according to scientist, the earth is almost 4.543 billion years old, if we have to follow the simple logic of Lindy effect it means the earth will survive another 4.543 years, so i dont see why you should be afraid or worried about thinggs that havent occurred and will never be

just because Nigerian women are online doesnt mean they will follow feminism, when young it is easy to follow trending waves of whatever stuff is trending but as reality sets, they leave those stuff and go with reality.

No nigerian lawmaker is going to put any feminist law into our laws,Nigeria is too complex and religious for that to happen so dont be worried

Most Nigerians are conservative and are either muslim, christian or traditional worshippers, so putting laws that support feminist agenda or western ideas can become a disaster for the nation

Power comes by votes, longs as women control reproduction, they control that power which is why the world need an artificial womb which is presently in development. Back to votes, the Feminist convince enough people to kill more children before their born then they will control power, since they can vote anything out or in which usually will be a female cabinet. They will also need solders which is why the male population will still exist, this men will be slaves in services of the militery to defend the women from external treats or internal threats,. Since the women are in power, they will control the media, brainwashing as usual. They will make the militery look cool and since their are already more women now, the militery men, police, firefighter will have too much sex going around for them with sum crumb change from mama government which will make it look like dying in war or in disaster in service of women is the live. This men will turn and be like a dog on a leash ready to attack other men who resist on commend. Its already helping in the us. (Simps and whitenights) so the men that resist will be shame and ofcus the womans ultimate punishment(Hehe) no pussy for u, you refused to get inline. If women kill of all the men the traditional values will die with them. The foreign countries will support this, they are supporting it, it is happening. is not a 10yr plan its will take 200 years but or more but it will happen. That's why feminists say the future is female. Why don't u see this?

13 year olds are still being married off in Nigeria
Divorce dad's are paying 5k/ month as upkeep
Lawyers engaged for divorce are sabotaging cases
Less than 20 rape cases have been prosecuted in nigeria
A man can sieze children from his estranged wife, and it happens all the time

The patriarchy is alive and well in Nigeria, and ably supported by women. Women will shame their unmarried sisters. Women will flaunt their rings in pictures. Women will advocate for other women to take shit for the Mrs title.

Nigerian men are not at any risk whatsoever. These are just beta males reading and getting scared. This nonsense being posted is like saying we will soon have electric cars or 24/7 electricity.

I read lots of books though like that satanist Bible by Anton LaVey, I guess u wouldn't go close to that. But it will interest you to know that femenism is another form of devil worship. In satanic lunges, they put a naked woman on a thrown and worship her. Satinism is all about doing what ever your want and the let anybody stop you? Sound familiar? That chamada girl wen and rebel in a catholic church. Cus they couldn't let her dress half naked to church.
Anyways cool man. No matter wat I say, I ll just keep sounding like all those things you mention above.

I gave up tackling them(misogynts) on NL...I gave up because it brought out the worst of me (rudeness)... They are a sorry bunch.

Actually my post intended to state that they are some feminists online that are beyond the objective of equal rights..some want masculinity ousted by all means.

Thumbs up @ the boldfaced.

Good to know there is a reasonable feminist on NL.

Funny though that that is the creed for proponents of feminism these days - the antagonism and possible undecided subjugation of men.

Now, why are you sharing my comments madam? undecided How are you today?

Thanks for your response.

I asked because so many times, I've heard women, feminist especially put forth that men should be free to express emotions, to cry, and just let it out which in itself, is nothing wrong, albeit, reality has thought me that men expressing emotion in most cases is counterproductive. It's an instant attraction killer to most women. The exception I know is if he expresses emotions for strong issues after being known to be stoic and tough.

Women love stoicism, it is a necessary trait a man should have to make her feel secure. A man that explodes emotionally with any difficulty will make her feel unsafe and have a long term domino effect for her to fall out of love, or not fall in love in the first place. Before my preteens, I know for sure that I felt unsafe if my dad expresses weakness or fear (e.g not going outside in the middle of the night to fetch my school uniform and dry inside because its started to rain). Also, women by nature have an elevated perception of fear, so a stoic man is far more attractive than an emotionally expressive man.

In the light of the foregoing, its predicate that there is a disconnect between what women say they want, and what they respond to. For example, if men express their feelings and difficulties they are passing through, they are silenced with tags such as "man up", weak, cry baby, man child etc. Its clear that you just cant believe when men are told to express their feelings, and so far, men have learnt not to be emotionally expressive.

Sure, there may be women out there that have no problem with a crying man, but it's always better to stick to the model that works, and has survived the test of time. Stoicism is bae.



