Feminists have no choice.

They must submit completely to a man. We're not asking - it's a demand. grin

They can keep delaying themselves until menopause turns them senile like pocohantas, it's entirely up to them.

In the end, they will kneel before a man, beg for his ring & his name and slave away their productive years in raising his kids.


This has been happening for centuries and it will continue to happen.

Facebook posts & nairaland threads can't change it.

There is nothing like gender discrimination against female in our society, instead, women get some extra privileges but WE ARE NOT COMPLAINING.

If you aren't interested in changing surname that is your choice, hopefully a man that will agree to that comes your way BUT unfortunately, your kids will bear HIS NAME grin

Now if you even agree with him that your kids won't bear only his name but will bear your surname in addition, it's okay as long as both names are names of MEN- your father and husband.

Don't forget that whether you change your name or not, you still bear a MAN'S name grin

You see the foolishness of feminists? You can't upstage men in the social order. You either accept it or you accept it!

Lastly, the HUSBAND is the Boss of the Wife in a home, he calls the shot and there is NOTHING anyone can do about it. Just as your class captain calls the shot in your class though all of you are mates, there was nothing you could so about it.

There is Gender discrimination in the society.... Against male and against female....

In the beginning God created Adam b4 eve, I think feminist needs to accept this natural phenomenon. No matter how we ladies wail, it can't change 'the beginning' I'm still wondering why God never created Eve first if actually he knows women will be the one to carry 90% of Child upbringing?
I like you, your level of reasoning attracted me to be frank. can we be friends?

Yes. That is why the bible asked women to submit. You don't use logic to follow men (as a woman). They love the damsel in distress. If you ain't submissive, please fake it...

And watch them labour all their lives to provide for you wink

We are in a society where women get special privileges as "Women Affairs Ministry", a lot of Department and Agencies for women alone, Women Directorates in parties, women empowerment schemes, women get free forms to contest elections where men pay MILLIONS for same. There are jobs vacancies that specifically state preference for females and even programs by international and local organisations for women. ZERO for men! Yet, we aren't complaining while you are whining

In social parties and some events women get free or discounted pass while men get to pay entry fee...

Yet, we aren't complaining because we are MEN, we allow you enjoy some privileges just as we give our younger siblings some benefits we don't enjoy grin

As for the last paragraph, I am restating it that the HUSBAND is the BOSS of the Wife. He's her Oga in the family hierarchy...

In every unit there must be a boss. Even in your place of work! In your class there is a captain, in your department there is Department President and leaders, in your church there is Pastor/G.O etc. In the society there is President, Governor etc. Even among Governors they have a chairman!

Why would anyone even agree to change their surname to their husband's? angry

Love? Why doesn't the man change his to the woman's? angry

The only thing is to take each other's surname. Example, if the man's is Henry, and the woman's is Doe, just make the new surname Henry-Doe angry Else, they leave everything as it'sangry

LuciferKristi:
pocohantas is a frustrated and jilted being.

Her hatred for men is borne out of years of sexual exploitation which has reduced her self-esteem to zero. She makes up for this by coming online to vent her frustrations on others & by misleading innocent young girls (like her mentor Linda Ikeji who has abandoned her & is living the happiest moment of her life with a man).

Pocohantas tries to make every other woman think miserably because she can't find happiness in herself.

Intelligent women find men & live happy while the dumb ones join her in misery.

I'm happy to let her have the dumb ones. grin

The question the guy suppose to have asked this stench feminist is, why are u bearing your father's last name not your mum's?


You are wrong. Why not bear your mother's maiden name?
Or even marry the dad? And continue bearing his name, confusionists everywhere.

Its very easy Nigerian Men should start their own
Anti bride-price movement
Such a movement will be inherently feminist in nature because if achieved some men,
especially the traditional one will lose one of their bragging rights.

Lol
Thery are things u can't change.
We have more things to worry about than all those frivolities.

U wont change ur surname to ur husband's?
U still retained ur fathers name,
Why not ans ur mothers name?

