Oh, so all those touts, robbers, fraudsters and every other criminal element was not beaten as a child, right?

The vast majority yes. The rod of correction would have put them on the straight and narrow.

And every successful person was beaten senseless apparently, necause treating your kids like goats makes so much sense

Seeing how you have included "beaten senseless" into the matter That's a strawman right there. People usually do it when they are clutching onto things. Desperation

The things you guys put your kids through....I wonder uf you love them at all

The child you love is the one that you correct. It's a sign of love.

You destroy their sense of self-worth, turn them to your lifeling slaves and retirement plans, don't care if they're happy so long as you get "respect"

So much bullcrap in one sentence.

The west you're so disdainful of keeps churning out trailblazers in science, research, education, law, business and pretty much everything good you use. You guys are here beating kids and demanding respect upandan, producing employees for the same west and internet fraudsters. Why hasn't your flogging created Google or Apple or Microsoft?

Where did I say I was "disdainful" of the West. You dey learn English
Is it because they don't beat their kids that they invented those things Na wa o
"Post hoc ergo propter hoc" fallacy is what you are committing here. You that was not beaten, where is your own Google, Apple or Microsoft

You clearly have an issue with feminism. That is not my business.

Thank you for the correction.

Everyone should.
You are welcome.

Spot on! And I'm trying to make these ones see why that cycle needs to be broken but no. They want to do the same thing so they can take out their frustrations from they were raised on their own kids.

Bla bla bla...

I recently asked why people always say stuff like "I appreciate the beating my parents gave me. It made me a better person" but never say "I appreciate the beating I got from my maths teacher. It made me a better student".

"Spare the rod and spoil the child" -- Bible
This is ancient wisdom. Tested and trusted. The rod is an always effective method of straightening an errant child.

Everyone wants to absolve their larents of any toxic behaviour. However, the suppresed resentment is still there and they end up taking out on their kids. It's the reason why if you ask the average Nigerian youth how they intend to tackle any issues their child may have, beatings are always in the top three.

Which yeye resentment. What are some of these issues that you think the rod cannot correct and what other ways do you think will be more effective?

As for the last line, I've said that severally . We don't know the full story. But Nairalanders as always just want to be pressed and are looking for another reason to bash feminism so they've adjudged her guilty even though they don't know the full story.

Feminism is crap. Feminists are mostly dumb wannabes. I am willing to press the issue with you if you possess the heft. I know you don't.
Your move dude.


PS: The word "severally" is misused in that sentence.
Check your dictionary and thank me later.

First off; Nigerians and culture? Hah! What culture and who that culture epp? Let the culture develop the country na. Let me tell you, part of the reason Nigeria is not developing is because of that same culture

People like you always think it is proper to denigrate your values you want to sound modern. The world does not end in the West. Take Japan for example, it's a country steeped in culture, respect for elders being a strong part of it. Has it stopped Japan from developing??

Today, you guys are screaming "#NotTooYoungToRun", forgetting that it's the mentality that only elderly people are wise or smart enough to be leaders that has brought us to the point where those elderly people don't want to leave leadership positions, always claiming that "the youth are not ready". All this inspite of the fact that younger and younger people have taken up leadership positions in developed countries and have performed as good as and sometimes better than their elderly counterparts

Can you demonstrate this with examples, or are you just yapping as usual? I know you can't. Na just talk. You want to sound enlightened.

But no, keep with the culture that says nobody has a voice till they're like 50.

Which part of our culture says this? Pulling out things from your ass abi?

Also, respect and asking elders to help with tasks are not mutually exclusive. It's only emotionally insecure people that think they are

They are. Asking your father to do the dishes is disrespectful anyway you try to analyse it. Western values are not always right. Apart from the West, mention one other place on the planet where this would be permissible. I'm not holding my breath. I know say you no fit.

Edit: I only just saw what you said about male children. Are you for real? Male kids should only wash dishes if they are the younger child not older? No wonder Nigerian men feel so entitled! Every single one of my kids would do dishes on a roster. All of them will learn how to take care of the house and thenselves. I will join in too, so they learn that being the father doesn't exempt you from household responsibilities. All of these I learnt from my dad. My dad could just be passing through the kitchen and would see a dish in the sink. He would wash it - despite it not being his, then call whoever left it and instruct them to wash their dishes after use. Till date, I wash my own dishes. He still does it too, whether we are at home or not. So again, what is the big deal? If my dad could do it, why can't I?

