freshdude2: Good you say it was a joke. What facts? That women were not given a chance to have access to education for ages because men like you argued that they were not worthy of it? So you expect them to catch up in a few years when they were oppressed FOR CENTURIES? |

carefreewannabe:Carefree, I'd like to believe this post was made as a result of your infamous comprehension deficiency. Let me try to help you: 1. I ask if you expect something to happen but. You say no, but that it will happen anyway. 2. I, as a good person, go on to define the word "expect", showing that you didn't know what the word meant before. 3. I come years later to find that you make a scandalous post, claiming that I lack logic. Haba. A lesser person would question all of your sanity. Me, I choose to question your education and morals. You either have lost sight of the purpose of that line of argument or there's something more terrible at play. 2 Likes |

carefreewannabe:Even you are not a good example of a woman, you're an embarrassment to feminism. You people claim women can be logical, you, Carefree, prove otherwise. Your arguments on this thread are telling of how you approach logic - with no damn clue. You bring up arguments and when they are eviscerated you bring up even more ridiculous arguments to help buttress. Your affinity for the illogical is astounding. That's by the way. I asked if you believed that men and women are paid unequally for the same job. 2 Likes |

babygirlfl: and that's exactly the point...... the greatest inventors(mostly caucasian males) believe in feminism because their women actually pull their weights. you cannot take a caucasian female out for lunch without her attempting to go dutch on the bill. they are not bought off the shelf by their suitors - no brideprice or baskets of yams, rams, fruits, etc in exchange for the bride... is that the same with african women? the african woman especially nigerian woman still expects the man to foot the bill. 90% of nigerian ladies won't even take their purse out on a dinner date to avoid paying by all means - how then can she be regarded as her partner's equal? the responsibility is on the african women to prove themselves worthy to be recognised as a man's equal. you cannot have it both ways i.e. demand equality & chivalry at the same time. start with scrapping the brideprice and african men will start to see their female counterparts as their equal. until then, continue to see your boyfriend as the head. ![]() 1 Like |

freshdude2: Says someone who made the following statement: 3. Nope, men are fair creatures we are also creatures of habit. If a man sees good work he acknowledges it and expects more good work, if he sees shitty production he remembers that as well and comes to expect from source. Problem is women majorly produce shittiness. Only a few women are truly competent and we respect them for that. Notable among your ilk: Margaret Thatcher, Dora Akunyili, two woemn who didn't need feminism. https://www.nairaland.com/1994945/im-mother-2-boys-cant/4#28000803 |

There are sources that prove that there is a gender gap in many countries, even in the West.

carefreewannabe: are you a morön? have i not warned you repeatedly only to quote me when your brain is working normally?
no, we should talk about temp jobs, secretarial roles and cashiers at supermarkets. you need more IQ to do such roles than the easy engineering jobs around.
by 2017? after almost 100 years of men & women enjoying equal rights in education? 2017 my foot!
pure nonsense! there are only 5 CEOs in the FTSE-100 companies. by your daft logic, 95 of those companies headed by men shouldn't be successful at all or should be less successful than the ones run by women.
yet pure nonsense! where are the girls who were beating the boys in all the subjects in school? one in four female engineers leave the field after age 30, compared to only one in 10 male engineers - start asking yourself why they cannot cope with the job - sėx discrimination or incompetence?
you don't need the future to know there are jobs suited to the menfolk & there are jobs suited to the womenfolk. jobs that are immensely mentally-tasking is not for the women. 4 Likes |
