"He who talks too much Cannot talk well"
This Chimamanda of a lady is beginning to talk too much

Gbam !
People need to understand what true feminism is
Here is my letter to so called feminists :

Ladies and Women, please be guided.
Feminism isn't a battle against men.
It isn't about labelling one gender good/evil or mediocre/superior

Personally, I am a feminist, yup ! and I am a guy !
Feminism doesn't mean you shouldn't carry out certain roles and duties, which you should.

It shouldn't make you rude and uncultured all in the name of being "strong"


Back to the issue of roles, God has made you the female folks-mothers, and there is nothing we can do about it, he gave you breasts, a womb and a passage for babies for a REASON.So, because of all these, a natural responsibilty has been placed on you as a home maker .Roles ! Duties !

Don't let your fight for equality get in the way of your duty.You have to understand that you can't get equality in everything.You have to also understand that there are so many ways you as women are even more superior than men.For example, pain threshold, did you know that women can withstand more pain than men ?, there are so many physical,emotional and pshycological facts I can pull out.

Feminism means, a man should not be given a upper hand in a job/work place etc, because he is a man !, if he is selected, it should be because he is qualified/capable

Heck ! feminism also means you as a woman should'nt be given preference because you are loaded with gigantic mulele in front of you and behind you !.Yes I am a feminist and I would feel cheated as a guy if you are chosen over me because of that, if I am more qualified than you are !.This is true feminism

Moving on, feminism also means when we go out for dinner, I don't have to pay all the time , because "I am a man", you should pay sometimes too !.I should only have to pay ALL THE TIME, if you don't have money, or I choose to, or you don't have a job.Heck !, why don't you have a job !, why don't you have a skill ! !, you are a feminist remember !.Do something with your hands and don't be a liabilty, being a liabilty only makes you an hypocrite and you are not practicing true feminism .!

Having said that, marriage is a little different, men o men !!, your wives are are human beings too, help them out with the kids when they are tired, they are bone and flesh too and they get tired !.Help her cook sometimes.But don't over do it, else you might be turned into a footstool.Respect her and appreciate her efforts, even if its her duty !.She is an helper, not a slave !.You didn't buy her, you married her ! and she married you !.Hence you are partners !

Buy gifts occasionally , celebrate her, make her feel on top of the world , even if its her duty !.

Women, respect your husbands, commend him as well, help him out when he is broke even if "he is the man of the house, and its his responsbility", even if he isn't broke, attempt to shoulder some financial responsibilities sometimes.You are partners !.Appreciate him.Don't just f**king brag about it like most of you do, when you help out financially.

Remember, wisdom is the principal thing, knowledge is light, and love is life.Combine these well and you would be happy

Women in Africa are going through a lot of struggles. Many are living in poverty and not educated. It amaze me how few educated one will see feminism in Africa as a gender fight and some equality rights. There are loads of hinderance to the feminism cause in Africa, these have to be tackled first.

Bluezy13:
Finally, someone to talk sense into her!

She was given an inch, she thinks taking a mile is best for her, not knowing the number of people standing on the table she was shaking.

Good thing it's coming from a female...
An American at that.

majekdom2:
why don’t you research well before you make post. The problem with women inAfrica is same with men... poverty and lack of basic infrastructures to make for a good living. How many girls are in school in the north, how many northerners are in school? Tackle poverty, women rights and then gender equality. It’s a sad situation because we can only tackle poverty ourselves unfortunately we are not ready. Forget any sugar talks of nations and communities saying they are helping you tackle poverty. Nations don’t develop with grants... have you seen any? Tell me one. Is it not someone who has money that buys a car, who will fight for women being able to drive in Saudi if not that the women are doing well to buy cars. They tackled poverty... they are a rich nation. Feminism, gender equality or whatever is a cause to be advocated last in a nation associated with poverty!

