You could just be mature and talk with her. Ask her what she really wants, communication is key in a relationship. She is in the best position to answer your question. |
Family / Re: What's The Most Important Thing A Father Can Do For His Children ?? by IamAngelica(f): 7:38pm On Jan 03, 2021 |
I'm not a guy and I'm not a parent yet but this what I think..build solid relationships with your children. Don't think that paying their school fees and giving them a roof over their heads is all that is required of you by your kids..become their friend and confidant..be that person they can come to when they have problems..be there for them when they need you. When you have this kind of relationship with your kids, everything becomes easier..they won't have to lie to you about something, you can trust them and they can trust you back..when they start approaching their teens, parenting will get tougher but that already existing relationship will make it easier for them and for you. I hope you find this helpful..also are you expecting a child? 3 Likes |

MPESA:in as much as I agree with you, he did make a point. We should teach our children to be outspoken and fearless..but in this particular case, being or not being outspoken was not the problem 1 Like |

ahmedzippa:Showing off your body has nothing to do with feminism lol..it has more to do with healthy self esteem and positive self image..if you don't like posts like this, then don't click on it because I'm sure you saw the title before clicking on it..also I'll teach my children both boys and girls to not be ashamed of their bodies but to embrace it and flaunt it in all of its glory and also teach them to ignore people like you that think their opinion matters.. |

Family / Re: Child Discipline: Do You Believe In Beating Your Child? by IamAngelica(f): 7:28am On Jan 03, 2021 |
descarado:God bless you..African parents, more often than not, fail to communicate with and build relationships with their children. The saying "spare the rod and spoil the child" means that you should correct a child when he does something wrong. The "rod" here is figurative and means a corrective measure should be implored not necessarily beating that child or using an actual rod. With time that child will become immune to beating and will still do what he wants to do. 1 Like 1 Share |

bizme:I seriously do not understand the concept of beating children in the name of 'correction'. My parents believed in dialogue and communication and that has really helped me to come out to them whenever I do something wrong. I do not support beating/ flogging whether it's coming from parents or teachers and if anybody ever lays a finger on any of my children, that person will never go scott free 2 Likes 1 Share |

Sending your children to boarding schools in Nigeria is like subjecting them to physical, mental and sexual abuse. For those of us that went to unity/federal boarding schools, it's only God that will heal us 1 Like |

[quote author=Dapcity007 post=96466592][/quote] Very true..it seems like modern day feminists have deviated from the initial and true purpose of the movement. This is why many are reluctant to support feminism. |

cooooooks:i can't change my environment for them. Instead what i do is ignore the whole lot of them and mind my business..everybody will always have something to say about you that is something you can't control but what you can control is choosing how to react and deciding for yourself whose opinion matters..so if you don't matter to me, what you have to say doesn't matter either..i surround myself with positive, open minded and like minded people and it does me a lot of good. |

[quote author=Dapcity007 post=96453710][/quote] If men could get pregnant, they would equally be exempted from work. The instruction comes from the medical practitioners sometimes against the woman's wish..let's be honest who wants to sit at home doing nothing just because the doctor says so? In most cases, preg women would prefer to stay active..when male employees are sick, their bosses give them days off to recover..if he is newly wed, he is given time off for honeymoon..so what are you complaining about? |

[quote author=Dapcity007 post=96453710][/quote]In a marriage institution, the man is the HEAD and the woman is the NECK of the family so this means that they work TOGETHER and hand in hand to make the marriage successful. These are defined by roles, if one fails to hold up his own end or her own end, the other person suffers and this in turn suffers the marriage as a whole. Depending on what works for the couple, the roles shift from time to time and that is why you see men do chores when she's not around and women pay bills when there's paucity of funds. This doesn't make him a simp(as most misguided people would think) or make her a fool but shows their mutual level of understanding. But this does not mean that the woman is inferior or subordinate to the man even in a marriage. Think of it as team work in which both partners are important to each other and if one is down, you cover for the other till recovery, not a fight for dominance. |

I agree with you, but not being interested in something does not mean that we are second class citizens or inferior. |

Let me stop you right there,the book of Genesis presents gender equality rather than male leadership(Gen1:26-27) as humanity's created state.It teaches that man and woman were created EQUALLY in the image of God and TOGETHER have dominion over the earth as is seen in V.28.The structure of the creation narrative climaxes in the creation of woman,fulfilling man's need for a partner corresponding to him(Gen2:18-20).The text describes woman being created to be man's "ezer kenegedo" which literally means "strength corresponding to him".Unfortunately, the word "ezer" is often translated as "helper" which in english implies a subordinate/servant. "kenegedo" combines "ke" (as)+"neged"(in front of)+"o"(him) and so conveys "as in front of him". "nagid",a noun related to "neged" refers to the person in front and means "the one declared by Yahweh to lead".Therefore "ezer" and "kenegedo" identifies a superior or equal not a servant.Nothing about the creation story suggests that a woman is inferior or subordinate to man. |

Completely agree with you and in real life, i don't tolerate any bigot that denigrates or derides women..the general assumptions are sickening too,they don't believe that i can work my ass off and reward myself by buying expensive things for myself or driving that expensive car or living that luxurious life..they don't believe you can do all that without a man in the picture as if your happiness as a woman is tied to a man..they pressure women into marriage because they think marriage or being "wife material" is all a woman is good for..you could cure cancer, end poverty and world hunger, stop the depletion of the ozone layer and it still wouldn't matter unless you're married..they tell women not to be too ambitous so that they don't threaten the men,so that they get good husbands..tell women to stay virgins for their husbands but don't tell men to do the same and then shame women for exploring their sexuality but hail their male counterparts..d matter plenty..God will help us, i didn't choose to be a woman. 1 Like |

CHoccolaTE:But would you blame men? Most Nigerian men see women as objects of sexual satisfaction and it is these same women that lead them to believe so. They give men the avenue to be disrespected and still complain that men are "scum" (not justifying men's actions) but miss/mrs the second you close your legs and realize that you're a person (not an object) and that you're worth so much more and you deserve so much more from life and start working towards what you want from life, everything else will fall into place. This is the secret to becoming a respected woman. |

I'm a feminist too but this is not what feminism is about. Your post depicts hatred for men, when what you should hate is the inequality between both genders, how you already feel disadvantaged just for having a hole between your legs. Feminism to men is like what racism is to whites; they don't just get it and they never might because they're not victims. But most people think it's all about hating men and trying to turn everything to favor women while it's not. Feminism is about trying to turn everything to favor everyone irrespective of GENDER, that is what feminism is about. If you say you're a feminist, then you sit still and look pretty and wait for a man to pay your bills or give you his hard earned money or give a hate speech about men on SM, then slide into their DMs to beg for urgent 2K, then you're not. You're just misguided.Work for yourselves,stop waiting on guys and start doing (doesn't have to be something big) and watch how these men will respect you without even knowing it. 1 Like |