Yea you are right but not all females. Females in their 30s or ladies that have had several heartbreaks and experiences in love will values beta males.Have you heard this saying "alpha males hand over the ladies to beta males for marriage".

When it deals with attraction ladies love stoic males but for marriage beta males(SIMPs,white knights,manginas et AL) are preferred because their commitment is secured and they can be manipulated easily.
Beta males can take anybody for a wife and will go out of his way to please/impress,so they are valued for life long commitment...

Not true.

This is what they said about the Western culture, which was extremely more conservative than the African culture.

With internet, social media and migration, it’s very impossible for young women/men to see the rights that other women/men from other cultures enjoy and not want a part of it. Nigerian social media/blogs have already changed the conversation about domestic violence, The Supreme court is striking out custom laws about female inheritance, an individual took the government and won, to allow married women get new or renew their passports without their husband’s approval. Some states are signing into law more progressive laws. Nigerian women are starting to question if divorce is an option or not, some Nigerian dads are becoming more hands on with childcare.

The progress is very slow, but it will come wether Nigeria likes it or not, it might not be sweeping like the West’s. Even strict Islamic countries have reformed some conservative laws after conversations on social media by their citizens based abroad. These conversations on Twitter, Instagram etc starts the progressive train. Some of these people will get into politics. You don’t have to identify as a feminist to know that there are some laws that are unfair to women, men & children, many Nigerians would get behind such laws even though they aren’t feminists.

The conversation we’re having now, the West started in the 50s and it took them 4 decades (90s) to achieve what they have now and they are still fighting.

The fact is there are even feminist that don't know they are. The fact you want justice and equity for humans especially those that are disadvantaged(women in most cases) makes you one.

first and foremost, western feminism started in 19th century not in the 50s.

i think you fail to realise that twitter, facebook or blogs isnt the total opinion of Nigerians, How many Nigerian are on these platform you mention, few.

if we are to do an offline public opinion survey i am sure that 90% of Nigerians do not know about feminism.

Nigeria social media didnt change anything about domestic violence, domestic violence still exist, to enlighten you domestic violence isnt only about husband to wives but also violence by wives to housemaids or houseboys, wives to wives incase of polygamous families

the reformed customs law done by the supreme court was with the igbo customary laws, other cultures in Nigeria, even in sharia laws allow female inheritance.

Under the Sharia law, women can acquire and retain their own property. They can pass it on to their heirs, inherit from their deceased parents, husbands, brothers, sisters, daughters and other relations.

Under the personal law code of Sharia, a female share of inheritance is half as much as the male heirs. A widow, has the right to one-quarter of the estate if her deceased husband has no heirs. if there are heirs, she is entitled to one-eighth of her deceased husband’s property.

divorce is legal in Nigeria already so it is up to the female if they wanna stay in their marriage or not, the reality is that many women cant go for divorce because they got no means of income.

pls read Nigerian laws and criminal codes very well, it protect women very well, most people just spread misinformation on twitter that our laws are against women. many of them are clout chasing.

pls i will you to mention laws in Nigeria that are unfair to women, men and children??

the reality is this Nigerian women arent western women, many are poor to think about feminism, people need survival first before they can think about things like feminism.

Nigeria is a very complex society for feminist agenda to become law even if a so called feminist believer becomes a Nigerian politician, it is hard to put feminist laws because they know they will lose support base, Nigeria isnt the west, we have our own tradition, culture and way of life, i can tell you it is difficult to destroy customs even colonisation couldnt destroy many of our cultures talkless of feminism which always has a bad rep for violence and aggressiveness.

justice and equity for humans arent feminism value but theory of fairness , it normal for humans to want justice and equity for all...just because i want justice and equity for all doesnt make a person a feminist.

you and pansophist are living in a fantasy world, many of you have never practise stocism or met one, sometimes i believe you guys just write about stoicism to feel cool and sound intelligent. for realistic people stocism is one of the most difficult philosophy to practise in the real world, it is almost like living in a monastery.

i guess the type of men that dont show emotions are robots men, so you mean so called stoic men do not marry ?or stoic men do not value long time commitment with a female?. i believe you do not understand what stoicism is all about. one of the principle of stoicims is duty, duty to family, taking responsibility, i think you are confusing being a player with stoicism, stocism detest all act of being a player. being a stoic is all about having a high standard of morality.

being stoic doesnt mean you cant show emotions, emotions is part of human behavior, it is natural, a man living without emotions will get depressed and commit suicide, that is facts, just because a man doesnt cry in your front doesnt mean he doesnt cry in private.

sometimes, i wish some of you that writes things down can relate them to real life and test if some of your fancy ideas works.

