By who? I sure know it's not you.

Yep, that's why you marry your dogs, fvck yourselves and accept stolen from us. (I'm sure you know it's a crime to accept stolen money in your country?)

Free thought my ass! You guys are thieves.

iamJ:
I support it bro even did a thread abt it self

ToyinDipo:
Very elaborate, can you share the title of the text, I will like to read it.

NightHound:
'Feminism' should rather be replaced with 'Humanism' instead of 'Gender Equality.' That one is DoA since we recognize that there are marked differences between the sexes. Humanism, on the other hand, focuses on the one similarity that really matters when discussing fundamental rights. And since the essence of Feminism is to acknowledge the full humanness of women by extending all fundamental human rights (that are available to men) to women as well, humanism just makes the most sense.

As you've pointed out, our inequalities as human beings go far beyond gender. There's race, height, weight, complexion, IQ, and all that. But we don't apportion rights to people by considering any of these differences; even when certain physical attributes can have a huge bearing on the persons performance. In the end, what matters is that we are all human beings. And as human beings, we should have human rights. Not men's rights and women's rights. That's really all there is to equal rights and gender equality.

I like what you said about letting nature take its course. But the status quo does not do that. Male privilege is like federal character or affirmative action - hugely flawed. It does not allow people achieve based on the merit of their abilities. And do men really need a leg-up in that sense? Male excellence cannot be presumed, it has to be tested and proven just like female capabilities should be. Human beings should be born with equal value to society; they should enjoy opportunities available to them without any unnatural discrimination; and they should establish their ultimate relevance based on their individual abilities. It's not always about sparring in a ring, sometimes, the battles are mental.

You imply that feminism has no place in Nigeria. I disagree. People talk about all kinds of flavours of feminism: socialist, radical, liberal, and even (I heard today) depressed feminism. I consider this nonsense. It's an unnecessary multiplication of related dogmas that only ends up creating confusion and stifling the movement. I believe that feminism is organic; it grows out of the soil. It's reactionary just like any other movement that pushes back oppression. If women aren't oppressed, they won't react to oppression (Newton's third law). And the kind of reactions will differ across the globe. Feminism cultured by Nigerian misogyny is different from feminism cultured by Arab, or American misogyny. The manifestos are drawn up accordingly. But at the root of it all is that women want to thrive to their full potential in an environment without unjust influence. And in our own context, unjust influence would include (but is not limited to) things like shaming (or stigmatizing) women for some of their choices even when these choices are perfectly legal; and creating double standards of judgement for moral conduct. These things aren't natural, they're impositions.

I'm not sexist neither I'm a feminist
But I stand against the oppression of females
And I encourage and love seeing women growing up career wise,making their own money without fear and by overcoming any kind of limitations they encounter

Daeylar:
Thought provoking.

IamiKayJayCee come and see this.

Although shey you see what I'm saying? He says gender equality is dead on arrival that we should move to humanism, you see say we get problem?

ibkayee:
Spot on. Particularly the bolded, women definitely aren't perfect, but it tickles me when they deny that there is such a thing as male privilege lol

See their mouth like 'eQuAl oPPorTUniTiEs' lol

IamiKayJayCee:
Superb. THIS IS IT. The one that solves it---the one that answers it. NightHound, you just sealed it with this.

You is getting mine seal of approval.

AHCB:
Now we're getting somewhere.

I'm not saying self love is bad, I'm saying too much of it is bad. That my dear is what the OP is about. I even mentioned it here, she loves herself so much to the point of having issues with her boyfriend and not even bothering to even talk things out with him. Like she can't be bothered, she loves herself so much not to give a damn. She hates confrontation. That's what I was trying to point out.

My dear, too much of everything is bad. When one go about screaming about self love, it gets to ones head. Hubris, selfishness and greed comes in.

I love you that's why I replied your mention, now if I love myself too much why should I be bothered about replying your mention?

Hope you get my drift, babe?

IamiKayJayCee:
No, he ended their confusion. That's the FINAL word. There's no where to shift to again. The "STATEMENT" I mentioned the other time, he just provided me with - or reminded me of - the right word for it --- [color=indigo]HUMANISM[/color].

That's the END OF THE LINE. [color=darkgreen]There's NOTHING after humanism[/color].

pocohantas:
Nighthound!!!!!!?

trustyshoess:
Too much wisdom in one post!

pocohantas:
LOL. You are kinda right, seems you're familiar with all the baboons. But it wasn't that one, it was one of his followers. Who will do anything to twist a post, same thing they have done to feminism

Rukkydelta:

pocohantas:
Emasculation of dicks...
Btw, I noticed they can't accuse guys in support of feminism of being heartbroken, ugly, old or used and dumped. So, they wait for females to pick on with those lines

makydebbie:
If you say so.

NightHound:
It's mine. I'll take your suspicion as a compliment

Wow,I'm surprised,you've said it all,many people don't really know the meaning of feminism. African feminists should emulate leaders like Angelic kidjo,Chimanda etc

encourage them to aspire higher and be useful to themselves first before the society, not perching on social media and crying wolf when nobody is attacking their sheep.

Most of them know the truth but they chose the wrong lane just because of their selfish interests and egos.You and I know that discrimination and domination is inhumane.


Between......frogs are good for your health,try it and thank me later(lol).

Daeylar:
Chaii

Gosh, if dem say make you define fairness and equal standard now ?? how you want take do that one?

They will now tell you the bible standard and quote bible for you that the bible didn't make anybody equal

It's when it comes to equality that the bible becomes their favourite book, if it's fornication now and fucking before marriage, or even having side chick in and oyt of marriage, no one will remember that there is anything like bible.


I'm just laughing anyhow here

Lol, don't mind me jor.
