saying that the Male child has already been given a story; one filled with neglect, one where it is okay for male child to be stupid and act as he wants- but the major solution to all those challenges there is to eradicate poverty in that nation. Poverty leads to illiteracy and illiteracy leads to stupidity. A good example would be USA in contrast to Iraq/Nigeria. You wouldn't see an American Male child getting involved in acts of terrorism because he KNOWS too well that he should channel his "need to protect his pride" through creative thinking and acquiring wealth legally. Unlike Nigeria where the Male Children especially from the North are potential monarch rapers and terrorist because they have no idea of how to channel that 'Maleness' into productivity because they've seen their elder one's go into it, they've seen it on TV. Poverty is the Main Engine of Male Child Waywardness.


There are several other factors that affect the Male Child's behaviors. Like the parenting skills and also like you suggested, the things they, we see on the TV. It affects the rich ones the most.
You have a point but it is deeper than that.

I am a Men's Rights Advocate so I know a lot about these things.

You see, the feminist have a plot for women to be in major positions of power and subjugate the male. They know it will be difficult so they hatched a plan. The plan is to infiltrate the media, education, government etc. Through these points, they spew male hate and emasculation materials. This is done so the male will be easier to dominate. When males drop out of school, can't communicate properly, can't act well in public, have poor hygiene, fear the female, etc it will make the male less qualified for good jobs and good positions. It also will make the male less likely to want to compete with the female. So it's more like the female running unopposed, kind of.

Most Hollywood materials are misandric. So are most sit coms and TV commercials. The education focuses on the girl child. There are more female degree holders in the US and UK now. The only academic disciplines where males dominate are in STEM. So what did the feminists do? They have put up scholarship schemes in STEM courses for the female child only in a bid for the females to overtake the males. Note that the government (feminist's puppet) are not interested in why males are dropping out of school. It is not important to them.

Women own the government. Divorce, crime, immigration, workplace harassment etc all favours women. The plot is to render as many men as possible voteless. Any man convicted of a felony loses his right to vote. Also, more men die in the workplace and in wars. Therefore, women constitute the bulk of the voting block. Consequently, women will determine who rules; who becomes president. As it is in the US now, if all women vote for a particular candidate, that candidate will win since the eligible female voters outnumber that of the males.

That is why you hear politicians say things like "free this and that for females only if I'm elected", "if your wife slaps you, you should kneel down and beg for forgiveness because it's not domestic violence. It just means you are a jerk". The politicians can't risk not appeasing the female voting block.

That's why everyone is surprised Trump won cus him no send women. What happened was despite, Hillary's tactics of making the female voters hate Trump, she forgot that women hate women. All in all, Hillary's plan would have worked if not for the Electoral College.


So here in Nigeria, we don't think. All we do is copy. We have copied their chivalry and TV script without knowing the Why. This is the reason why job creation and literacy alone won't stop the effemination/dumb-down of men in Nigeria. After all, rich kids and big men fall for the brainwashing too.

What will stem the tide is proper education. Not the type gotten in schools alone, but the type gotten from awareness. The type gotten from male-help sites like avoiceformen.com. Youtubers like Barbarossa (I probably spelled that wrong) and Paul Elam etc.

I know this is a long piece but there a lot to things than meet the eye.

Knowledge is not in schools although school is very important. Knowledge is out there. It is this knowledge that will open your eyes to the manipulation we all are being subjected to. School can make you intelligent but knowledge will make you aware and wise.

Both genders should not be raised the same because they are not the same. They have generally different aspirations and motivations, and as a consequence you cannot raise the the same.
How many women do you know who primarily look for a husband who can cook and clean ober one who can provide and protect? How many men do you know who look for a woman who can provide and protect he and his children over a woman who can care and nurture his offspring. Genders are not the same. It is the height of deceit and tragedy to treat them the same.

Gender norms and stereotypes cannot be broken because men are attracted to feminine women and women are attracted to masculine men in the general sense. Anything different is an anomaly.

Infact, HumanistMike and AngelsAndStars, It has come to my notice that, Nigerian female soldiers do go to war.
And it has come to my notice that you are just noticing it. I'm not impressed.

The women are just poster officers.

Even Dame Patience that championed women joining the NDA does not use female soldiers as security on her entourage. She only uses one female ADC for show. More like a Female Soldier that doubles as her PA lol.

Over a year ago, some female soldiers were disarmed and kidnapped by BH. The army reacted by ordering all the female soldiers (about 80) out of Borno. Lol. BH would have used them as snacks. There probably would have been a BringBackOurSoldierBabes movement championed by Obikwesili.

Maybe by now, BH would have been negotiating with the government on how to release pregnant captive female soldiers that are still alive.

Feminist protest and request for quota in Oil Companies and Government Positions. We all expect them to protest and request for quota/equal representation of females on the front line. Isn't that equality? Isn't that equal rights and equal responsibility? Isn't that what feminism stands for?

That's so not true.

Feminism, just like every other movement is made up of different people who decide to interpret things how they choose, but I'd like you to know that, the real idea behind the movement is that women get their merited place in every sector. Feminism is not female supremacy.
So why don't women want their merited place in the front line of the Nigerian Army?

