Thebabenextdoor:
I don't get this one
Is she speaking for men or against them.

Hedonini:
I like you on one kind level o, but abeg shaaaraap. Your feminism is inconsistent and incoherent, and you have no idea of a Man's struggle.

Abdulnur:
formerly slay queen, then a novelist now a Forensic Medic with specialization on Cardava/autopsy.

She said: “There is nothing a woman should be because she is a woman, and there is nothing a man should be because he is a man

“Women are not special, women are human, women are flawed just like men… If we keep saying women are special, then we judge them at a higher and unfair standard

Colourich:
Did she just say women are not special?

Maket:
Men are socialised not to ask for help but to suppress every difficulties that comes their way but women are socialise to ask for help. Hmmmmmmmmm

CSTR1005:

Believe it or not, she is an equalist.

She doesn't want men opening doors for women either.

NwanyiAwkaetiti:
When women start changing their car tires by themselves, then we will know we getting there.

Afam4eva:

Maybe if you understood the true meaning of feminism, you won't be asking.

Adonis3:

‎I usually don't agree with this woman coz she dey overdo sometimes but I can't she's absolutely right on this one.

I keep telling people that most so called/self acclaimed feminists we have today aren't real feminists in the actual sense of FEMINISM, they're simlply feminists-wannabees.

True feminists fight for equality and on the other hand would refuse to be given special treatments because they're women.

A real feminist would refuse to attend a party that sets gate fees for guys and makes it free for women.

A real feminist would sometimes open car doors for her man simply because she loves him and not allow him to do it for her only because she's a woman and should be treated like an egg


You think say we guys sef no like make dem treat us like egg?

‎

I know say some mumu girls like this one no go understand.

Hmmm..but some feminist will disagree on this...
Seems the husband's d**k is now hitting the right spot
Brain resetting take ti over..

Daeylar:
I love these parts.


All these stupid reasons and excuses of "because she is a woman, because he is a man" when we expect people to just follow rules blindly, need to end.


True. This can lead to them holding women to unnecessarily higher standards than they do men. Refusing to allow women live their lives in peace. And when you ask their reasons, they say, because he is a man, because she is a woman


I wonder if men will still fight her on this thread just because she is a feminist, even if she is speaking favorably for men

bidemz:
She has a point tho, but why is it that she must always attributes everything to feminism?

Confused being

pansophist:
The problem is that feminist words and actions are diametrically opposite. Showing women your emotions is an attraction killer, you're appear weak in her eyes and the count down has begun for her to dump you for someone perceived stronger.

I think men subconsciously knows this and makes them instinctively suppress their emotions or at least, not show it in the presence of women

One of world's most celebrated author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, has revealed in a speech why men have a higher rate of dying by suicide.



Speaking while giving a speech at Hubspot’s 2018 Inbound Conference, award-winning Nigerian author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, revealed that men have a higher rate of dying by suicide as opposed to women.

She attributed the situation to patriarchy, which she says is both a blessing and a curse to men, adding that men are trained to suppress emotions, not to show vulnerability or ask for help.



She said: “Both men and women suffer from the illnesses that lead to suicide but it is men that have a much higher rate of dying by suicide.

“Why? Because men are socialized to suppress so many human parts of themselves, men are socialized not to ask for help, men are socialized to be afraid of fear, men are socialized not to show vulnerability.

“From the moment we tell a little boy that ‘boys don’t cry’ or we tell a hurting teenager to ‘man up’ we are creating an adult man who will be cheated of the full range of his emotions. So, while men benefit from patriarchy, they also suffer from it.”

The ‘Americanah’ author also spoke on gender equality, saying there is no difference between men and women, adding that women should not be viewed differently or given special treatment.

She said: “There is nothing a woman should be because she is a woman, and there is nothing a man should be because he is a man.

“Women are not special, women are human, women are flawed just like men… If we keep saying women are special, then we judge them at a higher and unfair standard.”
