The way you subtly shaded and praised the igbos here is legendary. I don't know whether to like or unlike this your post.

IgboSomalia:
Your moniker says a lot. I hope you find closure, healing and happiness.

Ordinary 27 years old terrorizing the family and I am sure it is the man who is her main victim.

Witches and wizards brought from the village to enjoy good life in USA will turn on their husband and family just to gain divorce and access to millions like other baby mamas in America do. Stupid learner I hope you rot in American jail and greet hushpuppy for us.

Big lesson to Nigerian men bringing women over to America. Keep her ass and pretentious heart back in Nigeria and wire funds to her. Bring her over and break your own heart. If you must marry in America, marry the America born and bred. At least you've seen the worst of those ones. No talk say I no stop you from bringing a woman from Nigerian village.

kingel:
Don't know how you did it but you obfuscated the entire thing. I clearly stated that while Nigerian women on average are dumber(shallow) equality is still paramount. I don't need to start bring up the big 5 traits and how they affect success and relationship. You might obfuscate and connect that to the death of a dying star somewhere in our galaxy. You claim "sexism" lends justification to racism, that's my bone of contention, it's what I don't understand and you went on a long tirade explaining nothing. Congratulations. Take a trip 500yrs to the past in tribal Africa where the man was traditionally seen as the head over a woman, where was racism that that led to or walk up to Europe also patriarchal at that time, Is that what justified the scramble for Africa? Cross to S.A to the Aztecs same thing. I can also connect(read justify) racism and income inequality but it's specious at best I.e the rich would always have better advantage than the poor should I connect it/justify it with racism. I do not deny the disadvantage of the female child in rural and underdeveloped part of Africa, what I don't seem to understand, and I'll repeat again, is how that justifies racism

etrange:
Is this what you understand when I say "lend justification to racism"? So much for the intelligent gender. I will explain.

We're here kicking against racism cause there's no basis for a particular group of humans to claim superiority based on skin colour (a biological factor that no one gets to choose). We posit that even if some countries are more advanced than others, each person should be treated based on thier content cause some blacks are still smarter than some whites and they also are as American as the whites. But then ya'll in Africa rejecting equality and unapologetically advocating for male superiority only end justifying the racist's line of thought. You keep telling the world it's OK to claim "superior human being" based on biological factors. The adverse effects of discrimination, regardless with the form, do no spare any gender. It reduces the overall output of a people. Women might perceive things differently but not necessarily in an inferior way. In fact, this difference in perception is needed to balance things out. But when they are relegated to the back, we lose out on thier style/approach.

In Africa, women have bent to society. A lot of them are have yielded to the claim that they are only there as ornaments. This is not because their brains are inferior, rather it's because of the indoctrination they get from home. Argue all you want, a child could be trained to be in anyway regardless of the gender and provided there are no congenital factors involved. But then parents in Africa structure thier homes to give the impression that girls are just care givers. Girls are explicitly trained to wash, cook, serve and please the boys while boys are allowed to be advebturous and are hardly ever held culpable for thier actions; after all, boys will always be boys. In this process, the male kid in Africa begins to feel superior because of his organs while the girl child is consumed by the desire to be acceptable, getting a good husband. This sense of superiority is further accentuated by the fact that parents invest more in the male child. What's the point in sending the girl abroad to study when another man will come and take her? She can study English Language in school and run a boutique afterwards. Let's spend the money on the man, he will always be here. These are the lines of thoughts that the African parents entertain, and the girl child is further relegated. Sadly, there are some indoctrinations she cannot change as an adult.

What we end up having is a biased society. Our male children end up not having equally capable female counterparts and because they don't appreciate the origin of the problem, they run around insulting women on Nairaland. And because the male child has been trained to get away with anything, it doesn't matter if they sleep around, cheat, etc., Nobody insults the male gender when men engage in online theft, rape, etc. but when a girl does something bad, the entire female gender is insulted. We already believe women can't be successful so anyone women that has some money must be a prostitute. They shouldn't even bother eying some leadership positions where voting is involved. At the end,w're all deprived of what they might be able to offer cause we don't give them the chance.

To correct this, women need to be encouraged, empowered and supported. Gender equality needs to be pushed to a practical level and we must stay open minded and stop seeing people who seek gender equality (feminists) as man haters (misandrists).

GarangDeMabior:
Well understood, more reason Nigeria should start towing same path.

Those who doesn't want the unity again should be allowed to now out.

GarangDeMabior:
That's how country works.

Those that wants to leave should be allowed to leave

Kingpele:
Bye bye hahahaha that is how my kid brother traveled to Ghana to play football, he came back with stories, the day he came back to nigeria, he couldn't allow me to sleep in the night... He kept me awake till 2:00 Am with his tales.. Thank God he later traveled to Europe.. Though we later lost him.. But I can't forget his complaints while in Ghana...

ogaofficer:
Well, you are right. But once I discover that one of my kids is interested in the profession, I will help nuture it not even resources will come in as impediment.

ogaofficer:
We are in the same WhatsApp group my brother. But, by the grace of God one of my kids will become one and possibly end up becoming a missionary pilot working for the propagation of the gospel.
