AyeeIdris:there is a certain Grace Alele-Williams( don't no if uv heard of her), a beautiful woman that I love and respect so much. She is a professor of mathematics education and d first female VC of a Nigerian university. she was appointed d VC of uniben in 1985 and she served that glorious institution 4 8years. she was a colossus. after her service she has since served on d board of several notable Nigerian companies including chevron. what mama showed us with her life is that it doesn't matter who u are, were u from or ur gender, when u work hard and prove urself, u will stand out. Mama didn't become a professor by d grace of feminism or gender equality. it took hardwork and diligence. As at 1985 when she became a VC it was under d regime of then president babagida. IBB was a Muslim northerner and head of d Armed Forces Ruling Council(AFRC) d highest decision making body in d land. Most members of d AFRC were northern Muslims and all soldiers but they all had tremendous respect 4 mama not because of feminism or gender equality but cos she had proved herself and continued doing so as VC. while she was at UNILAG, she worked at d institute of education 4 ten years.she distinguished herself and this was her stepping stone 4 greater success in d academia. if mama could succeed in 1985 with no internet or gender equality mentality, under a military regime, then what's ur excuse? success as woman will never b given 2u on a platter. U have 2 prove urself and when u do, no Jupiter can deprive u of ur place in history 5 Likes |

lexy2014: You don't get it. But for the struggle of feminism many years ago, Grace Alele Williams' father would not have bothered sending her to school because there was the mentality that girls did not need to be educated. And Grace was all about women empowerment. You should read some of her articles. don't understand why people deliberately misunderstand feminism. You think women want things handed to us. Less than 100 years ago, we could not vote; we could not hold top positions because our "delicate" brains could not handle it. We were better off barefoot and pregnant. I am a senior contract manager in one of the top construction firms in Qatar and the only black female in the entire building of over 300 staff members. I know I will not be here today if those women didn't fight and die for the right to be more than house wives. Every body should be a feminist especially men who would only be fathers to daughters. |

AyilaraFingar: Ofcourse especially in Nigeria. We may have the right to vote and work now but we are still being held back in the name of "culture". A woman is viewed as a failure no matter how much she has achieved if she is not married. Even though the failure rate of Nigerian marriages is at a whooping 45.92 % in 2012 ( I handled a lot of divorce cases back in the day so this is a high Court statistics). In some cases, we earn less than men for doing the exact same positions. Women are not considered for top military positions even though it is seen as per other advanced countries that women can hold their own on the battle field. Many brilliant military strategists have been the wives of legendary conquerors over history but they are always relegated to the back. For me, the issue of 'bride price' in Nigeria is a major source of concern. Because instead of the average man to see their wife as the girl that they wooed and asked to marry and spend their life with them as supportive partner; they end up seeing the girl as someone they have bought and paid for( even if the bride price is miniscule). They become lord and master and claim to have religious backings. They expect the wife to bury her dreams and aspiration and raise their kids instead of striving to create a balance where both of them can attain a level of personal fulfilment. I could go on and on but I think these are some of the modern day needs for feminism. Feminism no be feminazi. I think there is where many men get it twisted. Feminazi want control or superiority. feminists want equity. equal treatment for equal work done. |

CreamyMoltenLar:You are completely our of context. My husband is my superior as the head of the house. Not just because he is a man. That's my belief as a Christian. Superiority is social is determined by education leadership position financial status social status and not gender. So no, my husband is not equal to everyman. I'm a woman. I have male staff who are my subordinates. Are they my superior because they are born male?

