Again, is that what feminism stands for?
epelumi42:
When I said women should be free... Free from the box that men have placed them in. The patriarchal nature of the society. That's what they need to be free from. Freedom in many sense isn't an illusion unless you wanna get all philosophical. People decide their notion of freedom.

The question is, how do you define the dignity of womanhood without falling back to what the society has defined or what you have formed in your head. Why can't we all decide our notion of morality especially women?
grin

People decide their notion of FEMINISM.

Why can't we all decide our notion of what FEMINISM is?

Yes it's about power that's my own notion of what it's all about.

It's all about perspective.

According to Wikipedia, Feminism is a range of political movements, ideologies, and social movements that share a common goal: to define, establish, and achieve political, economic, personal, and social equality of sexes. This includes seeking to establish educational and professional opportunities for women that are equal to those for men.

Following many posts I've seen here on Nairaland, it seems like people, especially men hate the idea of women identifying with feminists. Based on the stereotype that many have created from the women who claim to be feminists, the definition has changed to a men-hating, men-defying movement.

Feminism does not mean that men should be hated for playing the superiority game, it means that men should learn to see women as equals and not subjects.

Feminism means that husbands and boyfriends should not judge a woman by her ability to cook and perform home chores. No. That's sexism. Feminism means women is just as a man, maybe not in physical features. If a man does not know how to cook, a woman shouldn't be crucified for not knowing how to cook too. If a man cannot wash his clothes, his wife should not be expected to wash it just because she's the woman. No.

Feminism means that women should be allowed to take the reigns of power because they are capable, and not denied based on their sex. They should be given an opportunity to compete with men for the same position and win based on merit, like everyone else.

Feminism does not mean women should not respect men, rather, men should respect women and vice versa because they deserve the respect, not because of their sex. Women should not be made to kneel to the man because he's Superior. No. She should be able to do it because she feels it's right. The same way a man should bow for his wife. No one runs the Monopoly of respect.

Feminism does not mean men should stop catering for women. It means both sexes should cater for each other of they have the means. It should be done out of love than chauvinism. Women can provide for the man when he is incapable and not expect the man to always be responsible for her wellbeing.

Feminism means that women can be surgeons, engineers, and men can be nurses and secretary. No job stereotypes.

Feminism is right because no one chose their sexes. Males and females have their strength and weaknesses and should learn to live with each other in love.
feminism is a sexist word and I hate it

I'd rather egalitarian which means equality for all people


feminism breeds extremists and men haters , it's also the perfect cover for lazy women to want equal power but not equal responsibility


is there any word that always needs to be defined over and over again. like feminism?

people just don't get it cause the word is sooooo sexist
again egalitarian is better

Feminism is not the same thing as freedom because it is not relative. Feminism has a defined cause and definition. Don't mix it up.

Many women of today are benefitting from Feminism that was started in the past, you need to read the history behind the movement, it has nothing to do with sexists against men instead it was the other way round.

Most people get the ideology of feminism wrong due to wrong information and different ideologies, feminism has been polluted, abused by people of today.

I use to think feminism was all about men-hating-competing group in the past due to ignorance.

Actually Feminism is about freedom/liberalism for women who were oppressed in the past by men.

Now that the freedom is there for women, there are still some sexism in the society against women especially in Africa and Asia.

Feminism is not bad, as a matter of fact, Feminism is the illumination of the society. Although Feminism due to the nature of our contemporary society is divided into two: True Feminism and False Feminism.

True Feminism is a movement that supports the Equality (in terms of rights and privileges), equity and fair treatment of women in the society, not treating them (women) as inferior or sub class beings. That's what it means and a True Feminist possesses the above ideology. A true feminist seeks and strive for gender equality (in terms of rights and privileges) and equity. A true feminist strive for the respect of women in the society. A true feminist strive for financial independency of women. A true feminist doesn't discriminate gender wise. The motto of a True feminist is " What's good for the man is likewise good for the woman. What's bad for the man is likewise bad for the woman". A true feminist is a strong woman, a woman of honour, dignity and respect.
BUT
False Feminism on the other hand is a movement formed by some confused women trying to bring Feminism into their confusion. This particular movement proposes total male dominance and control. It is also a misandrist movement.
False feminist are the ones upholding such ideology. False feminist aren't Feminist at all but just confuse feminist wannabe who doesn't know what feminism is all about. This are the ones giving a bad name to Feminism. They mar it's image.

