A Nigerian wannabe feminist should be slammed and bashed because 97% of them wants the equal benefit of men but don't want the equal responsibilities.

A Nigerian wannabe feminist should be slammed and bashed because most of the single frustrated and heartbroken women now hide under the shield of feminist to bash and get back at men without have a proper and sound knowledge of what feminist is all about.

A Nigerian wannabe feminist should be slammed and bashed because they are obviously empty and scared of the truth, they are social media feminist, they don't practice what they advocate on net, 95% of them depend on men, they obligate their responsibilities to men but will advocate and agitate for gender equity.

Gender equity doesn't exist in their societal expenditures.

I may not leave here if I keep justifying the reasons why these dump and broke wannabe feminists should be killed undecided

I hate and detest Nigerian wannabe feminists, especially on Nland.




Tell me.... Are you a feminist?
Lol..... grin

So how do you distinguish between feminists and wannabes on NL? Or do you just label everyone a wannabe for your own convenience?

I'm faring well, you?

Yea, Nland feminists, verily can't identify them because most of them do well these days not to comment and reveal themselves to avoid being slammed and bashed my fellows herein.......Thou, I personally do not think you are.

But all the same, i'll like get an answer from you....Are you? shocked
I'm good. Thanks for asking.

But why should feminists be slammed and bashed? Just see how commendable the movement was from the beginning (as the op has already recounted on this thread). Don't you think that the resistance, which men have mounted to oppose the simple rights feminist women wanted for themselves, has given rise to this aggression that sees men as the enemy? Why would you say "no" to the emancipation of women if you aren't malicious? And how would you be considered an ally after that? It's only natural that there would be suspicion about your motives. Some women can stay on the issue (feminists) and some tend to get distracted and end up battling the resistance.

Having said that, I think it now goes without saying where my sentiments lie.

RomanceRe: Man Contemplates Suicide As Wife Treats Him With So Much Contempt by MissWrite(f): 12:18pm On Mar 11, 2018
The women who stop loving their husbands when they get broke, are the ones who loved them for their money in the first place. undecided

Let's not pretend that we don't know that a lot of men present their money as their only selling point (in their interaction with women). Even on this forum, guys talk about how unnecessary it is for a guy to build his character, his body, or skills, if he's got money. (Because they think that's the only thing women care about). And you know what they say: if you don't use it, you lose it. If they don't hone their other qualities that could make them attractive and useful to women, they reduce themselves to cash-cows of their own volition. And naturally, there will be women who need cash-cows, but those cows are only useful for cash.

Everyone cares about money; we all need it. Some people know how to get it, and some people don't. The next best thing (if you can't get it) is getting someone who knows how to get money. And for a long time, women have been relegated into the "next best" situation. Women married men for financial security. Love wasn't even a factor. But when love was expected, it was naturally equated with the desirability of a man. And his desirability was measured by his wealth. So that still equates love with money, in the eyes of a lot of women in Africa.

In those days, if a man's success was his wealth; a woman's success was a wealthy husband. And in this part of the world, we care a lot about what people think of us. Our motivation to be successful is greatly influenced by our neighbors and "enemies". We don't want our enemies to laugh at us. We don't want the devil to win in our lives. So we don't want the shame of poverty or a poor husband; it is not our portion. So even when a person isn't naturally mean, there is a lot of social pressure to reject the things that aren't prosperous, which tend to leave people wondering whether our "God" is alive. tongue


However, the guy should persevere. It's not the end of the world.

Because sometimes men reason with their di*k.
How can you cause your fellow woman to be in pain,
Whats romantic in sleeping with a married man with kids?
The lady has no conscience.
Babe, if you don't hold a man responsible for his own actions, how is he ever going to know that he has the ability to rise above temptation? If you blame the other woman, the devil, the dick, nature...........you might as well just give up, because you cannot change the devil, the dick or nature. But for the other woman now, your blood is hot. She doesn't really owe you anything, though. It's the man who's got a contract with you. He swore to be faithful to you, and you have to hold him to it.

If you want to excuse his actions by accepting that men "think with their dicks" that's your problem. He'll thank you for it, and continue to think with his dick. But why can't you make the same concession for a woman? That one probably didn't use her head either (maybe her heart or her pussy). Why do you feel that she owes you the responsibility to use her head, any more than your husband does?

Talk about women being their own worst enemy.

CultureRe: Why Do So Many Nigerian Women Give Me A Hard Time? by MissWrite(f): 4:06pm On Mar 09, 2018
QueenUtum:
I'd say I'm pretty comfortable around black people having grown up with a white mum and black father. I went to a black Caribbean church and there are much more black members of my family than white. The UK can be pretty racist at times and sometimes I've had a hard time from the white people here. In fact I'm generally used to black people being friendlier to me than white ones. I might make a post about racism in the UK but if your not fully white some people here can be very unpleasant and I've been called racist names since childhood.