AyeeIdris: Some of You Women, just like the SNAKE, are so Calculating, Manipulative and Surreptitiously Deceptive! You are adept at spreading falsehood. And When caught-out, you change the goal-post and then twist the conversation. Grace Alele Williams, just like Funmi Ransome Kuti (the first Nigerian Woman to drive a vehicle), did not need any GENDER EQUALITY QUANGO, to achieve their success. They were educated by their Parents (Mother and Father), after which, through hardwork, diligence, persistence and a LARGE AMOUNT OF INTELLIGENCE, gradually rose through the ranks until they got to the Top. The richest Woman in Africa, Mrs Alakija, was not held down by anybody, but she worked hard and became what she is today. The "Imafidon family" has Male and female members that were so brilliant and super-successful, that they were mentioned in the Guinness Book of records! They did not ask for gender Equality because they know that they only need to be intelligent, hardworking and persistent, to achieve their goal in life. Just like Women, not too far back, MEN too, the black man, could not vote in America. So, it is not only women that could not vote. It was NOT a gender issue and it did not take Gender Equality farce, for them to achieve Universal suffrage. There are many successful , single Women all over the place, how anyone views them, is the person's "problem of perception". Dont use that as an 'excuse" to propagate Gender Equality. It is ingenious to even attribute marriage failure to men! It takes to (Man and Woman) to marry and to divorce. Blaming it in men is an example of the level of deceit in women like you. Success of Men on the battle field or in any endeavour of life, is a result of demonstrated intelligence, resilience, persistence, hard work and long suffering. Men EARNED it. They have no "body-parts" to give in exchange for it or use as a bargaining chip Some Women too have "earned" it, using the same attributes and methods but majority of your likes, always want to "GET IT", instead of EARNING it! You want it GIVEN to you, through whining and pushing forward your bosoms and V-shape! Sorry, that is Dead on Arrival. There are Women who earn more than a lot of men, simply because they are more productive and the Organisations VALUES their contributions, more than that of those men, so they get paid better. I am sure you wont wail about "Gender Equality" for those men. Same way, there are Men which the Organisation values their productivity more than that of similar Women and hence, pays them more. But lazy-azz Women who think because they have a bossom and a V-thing, think they must be treated "specially" and given what they do not deserve. Sorry, you are on a long thing. Did you get to where you said you are, in that Dubai construction company, using "bottom power and Female leg-ups" and do not deserve to be there. You know yourself. How many Women were involved in the heist of Osama bin Laden? None! How many women are in the Navy Seal or other Elite Forces, in Russia, America, U.K, Germany, Turkey, France, et.c.? Men are better and would always remain better, in certain things, especially those that require a lot "physical abilities". On a daily basis, l hear military top-brass complain about a situation where a female military officer could "not perform to par", due to the arrival of her monthly Period... Whose fault is or how is it a Man's fault that when she cant be deployed simply because she is rolling on the ground due to tummy or lower abdomen discomfort? Whose fault is it that less people watch the Female World Cup (compared to the standard and normal World Cup) and thus, generate less viewing rights, less sponsorship as a result of that viewing audience which then means that FIFA makes less money from it (infact, the World Cup is used to subsidise the Female World Cup!) and as a result of all these FACTS, they Women Team gets less Money from FIFA. I am sure we have all watched them at one stage or the other and felt like doing something more engaging and worthwhile. But Women will still say "gender Equality payment" irrespective of whether the organisation is running at a loss because of their femininity! That is absolute rubbish, uneconomical bullshyte and irrational expectation. Women and their "double speak"! Many Men would prefer not to pay Bride Price but it is the same gender (Their Mothers! ) that insists on it They always want to profit where they should not be profiting! Thus, paying bride price has become a "Cultural thing", an obligation to the "old folks", just to make them happy and satisfied. It has NOTHING to do with what goes on or happens in a marriage afterwards. Bride price-paid marriages fail, those ones where the bride price was not paid also collapse....and vice-versa. So, stop impugning useless reasons into a failed argument. EQUITY is when everyone (irrespective of Gender), is given the same opportunity to be whatever they want to be in life. No one stops women from becoming whatever they want to be in life, except their level of intelligence, will power, resilience and innate abilities. Men too face the same challenges and many Men have failed to meet the cut, to be thrown by the wayside and labelled the failures that they are. Why should it be different with women? Because they have Bosoms and V-within their leg? Well, those men too have a long thing within their legs so what is so special and different with the women? Many have come to realise that the only group of women that seek to dubiously confuse and surreptitiously use the farce that "Gender Equality" is, to try to achieve "that which they do not deserve", are those that are mentally lazy, unintelligent, insecure, weak and generally below average. The Enterprise is a place were "performance is rewarded according to contribution", even when a Woman is the head and CEO who decides who gets what. She wont throw her profit at a less productive employee, just because they share the same Gender, on the alter of "Female Quota". She is smart enough to know that it makes sense to reward-more, those who produce more, because that is how she herself, got and made it to the top. Trying to separate feminazzi, feminist, Gender Equality, gender Quota, Feminism e.t.c, which are the same thing coloured in different "semantical garb" but which still nothing more than "trying to give to most women, what they did not achieve and therefore do not deserve", is further demonstration of the surreptitious, deceitful and manipulative nature of Women proponent of such discredited effort. Women who stand-out in their chosen field, will always be rewarded according, applauded and appreciated, not based on their gender but on their intelligence and achievements, which they are proud to brandish. The "i-get-breast and V-thing" types will always be looked down for what they are: Usurpers and undeserving of any respect in the Human fields of endeavour. 3 Likes 1 Share |