CultureRe: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by HumanistMike(m):
sweetcocoa:
talking about biological set up and what not, clearly shows you don't even understand the concept of feminism.

A man is a man and a woman is a woman and they are both human. What feminism advocates is that men should not be treated as a superior human than the women.

How hard can that be to understand? Mschew.
Sure. There's nothing stopping women from going to war and being in the frontlines.

The setup has to be equal for both genders with regards to education, jobs, government positions etc. No special treatments. No quota system.

Feminism doesn't want this sort of equality. They want women to not be in the frontline. They want special treatment for women. They want quota system (for women only). They want female supremacy.

Feminism is the belief in the social, political, and economic equality of the sexes.
Feminist activism is the struggle for that equality.
Feminist political activists campaign in areas such as reproductive rights, domestic violence, fairness, social justice, and workplace issues such as family medical leave, equal pay, and sexual harassment and discrimination.
That is feminism how can anyone not support FEMINISM.
If feminism means that, then what does EGALITARIAN(ISM) mean?

Look up the word, compare its meaning to that of Feminism and educate yourself.

I put up that 3rd meme in response to a portion of RMD's letter that hinged on religion and prayer n things.

There's this meme I saw on IG one time. Basically, it suggests DONT PRAY FOR THINGS THAT REQUIRES COMMON SENSE TO SOLVE. I had to paraphrase there because I can't find the meme. Next time I'll save such memes just in case.
CultureRe: Feminism: Operationally Contradictory? by HumanistMike(m):
That Chimamanda female is not bright. In fact, all feminists deceive themselves. It's like a religion; basically a yearn to impose personal beliefs and preferences on the people.

Chimamanda was in Sweden one time and she was irritated that no male helped her with her luggage when she got out the elevator.
Notice she was only irritated at men. She wasn't irritated at females. She wasn't irritated at males and females equally.
She wasn't smart enough to pack only want she could carry.
She didn't have the common sense and courtesy to appeal for help from the men folk.

She felt her gender gave her the privilege of being helped by men even without her asking.

Men owe women. Men are put on this earth to condescend and bend over backwards for female approval and use.

That's how most women think and definitely, that's how all feminists think. Female supremacy.

These women are smart though. They've invaded major facets of life (TV, Hollywood, Nollywood, academics, legal system, you name it) so as to emasculate and effeminate the male. They know the only way they (the females) can defeat males on a toe-to-toe basis is to dumb down the male.

Why are they succeeding? Man's weakness is obvious and our fathers don't teach us how to curb this weakness. Our fathers don't teach us how to protect ourselves.

If you have heard how young girls / ladies get advice from older women on how to manipulate men, you'll know men have a long way to go.

That's why I was livid when Richard Mofe-Damijo put out a letter to the Boy Child. His letter was rather poorly thought out and put together. I instantly replied him through nairaland but the mods didn't frontpage my piece. You can read it here https://www.nairaland.com/3487643/response-rmd-plight-boy-child

I even tried to respond to RMD on IG but he untagged himself. My response is well detailed and the Actor knows it. He can dish it but can't take it. He's scared of the truth. That grand pa makes me sick. He clearly has an agenda and Male Help is not in it.

FamilyResponse To RMD On The Plight Of The Boy Child by HumanistMike(op):
I am impressed you noticed the world does not recognise challenges facing males.

Where you fall short is your lack of concern. You tow the Nigerian line of ridiculing to correct. The word Ridiculing used here is just a fancy euphemism for Insult.

I will assume you asked your self why males behave like we do. What answer did you get?
You focus on the How. The key to understanding a situation is the Why. So what do you think the Why is?

The Why is not a lack of Boy Child Day. Rather, it is the attitude your letter put across concerning the Boy Child.
The Boy Child is just as vulnerable as the Girl Child but you failed to recognise this in your post despite you being a male. You dismissed it to immaturity. It is not.
The Boy Child acts these ways due to a lack of purpose-built attention.

This attention can not be prayed into existence. The effects of the lack of attention can not be wished away.
From your piece, it is clear you'll make the same mistake most parents make with their male kids.

As a reference frame, to be an actor, you practiced a lot. An Engineer/Doctor passed a tonne of courses (both academic and professional) to be fit to practice. Conversely, what training have parents, yourself inclusive, passed to be a parent to a boy/girl? How many books on parenting have you read? How many books on age and gender sensitive psychology have you read? How versed are you in the pattern of development of the male/female brain?

There is a lot to raising kids. What most parents do is Wash-Rinse-Repeat. They do to their kids what they enjoyed their parents did to them. Stuff they had done to them by their parents that they didn't like, they don't do to their kids.

This method grossly hinders the proper development of the male. The females under the same circumstances will fare better because there are lots of materials on girl child nurturing. There are government and feminists inputs that parents or society can source from (sometimes unconsciously) to guide the female while the males are left to fluke it.