Its just like saying all women should bear female names both as first name and surname.

Mind u as a feminist, u are not fighting ur husband,
U should be fighting the entire male folks...... So dont even ans ur fathers name, go on and answer
Mary Roseline
You don't get it. Let us say a family have 2 children a boy and a girl.
When they both marry, the woman loses her family name while the man retain his(inequality).
When a married woman decide to retain her maiden name she becomes equal to the man in that
aspect. That is, everybody regardless of gender can retain their father's name.

Bible apart, it is also basic male ego at play. I work with so many of them. Behave too independent and they see you as just another man. they don't like it , makes them feel under-appreciated and utilized.

Behave the opposite, chill and watch them play god. I don't even know why feminist are stressing themselves. Men were created to make life very easy for women. You just have to know how to handle them smiley

As an enlightened guy, you should know by now that surnames can be changed as easily as other names can be changed. angry

So the woman CAN ACTUALLY change her surname to a name of her choice. angry So don't say that the surname is still her father's name because it makes you sound ignorant and too presumptuous angry. Some people have actually changed their surnames angry

As for men calling the shots, you sound quite ignorant there. angry If the woman says no, you CANNOT do shìt but whine all day long. angry You end the marriage? Have you ever for one day thought that a woman COULD pull the plug before you even think about thinking about pulling it? angry

These are things men never think about before flying into marriageangry That woman you dey talk about is a full blown human being who is in no way inferior to you. angry She can hurt you as badly as you can hurt her. angry She's an independent being as much as the man is one. angry

My guy, throw those preconceived stuff into the trashcan, and see the human being, not the pussy angry. If not, these species go deal with you. angry

I just gave you undisputable FACTS but you call it whine. SMH!

Whining is constantly taking to social media and the street to keep complaining about something- which YOU and your deranged feminist folks are doing.

The facts I presented is to show you that women are favoured in the society and NEVER discriminated. I call the favor privileges WE (MEN) allow to woman and not discrimination against men. There is a difference between both!

And if enslaving ourselves is what you seek, IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!

These are facts NOT opinion

Assumptions are bad, my guy. angry
Changing surname is as easy as changing any other name. So she can go change her surname to a name of her choice as an adult before even getting married. angry

Also, changing surname to the man's basically says, "this is my home". What about the woman? angry Yeah, it says, "she is just another tool in my home so I give her a name to bear" angry

These are all stupid traditions that are so dumb that I don't even know how women's stupidly accepted them down the ages. angry I guess religion and traditions that basically stripped them of every iota of self worth in order to make them the perfect tool for men angry

Will the name be changed to a masculine or feminine name? Say Grace Jenifer grin or Grace Adaeze? If the answer is negative, then, it is still a MAN'S name or Masculine name tongue

Not every man is a pu5sy aka woman wrapper my brother and even the pussy-husbands have limits to which they can take. Las las the Home will be a very unhappy one for the family and may end in divorce-- what this means is that a home without the Husband IN CHARGE will NEVER WORK, just as an organisation without the MD in charge will never work. NEVER!

These are things men never think about before flying into marriageangry That woman you dey talk about is a full blown human being who is in no way inferior to you. angry She can hurt you as badly as you can hurt her. angry She's an independent being as much as the man is one. angry

Ignorant submission. The Husband is the boss of the wife doesn't mean men are superior to women.

Not everyman is a husband and not every woman is a wife! The husband's authority is restricted to his wife ALONE,not to his mother or elder sister or any random female.

Same way your boss authority is restricted to you and other subordinate and doesn't concern me. Dangote has NO authority over me because he is not my boss but he has over Dangote staffs. Buhari has no authority over a Ghanaian as Nigeria's President but he has over Nigerians.

Your class captain in school had authority over you, he was your boss! But he had no authority over the guy in the other class...

Las Las, the HUSBAND is like a office in a unit (home) occupied by the man in the marriage. In the marriage Unit he is the OGA, THE BOSS, THE NUMBER 1, THE GOC etc.
