So many. If you don't know your role in the home, probably you need to go ask your parents.

I give life ( carry pregnancy), nurturer( cook, clean etc) , teacher( discipline etc ) and so many other roles that my husband sometimes choose to have me take. E.g. My opinion mattered more than his when we were looking for a house to move into. He felt that way.
All these things don't make me less intelligent.

My husband is a provider, guider, gives family direction, protector and does all duties that requires extreme physical activities. I ain't mowing no lawn when he is my husband.

As I said before some of our African men give us more out of probably love and respect.


Out of the home, I normally get the same respect from most men. They normally afford me certain privileges without even asking.


I mean your 'gender role' outside your husbands house. Whatever you people do inside is between the both of you. Do you realise that people fought so that women would be educated? If not, your only so called gender role will be to continue giving life and cleaning up after all the 'lives'. Feminism is not about women being above men. It is about giving women equal opportunity. If a man can be a president, why not a woman? If a man can be an engineer, why not a woman? That is a feminism. It is not just about who cooks and cleans up.

It's not true. The West is trying by all means to control population of Africa, buy using the media and even controlling and rolling out vaccines that unknowingly sterilises African women without being aware.

I know my gender role, I have never interfered in any role that does not concern me hence I have never been told to shut up. The only time I was aware of gender inequality was when I lived in an Arab country. In Africa I have some of the times been invited to forward my input as a women. I have never been disrespected at home or outside my home.

By curriculum, I do not mean one or 100 people that schooled abroad coming back to Africa to teach. I mean America or any Western country sharing the content of their education like Technology, Science, Maths etc. To buy the curriculum from those countries becomes extremely expensive because they wanna make it unaffordable so that African countries remain unequal. That's racism.

Let's look at America only as an example. White people use Feminism to sow divisions between African American men and women. Yet African American of all genders are victims of their racism and discrimination.

While they push feminism agenda, African American women develop hatred for their African American men and label them as useless forgetting they are both victims of racism.

For any African American women thats joins Feminism movement, they will only be promoting White women's rights. The same White women discriminate against African American women before the rallies and immediately after those feminism rallies. Who is a fool there?

Your struggles as races are not the same therefore it is ignorant to join in a fight that never had you in mind from the beginning.

African men and women are victims of racism.

All we need is better education that will put us on the same level, not Feminism.
What is your gender role please?

I gave up to even start debating with you when I realised that you don't even understand where feminism started.

Feminism started in Western countries where racism and gender discrimination has always been the fibre of its society

There is racism in Africa meted to us by white ideas that force things like Feminism down our throats as if we cannot fight our own African battles in our own way.

There is a lot of racism going on in Africa, masquerading as saving our African societies.

1. Education - white people and white countries can never share and push for implementation of thcontent of their primary-high school curriculum so as to make African education be competitive as theirs and make Africans compete at the same level as them.
Why can't they share what they teach in schools than pushing for Feminism? We don't need feminism, but we need an educated society that is inclusive of all genders.
They wanted to kill Bill Gates when he suggested that a computer should be so cheap that each African family should own one.

2. Contraceptives ( birth control ) is a form of racism to control African population because of white ideas of how many children each woman should have. It's a form of interference into our marriages and to give African women ideas that men are against us and we should fight men. It's a women's body etc.
White people are the first people to donate so much money towards population control in Africa through vaccines and contraceptives. But they will never donate towards building schools and rolling out good education curriculum. They will never share their education and skills to already existing population. They will never open schools to teach every child how to build a computer, but they will donate anything to control and destroy you.

2. Feminism, the same ideas of feminism are sowing divisions in out societies between men and women. Feminism is ethnocentric in nature, it uses standards of another culture ( white culture ) to measure the appropriateness of another culture. It's racist because in itself the only correct standards and ideas are only that of white people. Feminism is not centred around African ideas.

White women have always been discriminated by their men, calling them blondes ( stupid ) and telling them that their place was in the kitchen etc.

Africans have never been confused when it comes to gender appropriate roles. African women have never requested changes in gender roles. FOR example, I ain't going to no war when there are men in our villages. Why would I want to be a soldier?

In Africa a female has always been involved in decisions made in our societies. Yes there are some unfair practices in some cultures, but they can be changed.

Africa has its own gender issues which do not require feminism to sort them out. In my marriage I know my role and I require no feminists ideas to run my marriage. In fact some African men empower their wives and give up more power than we need.

We have gender roles which we are doing fine with.
My husbands role is that of a provider, protector, lover etc. Why do I need some white woman's idea to change our roles in our African society.

In my home my husband let's me be and gives me more power to make decisions than I think I should.

Our African men have never left us out. Yes our cultures and traditions have never been perfect, but they have never been entirely oppressive towards women.

What we need in Africa is good education afforded to all genders. That education should put all genders on an equal footing to take the continent forward.


We don't need feminism. We don't need donations. We don't need contraceptives. We don't need any white person interfering in our cultures.

Feminism is used by white people to divert our attention from the atrocities caused by white supremacy, racism and slavery.

I cannot fight together with other white women who already are privileged by the colour of their skin. As a black women joining feminism, you are simply promoting women of other race because they are privileged more than you.

Madam, you can go ahead and have 50 children. The white man is not throwing contraceptives down your throat. What you do in your marriage is you and your husbands business but when you go outside and a man tells you to shut up because you are a woman, you will realize that women are still being looked down at. Africans abroad, why cant they come and teach us what they have learnt instead of waiting for the white man's curriculum?

A time will come when even Davido will tell her that he doesn't need her again because she is a university drop out. She doesn't want to build her life because of the money she is already making not knowing that beauty without brain is nothing to Nigeria men. She is using Davido's fame to shine and it won't last.
