Where is the statistics?

Pls show links of the proven statistics let's all see the ratio, don't use words of mouth to convince everyone your insecurity and -0 esteem of overeducated women is valid when we all know pains of rejection from these women is your driving force here.
What's the statistics you use to convince people domestic violence is a pandemic ? However I will state facts and let you deduce. In the U.S, the black community several case studies showed, when women were less college educated in the 60s and 70s the marriage rates were over 70 percent and the highest amongst all U.S demographics. With the significant enrolment through affirmative action of black women in college... the divorce rates have sky rocketed and marriage rates drastically reduced with a significant increase in babymamahood. Infact almost 90 percent of divorces are filed by women in the black community and its interesting to note blackwomen are the most enrolled WOMEN in college today. If you use critical reasoning then we wouldn't go back and forth in this regard.

So you're sympathetic to violent racists?

Do you know what that region does to African people?


Do I know what they do to Africans? They sell them into slavery and human trafficking and more. Do you know what Africans do to Africans? We sell, kill each other and sell our parts for money rituals and organ trafficking. So my point still stands that we haven’t reached the point where we look down on other countries without also seeing how bad we are. I once saw a video where two Nigerian men held another man down and cut him open alive so that they could get his organs while they were still fresh. They didn’t consider giving him the mercy of killing him first. I can’t see such things and still have the mouth to talk about violence in South Asia being worse. Not when there’s a dead headless body missing part making the headlines every other day.

But you’re going off tangent with that. What’s the correlation between this your comment and my opinion about our high rate of corruption and violence? Are you kidding?

Both America and UK that everyone is rushing to are also racist countries (maybe not overtly). But if someone says those countries are better than Nigeria does it mean they support racism? So how am I sympathetic to violent racists by pointing out our own corruption? That’s wild bro.

Nairalanders and random assumptions. I don’t know how you came to that conclusion.
I think I’m done with this conversation.

Maybe look at this way.
Education gave them resources to fend for themselves. Now they have the option to walk away from bad marriages. We know women stayed married in the past because husbands were their literal meal tickets. They couldn’t own bank accounts, property or stocks unless their husbands or fathers approved. The financial power that men deliberately held over them made it impossible to leave even in the face of abuse.
Now armed with better resources, they can walk if things get bad.

So education didn’t make them bad wives. It empowered them to leave bad marriages.

Unless y’all’s definition of a good wife is one who sits through abuse wink . Is it??

Imagine if people like this are in positions of power.
And they are. Many plenty multitudes of them. Who believe women should be held down.

Even though there’s no law commanding them to oppress women, do you think they’ll give women the same considerations as men even if the women are equally qualified as the men? The common sense answer is no.
And that’s the female oppression that we talk about.

You need to stop projecting. Noone is holding anyone down. Woman are still free to do as they please with their lives. The point you should take from this thread is that every choice has consequences.

Even if I were a misogynist,which I don't think I am, wouldn't that be a good counterbalance to the hordes of simps roaming the earth and corridors of power?

Unlike you, I don't go about ranting based on sentiment or baseless assumptions, I deal with proven facts that can be argued upon, simple Google clears doubts, especially when I'm not chanced to go on more cites to get more proof

For you to be able to compare the 50s and 60s way of marriage to the reality now citing education as the reason for rampant divorces lately is stupid to say the least, but of course I'm not surprised, seeing that this is nl males airheads go-to defense of applauding long lasting marriages as the ability of women to endure long suffering and subjugation like women of old who were at the mercy of their husbands for everything since most were not educated and didn't know any better, so education or over education will surely be seen as a threat cos of the enlightenment, responsibility, and independence it brings to women, airheads

The U.S that you all like to use as a case study to prove baseless points has never had statistics on education being a problem, in fact no where has it ever been heard, seen or recorded that education or over education for women is a big problem for marriage or any other rubbish you guys will like to spring up in the nearest future, but trust nairaland men to dish out nonsense from their anuses as true when in fact education brought about low divorce rate as seen in my screenshot

Baby mamaism that you all like to dish out among black women are actually women willing to do right by their kids by being there cos the irresponsible baby papas are either hooked on drugs, gangsters, in jail and other terrible vices, but as usual you guys will definitely twist facts to suit your erratic assumptions just to score cheap points on the thread at hand

You men destroy the world everyday, you cheat on your wives and use polygamous nature as an excuse, an enlightened wife with self worth and dignity choose to bounce out of an std infested, violence induced marriage, instead of you men and husbands to reflect on being better and do better, you will all see it as the fault of the wife because she has multiple degrees, so therefore she is a bad wife, does that even make any atom of sense?