YelloweWest: That is the point. If you are BETTER, .....you are BETTER and you will be Superior and better paid than those who are inferior to you, irrespective of your gender. You wont hear Dora Akinyuli shouting about gender equality because such women know that "It adds nothing to their Value", rather it equates them with Women who are intellectually deficient, lazy and average, if not outrightly inferior to other humans.

AyeeIdris:well said,points well made,but what you wrote here and from what I can devise from what you are citing is this,first and foremost the modern world have made every opportunity open to both male and female,u made some instances that are very false and far fetched which are,.(1),Military-lets be honest madam, very few women sign up in this sector in Nigeria,even in countries that include compolsry military programme for their graduates very few women stay on after this programme,before u argue this point,visit the centres they are registering for any of the Nigerian military service,very few of the candidates are women on a scale of 1/10,so obviously there will always be more men as oga at the top in the military service for a very long time,.(2)Culture-culture is the way of life, nothing can change culture, not even the modern age,religion and modern government can't change culture I can't talk much about this cos culture varies,and for you talking about culture means you want to reign supreme over the male race,so don't cover that up with gender equality/feminism,join feminazi to it,its all the same to me,...my conclusion is this,if you women are fighting against marriage abuse,or abuse/male harrasment in general,I'm sure most will give you support,(mind you in this age marriage is not compolsry,if a woman knows she doesn't want to be under a man in a marriage,she should just stay single),.there is no law in the constitution that gives prefential treatment to men,..a man is just a man(without explanation),and a woman will always be a woman (without explanation),its bare for all to see,..If you are opportuned to be learned than some men doesn't make you wiser than the whole men race,and if you have been harrased/abused by some men doesn't mean we are all the same,....gender equality can only be attained by very few women that work for it and ready to take what they want,gender equality is for the society,it can't work in an African home,.. |

AyeeIdris:neither of us was there 2no d rationale behind Alele-Williams' father sending her 2 school. I think u have done d man a disservice by insinuating that he didn't have d initiative as far his daughter's education was concerned. if a man was able 2 send his child 2 school in that era, that was a man who knew how 2b a man&father not a feminist. I worked in a bank sometime ago and I had d privilege of having several women as superior officers, operation managers &business managers. even d head of my unit was a woman.d bank always rewarded d value u brought irrespective of gender. d bank was even biased in favour of women when it came 2 transfers. during my time there, female staff are never transfered away from their husbands but married men could b transfered anywhere. if a female staff gets married and her husband is in another city or state, she will b transferred 2 where her husband is. But married men in d bank don't enjoy that luxury. At best they move their families to were they are or they shuttle between their station and d location of their families.isn't that gender inequality?like I said b4 when u prove urself u can never b ignored. D world recognises value and reward not minding gender. u have proved urself in a male dominated environment, in a conservative country as a black woman....what else are u looking 4? U are right I don't understand feminism because its neither here nor there 2 Likes |

YelloweWest:That's nice, personally though I don't believe in gender superiority. This issue of men being the head are vestiges of the ancient tradition in which men went out to hunt or generally use his brawns to 'feed' his family, while females stayed home and cooked and generally tended the home. In this day and age the new 'muscle' is money, which either gender can make, so the issue of gender superiority is redundant. I guess the whole head of the household thing is still being practiced for the sake of marital peace. You know us and our infamous egos. I personally won't consider myself superior to my partner. We're co-captains, decisions will be discussed. When there's a stalemate, the most logical opinion will stand. None of that head or oga of the house crap for me. |