I have plenty of black Caribbean female friends at home and genuinely have no prejudice against Nigerian women or women from anywhere. As for a sense of entitlement and being condescending....I don't feel like I'm better than other women and don't look down on others. The culture in the UK is to be extra polite which may seem fake or patronising but surely is preferably to being rude?

I have seen some white women in the Nigerian media who have moved to Nigeria, adopted the culture and been accepted. I was only visiting for a month and did not have enough time to learn as much about the culture as these women did. With time I guess I'd learn to fit in and become less offensive.

The women who were nice to me were generally my mums age. Seemed to be the younger women that were more difficult to please.
I see. Well, you seem alright - like a genuinely nice person (judging by your interaction on your other thread). But you also seem to be making the fact that you're a mulatto the centre piece. And if you want to be focused on your "difference", you cannot be upset that people would treat you differently (like an outsider).

For instance, in that thread, the matter of your boyfriend's desire to bleach his skin could have been discussed without the knowledge of your own heritage. I know you only meant to put things in context. But the fact that you think that piece of information might be necessary to the discussion, may imply that you consider your light skin to have influenced his decision, or have some relevance to it. I cannot imagine why else you might bring that up. Maybe you think that his insecurities are heightened because he's dating a light skinned girl - you. And if you believe that he could feel inferior because he's in that situation, then you must be feeling superior. These are little things that happen when we aren't paying attention, and people pick up on them. So, when you tell him how much you like his dark skin, it may seem to him like you're just being nice and patronizing.

If you hadn't mentioned the fact that you are a mulatto before saying that a good number of Nigerians were obsessed with lighter skin, you might not have gotten the reaction you got from some of the females on that thread (because, who doesn't know that lighter skin is more marketable in this country?). What some of them might have been reacting to is the fact that you're presenting yourself to be something special (Intentionally or not. Check it na). Lol, it's a "pretty girl syndrome" and it's sometimes hard to cure.

Notwithstanding, I think you're a nice person and that you have no ill-intentions. People will eventually see that. So visit again sometime, maybe spend more than a month, and give Nigerian women the chance to get to know you better. In return, you'll find that we bear you no ill. kiss
CultureRe: Why Do So Many Nigerian Women Give Me A Hard Time? by MissWrite(f):
If you're only looking to make friends, and since you already found some Nigerian women to be "lovely and very friendly" (towards you), you probably should take your pick from that lot. They might even be more than you need. Not everyone is going to like you; that's just life.

Human beings have a sixth sense for BS. When you are as polite and friendly as "you can be", it might not be cutting it for some people; or maybe you end up seeming very patronizing. Ask yourself how you truly feel about Nigerian women, and know that sometimes your true feelings cannot be concealed by politeness. People sense it. If you've got "airs" or if you're even mildly condescending, we see it. And most home-grown Nigerian women typically give it to you straight, so they aren't likely to indulge you: who you be! You know that women are generally less likely to deal with a fellow woman's sense of entitlement than men are. But we still have those who will be as friendly and polite as they can be in spite of everything. So, that should suit your purpose.

I'm sorry if you've assumed that you're getting this reaction because of the color of your skin (or Non-Nigerianness). Nigerian women aren't racist like that. And there are a lot of "oyinbo" ladies in Nigeria, who are allowed to blend in with the crowd without suffering a second glance. And here, there are people from different cultures who we even (wrongly) assume to be Nigerian because they just flow like that. This might just be about you, specifically. If you didn't grow up around black people, you might be uncomfortable around blacks. It might not even come from a place of malice and you may not even be aware of it. But it still shines through when you either show it, or try too hard to conceal it. However, the longer you're immersed in the situation, the better it suits you. So, give it time.

But then again, there are also Nigerian women who are given a hard time by Nigerian women. So..... undecided

I don't understand why some guys will come here to criticize this thread.............just fvck off already! What's the issue? How does this empower black women? Why is that YOUR issue? You are not a black woman, and in a feedback section, your opinion wouldn't count in vetting if this thread met the OP's objective or not. It is black women (the target audience) who would have to check the boxes: empowered/not empowered. Not you. But you still want to come here to regulate how a woman should or should not be affected by this thread. You say: if women find this thread empowering, then they must be having serious self esteem issues; and since nobody wants to be seen to be having serious self esteem issues, we should now deny the fact that we find this thread empowering.

