Lol! Yay. You didn't even enter my head! Whoa! *Faints*.
FamilyRe: Men And Women Are Equal! by retro(f): 8:40pm On Jul 19, 2006
I thought you knew because you cited the example. Anyway, you are right.
It wasn't my idea. Diddy used them as an example . . . I was actually wondering who they were. Lol

IAH:
My point here is that a hardworking mother is not automatically or necessarily intelligent.

Now do you agree that you sometimes wash plates, clean, etc. and your mind won't even be there? You would be on a manual work yet your mind is elsewhere. That's not intelligence, intelligence involves the mind. It tasks the mind.

From dictionary, Intelligence "the capacity for thought and reason especially to a high degree."

Being able to scrub the floor, wash, push truck etc. is a manual skill, it involves more of the hands(or legs) and less of the brain. Intelligence (intellectual reasoning) involves the mind and brain. Not that you don't use your brain to wash, clean, push truck but you use very little of it. You can't be said to be intelligent when you are only using little of your brain. I would have loved to tell you how the brain itself works in these things but let's save the story for Jesus. cheesy

Hope I was clear enough? huh
I totally understand you. It's just that, when it becomes a job you do to earn money . . . Oh well, you need to get inside my head in order to understand.

Your point is way more logical and correct than mine.

Kudos *gives flowers* . . . this forum needs more people like you who can explain without getting aggressive.

FamilyRe: Men And Women Are Equal! by retro(f): 8:19pm On Jul 19, 2006
My mom is a hardworking mother, she doesn't work. How does that make her unintelligent?
FamilyRe: Men And Women Are Equal! by retro(f): 8:16pm On Jul 19, 2006
IAH:
No, it's not associated with reading and writing, it's associated with reasoning. When you are pushing a truck you are simply exerting force, energy, work - moving an object from point A to B. Of course, there is the natural intuition/instinct that helps you to know where to move the truck from and to, it does not need any intellectual reasoning.
So instinct is all a truck pusher needs. The higher level is intellectual reasoning. smiley
In short, Brain is different from Power and there's my native proverb that says "Brain is better than Power".
Erm, truck pushers in Nigeria are those who put trash in their trucks and recycle it, right? If I'm right, I'll continue.

Now, how's a hardworking mother not intelligent? That's something I'll love to know.

For ladies who does not understand, its simple lets make guys do the extra work because we are the only ones who can give birth to babies then let them do the house chores, simpleeeeeee
What planet are you from? Because you give birth to babies, men should do the chores? Lmfao. *Slaps head*, COME BACK TO EARTH!
FamilyRe: Men And Women Are Equal! by retro(f): 8:02pm On Jul 19, 2006
I mean, it doesn't have to be general. You can be very intelligent at what you do . . . There are different forms/levels of intelligence. A hardworking woman IS an intelligent woman.

retro, com on, read again and get the gist its so clear anyway , and get on the right side
Wtf? The right side? WHAT SIDE IS THAT? Make babies? Wtf. Can someone please translate this topic in English?
FamilyRe: Men And Women Are Equal! by retro(f): 7:56pm On Jul 19, 2006
IAH:
Diddy was very correct. @Retro, you can't equate being intelligent with being hardworking. They are two different things. Brain is not the same as Power.
You need brains to be a truck pusher. Why is intelligence always associated with reading and writing?
Nairaland GeneralRe: Women! by retro(f): 7:52pm On Jul 19, 2006
