Most of these women fighting for equality are strong Feminists and according to RESEARCH, 90% of them are gays and they need the rights to take charge of their female counterparts.

Hello sweery. U don't have to ask for permission from any person,I repeat "any person"(especially the so called men)for you to become who Eva or wat Eva u want to become. Read the book of Genesis 1 and know the reason men always want to put women under or subdue them.Here's the reason : THEY ARE ONLY ACTING THE CURSE PLACED ON THEM BY GOD AGAINST WOMEN. The bible verse says :THEY SHALL RULE OVER YOU. And check very well that's all dey wana do. Curse is not a good thing.So leave them to act the curse while you act the blessing that God has placed on you by becoming who you want to be.Never let anything or anyone especially men stop u from becoming who you want to be.God created you and gave you the power to subdue why asking from your fellow human for permission to be a great woman that you want to be.. Just be who you want cos God has allowed you. They will never see the reason for the equality even if u talk from today till tomorrow because they are cursed ,they don't know what they are doing trust me.JUST TALK TO GOD AND ACHIEVE YOUR DREAMS. DONT EVEN THINK OF MARRYING A MAN WITHOUT DISCUSSING THESE DREAMS TO AVOID THE ONES BENT ON ACTING THE CURSE INSTEAD OF BLESSINGS COS THEY WILL RUIN IT.

I see you throwing the name of God around and I see you as well make some subtle refrence to religion and the christian bible.the strongest of the few bases we refer to defend our male chivaunism.what irony!

Good topic Op.

But I actually stopped believing in gender equality because after seeing the frequency which men rob, kill and keep human abbatoirs and rape their own children I don't think it's possible for the two genders to be considered equal.

It's not possible at all.
One is actually better than the other.

Which gender pours hot water on house girls? (women)

Which gender gets away with molesting children? (women)
======================================
Which gender fights more as soldiers for their country? (men)

Which gender does more missionary/charity work in foriegn countries? (men)


==========================================


Both men and women can be equally evil. We see more from men because men are in power. Give women an equal chance and we would see that women are equally as good or evil.


You are fast becoming a misandrist. Please stop. You know that I've always respected you (logicboy)

Equal opportunity does not always amount to equal outcome;- running for a political office is open to both gender, mostly men contest. We have equal rights to own properties, equal access to education, yet a good number of women tend not make use of those rights. Heck! You even have a women ministry, special funds for women entrepreneurs, scholarships for females only, yet more whining. What y'all see as gender inequality is simply women refusing to take personal responsibility for their lives. What proponents of that bill want is simply, i.e:- No fault divorce, hefty divorce pay outs, parental alienation while forcing the man to support kids he may never see again, get out of trouble/ destroy a man's life using rape hoaxes & false domestic abuse allegations, thought police for men, mansplaining, quota system for women . . . How does any of this benefit the men?

we must first separate gender equality from feminist movement otherwise any benefit will be corrupted from this Bill of whatever we want to call it.
if we want equality, that means a leave must come for men in places of work e.g paternity leave. think of the cost implications to government and companies. there should also be ministry of men Affair.
Why on Earth should there be a quota system dedicated to women such we have a scenario like by must the VP must be a woman( choicest candidate or not) that knocks the essence of democracy out of the window. the female folks aren't some endangered species.

Unfortunately, we can never truely separate gender equality from feminism. They're using gender equality to mask their true intentions. I expected proponents of that bill to identify clear areas of descrimination againgst women n tackle them not giving us '6 reasons to support the gender equality bill'.

You sir are very correct. Females carefully crafting their game again playing the Victim card... same issue I see with the gay movements even in the west ( a talk for another day). It may not be bad in its entirety, but I see this equality thing as them over playing their hand.

She has always been a misandrist.I know a few more here.

Feminism is flawed, Feminism isn't about gender equality, its rather a movement by a group of mostly misandrists that feel everything about men in the society is flawed.
They try to prove beyond reasonable doubt that everything in today's world is sexist and that all men are rapists.
here are some sayings by popular feminists:

“To call a man an animal is to flatter him; he’s a machine, a walking Love Machine.” -– Valerie Solanas

“I want to see a man beaten to a bloody pulp with a high-heel shoved in his mouth, like an apple in the mouth of a pig.” — Andrea Dworkin

“Rape is nothing more or less than a conscious process of intimidation by which all men keep all women in a state of fear” — Susan Brownmiller

“I feel that ‘man-hating’ is an honourable and viable political act, that the oppressed have a right to class-hatred against the class that is oppressing them.” – Robin Morgan, Ms. Magazine Editor

“The proportion of men must be reduced to and maintained at approximately 10% of the human race.” — Sally Miller Gearhart


“Men who are unjustly accused of rape can sometimes gain from the experience.” – Catherine Comins

“All men are rapists and that’s all they are” — Marilyn French


“The more famous and powerful I get the more power I have to hurt men.” — Sharon Stone

“In a patriarchal society, all heterosexual intercourse is rape because women, as a group, are not strong enough to give meaningful consent.” — Catherine MacKinnon.

