They also misogynistic and have control issues.


They were raised by people with the same messed up mindset and some of them weren't raised the same way but bowed to such behaviour due to pressure. Like you said. Low self esteem. Wanting to fit in with trash.

Ask them why they want control in the form of submission from a woman WHO DOESNT WANT Submission (after all there are women looking for men to be their head but they leave thise women and start attacking others who don't want such a lifestyle) they start repeating like trained parrots that the Bible says a woman must submit to her husband. Or their boring spiel about how a Captain cannot have 2 ships or is it a ship that cannot have 2 captains. grin
Nothing sensible. No personal reason. Acting like they are being controlled and unable to think things through logically and give a Reason why they want submission so bad, but these are the same men that want a woman to submit to them. These are the same men that want to lead others.

For those who keep insulting women, I don't wonder if they have sisters or mothers, I wonder if they have brains. They don't need to have female relations to know not to disrespect women, they know that, but they go about typing trash anyway. The trash they type about women with full confidence. Any human being with simple common sense would be ashamed to type even half of it. They are extremely foolish and comfortable in that foolishness, yet they raise their shoulders and think they've done something reasonable. It's honestly embarrassing.



Once again. You have finished work..
The funny part is that some of these men know better but refuse to do better. You'd be shocked to see those who are branded as young boys because they insult women are fully grown men who have just chosen to be stupid.
Besides. Youth is not equal to stupidity. Youth is not an excuse.

There are submission men in Nigeria look for them and let have peace

Dont mind dat spoilt brat, pouring out nonsense like mucous, see wat we are sayin, wen u refuse to marry a befitting wife but go for a beauty and money this is d result, i just pity her fada, am sure he must hav learnt his lessons a hard way,

pls orble, how can someone say her mother is nt a submissive type?? bible says out of d abundance of heart the mouth speaketh, for her to say this am sure her father has been totally reduced to rag, even if ur mum is nt submissive to ur dad dont come here and glorify it, saying I here shows how decayed she is, this is a nuisance to her generation/society,

Delivar:

I don't know what you understand by the word submission. Submission doesn't mean a woman should be treated like a slave and not have a voice at all. When you have a group of people united for a common cause it is always necessary to have a leader that will spearhead their collective goal and provide a unified direction. Without a leader there is going to be chaos and disunity. Now imagine in a family where the wife wants something done her way and the husband wants it done his way. This situation will cause disunity in the family and they will never get things done together. Due to this issue there has to be leadership in the family. It's either the woman becomes the leader or the man becomes the leader, but not both at the same time. By default the position of leadership falls on the man and I believe many women wouldn't like it if they are controlling their men. I believe women like men who can be in charge.

Whenever couples argue about something they must have to settle it for the sake of family unity, and this can be achieved when one person decides to do it the way of the other person. Since family leadership falls on the man by default it means the woman will have to do it the man's way most times to uphold that unity. This is what submission is all about. If you get married with the mindset that you will never submit to a man as the leader of the family then your marriage will be in serious trouble because their will be no unity. It's going to be a power contest always.


If submission likes, let it mean leadership...I still don't care.

At the end of the day everyone will do as they wish.

I am writing this based on some of the comments I read on this forum by males as regards female issues.

The African society focuses on training females more than males. They teach girls how to be good wives and mothers and they forget to train our boys on how to be good husbands and fathers.


I believe the average Nigerian man (some) are insecure, have low self esteem and lack self confidence hence why they derive pleasure in insulting women. Sometimes I wonder who raised these boys that they believe their manhood is validated by a woman subjecting herself to him and allowing him be the alpha and omega of her life. That is why a lot of them are obsessed with the word "submission", "captain" and "head of the house title".

A man with confidence, high self esteem would not be obsessed in wanting to control a full grown woman in 2019 who basically has the same rights as he does.
It is insecurity, lack of self esteem and self confidence that makes a man feel intimidated by a sucessful and independent woman.It is due to lack of self esteem that they want to feel on top or over a woman.
They believe their gender or sex makes them lord over every woman. They are obsessed with authority, power and do not know how to be leaders.

They feel it is okay to slut shame sucessful women call ladies despicable names and you wonder if these men have sisters or mothers.

