₦airaland Forum

MrAnony1: Just wanted to quickly respond to these:

To answer your questions, I would say YES to all. . . . . but that is not where the conversation ends we must also ask

- Do women have a right to vote in Nigeria?

- Are women paid the same salary as men for doing the same work in Nigeria?

- Do women have the right to be educated in Nigeria?

If the answer to these questions is YES (and I believe they are) then we must ask: What then is the relevance of feminism to the Nigerian society?

Williamso: I wonder... But there's one "Deleted post" by the OP though; just wondering what that might be.

Czechrep: Guys what could i possibly do that would warrant such meanness? Its so petty and i wouldnt ever bother to mention it, he visits nairaland and would probably see this and write back, Fyi i ddint cheat or steal or even commit any offense.thanks y'all for your comments, Whatever will be will be, i didnt ask for any gifts or money, i just felt " Happy Birthday " would have meant alot, cheers guys

Williamso: [size=15pt] AM I THE ONLY PERSON ON THIS THREAD THAT READ THIS??! [/size]

mstik: OK, you were just speaking off point and I don't even know where to start from to reply you. If, you're trying to make a point, you have to do so intelligently. Op said she's being going through emotional abuse, and 'abuse' is such a strong word. Do you know what it means to be abused? You are here rambling about menopause and I don't see any correlation with the topic at hand. You know your problem? You can't just stand any female bad mouthing about a man, no matter what he did. To, you, it's always the ladies fault.And you carried this mentality into this thread, and here you are, saying/typing words that are confusing?

cococandy: Patriachy? Didn't say anything about it.

Unbridled patriachy? Now both aren't the same and of course I've explained my post to the person who wanted to actually know what I meant.
Are both the same thing? Hardly.

But in your xtupidity,to you they mean the same thing that's why when someone says unbridled patricahy has such disadvantages you interprete it to mean that patriachy has the same disadvantages.


I suggest you read well next time before going around making a f00l of yourself.

cococandy: If you don't know the meaning of unbridled,pls don't quote me to yarn rubbish.
I've had my share of silly arguments not ready to do that again.
Thank you.

Sagamite: Well said, REAL MAN!

adorable29: To the men talking out of point and the women wanting to score cheap points with the men. Can't you see her response? She said she was sorry. Should she start rolling on the floor begging or what?


I strongly believe if it was a man that posted this, some men on here will advice the op to even send the wife packing! Bloody hypocritical naija men! Always wanting to intimidate the women!

Sophyrocks: Make-up kit o, surgery kit o, mechanic kit ooo, na you sabi. No time for you. Our discussion will lead to nowhere.

Bye bye.

Sophyrocks: Recreate which reality? its already happening so need to argue with me biko. if you like deny from january till december. No time to argue with you abeg.

Sophyrocks: Please ask questions from your ridiculously handsome, fiancially-disadvantaged male friends to gist you. Lots of gigolos around too.

Sophyrocks: Guys depending on ladies being rare in nigeria? Wow!! And you claim to live in nigeria?

SirShymex: Let me cite an example from a next country(not Nigeria) that might be relevant here. There's a popular sport analyst on ESPN called, "Stephen A. Smith." Last week, while he speaking about domestic violence, he said, "I don't condone domestic violence, but women shouldn't engage in provocation." That was all he said before feminists and PC warriors got on his case. And despite apologising for what he said in a 4 mins video - he was suspended from work, for a week - just for saying the truth. That's unacceptable!

lynpetra: My dad is very responsible when it comes to our Education.The man tried,God bless him,BUT,my papa na Sam okparaji wen it comes to UKWU NWAnyi!!Remember one wey one lady teacher for my school dey pass,the lady get big yansh,na so me and my mom dey look am weda he go look d yansh.He still fucccck up!Him use style rotate him head.Abeg make una leave my papa ooo .The yanch sef too extra ordinary.

Truckpusher: No, this is all about pointing her fallacies and not being emotional.

I have listened to her on several occasions and my opinion is that she is a Western apologist.......Simple

MrAnony1: But then in the same vein, how can Adichie give a balanced view of feminism in Nigeria while she is in far away USA?

njokusboy: WTF, good lord... U know u don't have to comment if u got nothing to say right??

zboyd: Over here, Catholic schools are private. You have to pay tuition. Some of the best schools down here.

No arguments from me.

All pikins will go.

zboyd: Why do you have an issue with my refusal to embrace the concept of submission?

Why should I adopt some white women's ideology, take it in, and run with it?

Am I not allowed, as a woman, to steer my own path?

My hubby and I are in agreement that the concept of submission has no place in our marriage - mutual respect and mutual cooperation works for us.

Other couples think differently - as is their right.

Btw...this condescending tone of your is getting old - and I also dislike your demanding tone of voice too.

I don't take orders.