Some men by their nature love the kitchen. Your father was not compelled. And I'm pretty certain this dish washing was not an everyday occurrence. Wetin una go dey do if him dey wash plate

Oyinbo wannabe

Shhhiiiiiiooooorrrrr

You guys are disappointing me with your insults. This can't be your worst. Dig deep, you'll find something better.

Okay I go answer you. I dey come.

LilMissFavvy:
Oh yeahhhh.... Say that again, you son of a GUN, the Feminist word brings out the coward in you, you are scared some women know they got brains to match their male counterparts, deal with it, or better kill yourself. You may be surprised, but I know who you are. >: , I don't chat with your kind.

Bla bla bla...

You are dull, worse still you can't even figure it out. Go back to the part of your comment I highlighted.
Meditate on it Your foolishness will eventually dawn on you... Or not

Either way, I don't care. I have used up my idiot quota for the day.
Bye.

Who cares? Stupidass.....I don't chat with everyone, get off my mentions.

LilMissFavvy:
Who told you nobody is against equal opportunity? Have we ever had any government that supports equal opportunities for women taking leadership positions in Nigeria? Your president gives Nigerian women 20percent of leadership positions. They said it's 30percent but it's of cuz mere talks. That is enough evidence that men don't even want women to have equal rights and opportunities Concerning the new wave of feminism, I had told you that I am not aware of any new feminism, that if there is a new feminism, then maybe something must have triggered it.

Dumbass!

Disgusting.

I dey shame for this comment.

So your papa go wash plate

This has nothing to do with feminism. This is purely a bad attitude displayed by a spoilt child. She must have got spoilt after relocating to live abroad. Feminism does not encourage females to be disobedient to their parents.

You want to deny her now abi Feminists are not loyal.

Tueh.

Tell them to swear by Otumokpo before employing them. Problem solved!

LoJ:
I actually get his point, but he fail(ed) to get mine. He is talking from the economic perspective of scarcity. In economic terms, scarcity describe the fact that all (economic) resources (Human, natural or capital) are limited and therefore societies have to make choices as pertain to their allocation. The said allocation of resources in sometimes pictured with a curve we call the Product possibility curve, whose frontiers describe those limits.

This is likely what he was trying to hint at. What he failed to understand is that, i was referring to the mother of all resources, sometimes called aether, and which is unlimited.

What is the aether? Is it space? What in your opinion is the easiest way to access it?

Stewart Downing is still at Boro??

Damn.

Gather your thoughts and return with something more cohesive rather than those bellicose utterances. I will wait.

You go wait, wait, wait, ehhh, you go wait tire.

crackhaus:
Firstly, what I think about this is that you're contradicting yourself a lot without even realizing it.

You have made the choice of going against societal norms by not wanting kids, yet somehow you still want a wife which in itself is very much a societal norm.

You're yet to see compelling reasons why you should have kids, but somehow you stated the following reasons as to why you need a wife:

News flash: These are not compelling reasons.
You can do all that and not be married to her.

You made mention of Oprah in a comment above as an example of someone who doesn't have kids. Well hello, she's also not married. Get my point yet?

If you're intent on rebelling against societal expectations, go all out and do that. Picking and choosing is a tad bit hypocritical and counter intuitive.



Your second question about how to find a single woman who has never had kids and is willing to be married without bearing any children from that marriage?
Well, good luck with that.

But allow me offer a tip to make it easier - look specifically for girls with fertility issues that medically prevents them from becoming mothers, or look for divorced women with kid(s) from a previous marriage and no intention of having any more.
The latter option though, will make you a step father, but at least the kid(s) won't bear your name and you can instruct them not to take care of you when you're old since you dont need the help.

Cheers.

Sense pass sense. You try jare

solmusdesigns:



There is this believe that your kids are like a passport for your rebirth or your re-incarnation,, this is why Monarchs and royal houses literarily screens their bloodline, even Adam to Abraham down to Jesus are same bloodline, Prophet Muhammed is also Abraham's Bloodline.

In this simple view i think child bearing and nurturing is important to preserve your DNA for re-entrance of your soul back to the living world from the spirit world. This is why some Europeans create wealth and conglomerate lasting multiple Generation so as to come back to this world and enjoy part of thier labour.
