Many of you guys would say Nigerian Women are useless. How many of you guys would husband a woman who aspire to be as great as Okonjo Iweala, Folorunsho Alakija? How many of you doesn't mind having a wife who is richer and influential than you are? Well, me don't mind seeing my woman greater than I am. Her breakthroughs would only multiply my desire to be greater.

As for me, I have decided to shun marriage. Even if I have to get married in the future, she must be a woman capable of challenging me. What I mean by challenge here isn't the woman who quarrel me, I mean the woman who have a lot to bring on the table. A woman I can gain from intellectually, spiritually, emotionally and of course physically. She must be a woman ready to speak up for other women.

FEMINISM DOESN'T BRING AN END TO THE THOUSAND YEARS REIGN OF MEN IN THE SOCIETY. FEMINISM IS CREATING A FUTURE OF FREEDOM FOR BOTH GENDERS TO GO AHEAD AND FULFILL THEIR GREATEST POTENTIALS.

My Advice to Our Ladies Out There:
Seek to be independent in all ramifications. Financial, emotional, spiritual, physical independence etc.

Choose to be the best you can be with track records, don't choose to be a hoe.


HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY.
Not all women can be like Ngozi. Being a companion and helper suffices for some, but still yet be the best you can be...except for hoeing.

Summary of the story - How your dad treats your mother has made you devoid of love/affection for the male gender.

You have to option (1) To cling to your past (2) Move past your experience, believing unlike your mother’s experience you are worthy of true and true love would definitely find you.

If you choose (1) a life devoid of love, trust me you won’t find happiness or fulfillment no matter how much wealth or prestige you accumulate. We humans were made to be loved. You deserve to be loved.

Why does the Nigerian Feminism always originated from a place of insufficiency, abandonment and lack of love. It is really scary
Don't get it twisted. I am a man, not a female.

The Institution of marriage cannot be understood by man,it only takes a man and a woman who is deeply and inter twinned with the Holyspirit to understand marriage
Till The world ends an ordinary man would fail at marriage
The man cannot do without a woman,he is useless,the woman is his life support, the woman is his multiplier,the woman is help meet,his stupidly incomplete without her

Marriage can never b understood by an ordinary man
Go spiritual to understand it

Women these days don't want to be independent, they want to continue chopping their man's money and getting pampered while she does nothing.

When the man doesn't have again she moves on to the next one
Re: My Dad's Treatment Of My Mum Made Me A Feminist by Splitmind: 2:12pm On Mar 08, 2021
Men love successful women but women will be screaming that a man who can't provide this and that luxury isn't a real man.

When a man falls on hard times what goes through their heads is how to dump him and find a "real man". Even when women earn more they will always be disturbed about their partner earning less than them.

Ideology can not simply root out deep seeded hypergamy.

Don't let your scorned mother's experience put you off men.

Learn from her experience and weed out narcissistic, uncaring men.

By the way, a woman accumulating all these academic, financial assets and achievements is MASCULINE energy.

There can only be one masculine energy and one feminine energy in a relationship. If there are two masculine energies in a relationship, you're both going to be fighting for the throne.


A relationship between a woman more successful than a man can work, but men avoid those women cos of the attitude that comes with those women.

Mikester:
[color=navy]So many modern women have nothing interesting to say. All they want to do is to exploit their sexuality for material or societal gain. They do not create anything of objective value.

This is the sad thing about women's rights.
You cannot out of kindness, fairness and modern thinking grant them a few liberties, preserve society and be done with it. Oh no. Once the foot's in the door, it never ends. They will push for more until the universe itself explodes.

It starts with "we want freely available access to birth control and the right to work, and choose who we marry"

And it ends with frivolous divorce, broken homes, widespread misandry, feminine sons, masculine daughters and the complete demonisation of any & all things masculine. What gain have Feminism brought so far even to the women it claims to help?

Patriarchy nurtures women, emancipation harms them. No protection. No provision. Stressful careers and decision making. No guidance. Insecurity. Mental damage from promiscuity. A string of regrets. Women are family creatures. Hyper individualistic autonomy is damaging for them.

Patriarchy is nurturing and protective. The backbone of civilization. No advanced society can survive without it.

Furthermore, paternalism is God's love in man.
You have daddy issues when you didn't receive enough paternal love. It's that simple. Independence isn't the answer to that, no matter how much you brand it as freedom or liberty and turn to degeneracy to cope. None of that will save you.

If you understand the need for equality, then you’re a feminist. It’s really that simple. Feminism is nothing more than that.

Y’all stop falling for the mis-definition and gaslighting that misogynists apply in making you malign feminism. It’s simply about equality and nothing more.

ibuildstuff:
Reading ur story I just felt like we have same parents. How ur dad treated ur mom is exactly how my dad treated my mom. I get so furious and angry with him at times. His actions n inactions affected me n my sister life. But we know better now.

I think is common with the older generation men but alot of us new generation are learning, there's no way I could treat a woman the way my dad treated my mom.

I'm not even a feminist but I understand the need for equality amoung men n women. So I do my best in my own little way I can.
Re: My Dad's Treatment Of My Mum Made Me A Feminist by cococandy(f): 3:44pm On Mar 08, 2021
Why don’t you raise your kids then? If they really come first to you.
They come first but you’re putting the sole responsibility on someone else. How’s that?

Yes the women you’re talking about are feminists. If they weren’t, they wouldn’t feel free to plan a life and career of their own. Feminism gives them that choice. To do what they wish with their lives. It’s simple

Wouldn't it be great if the individual above felt the same way about himself spending quality time with his own kids? But I must admit that he must value the qualities in his wife so much that they must more than make up for his own deficiencies which he wisely choses not to impart on his kids, which is commendable of him.

I wonder if perhaps more kids will be better off if more fathers think as he does. Or perhaps more fathers should improve themselves so their kids benefit from the time they spend with fathers.
