Family / Re: How Did Our Ladies Turn To Single Parent? by toughchic(f): 3:39pm On Dec 12, 2021
Isn't it so ironically how the responsible parent is the one being bashed.

Single mother? Doesn't the child have a father?

Lemme rephrase this question, why are men so irresponsible that they're so comfortable being mere sperm donors?

It doesn’t matter how u see it...what matters is how those championing it in the fore front see it....

If you don’t know anything about the current wave of feminism...Internet is your friend....I don’t have time type epistles...


I thought as much. Your assertion came from a place of ignorance.

By the way, it isn't how I see it. It is what it is.

The feminism we have now isn’t a fight for equal rights in all areas...It’s favoring women at the expense of men, And women are bringing the ideology into their homes causing problems in already difficult to manage marriages...

That is what the pastors are against..women are our sisters, wives, daughters, cousins. .nobody is after suppressing women...u women are the ones crying foul all the time.




I do not see any feminism favoring women over men. Show me a feminist asking for what she doesn't deserve and I will show you a pseudo-feminist.

It would be best if you point out the ideologies feminists are bringing into their marriages that are causing problems.

And I do not see women crying foul, it's mostly men complaining.

I watched and read many of these religious leaders' commentaries on feminism in marriage and their stance is that feminism stops in marriage.

I stand corrected.

Why can't they think what exactly is bad about feminism well let me state what feminism means to me and why feminism has come to stay in Nigeria and other developing and third world countries.

The Nigerian woman is at a disadvantage,a lot of social issues the average Nigerian woman faces which thanks to Feminism,gender equality,women empowerment and whatever you wanna call it has brought to the fore-front burning issues such as domestic violence,female genital mutilation,sexual harassment and abuse such as rape,gender based violence etc.Why have these people not seen the social causes feminist has brought to the limelight and made advocacy and proferred solutions for,why have these Christian leaders failed to use the church to serve as medium to address the social plight women face in Nigeria angry angry


They have failed to see the political benefit of feminism which ensures the right to vote through women's suffrage,right to vote and be voted,for occupy public offices and hold public opinion.Even Saudi Arabia is realising this and even granted women the right to drive,vote,hold local offices etc.

What about the economic benefits of women,the right to an education,use their expertise to get jobs etc.None of these would have been made possible by feminism.When did women wanting their rights, responsibilities, opportunities, equality, respect, dignity and basically be seen as human beings become a controversial issue in 2021 angry grin

This is what I know feminism to be and stand for as a feminist grin

What you highlighted here is where the problem lies. Many see feminism from this angle and feel it should end here.

But I have taken it upon myself to remind everyone that feminism is a pro-choice and self-liberation movement.

It covers every area of daily life. It's about autonomy too, individualism, self-liberation.

Every human, no matter their gender should make choices for themselves and not be forced into gender roles or stereotypes. And the marriage shouldn't change this.

With feminism, everyone is being liberated from certain things. For example, one who comes from a place where it is deemed abnormal to be covered from head to toe would feel liberated when one can wear whatever they like including clothing that covers all part of their body.
This phenomena is replicated is all other areas.

To answer your question, feminism is constantly on the attack for several reasons which I will outline below.

1. Many of the people who constantly attack feminism do not understand what the movement stands for. They all seem to have an idea but lack in-depth knowledge about it, hence, the constant attack.

2. Patriarchy. Anyone who's against patriarchy is labeled as an enemy of society.

3. I hate to say this, but many women and men in Nigeria do not have the faintest idea of how they have benefited from feminism.

4. It gets messier when marriage comes into the picture. Over the years, women get blamed for everything that goes wrong in their marriage. It's what being replicated in recent times.
Rather than admit that the bullshit women accepted in the past is the reason for marriage longevity, they go the easier route, blaming women. Because every form of insubordination in women is linked to feminism now, they blame feminist women.

Career / Re: Benefits Of Being A Red Cross Member by toughchic(f): 11:40am On Aug 01, 2018
Red o!

Being a member of NRC comes with a lot of benefits including being trained in life-saving skills and disaster management.

Other benefits come with being a humanitarian but it is really about what you seek.

You stand to gain experiences which can help land you a job with the United Nations, NRC, ICRC, and others.

But you should be more concerned about serving humanity, not for benefit purpose.

Cross o!

Other crossers might have more information for you.

Exactly, inability to key into diversification.
Economical gains aside.
We feel at ease, seeing nature get destroyed.

Are you a member of NSEC??


I think I am a member of NSEC and you?

[/b]A lifetime experience Maam, one you can never forget
Back then at Oli camp in Kainji Lake, about a full moon at night beside the Camp's pool gisting with the park rangers, suddenly came a roaring one so loud and so close you had think the sound emanates from a magnificent Woofer, alas it was a magnificent Animal.

It was the first, i was opportunity to hear from a Wild Lion, I and my colleagues almost took to our heels, all to the reassurance of the Rangers that the Lion was far away, we stayed.

Yet the Roars felt like the Lion was so close.

I just don't know why Nigeria cant protect and maximize the opportunities that presents itself in the Tourism Industry just like most East and South African Countries...

We have Enough Floras & Faunas!![b]



I guess since there is still enough wealth to be gotten from Oil, they don't want to invest or fund the tourism industry just yet.

Apart from yankari Game Reserve which is state owned many of our national parks are poorly funded, Kainji Lake National park included.

In fact, there was a time the ministry of environment was making plans to convert these parks for agricultural purposes.

It's a very insightful piece. I am equally a fan of green travel but many of this tips may not work here in Nigeria sha.

How many people are boxed enough to travel for leisure purpose talk more of lodging in a green hotel here in Nigeria

Health / Re: Could She Be Pregnant, Missed Period And Negative PT by toughchic(f): 8:16pm On Dec 07, 2017
Why don't you go to another labouratory, a blood test is always the best for pregnancy. You said a brownish coloured fluid tricked and stopped, that could be spotting which is an early pregnancy sign or a sign of a miscarriage.