U must be a child of the devil. God as ordained the man as the head of the home and whoever goes against this shall fail.

AdaNri1:
The reason most Nigerian men don't want it is because of their ego and insecurity. They fear the ability of a woman if given equal opportunity.

no we fear y'all stupidity

cnwamo:


“In a patriarchal society, all heterosexual intercourse is rape because women, as a group, are not strong enough to give meaningful consent.” — Catherine MacKinnon.

This justifies what I said at the beginning of page 2
Most of them if not all are LESBIAN bitches

mikolo80:
no we fear y'all stupidity

[quote author=DivaFiva post=44475748]I'm about to attempt to persuade our men to subscribe to the feminist ideology. Sorry it's kinda lengthy

Assumptions: An already thriving economy

1. Reduced Malnutrition and Child-Hunger: When more mothers become salary earners, it is no surprise that kids tend to eat better. As a man, seeing your kids healthy and agile, especially when it causes less strain to your pocket should be a welcomed relief. You were once a kid, think of all the things your mother bought in periods she had more than enough. Unless your mum was deadbeat or abusive, the gain was shared by her and her kids and usually the gain was better food or cooking equipment.

more equality, more rude women, more divorce and baby mama, more hunger for chudren

2. More Productivity: The[b]

[/b] idea that "women are worth less" begins from childhood but it begins to resonate with us as teenager( which by the way is one of the worst periods we face due to hormonal changes and insecurities attached) and as young adults we already believe that so, we act accordingly. In secondary school, a lot of us can attest to the fact that more often than not that more girls were top of the class. In the university however, we lose trail. If women are taught to be more confident in their abilities, we create a more productive economy.

not really cos there is nobody to take care of home front, children turn to hooligans and economy crashes as a result

3. Shared responsibility: Believe it or not a lot of Nigerian women are not comfortable asking their significant order for money EVERY little thing. Some of you guys actually love and crave being the SOLE provider because of the power and control ( it gives) over someone else's life especially when they get a good enough pay. With equality, abusive partners lose that power as well...The power that keeps the woman silent in pain. Slowly but surely, men may never have to pay for wives because it sorta cheapens our worth especially when men literally take bride-prices to mean ownership.

if you choose to marry stoopid husbands now imagine the foolishity you'll display when you have Moore resources to waste

4. Freedom of Expression: Some men would love to be as you are... Wear whatever (pink jeans), talk however (loud talkers who smack their lips) even in adult hood without being looked down on or referred to as a "woman" as though it is derogatory. Some men are natural CAREGIVERS who would be satisfied being a nurse, a cook or a stay-at-home parent but society would not let them be great. When women are equal, gender lines are blurred a bit and people are more likely to come around to accepting you for who you are.

that's gayism you're advocating for. besides real man will wear pink and defend it

5. Your daughters: As at now, it may be convenient for you to say "Men are superior" until your daughter pick up the equality struggle from where older women (and men alike) left off. It's time we make progress with this and that's if we want to eventually be a highly functional society that makes the best out of majority of her citizens both men and women.

men are superior in their role just as women are superior in their role. I don't want my daughter protecting her man. let him do his damn job

6. End of Hypermasculinity: Most men would rather just be masculine rather than going through the trouble of proving that they are "MEN" over and over again. I know it can be exhaustive, trying to hold back tears when what you really feel like it is to cry and feel better afterwards. I know it is harder for some men to ask for help because of the EGO and hyper-masculinity urges. Some of our men would grow up thinking it is manly to frown and play less so your kids can respect you. Yeah..(:|) try FEAR! When they grow old, they tend to resent he father more often for the scars he caused them.
real men do not cry


When I heard about the gender equality bill that was declined, my heart sunk but I needed to get the word across so we can know.



Oya add your two cents...or even add to the list.

The Bible makes man the head and forever it will be. Its because of the Apple Eve ate that resulted in her punishment that her desire will be to the intents of the man.

Pls the idea of a man being the head is only in marriage o. Dnt deceive urself to think that u are above all the women around u. Adam and eve were a couple and not a random man or woman.

The question of gender equality made me confirm satan really exists. God had created man and woman equally with different physiology, psychology and roles and these over the millennia, and these had kept the world in social balance.

Now that the western country under the guise of equality destroyed the balance, what have they got in return; propagating homosexuality, destruction of marriage institution, high divorce rate, unbalanced children and my favorite one...SLUT WALK.

Why complain if you can't compete.

Logicbwoy:



Does that mean you're a lesbian? If you hate men, then you cant really marry one with your heart.