Where did I say that Western feminism started in the 50s? You said Nigeria will continue to be conservative, I disagreed. After the suffragettes, the wave that changed the West into the progressive culture it is, started in the 50s. Sexual revolution, Roe V. Wade, Divorce law reformation ( the law you guys hate) , Workplace discrimination laws etc the agitation and the eventual signing of these laws took four decades. Feminism started in Nigeria in the 40s but Nigerians like their Western feminists in the 50s are just starting to agitate for progressive laws.

Okay let’s use 1920s, so it took a very conservative Western society 70 years to be this progressive. So, Nigeria still has time, we’re on track.

I didn’t say there was no longer domestic violence in Nigeria, I said the conversation has changed. There is more awareness now and such change leads to reformations. That we’re having this back and forth is a change.

Social media made possible the change of some laws in some conservative islamic countries where the internet is banned or censored.

This is the internet age, Nigeria will have no choice.

You people that are always in denial about laws or lack thereof that affect women and children in Nigeria as if you live on Mars.

1. No laws to guarantee education for a child (I.e there should be a deterrent, like possible jail term for a parent that refuses to send their children to school)
2. No child labor laws.
3. No workplace discrimination laws ( an employer can get away with not giving you a job because of your tribe, gender, religion or age) this law will benefit men and women.
4. No workplace sexual harassment law - the boss and the company can get away with firing you for reporting your boss for sexual harassment or get fired for rejecting your boss’s advances. ETC

What is a feminist law? Are the laws above feminist laws? Do you need to be a feminist to agree that children should be in school and not be hawking in harsh conditions? Should a woman be fired because she refused to be Oga’s food?

you will like to point out where I implied stoics aren't family oriented or they are not committed.
Do you think withholding emotions is the same with witholding love? John wick portrayed a stoic personality and he loved his wife even after her demise. Emotions here isn't love but fear,anger,jealousy et al. Bottling them up most times and handling issues yourself...

i think you fail to realise that Nigeria isnt the west, Nigeria will still be a conservative country even in 100 years and laws will still not be changed..laws are hard to change that is reality, it need the support of all senators from different regions of nigeria to support a law

where in the Islamic world did social media had an effect or change the laws, i am sure you must be talking about saudi arabia, just because women are driving doesnt mean they have equal rights with men, actually saudi women have been driving in the rurals areas for long until recently when they were allowed to drive in city centers. this plan to allow women to drive have been in motion before any social media activism, social media is censored and monitored in many islamic countries

there are laws that guarantee education of a child and laws against child labour pls check the Child Rights Act which was implemented in 2017

The constitution of Nigeria prohibits discrimination on the grounds of place of origin, sex, religion, status, ethnic or linguistic association or ties.

under crinimal code act, there is a law against sexual harrasment

Any person who sexually harasses another is guilty of a felony and is liable to imprisonment for three (3) years.
(2) Sexual harassment is unwelcome sexual advances, request for sexual favours, and other visual, verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature which when submitted to or rejected –
(a) Implicitly or explicitly affects a person’s employment or educational opportunity or unreasonable interferes with the person’s work or educational performance
(b) Implicitly or explicitly suggests that submission to or rejection of the conduct will be a factor in academic or employment decisions or
(c) Creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive learning or working environment

the problem here is do people report or just go their way?

i didnt write feminist laws but laws that support feminist agendas that can destroy family and societal values

Michellekabod2:
you will like to point out where I implied stoics aren't family oriented or they are not committed.
Do you think withholding emotions is the same with witholding love? John wick portrayed a stoic personality and he loved his wife even after her demise. Emotions here isn't love but fear,anger,jealousy et al. Bottling them up most times and handling issues yourself...
I wish you comprehend a comment before offering a rebuttal

i think you the one that need to comprehend whtat you wrote down.

you wrote that

"alpha males hand over the ladies to beta males for marriage", you basically equate alphamales with being stoic and a player a man noot needing commitment with women,
futhermore you wrote that

When it deals with attraction ladies love stoic males but for marriage beta males(SIMPs,white knights,manginas et AL) are preferred because their commitment is secured and they can be manipulated easily. you also equated stoic males with being the player, the badboy, the alpha male

what do you imply here? you basically wrote that ladies are attracted to stoic males but for marriage they prefer beta males, basically in common sense, you meant beta males are only for marriages while stoic men are basically like the bad boys

so you used john wick a fictional character as a role model for stoicism..lol, if he was stoic he wont go for revenge simple as abc. he allowed his emotions take over him.

