AntiBrutus:


Ahahn, she is one easy going chick. How did you guys get to that?

Anyway, stick to this account for now. There is something about alternates, they make you miss lots of juicy updates, so you react less. Oriaku, be nice to sisters kwanu. We need each other

yes we need each other.
Not throwing each other under the bus

donstan18:


She meant Lala.s247


@Embolden, you are smart.

Yea, I just realised who she was referring to.

We sabi the work, my main account @pocohantas was created in 2014. Despite my history of man-hating, it took me almost 4yrs to get a ban and I went personal that day. So, I knew I would be banned. Other than that, I sabi the work

Chikita66:
You just picked the domestic violence part and left the rest, that what feminists do.

there are other themes in a book!! But thats the part that kept me interested in the book!! U said it's not a feminist book n all i plead that u ask Google!!

OriakuAmara:

You can say that again. I like this username more though.
Happy Sunday

AntiBrutus:
Lala isn't a 'she'.
Lalasticklahlah is a man.

That said, there are ways you insult politely, none of the rules will apply ..........Oriaku, please learn the trick ......

Are you sure about this?

Just check please!! U ladies really need to stop insulting others just to seem intelligent to others!!

Lol, you don't expect a steady disser of politics section to know how to insult politely , they give it raw with no attempt of refurbishing .

I know you do trick insult and people fall for it and get banned , I de observe am......U knw say I no get wahala

but u said it's not a feminist novel why then is there research abt it in such contest!!

Your description of "feminism" in the novel seems like a stack contrast to the way it was was described in the novel.

How can you say that even now a girl child training is seen as a waste of resources on some places when I have seen countless times when fathers train their daughters in school and send their sons to learn a trade or craft, even while in school, parents send more money to their female child when compared to the male child.

How is a world without men not violent when we women are our own worst enemy, men can live together in a room without back stabbing, fighting and snatching girlfriends but its opposite for women. lost of gossiping, fighting, quarrelling, etc which is why many girls prefer men as friends.

Did men also invent lesbianism? Also have you not heard of boys being sexually harassed and raped by girls?

Seriously stop being biased.

You feminists really amaze me, I listened to Beyonce flawless song where she was calling her fellow women "bitch", that's degrading, for someone that is fighting for her own gender.

Why will you search Purple hibiscus as a feminist novel ? , it's cheating.

Even if you search 'Purple hibiscus as a Nland Novel' , you'll still see some related shii

Shugavee:
lol so there was no woman maltreatment in that book??, chiamanda brought two families, that of Mr Eugene n anuty ufeoma!! To depict a home operated by a man n a woman, how Kimbili and jaja changed after going to anuty ifeomas house!! Kimbili is the main character, so making a lady the protagonist already makes its feminist book!!!! Most feminist writers reacted to the fact women are hardly made the protagonist in africian books!!! Eugene was made the antagonist!! Just Google feminism in purple hibiscus!

I really don't understand where you get your ideologies from. I'm writing a book and the protagonist is a woman but it's not a feminist book. Have you read half of a yellow sun? The protagonist is a woman too and is it a feminist book? So any book where a woman is the protagonist is a feminist book? You're drunk in the redefinition on feminism.


And no, women were maltreated in the book, men were too. Jaja and papa nnukwu were maltreated by Mr Eugene. Mr Ade Coker was maltreated too or are you going to ignore it?

You're so into feminism that you think Chimamanda brought the two families to prove how a man and a woman operate homes. Mr Eugene was a good man, the only snag there was his religious fanatism. Chimamanda wanted us to know how the children would've been if he wasn't that way. She wanted us to understand that a different environment would totally change the children and their beliefs.
Please I want you to note that, it wasn't because of a woman operated aunty Ifeoma's house that changed Kambili and Jaja, it was all about the religion bigotry. It was the new environment and meeting people with different mentalities like the priest, Amaka, Obiora and Chima. A different environment free from religious fanatics changed them.

greiboy:
What is her concept? and why is it different from our understanding of feminism? and more importantly, how does it support yours?

Good let me answer you.
If a teacher ask a class to define happiness,
Many students will have a different definitions of it but despite their different understanding, they should arrive at a conclusion that happiness is different from sadness.
So is feminism.

Chimamanda adichie understands feminism as a movement to correct anti women prejudices in the society,
Someone like Nkechi bianze understand feminism as a movement to make women equal to men in all ramification.

Me Oriaku Amara understand feminism as a movement to create a world where gender should never be a barrier for anyone whether man or woman to achieve anything.

Simple.
People must have different views about a concept

Shugavee:

u made a statement in ur search, u didn't ask a question....moreover it seems the way u are describing the book as feminist is not exactly how the book itself is.

Shugavee:

You went to type as a feminist novel..
The book is not a feminist book biko.

nope if it's not a feminist novel u won't see people doing research on it!! I know people who did their projects on purple hibiscus as a feminist text!! It's totally out of place to say it's not a feminist novel , just because there are other themes in a text!!!

Whenever you want to make a proper use of google, don't be biased, be straightforward to get a legit result and research.

You shouldn't have added 'Feminism' while searching.

@boldened feminism has nothing to do with males so ur 'man' there i take it as silent.......that said do u know ur idea is so against nature?

In those days and even now, girl child education is still an agenda embarked upon by many NGOs,
Yes, many see training a girl in university instead of a boy as a waste of resources ,
It do happen in some low income class families,

You can't compare men and women when it comes to corrupting the world, let's not go there.

I don't see Beyonce as a serious feminist,
She has never been, everything is for the camera.

Why don't you take Beyonce serious?

I guess because she stayed with her cheating husband or she uses degrading words in her songs.

Six of one, half a dozen of the other. it is still the same thing.

There is no major difference in any of the definitions.

Feminism was born out of an idea of a male dominated world. So equality between the sexes and correcting anti women prejudice is the same thing.

Nonetheless, how does gender wars and gender bashing translate into your definition of feminism which is "feminism as a movement to create a world where gender should never be a barrier for anyone whether man or woman to achieve anything"


>We have thousands of young girls raped everyday

>Many young girls still lacking access to proper education

>We have thousands of girls kidnapped everyday

>A lot of single moms are suffering through their teeth

And so on

Shouldn't that take up most of your time

Lol, i need to know her reason.

donstan18:

There is nothing feministic about her,
It's all fake and for the camera,

Apart from feminism,
when it comes to black women empowerment,
She flopped.

A lady who spend most of her career time trying to pass as a white woman,
She has a racial esteem issues

OriakuAmara:
how is it against nature?

there was already a barrier when nature made the F-gender assistants to achievements done by the males......so fighting now to be the master when u are naturally the P.A is uncalled for.......u should or can only fight for how the master treats his assistants.