Inputs from the media are terrible as well. Even cartoons depict subtle violence against men plus a dose of emasculation of the male. For example, a cartoon showing a debate scene between a boy and a girl must end with the girl winning or being violent with the boy. She may shove him, slap his head, call him a jerk etc. In addition, most movies and TV commercials are misandric. Let's take the movie 300 as an instance. Right at the beginning when the black messanger came to deliver the message, he was having a normal conversation with Mr 300. All of a sudden, his queen came from
no where and used the word Idiot (or stupid) on him (the messanger). This her action was partly the reason for the male on male violence that ensued. In fact, she greenlighted the violence. I bet 99% of the people that died in the war were men!

This manipulation and male dumb-down is not foreign only. It's in your profession as well. Name one home video or sit come where the male wasn't ridiculed. There must be an Usman or Okon that the Oga or his wife will shout at to open the gate. The Usman will then walk like a baboon to go open the gate thus disgracing the whole gender.
Even if Onga or Semo or Indomie or whatever is to be advertised, it will depict the female eating like a human being and the male swallowing and finger licking like an...in fact...
The one that gets under my skin is the sitcom The Johnsons. Spiff! Okay how are people like Spiff auditioned? Do the producers say "okay we will need an imb.ecile and it must be a male imb.ecile. We don't want a female imb.ecile because we don't want bad role models for the girl child. Please find me a male that can mumu pra pra. Okay Spiff, na you? Fine boy like you? Oya mumu let's see if your mumu has enough experience to be the chosen one. Feel free to add a touch (or hand) of individuality"
The target audience of these shows are males of developing ages. Since TV is very influential (that's why you are popular to begin with) how do you expect the young males that watch this to behave?

The implication of this as it concerns the male child is the chances of failing is higher than that of succeeding. Contrary to what many think, failures know they are failures. They know! Their sense of pride diminishes. Consequently, they try to get back that sense of pride. Keep in mind, this sense of pride is not "male pride" or ego. It is thesame pride quota that is in the female. It's the pride quota every human have. It is the same pride quota that will make a 5yr old child embarrassed if they get scolded by their parent while before their classmates. It is the same sense of pride that makes us all look in the mirror before leaving our houses. It is what makes us wear clothes instead of going naked. Bottom line is, no one likes to be in an embarrassing situation.

The problem is society has demonised the "lack of sense of pride" effect of the male. Thus, we all become unforgiving towards the male child. Recently, a young black male was killed in the US and Obama's comment on it impressed me. He said these boys didn't do stuff worse that what he did when he was young, the difference is society was more forgiving back then. If Ms Cucumber were a male of the same age with the same circumstances, the DSS would have raided his house by now and it will not be the end of his ordeal because there will be vegetarians from all over the world calling for THE FULL GROWN MAN THAT WAS AWARE OF HIS ACTIONS to be charged with se.xually assaulting an innocent vegetable in cold blood.

These days, jungle justice and shaming language are used to attempt to correct the male child. You even used the latter in your letter. The effect is, you will push the male child away. He won't tell you his reasons for fear of being shamed thus, we will all lose the only other means of understanding the male. The 1st option is for us to read it up but we don't read.

Clearly, the reason why some males act like that is a lack of sense of pride. It is linked to poverty and poor education. When society erodes the male pride, it gets to that point the male MUST attempt to get that pride quota back. To do this, he uses his maleness. What is maleness? Basically, maleness is the reason why we have planes, skyscrapers, education, computers, internet, crude oil, running water, medicine, government etc. It is just that in this case, the emasculated male uses his maleness for evil. It is all he's got left and he wasn't trained on the positive ways of using it or he wasn't given a chance to use it for good.
What does it take to insult, pick a gun, design a bomb, adulterate drugs, put plastic in rice, call women names (so they can come to his level), be violent etc. If you notice, the drive scientists have is the same drive hardened criminals have - they don't give up.

When next you see a male going astray, bring him close and advise him. Put him on a scholarship. Point him in the right direction. Let him know his is just as important as the female. Let him know his life is worth as much as that of the female. Put him on a trade. Teach him how to fish as that is the sole source to getting that sense of pride that's the building block of a well rounded male.

In addition, intervene when you get a movie script that depicts men and boys in bad light. Put forward materials that speak about the ills of females insulting males. Raise your daughters to respect men and boys. Raise your daughters to not insult a male just because he is of little means. Enlighten the public that men and boys are not defacto imb.eciles for movie props. Our depiction as being foo.ls is not supposed to be the main entertainment theme for the masses.

Women won't do it for us. Linda Ikeji has a Teach-How-To-Fish scheme aimed at only females which is funded by money she makes from both genders. The president's wife has hers and again, it is funded by public money being realised from both genders. Your daughter is probably drafting one. So, you, which male-help scheme are you working on other than male bashing? Women advice young ladies on the art of manipulating a man (e.g. 300) or the art of seduction. Older women give younger ladies wisdom. Older men don't advise us on how to know when we are being manipulated by women. Older men won't give us jobs. They would rather shame us.

Look around you. Chances are, everything you see that was not invented by GOD was invented (and are still being maintained) by males. Therefore, imagine the fate of a society that chooses to ignore the unique developmental challenges of the Boy Child.

I am not asserting males will act right when they have money. Rather my point is, it will be difficult for a male with a legit and decent revenue stream to be a menace to society.