as i have said you basically want a robot as a partner, i have never seen a man that doesnt fear, get angry or get jealous, that is part of being human

i think you dont understand stoicism....stoicism is hard to achieve. there is nothing like a man that doesnt show emotions except maybe that man is emotionless then that is a killer, a man that doesnt know good from bad.

where in the Islamic world did social media had an effect or change the laws, i am sure you must be talking about saudi arabia, just because women are driving doesnt mean they have equal rights with men, actually saudi women have been driving in the rurals areas for long until recently when they were allowed to drive in city centers. this plan to allow women to drive have been in motion before any social media activism, social media is censored and monitored in many islamic countries

That’s my point even in countries where SM is banned and censored, yet an outcry on SM caused by a viral moment can influence laws in countries. In Iran, the viral picture and news of a woman that set herself on fire after being caught and arrested for trying to sneak into a stadium. FIFA was also dragged to oblivion.

Saudi Arabia women were ONLY allowed to drive in their compounds not on major/public roads. The co-founder of ‘women to drive’, a US resident, in 2008 started posting videos of women driving, these videos became viral. There were numerous campaigns and online petition on Facebook, Twitter etc. There was a planned boycott of car companies who supply cars to SA. Then in 2011, a Saudi woman filmed herself driving on the streets of Saudi, her subsequent arrest made the ‘women to drive’ campaign more viral.

Obviously these are very small changes and it doesn’t mean there is now gender equality in Sharia countries. Small changes lead to reforms.

Misleading

The Child Rights Act 2003 does not have any effect if states don’t implement it (the constitution gave only states the right, it’s voided anywhere else) Only 16 states have written the law and none are enforced. In Nigeria right now there are no child labor laws. The law that comes close is in the Labour act whose jurisdiction only covers manual and clerical workers.
lilwetdick:

Ditto above. This law is also non justiciable. There is no legal recourse for Nigerians that experience employment discrimination.

Obviously there is a criminal penalty for a proven sexual harassment. I was referring to workplace sexual harassment where most are civil cases.

You’re right! even though there is no federal law, National industrial court was created for employment related civil cases one of which is workplace sexual harassment and they have actually settled sexual harassment cases, just read two cases that went in favor of the plaintiff!

Lawmakers are trying to pass a bill for sexual harassment in schools, churches etc influenced by conversations that started after a viral moment.

Is this topic still running?

Many Nigerian boys are just confused children.

They dont want feminists, they want a woman who regards them as superior but at the same time they dont want to marry a jobless woman because they want a wife who is co provider. You want a woman who you can lord it over and at the same time she provides for you and feeds you.

Stupid users. grin

Just look at this thread where a woman said her mother was trying to help her choose a spouse who can provide, many idiotic males rushed in to start calling the lady a gold digger.
https://www.nairaland.com/5074399/mother-doesnt-want-me-marry#76582613

Any non feminists reading this thread should bear that in mind as they get married, you will be expected to play traditional role of submissive obedient wife and still feed your husband as co provider.

Just Think of all the Ls you are going to take grin

Your husband will charge home at the end of the day and demand you serve him food you bought part of with your money, in a house you both pay rent for and then put his feet up on a table you probably bought or contributed to buying. He dumps his butt on the chair you probably bought or contributed to buying and starts watching dstv/gotv you payed part of the subscription for and while you are in kitchen sweating and trying to put the food together, you are also watching over the kids that bear his name and technically belong to his family all the while he is relaxing and watching his favourite TV channel while you are putting his food together after you BOTH return from work.

What a worthless life of being used and taking losses left and right.

If I say many Nigerian men are selfish users they will call me man hater.

The only state really pushing for womens rights is Lagos. Laws do not mean anything if they are not enforced.there is a law against homosexuals, so how many have actually been arrested and jailed for 14 years? Even in this same Lagos, several laws are not really enforced.chikd trading is against the law. All the laws do not mean anything if the CULTURE does not change. And culture will not change quickly if it is not fought for. How many women are active agitating for womens rights? You remember the law student who caused a commotion over wearing hijab as a law student? That's how you start the conversation and the change.today muslim law students can wear hijab. Female lawyers cannot wear trousers.until a lady openly agitates, this will continue