Funnily, Nigeria is a Feminist nation because it offers equal opportunities, rights and privileges to both gender educationally, security wise, careerly, professionally, politically etc. So the question I always ask myself is, what then do feminist want in Nigeria.

Anyways, Feminism, True Feminism is good. It is an eye opener, a social deliverance to a social bondage. It is a noble course. It should be encouraged not discouraged.

The ideology of feminism is not bad, but in practice, especially third wave feminism is destructive and evil, to even put it mildly.

Modern feminism undermines the inate differences between sexes, is built on double standards, a safe haven for misandrist and even if women preach for gender equality, they still refuse to give up benefits that comes with patriarchy.

For example, corporations favours employing women to men, and this is the first time in human history where society see a massive shift of women out earning men. Even at that, they still expect men to pay for date. Just to name one.
That's odd

Then the problem is lack of indoctrination and awareness.

Indoctrinate the women, create awareness, let them know about feminism, it's objectives, aims and advantages. Let them be charged and encouraged to embrace and practice it.

the term "feminism" originated from a French word "feminisme" and was coined by the utopian socialist Charles Fourier and was first used in English in the 1890s in association with the movement for Equal political and legal rights for women .


do u get it now the word "feminism" was always to be a woman's thing , it was built for their ideals , men never really had a place in that. and they have gotten the equal legal and political rights , so what's still the hot sh!t about?

The word " Egalitarian" also means equal rights for all people , so why don't we use that word instead

why don't people go around calling themselves Egalitarians instead of using a word with a sexist prefix like feminist

in today's society there is no limitations for women ! they can be whatever they want to be , if they don't want to cook then they should not cook , if they don't wanna be housewives then they should not be

they should stop with playing the victims all the time, no one is oppressing u !!!



they should drop the sexist label "feminist" , they don't need it to be a strong independent woman

Did you read my post well?

Feminism came out when women can't take the oppression in the society by men, do you know the years women have been oppressed by patriach men?

Even in the so call holy books, you can see how women are degraded and oppressed. Feminism is not sexism against men instead it's the other way round.

So yes feminism has to do with women's rights and liberalism, there's nothing wrong with that, there are even male feminists, the problem now is the wannabe feminist we have today that knows no iota about the true ideology of Feminism.

Kindly read history how feminism started.

It won't be an easy thing, social myth like cultures, religion won't make it easy.

We need to encourage them(young girls, women) in critical thinking and reasoning, by that they will know what's good for them. Indoctrinating sounds like what religious people do to kids.

no it seems YOU didn't read my post(s) well

like u just said feminism started out when "women" wanted to escape oppression by "men"
so u see it was never about men who also are oppressed by women and society

it was never really a man's thing ,it was the oppressed (women ) Vs the oppressors (men)

and that's whats still going on today , a lot feminists act anti-man , they are always going in about how men are chauvinistic , misogynist, egoistic , we are the bad guys ,t he oppressors and they are the oppressed

and I get a lot of guys are like that but feminists go to the extreme

now if ur really about true equality for both sexes women should also advocate against patriarchy not just when it suits them ,
like CAPSLOCKED said feminism can't survive when women don't even advocate for it cause they don't wanna give up their benefits






so overall I'm saying I believe in equality that's why I don't want the word "feminism" it's a sexist word having feminine as it's prefix

I prefer the word "Egalitarian ". they supposedly mean the same thing
but Egalitarian is a gender neutral word

Feminists are like activists, fighting for women's rights, it's no different from other activists group. I really don't see anything wrong with it.

Looking at history the society has always favor men than women, in Saudi Arabia women can now drive because of the cry of the women activists(now jailed), these women sacrifice themselves for this struggle.

Whatever you want to choose it's your choice, but most women activists prefer calling themselves feminists since it suit thier ideology.

like u just said feminist fight for women's right

and I have no issues with that but u see I believe in gender equality too , so I'm not fighting for women's right I'm fighting for men's right tooo

I'm aware of male feminist but mind u there are men that are women too .

in developed countries and in Nigeria women have already been freed legally , of course Nigeria still has tribalism and religion holding them back , but that's the beauty of it
being held back is now a choice !
a lot of women are aware of Feminism but CHOOSE to ignore it


do u think that we are the only ones with beliefs ? or that our beliefs (gender equality) are correct and everybody's elses is wrong?!

