Nigerian females took to Twitter this morning using the hashtag #BeingfemaleinNigeria to highlight the challenges they face in their daily lives.

NL'anders what's your take on this?

[color=#000050]*It's Only in Nigeria that's it is a crime for a woman to have a car and not have a husband.

*When you are a Nigerian lady and you are still single at 30years, pastors will start casting out the spirit of anti-marriage from you.

*For a Nigeria woman, after school you must have two certificates.
University certificate and your marriage certificate.

*"Don't you know how to drive, see how you are driving like a woman"

*Every pretty light skinned girl is an ogbange

*Every single girl that dresses fine and has money is a runs girl.

*Every lady that wears skirt is a good girl. Every one that wears trouser is a bad girl.

Lot of Sentiments Up there

What about when A man Makes money and they all Tag him a Ritualist

Or Not being Married at 30 and Being Suspected to be Gay

axiliborha:
Hmm

Spill it Lady! Stop hmmming...

IMO... Those tweets have a feminist undertone

Cool. It's beautiful that Nigerian females are beginning to wise up and see the inhumane acts meted on us women.

Feminism is winning.

I am a male and I understand the point these women are making.

*A female boss controls her male subordinate and he declines, they hail the guy and say she's rude and uncouth.
A male boss does the same to a female, and she declines, they give 20reasons why Nigerian women are rude, uncouth and uncultured.

*A male strives to be successful and he's hailed whether the money is legitimate or illegitimate.
When a female makes a legitimate, she must be runs girl et al.

*A guy sleeps with many women and he still opens mouth to curse females that he probably has slept with.

Bunch of bitter, depressed and frustrated men with forlorn childhood hailed by some of their female masochists.

If you draw eyebrows, you're a runs girl (a male course mate once told me this)

If you're single and you drive a nice car, you'll chase away the men

If you're a man and you sleep with many girls, you're a boss. But if you're a woman, and you sleep with many men. You're a LovePeddler.

When a man gets a doctorate degree, he is very intelligent. But when its a woman, she's too ambitious.

It's okay for a man to drink publicly. But when it's a woman, she's wild.

The revolution is just beginning!
Operation say no to the tyrannical excesses of the patriarchal system on womanhood!

More shots...

I agree, being female in Nigeria has more disadvantages than advantages. So much is expected from her, so little is done for her. Good thing that people are getting more enlightened and are getting to appreciate women more. @007dq and @toyosi made most sense sha.

#BeingFemaleInNigeria means that in some parts of the country you can be "married" off to a man at the age of 13 to be raped in perpetuity.

A new phone / gadget comes out, they don't have the money to purchase it...

I don't know

True sha

Women complains/nag a lot, if only they know what nigerian men passes through on daily basis.

I'm here to read comments. Nairalanders no go kill me with laugh.

ok. blawdy rants.

Like play like play, this thing is getting seriously serious. Been female.

No doubt it's not easy been female in Africa at large but we have also seen lots of female icons from the same continent and country sef. It's more about determination. Especially in this new age, anything is just possible.
Check it out, about 4 mother's day have been celebrated, female child's day, children's Day, valentine's day (another females day) and now a lot of transgender mutation is going on.. This is enough to show that a female African child has a lot of prospect than in D days.


BTW Y my hand dey pepper me na.?

We have to do more about women's rights