MrLouisVanGaal1:
Put her in her place.. There are better issues to champion with regards to being a woman in Africa than trying to sow some devlish western feminist ideas to some confused women who are looking for educated but not smart people to champion their cause such as this woman.

TalkTalkTwins:
Before you start hating on Chimaamanda, you have to hate on yourself first. Must you side the woman because she attacked CNA?
Okay, check this out...

- She said that female genital mutilation is predominant in Nigeria, how many people still practice that today? How did she confirm it?
- Must it be Adichie that will attack the female genital mutilation? Can't you do that or is your only life on NL? When will you get small sense to know that someone else is speaking her opinion and you are entitled to yours?

Seriously the hate is getting out of hand and she is going higher. The more you hate, the more she meets presidents!

From a loyal fan...

Daeylar:
Put her in her place??

Wow Wow wow

This is one of the reasons why she speaks so much about feminism, because deluded people think they can limit her ( and women) and tell her( and women ) what they can and cannot do and what they can and cannot talk about.

As evidenced by your post where you want to "put her in her place" and tell her the issues she should champion or not.

resurgent2019:
Which our own? Does she identify with Nigerians?

They should hammer her well and possibly deport her sef. I know CSTR or whatever will quote me. I no send you ooo.

The NRA should send her back to igboland. Her igbo tribe is under the jackboots of Yorubas and Hausas in Nigeria and she has the guts to tell Americans what to do in their own country.

Daeylar:
She doesn't need anyone to talk sense into her, she is not a child neither is she an idiot, that sounds so condescending m

Neither was she given any inch talk more of any mile, she made the way for herself and the world heard her.

just say you want her brought down because you hate that a woman is standing up for herself and challenging majority of the beliefs holding women back in the world and you don't like that.

4Play:
In their haste to indulge in their rabid irrational anti-Chimamanda tirade, they have taken the side of an American right-wing commenter denigrating Nigeria. These people are hilarious!

MajesticD:
Oh gawd...someone finally made some sense.
Chimamanda gave her personal opinion of a situation, of which she is very much entitled to, she never implied directly or indirectly that it should be a standard for the world to follow, but even more importantly she never insulted anybody by having a varied percept from the popular which i think is a quality of a truly educated and civilised person.
Now compare that with the response of so called American, go as far as bringing female genital mutilation IN HER COUNTRY to the discuss.
There is nothing wrong in pointing out areas a person feels feminist ought to champion and of course that's still a matter of personal opinion, but doing so in manner that implicitly or explicitly insults a country is a show of bitterness and classlessness.

Benita27:
With the way CNN depicts Nigeria, is that really what Nigeria is? Tell yourself the truth. You just don't like Chimamanda so your reason for supporting whoever shuts her up even when the said person isn't being objective enough.

JupiterGeekVII:
But Loesch is right. Adichie should be using her fame to bring light to the numerous issues affecting little girls and women in Nigeria.

CSTR1003:
Issues on equal rights for women does not hold water?

You are not the one to tell her what cause should appeal to her.

If she is not doing it to your satisfaction , you can take it up and become better than chimamanda.

CSTR1003:
Speak for yourself.

Benita27:
That's a lie. Nigeria of the 50s-90s isn't the same as Nigeria of today. Lots of awareness have been created that modern parents no longer mutilate their kids, and if they do in the rural areas, it's very low. When I say low, I mean low!

shammahyaro:
The female genital mutilation is really prevalent in the Northern part of Nigeria.Last year my friend's roommate gave birth to a beautiful baby girl so she packed out the hostel.She came visiting one day and was giving her baby some herbal drug and the little baby was around 8months then,someone in the room just asked her why she was giving the child drugs and she said the girl was circumcised some days back.Mind you this lady I'm talking about is educated and she's in 300level...Imagine the pain I felt,she was even telling us it's very very good sef

Abdullahi4u7:
Apart from being able to speak and right good English, Chimamanda Adichie knows nothing else.
