You are generalizing. Some women already do all that and some get bashed for it.

stupidity:
ofcourse women have rights to all these you mentioned.

But does the equal rights ends there? You know what equal rights is don’t you? Rights to everything and all things.


[b]Until women starts approaching men on the streets, woo men and end up proposing to and paying a man’s dowry. [/b]That’s only when I will take your course or whoever is in this course serious.


You don’t agitate for equal rights that’s only of interest to you and leave the vital ones.

undecided everyone knows men are physically stronger than women, no dispute. However, with technology, the need for physical strength is gradually being phased out. I can change my tire and I can top the pressure on my tire. Go check Amazon there are many gadgets there that make these tasks so much easier. Another example, before you would need a man’s strength to drive a nail, now all you need is a nail gun. Let me not even start with power drills.

All that doesn’t mean men and women don’t need each other.

I agree. However, it’s beginning to change though. More women are increasingly starting to recognize their self worth, hence the backlash from men.
Deepfeel:

Nigerian women Don't have high self-esteem, the training they got from their parents even contributes to their low self-esteem, most of them don't know their worth, marrying a rich man is an ultimate achievement for most of them in life, they see themselves as weaker vessels like their religion make believe, they see men as superior, even those women richer than men, give men money to pay for their bride price, to show they are under a man, the problem is right from the African culture and religion

I never brought physical aspect to it you did.
Even when you quoted you never initially stated physical aspect but all of a sudden you have gone there so who is shifting the goal post now.
Besides is physical aspect the only thing that make men superior to women.
Some women are exceptions to such notions.
Soft work hard work yet men and women even though at different percentages still do the so called soft work and hardwork.

In simple terms
Equal participation means it is open to everybody.
Simple english, and yes we are wired differently even men among themselves they are wired differently and different in some aspects it is an individual thing that we are wired differently does not mean it should not be open to everyone which is where diversity comes in.

After you made this statement I was expecting you to say that you will organize and stage a protest in front of the national assembly or aso rock with your fellow women that you guys need equal participation in war front. Women participation will start from attending to wounded soldiers. You'll do it the same way some women stage a protest that they want equal participation in national assembly. Whereas, no one is stopping them from contesting. grin grin. You women protest for job where A/C de blow left and right, and money de pump in up and down. Na sweet place and sweet job una de fight for equality but a life threatening job, where chances of dying is higher, una no de protest for that one. Chai. Women una too like comfort. grin grin grin

u mean a mechanised car jacker? ok i will check it up. anyway i was thinking u were using a manual car jacker. anyway when lady is doing physical work its always natural for a man around to offer to help because thats the right thing to do and simple courtsy demands it.any man who sits back and watch his wife or girlfriend trying to change oil in the generator or trying to fix the switch or bulb in d house is not a man.

I totally agree with you. A lot of Nigerian men embrace a very toxic form of masculinity. The more misogynist a society is, the more you see this toxic masculinity ish.

The Nigerian society for example puts a lot of pressure on men. Their worth is usually defined by material things like their salary and not their character.
We all know how fickle material things are and truth is majority of men will always belong to either the middle or the lower class.

Since a lot of men also do not know how to communicate properly because it is interpreted as showing weakness, they tend to bundle up all their emotions.
The inability of not being able to handle your emotions and talk about how you feel means you having to eventually let it out in other ways.

This is usually done by hiding their vulnerability as well as insecurities behind anger.

A broke man, who knows society approves of men with big pockets is more likely to complain about gold diggers, even though he doesn't even really have the gold.

It's a man whose worth and respect is tied to his pocket that will feel insecure when he meets an independent lady. He'd rather go for a woman who depends on him financially, so he can complain with his pals about how women are useless and bring nothing to the table.

He's more likely to never date a woman who has more money that him. His excuse? "They can't handle succes".



From your comment, it sounds like men are confused and narcissistic.

These days, it seems like the test of a man is in how much he can insult ladies and call them lewd names

when you buy tomatoes from Market you have every right complain if you feel the price is too high or you discovered that they are rotten
Those men only complain that after buying a vagina they discovered that it stank like rotten fish or it is a well.
