Exactly, there is no thriving marriage where at least both parties won't submit to each other


Some people just want to be woke and feel among online even if they don't clearly understand the concept of feminism.

All what you listed is the beginning. It is like democracy in Nigeria. After long time of being under the military rule, most Nigerians don't even know their right. It is the same thing with women. After years of conditioning and brainwashing, they still don't under their capability.

No
You want new favorable laws that will give you special privilege in our society

Like femcentric family court laws in Europe

That's their culture and law doesn't triumph culture and moreover the women there are not complaining

We don't need feminism watsover in Nigeria

Every educated Nigerian whether male or female has equal rights under the law
The same culture that once used to accept human sacrifice to cure cholera or the same culture that used to permit the killing of twins ? Culture is not always unbiased and humane .


You are not the one to determine who needs feminism ,it's not your decision to make,last time I checked God never left you or any other male incharge of the decision making of Nigerians.


Feminism is a movement to emacipate the girl child from cultures and beliefs that tend to oppress her.

Pocohantas, good afternoon baby.

The last time I stepped my foot in a church, I was 19. After years I was in church early Jan because my dad had a thanksgiving. Mind you, my dad is the first atheist I know- but the church gladly opened their doors for him, after all, e go do giveaway grin. I didn’t even listen to the gibberish the pastor was preaching, I stepped out and stayed in the car.

I don’t own a bible, I don’t read one, no one reads to me, else I will block you.

I DETEST religious Nigerian men, because they are one of the greatest hypocrites known to womankind.

If christianity can coexist with Nigerian men who commit all sorts of vices, I really can’t see why it shouldn’t coexist with ordinary feminism.

SACI:

Ephesians 5:21 says" submit to each other..." But y'all (Nigeria men especially) seems to be blind to that part so as you can interpret the bible in a way that suit you people

Guys like you who think they are smart always shoot themselves on the foot.

Ephesian that you quote, Paul was addressing the Church from verse 1 to 21.

He started address the home at 22 to the last verse 33.

21. Letting yourselves be ruled by one another in the fear of Christ.

22 Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as of the Lord.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body.

24 And as the church is under Christ's authority, so let wives be under the rule of their husbands in all things.


Read that verse 24 again and again. He says " So let wives be under the rule of their husbands in all things"

IN ALL THINGS !

Bluffly:

Submit to one another does not remove a wife reverencing her husband. Which means degree of submission varies
God didn't say anything about degree.he just said submit to one another but y'all almost always don't see that part because it isn't in accordance with the interpretation you want to push...btw relationship are always enjoyable if both parties are submissive and accountable.

In other words we shouldn't fight for a just country. If nothing changes, you all have nothing to worry about.

Fighting for a just society is different from to give women special privilege without any responsibility just because they are women and because in the past they were systematically oppressed which I don't even believe

It's against ethics and logic

Electricity and good roads are human endeavours. God gave us brain to do all these. If that's what you look out for in God, then you have missed it. Get eternal life first and see how you will be transformed totally.

Y'all should stop using Beyonce as an example whenever you want to make your irrelevant point.

I'm not for gender equality or female supremacy whichever mordern feminist associate with,

I'm guessing you are for gender equality
I am for gender equity. The biological and physical attributes of both gender are different, so that alone means we are all assigned our duties. But what I will not agree on is one gender trying to "tame " the other to suit their needs .

We should stop dragging this issue already.
There are no feminists in Nigeria.
None. Not even one.


Exactly
Many come online to shout feminist, but I don't see such in real life.
They somehow submit to there men

Except maybe those unmarried ones
But which married man will tolerate such in his house.

Married women will always respect themselves cause they no want wahala

Who is a Christian?


Someone who professes Christianity?

Someone who goes to church?

A worker in church?

A minister in church?


Only those who do the will of rhe Father are Christians:

Feminism and religion are mutually exclusive.. The holy books of mainstream religions reek of sexism towards women and male chauvinism!!!!... Feminism at its early stage was reasonable cos all they wanted was EQUAL OPPURTUNITY devoid of stigma and gender bias...but they've strayed from their original objective.. But does that mean the girl child shouldn't be treated fairly and given equal opportunity same as men??.. I stand with equal opportunity but I detest equality of outcome(new form of equality).....being submissive in a relationship should be symbiotic..IMHO.. Respect should be mutual,love shd be mutual, submission shd be mutual!!!
I don't subscribe to the socially constructed gender roles enforced by religion and society!...Emancipate urself from mental slavery!
Re: "You Can't Be A Feminist And A Christian" - Reno Omokri by WoundedLamb: 3:13pm On Jan 15, 2021
Well, in that case, you can't be going to church and still be a Christian cause the bible says women shouldn't even do as much as ask questions in the church while today's churches now endorse female pastors.

LongNipple:
Lets leave Christianity out if this....

I feel it all boils down to the women and their values.
A woman can decide to be a feminist and still submit to her husband if she still values marriage. But if she shouldn't, it would be best such a woman doesnt live under a man because it's going to be war.

In this case, if she wants to be married and stay married, she should keep her feminism in her Father's house before entering her Husbands house.


Exactly same thing I was saying
No man will tolerate such in his home

That's a lie

Women have always been working

It's just a radical set of women that wanted women to b equal to men in every area of life which is idiotic and foolish by the ways.

Women have always been the homecarers and caregivers of the society. Their job was to b give birth and nurture the home


And moreover gender wage gap is a myth
A myth? then the gender segregation thing is a myth cooked up by testosterone oozing creatures who feel threatened .