Whatever.

As long as Nigerian men continue to regard women as inferior to them, my misandry is going nowhere.

I dont feel women are inferior to me as a man. There are some progressive men in Nigeria.

Also, you're a muslim and so, you should face the misogyny in your religion before generalising it towards all men

You have a point. A family with a diversified source of income stands a better change at facing any economic emergency. But such shouldn't be actualized at the expense of very young children who still need their mother's care. There are very few career paths that doesn't compromise motherhood and render young children exposed to all kinds of vices. Mothers with very young children are adviced to choose self-employed generating income where they can control their time and manage their young children effectively. Stocks, part-time writer/ editors, online networking etc are some of the very few career paths that spare mothers the agony of abandoning their children. Mothers who abandoned their children in daycares and nannies are steadily on the rise. This has nothing to do with women empowerment. It is simply greed.

Young lady, what's your creed? Are you Muslim or Christian? What is the custom of your people? Are you married? Do you hope to get married, traditionally and according to your faith? What then do your tradition and your faith teach you? To be loyal and submissive!!! So your seeking financial independence is but a leverage to do as you please even after taking matrimonial oaths to be loyal to your husband? A man's headship over you is spiritual and physical. You can be a billionaires, but your husband still has authority over you. Except he has lost touch with his GOD, he will bring you the most bitter misery any bloody feminist will live to regret!

No doubt your number 5 is a sick ideology you borrowed from the West. But let me remind you that all that the West enjoys today was the labour of a strong Patriarchal society where women knew their place. But today the West is in decline even though all the women are at work. Just as your mother's generation was happier and more fulfilled than your generation, when the coming generation picks up the feminist baton, a terrible fall awaits them.

Cheap blackmail. Save those tears of ignorance for you and your feminist folks. Men show affections differently from women. He is a symbol of authority and must act accordingly.

Men and women are two different and unique being with different gender roles. The idea to narrow or erase this difference is satanic in all its intention.
Feminism is the chief tool of satan, the prince of rebellion. And like him, they share the same fate.

Some of your points are very valid and would be a great change. The rise of women is crucial to Africa overcoming White Supremacy and Racism. Its not so much we have to order Whites but we need to order the Africa world. The queen mother system needs to return. It amazes me that Africans are in a state of renaissance, or cultural restoration, but neglect to resurrect the queen mother institution which was very crucial in building up strong communities. However, the Yoruba people have a very balanced culture, women play complementary roles to men. I love the fact that queens are respected just as much as kings. Queen Oya, Oshun and Oba were all deified like Sango. More Yorubas need to make the sacrifice to restore the traditions. Take the young Queen of Oyo for example, she's very young and she married the Alaafin and he's older. The Ayaba is making a sacrifice for culture and she as guaranteed her offspring will lead a more secure life as the royal blood will flow through them. This young queen has boosted yourself out of poverty and into the realms of power. I admire her as all she admire this young queen for making the sacrifice for traditions. Not just the old people should make the sacrifice but the youth should as well. Because I've studied, the traditions of Africa didn't fail Africans, but Africans failed to follow the traditions. Somehow we've got into the idea that others traditions or customs are better than our own. That is low self esteem.

Love, Sango.

Only a man who is a dullard would buy that idea, It could work any were but in naija never because women of nowadays could turn a man to a house help at any slightest chance and also bleep any perverts they fall for under their husband's nose and ready to sue when the husband tries to claim dominance in fact life wud b ugly if they are given equality

Oildichotomy:
My problem with this gender imbroglio is on the one hand , just somehow, we will succeed in eroding a very essential part of our natural existence as humans putting into cognisance the dual responsibilities of both sexes

I'm just a humanist in this context. You don't appeal to "men" to gain gender balance, women will have to work at it to gain the balance.

I think the clarion call should be to fellow feminazi feminist women to buckle up and give in their 100% in every life endeavour they find themselves

It's a step towards an ideal society at least one with human rights as a priority and a working system of government.
We are working. I appreciate men who don't dismiss the idea but like you try to see thing from our perspective.

It is a lifelong belief we are fighting...literally every institution has roots in policies or regulations that favor men historically so give us time.
I know it will be worth it.

We are good enough and you know it.
I do appreciate the men, like you, who do not outrightly dismiss something they can't relate to.

It takes time to change an ideology that has stood for centuries and has ground in conservative regulations, laws in every social institution ever known. These ideologies that favor men are in family setting, religion, politics even education and career paths.
It's a struggle so give it time.

Well put. I couldn't have said it better.

I remember reading about our land ownership system, where it is not uncommon to find a man with a piece of land some whether developed or not thus making land a shared asset for the majority compared to the western world where ownership is for select few, and how proud I felt about our traditional policies that would work better, in my opinion if it was more refined into to complex civilized system that works for US.