They feel it is okay to lord over a full grown adult and that such adult(women) cannot be a partner but a subordinate.

I believe some of these men raised in Nigeria have personal issues that they need to deal with on their own before bringing an unfortunate woman to share in such misery and clean up their mess.

I blame society's double standard that fails to hold men accountable as much as women are held accountable maybe then this self entitlement mentality, the view of women as commodities and superiority complex would be a thing of the past. Our men need exposure and enlightenment. I hope we raise better boys to become good men in the future and not just women alone.

I wish I could like this post a million times.

Firstly, It's not only about the male, most Nigerian females have inferiority complex, they don't believe they can equal or superior to there male peers and secondly about insecurities about female being more successful, it's like an inbuilt thing, we are all insecure to some certain level.. We all want to see ourselves doing better than others...so most people you see acting insecure that a female is doing better than them will act the same way if it were a male doing better than them..

While i may not totally agree with all you say, the rate at which guys derive pleasure from insulting ladies on this forum is annoying and very childish!!

my problem with men like you is not because you stand by women against men... the problem is that you deceive them even more into thinking that they are always right.
we always have over 50% of men protecting women no matter what you think about this forum but these women will fall even harder when the truth about their own fault is kept away.
even on this very thread there are men like you on the side of women, there are some like me who is actually unsentimental about everything, who only wants the truth to be told. check out the topic , check out the op, check the level of insults from women on the thread comments. tell me, have you seen a woman checking her side of the fault to gender differences like you're doing against your own gender?
And to be truthful, if a man were to open this thread , I bet you, before 5 men will comment , 1 would be against the op.......
"men were never and are never the problem to the woman world anywhere. People are the problem to themselves. If one should have a large number of ones own type languishing in a sorry state. The right thing to do is to work on improving your type than fighting directly against your opponent , that's the only way to balance such war/difference"....that's what you're actually doing and that's why it seems we are better. thumbs up bro.

All these baloney are for males like me, who are poor cool sad cool

Women keep saying one thing but doing the opposite.
Women are not seen or treated as commodities.

But it is what they have made themselves.

They have openly kept themselves as objects to be bought by the highest bidder -- applying the law of demand and supply. This hitherto, had been there albeit subtly.



Look at Ned and Regina. Why on earth did Regina leave the young, handsome boyfriend for Ned? Love?

The man bought her. Simple. Like you go to a car stand and buy a benz.
Look
Ubi franklin and his mamas
Iara and Oshiomhole
Davido, WizKids and mamas. Why would chioma stick with Davido for 5 years?

In these 5 years he had imprenated many girls, yet she stayed put. Why? Because of money, fame and affluence.


I admit that there are exceptions like the Jeff Bezoz's wife but it's just few.


So no need playing the victims. Women made themselves commodities. They aren't treated as such but they made themselves so.


At any rate, I won't support the slut shaming of women as seen in this forum. I also understand why men do it. It's survival instinct. Only a few would understand.

Shout out to my nigga franchasng. cool shocked
This is exactly my point.

that phrase " toxic masculinity" is the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my whole life. It is just one of the propaganda in the west which they are using to further weaken their men and turn them to sucklings. Why should the society care whether a man decides to cry in public or hold himself till he gets inside his house? If a woman does not cry or show emotion in difficult situation she is strong but if a man does not show emotion or cry it is toxic masculinity.
The notion that men feel "threatened" by "independent" woman (lol, I'm yet to see an independent woman that is truly independent) is another bullshiit that you women come up with to make yourself feel good that it's the society or men that make you leech. Why should I be bothered that a woman I'm dating is able to buy her own pant and bra or even a car? I'm not telling her to buy me one. Men buy cars everyday and use it to carry their girlfriends and wives with those females feeling entitled to the car but why can't you females too buy cars if you could and drive your male partner without having to remind the broke man that he is broke?


There is no need barking here cos 80% of Nigetran males are intimidated by a successful woman..They either want to run or to be useless leeches...Ironically they claim not to want -liabilites' yet malign successful single ladies.

I remember how i was advised from getting a car as a single girl or even changing the car..All i heard was 'no man will marry you' or 'men will only want to chop your money'

And yes there are independent women in Nigeria even married ones...footing the bills and paying the rents!!
