Feminism... Defined by Nobody: 8:03pm On Aug 04, 2019
Hi nairalanders.
After noticing a usual trend here on nairaland, i have observed,
Nigerian men hate, and although do not admit it, fear a feminist. This fear in my humble opinion is borne out of ignorance.

A feminist is a person who believes in equality of the female sex to the male. Feminism means that
a female is as important as a male and is capable of achieving the same goals he can. It believes that a womans ideas can, and do make a difference for the better if properly executed. That a woman can intellecually compete with any male.(eg. More girls passed waec than males :-) )
feminism says
a woman has right, fundamental human rights
a woman can succeed where 10 men fail
a woman is relevant. As much as most males

Wouldnt admit it, this is a males world which limits its female folks. Feminism doesnt mean the female is more powerful. It simply means equality.

for the women.
1.) most influential individuals in the world eg my career mentor, ben carson, was brought up by a single mother. So who says a woman needs a man to survive. Things may be tough but a strong woman will always pull through.

for the man.
1.) a feminist will take my position in the family, as the head.
answer- a feminist believes in equality. Meaning she wants her opinions to matter. But has a companion, a feminist wants your opinions to matter too. A woman gives a man respect not for his sex, but for the fact he deserves it.

No, you don't understand feminism.

Feminism teaches that men decided to subdue and humiliate women. So men are evil.

It teaches that a woman shouldn't be tender and fragile, rather she must leave her feminity and compete with men aggressively even if that will involve losing her feminity.
But no matter how hard they try, nature belies them. In the army women do half the drill of men. In athletics the same is the case.

The fifth-ranked women's side in the world and quarterfinalists at the last three World Cups, the Matildas were beaten 7-0 by the under-15 outfit of A-League team the Newcastle Jets.
https://i.stuff.co.nz/sport/football/world-game/80405759/australian-womens-football-team-thumped-70-by-newcastle-under15-boys-team

teaches that men and women relationship is competition and not complimentary. That women must not accept their roles in the house. They must go and work even if that will mean that the house and children is neglected.


Feminism is the cause of poorly trained children, low population of marriable women and increase in use-and-dump women that are only fit to be screwed, abandoned and added to the list of baby mamas.

You better wiseup before it's too late.

Its the same thing as owning a joint co operation, both patners own equal shares and rights. And when a conflict arises both offer solutions. And the most credible is executed. Thats how a relationship is, a willing togetherness not a master/slave relationship.

In every relationship one must be the head and another be the tail.

I don't understand why women think that obeying their husbands makes them slaves. Does having a president make you a slave in your country? Obviously no.

Just as you strive to choose a leader that will lead you with love and respect so also you should choose a man that will lead the home with love and respect.

It's easy to be a feminist if your father was a monster in the house. But me, my mother was a submissive woman and my father was a responsible man who cared for the family.

My mother cooked our meals, dressed us for school, cleaned the house. My father leaves home before 6am in the morning and strived selflessly to pay the bills of the family.
Imagine if my mother too was doing a 8-4job, I wonder if I would have the training and morals I have today.

No wonder most children today are suffering from moral malnutrition. They have two fathers and no mother.

nothing wrong if she shares her views, but also note that at the end i will like to go with my own views not because her opinion does not make sense but because i am individualist in nature and i believe my views is the plan A.

a president or leader who doesnt listen to the views of his subject is a D.I.C.T.A.T.O.R

KUDOS To your dad. But what if he had lost his job. No woman would be submissive to a jobless, stay at home man, when her children are malnurished or sick. Wouldnt he at that time pray for a helping hand. IT MUSTNT BE A 24/7 JOB. A SHOP FOR HER WOULDNT BE BAD?

Ask yourself this question. Would you date a rich doctor, who pays her bills, earns a good income, respects you(not fear that youre superior)for you.
or date a jobless dependent, naija babe who'll cheat on you when you cant provide her with LUXURY. Who will harrass you when youre without work or a babe who help you back on your feet??

Give me a village girl and I'm happy. That barefoot 17 yr old girl still mesmerized by a laptop is who I want.

I like you VirginDiva. And because of that I'll give you free dating advice:
Don't project. By this i mean don't think what YOU find attractive in a man, men also find attractive in YOu. It doesn't work like that. While a doctor may be your dream as a girl, a boy's dream is different. What men love in women is not what women love in men. No matter how qualified a woman is, that don't impress a man. Cause a man's criteria is DIFFERENT. What we like is opposite from what you like.

While a car and house may impress a woman, a car and house is not what a man wants in a woman. In women Men want youth,fertility and freshness, not diplomas and whatnot. So feminists are destined for failure.

You don't know enough.

First the feminist want to be your equal

Second they seek means to remove men from power

And finally they declare war on men "the Era of men is over"

Feminist don't want equality, they want to dominate men, feminist believe equality only when it favors them.

Like the WAEC example. Girls only perform better because, of the learning environment favor girls. Like following orders and being gentle. And majority of the teachers are women which the girls can relate too. Feminist won't find how they will fix this o.

Ben Carson is only what he's today because he's smart and he have a hard working mother, don't give the mother the credit only.

Feminism is a cancer. It leaves it purpose to fight a cause that is not real or worth it.
thats why i wrote FEAR. You say the ERA OF MEN Who named it so? MEN! Feminist just ask for equality and you guyz get scared, of being pushed away, why. Imagine if things were the other way round

Listen woman, there is nothing like equality. If you believe in equality, then why you and your folks don't protest for female participation in fighting boko haram in borno state because 100% of soldiers fighting boko haram are male. Like wise police force. You can't see female police in check point, female police going for operation, female apprehending suspects. We only see them on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter. "Curviest female police, most beautiful female police, check out this female soldier with curve. Is this the most beautiful female soldier? Check her Instagram page for more pictures".

i know about zodiac, i do not so much believe in it but i noticed that it describes personality of people born in different months semi accurately.

according to your zodiac sign its says that you're creative, fiery, independent and stylish, is this correct about you?

anyway, we cant all have our way in relationship, as i have said earlier, someone has to lead and in most cases it is the man that is the way he can get respect from a woman, it is only when he has become so useless in the relationship then a woman can decide to sail the ship. the reality here is many men in Nigeria are not leaders in their relationship, they have lost the respect or they dont know what it means to lead in a relationship

to be sincere with you, the best relationships are those relationship in which a woman trust her man to lead because she believes he is capable, it always end up well for both couple

What about mental or physical energy. I'd you want to compare take the whole totality. Not only aspects.

A right hand with left hand are both complementary. but what a right hand can endure and accomplish is not the same as what the left can. It's simple truth.

the reality is this, the real so called strong and independent women never get married, they believe they dont need a man in their lives, they believe they can achieve everything without the help of a man, some of them really do achieve what they want whether career wise or educational wise when they wanna get sex from a man they just advertise what they are looking for on social media, they choose men from the pool of Hot men who sent requests, after sex, they show them the way out of the door.