Most people worry about global warming , pollution war. You are bothering yourself with arcane things like feminism
Am starting to think you are a Muslim
Islam is right about women thou.
U seem very convenient and you don't see feminism been a threat becouse of your perception and interaction. You are so comfortable in it.
Yep tried studieing about global warming, I went to my village and planted lots of oranges, coconuts and palm cus if its not those ppl will think its a useless tree and cut it down for foreword. Still cheaking up on them till date, I also invited my frnds and family to do the same. Hehe told them its a good business instead so that they will do it. Imagine if you did and everybody here did the same. U know? The non fools.
War is coming. But this is good in a way cus we need a restart, more reason I don't want to bring a kid to a world that is at the brick of war.
About pollution, I try as much as possible to use my car only when its necessary. I like walking more, it keeps me healthy and in shape,
so in my own way am doing something about it, are you?
Women have everything, rights to votes, education, jobs, equal pay,
Their are dishwashers
Laundry marts
Cleaning bots(they clean ties and carpets)
You can literally order anything you want through the internet and eat full.
There are no women chores anymore.
So? You noticed how all Feminists have a nasty attitude. They want that attitude accepted. they want to shit in your face why you keep your mouth wide open.

Yea you are right but not all females. Females in their 30s or ladies that have had several heartbreaks and experiences in love will values beta males.Have you heard this saying "alpha males hand over the ladies to beta males for marriage".

When it deals with attraction ladies love stoic males but for marriage beta males(SIMPs,white knights,manginas et AL) are preferred because their commitment is secured and they can be manipulated easily.
Beta males can take anybody for a wife and will go out of his way to please/impress,so they are valued for life long commitment...

Ladies over 30 and plus love those,
They shit in their face and they just open their mouth wide open. They will be like sorry baby, give me more shit. Feminist love shitting on those cus feminists got pussy too. Thirsty niggah brain is just one giant pussy compass

Oh God this again. Lady you have the right to vote, education, job, equal pay, you have more rights than men.
Their are Dishwashers
Their are floor cleaning robots
Their is a thing called the laundry machine and laundry marts
Their is an all smiling willing lady called the Nanny
You can literally order plutonium from the internet, so getting a piece of cake is a piece of cake incase i ignore all those family restaurant I drive pass everyday
So stop it with that woman chores thing you have going. Their is no social construct, the reason why their is predator, pray its the reason why the human race is like the way it is, its still the same Law that dictates how everything works in the universe. You play with natural laws, their will be consequences. wait til you have a natural disaster and nobody helps you out cus u know? You don't need men. Hope all Feminists know war is coming. The extremist all over the world, they don't take a break, thy are breading like flies while feminist want men to be puppies. The only value women have is their reproductive capability, it is why they are protected cus nature on default makes it so but u guys don't like the things nature provides for you. Their is that artificial womb in development, once it is done. The only thing to worry about in a war is how to transfer the source code to a secure servers. So don't worry you have less things to complain about soon. And since u hv not noticed. Everybody is already down with feminism its the reason why u can go to school. The problem is that damn Attitude Feminist have. Men hv attitude too but we fight it out. U. U have a nasty attitude but can't take a fight. Wat u do is complain all the damn time. Nothing is satisfying for. You cant even say what you want.
Re: Would You Marry Or Date A Feminist? by LilMissFavvy(f): 9:17pm On Nov 25, 2019
Women are different, this does not apply to all women. There is absolutely nothing weak, or bad about a man who expresses his emotions. A wise woman encourages him at that moment, Pampers him, rather than get turned off. The only thing I am sure can make a lady get turned off is is such emotional outbursts is too often.....like that of a child.
pansophist:

Thanks for your response.

I asked because so many times, I've heard women, feminist especially put forth that men should be free to express emotions, to cry, and just let it out which in itself, is nothing wrong, albeit, reality has thought me that men expressing emotion in most cases is counterproductive. It's an instant attraction killer to most women. The exception I know is if he expresses emotions for strong issues after being known to be stoic and tough.

Women love stoicism, it is a necessary trait a man should have to make her feel secure. A man that explodes emotionally with any difficulty will make her feel unsafe and have a long term domino effect for her to fall out of love, or not fall in love in the first place. Before my preteens, I know for sure that I felt unsafe if my dad expresses weakness or fear (e.g not going outside in the middle of the night to fetch my school uniform and dry inside because its started to rain). Also, women by nature have an elevated perception of fear, so a stoic man is far more attractive than an emotionally expressive man.

In the light of the foregoing, its predicate that there is a disconnect between what women say they want, and what they respond to. For example, if men express their feelings and difficulties they are passing through, they are silenced with tags such as "man up", weak, cry baby, man child etc. Its clear that you just cant believe when men are told to express their feelings, and so far, men have learnt not to be emotionally expressive.

Sure, there may be women out there that have no problem with a crying man, but it's always better to stick to the model that works, and has survived the test of time. Stoicism is bae.