But this is about self-esteem. Obviously. And the original post states it. So what is your problem? What, we shouldn't have them? In a world so obviously obsessed with beauty, where Hollywood, pageants and Caucasian Barbie dolls have defined what is to be considered beautiful and what isn't; you want to claim that the black woman's self esteem issues over her looks are unfounded. A lot of us have them; but we are overcoming them. We know that there are several ways to be beautiful. Seeing black women flaunt their skin like it is an element of beauty instead of something dirty to be ashamed of (like they're beautiful because of it, and not in spite of it) is empowering for black women who feel aesthetically inferior because of their complexion. You cannot imagine the effect that Alek Wek has had on the way some black African girls perceive their beauty. And of course, Naomi, Oluchi and all those beautifully darker skinned models.

Winnie Harlow is a model with vitiligo. Seeing her success in the world of beauty, (I imagine) should be an encouragement to girls who feel ugly because of their patterned complexion. Would you be telling those girls not to feel empowered when one of theirs has found her path to such self-confidence? Beauty is diverse.

And to those guys nagging girls to put their pictures up (since charity begins at home), excuse me? Did you make your case for the unattractiveness of Nigerian women by putting up the pictures of your ugly mothers and sisters? Abeg, leave people alone joor. This isn't a thread to prove NL girls are beautiful. Nobody is here to impress you. This thread shows how beautiful black is or can be. We know black women are more than just beautiful, but this thread isn't about all the other awesomeness (story for another day). Stay on the issue and stop trying to get a girl's attention by negging her. We see through you.
RomanceRe: Nigerian Women Are Among The Most Unattractive Set Of Women In The World. by MissWrite(f): 3:21pm On Mar 03, 2018
Beauty is subjective. A lot of Nigerian men do not appreciate the beauty of Nigerian women . Clearly, the Op has made his case in favour of that point. There's a struggle here to become a "poor man's oyinbo": bleached skin, weaves, and all. Just to cater to those yellow-bone-obsessed men.

But else where, Nigerian beauties are placed on a pedestal and adored. Call it the power of the exotic, or jungle fever, or whatever; It's ironic that we can dare to be our blackest and truest African selves - skin, and kinky hair with a smile - when we aren't even home. But that's life: not all cultures are confident of their value unless another appreciates it. It's a complex.

Nigerian women are beautiful kiss

I don't always disagree. I have actually made my points and on the topic clear since yesterday, which seems to go against your views in this case.

1) Men demand for sex because women hoard it not because they value it more than women. Women create artificial scarcity to use sex as bargaining chip to gain unfair advantages, particularly those women who have nothing else to offer. who might be in the majority in Africa and Nigeria society in particular based on observations of antibroke men sentiment among Nigerian women

2) You made reference to the fact that women try to gain financial independence because they want to free themselves from a mygonist society. They want to have greater control of their destiny and I asked if you sincerely believed that to be the only reason why women seek independence in Nigeria, because other available information about the rise of young ladies turning sugar mummy
and demanding for sex might go against your assertions

3) I thought you said men "most men value sex and much else" to make it seem like women don't actually value sex as much as men. which is why I asked if you believe men like sex more than women?
.
Lol. Okay. That's valid, in my opinion.

grin grin

SSG, you're always determined to disagree with me. But here, in this case........I don't see why you would.

1. When you say men demand sex, and I say that's what they value from a woman's repertoire; I don't see the disagreement. You have to value something to want it and then demand it.

2. What reason did I cite for the aspiration for independence by some women? To have social value whether they have a man or not (last paragraph)? The number is staggering, actually. Enough to constitute a movement.

3. I did not say men "like" sex more than women. I thought my junk food analogy was apt sad.

Lol, you never seems to amaze me cheesy you don't disappoint.

Yes, you a very good point, a versatile and broad point touching different and various areas in a relationship.

I was logically thinking loudly about this very cliche "Most women offer sex" and I was like.... Sex should be a two gender thing, why then do men say women do offer it, could it be a countering cliche?, maybe yes, if YES, can women aswell say "Most men do nothing than to demand for sex in a relationship"..Can they.


Lol. Yes, I think the bolded can be said. It's definitely two sides of a coin.

Well, you said any gender can offer sex, which I MIGHT or MAY NOT agree with you, because I personally think no gender offers sex, because it takes to gender mingling to have sex.
I understand.

I only meant that in the sense that people can decide what they're wiling to "give" in a relationship even before any requests are made from the other person. People have the right and sometimes the tendency to hold back on things they have the capacity to give for reasons best known to them.

For it to happen, there are two offers and two acceptances; one active, one passive (whenever a person initiates it). You've got to be ready to give it in order to receive it. It's like the traditional Protestant wedding vow where both parties pledge to accept each other and offer themselves to one another at the same time. And for it not to happen, there are either no offers, or one offer and one rejection.