everyone has right to believe whatever but everyone knows now that in Nigeria the only limitation to women is in their mind, their choice!
and mind u there's difference between women empowerment and Feminism

a lot of women are empowered and go around empowering women but still believe in male patriarchy ( the man is the head of the family) and it works for them and they are happy, they are not feminist!

but the sick thing is feminist go around acting like they are the wise and correct ones and anyone who thinks Feminism is sh!t is either a slave (if it's a woman) or a misogynist (male) and we are the bad and stupid ones


and I'm also complaining about the title "feminist" it sounds really sexist

.. My brother,please don't get things mixed up,feminism is never bad,what is bad is the way most "let me borrow your exact words" the feminist wannabe go about it. Most of you are quick to conclude that Nigerian men are against but what have you guys done to enlighten the so called wannabes on the right way of going about it? Most of you will not condemn the atrocities and the negative ways they go about it and when people complain,you guys rush to claim that those complaining doesn't understand the movement. Who told you they don't?. Does feminism teaches one to be rude,disrespectful, hateful towards men?. No. Why not start teaching those wannabes polluting the movement the right way to go about it. Most men are not happy with the movement and grouped all the feminists so because most of them possess and act same. Who wouldn't be confused if all you hear most of them scream is only about equal rights without the corresponding responsibilities that comes with it? I for example doesn't see anything wrong with the movement because its a good thing that are women can stand on their own without waiting for the man to do everything. I think you people should to more on educating the so called wannabes because they are the ones destroying the movement. Every girl that has a broken relationship,divorced or ugly claim to be a feminists and you people advocating for it welcomes them with open arms without finding out it they truely understand the meaning of the movement. Don't blame men who are not in support of it rather,blame ur so called wannabes and you advocates that has refused to teach them the right way to go about it.

In developed countries like America and Europe women's rights is like 80% achieved, in Asia and Africa women's rights is like 40%, imagine in 21 century Saudi Arabia are just giving women approval to drive cars, in the northern Nigeria women are subjected to men like slaves, so there are still work to be done.

A lot of women are aware of feminism but choose to be ignorant of it ideology, they are indoctrinated to believe they are lesser, they are indoctrinated to believe feminism is of the devil's work. This is how people are indoctrinated to believe other religions are evil and will go to hell.

Any belief that promote oppression of a fellow human is wrong.

What are the difference?

You're still getting feminism wrong, it's not a gender competition thing, it's for equal rights for the sexes, we have feminist who are married and happy, I still don't get your point?

but the sick thing is feminist go around acting like they are the wise and correct ones and anyone who thinks Feminism is sh!t is either a slave (if it's a woman) or a misogynist (male) and we are the bad and stupid ones
Is this part of the ideology of Feminism you quoted in your previous post?

and I'm also complaining about the title "feminist" it sounds really sexist
Is Black power movement ideology a racist?

there are other words that also mean gender equality why don't they go for those ones why do they go for such a controversial and confusing label
Feminism is a platform for women right activists just like Black power movement is for Blacks right activists.

Who wouldn't be confused if all you hear most of them scream is only about equal rights without the corresponding responsibilities that comes with it? I for example doesn't see anything wrong with the movement because its a good thing that are women can stand on their own without waiting for the man to do everything. I think you people should to more on educating the so called wannabes because they are the ones destroying the movement. Every girl that has a broken relationship,divorced or ugly claim to be a feminists and you people advocating for it welcomes them with open arms without finding out it they truely understand the meaning of the movement. Don't blame men who are not in support of it rather,blame ur so called wannabes and you advocates that has refused to teach them the right way to go about it.
I understand and I get your point, you made a good point.

But I'm yet to see the worse oppression women have done in history.

No bro, that's where you are mistaken. So far of late, there has been a lot of misconception, misinterpretation and misunderstanding about the Bible. The Bible as a matter of fact supports Gender Equality.

I'm not gonna go into details now but I will soon create a thread about it and when I do I will tag or mention you.

I'm starting a serial known as Critical Issues which deals with critically examining and evaluating issues in our societies. This issue of the Bible and Gender equality is one of the issues I will be talking about.

You can read episodes of Critical Issues on my profile page.

As I said earlier, I will tag or mention you when I create a thread about the Bible and Gender equality. Till then

Thanks.

So the saying that women should be silent in the church in the new testament is not against gender equality, let's not even talk about the old testament that treat women like shít, the Quran is also not left out.