Despite “only the crazies” supporting it, it is still so prevalent here. After all our condemnation, we still do it daily. In large numbers. And if that was the only thing we had to worry about, it would even be tolerable. In Nigeria it’s perfectly legal for one to work for months without pay. Where in the world is that okay? Our laws protect criminals too. It doesn’t have to be either or. Just make sure you’re seeing the log in our eye before the speck in another’s eye. I’m not naive to Asians racism towards black people. But racism wasn’t even the initial point of this conversation. You just started deviating for no reason

I didn’t ask you not to look down on them. I told you that you excluded Nigeria from your list of violent countries as if violence isn’t something we deal with everyday.
The rest of this is your imagination working overtime.

I sound biracial now too grin

Me that’s always stomping on the behinds of racists and racist apologist folks? Wonders shall never end.
I don’t know where this conversation is headed now as you’ve obviously shifted the goal post to racism.
If your point is that Asians are racist to black peoples, I’m not arguing that. However I believe we were talking about violent societies and I simply told you not to exclude Nigeria from your criticisms.

Facts only, a high achiever wife and husband or one who supports will have less conflicts. Low IQ, irrational and retarded minds like Alfa Meils on NL will end up in deep poverty as sole bread winner with fights over money and frustration to the 10th generation.
If you suppress or try to destroy your wife’s achievements, you are doing yourself and your family. Set up your life as you want, na you sabi. Just don’t crawl under a different name on NL begging for something to eat or jump off 3rd mainland. Smh.

As usual you left the argument and went o. A rant filled with name calling.. since you wanna play that game.... You responded with no statistics or facts but some useless feelings. I NEVER TOLD YOU EDUCATION IS BAD FOR WOMEN... I stated a fact... THE MORE THE EDUCATION FOR WOMEN THE HIGHER PROBABILITY OF THE MARRIAGE FAILING. Two different things. I have you stats which you can Google if you ever do that... and find statistics on marriage in the black community . Simply go to black demographics.com. I'm sure that info is everywhere..

Errmmm babymamaism is blamed on deadbeat baby daddies in jail and on drugs?...

Who is responsible for bringing children to this world? There are an abundance of responsible men in his world but you prefer to go to the deadbeat drug dealer guys to create babies. Even cats, rats, dogs , insects mate with the most reliable males in their ecosystem. The female animals know not TO MATE with weak males...only dumb babymamas go creating babies with deadbeats and multiplying their deadbeat genes. It's really stupid and brainless when dummies like you give that excuse. The responsible ones tht got trapped by babymamas end up battling to see their kids while the women use them as leverage.
Sensible women make babies with the best males in society. Only dunning like you think its ok to propagate babies with the most useless men that even other men can't keep as friends.

My mum Is a well educated pharmacist who earned a national awards in NIGERIA and was married to a SAN.... both were very educated...BUT she knew her place and raised her daughter whom is happily married today...well educated and knows her place in her husbands house. My mum is the definition of a real boss babe... but guess what .... she made it clear to my sister... YOUR EDUCATION IS SECONDARY IN YOUR FAMILY, IF YOU WANT A SUCCESFUL HOME. You deluded chics think anybody is intimidated your useless social science degrees(bulk of what most women study )? We don't care.
When most men make money he starts assuming responsibility for extended family, family et al... when most women make money ...its foe your hair, bags, and shoes.. luxury. Thats why when a wife makes more money than a husband she gets really irritated at spending it on him..
