Actually, what modern feminists and pseudo-feminists alike are doing is riding on the successes of their forerunners.

First-wave and early second-wave feminism have just about succeeded in it's goal, but that's just about it.

Modern feminism is already a failed movement if it can not introduce anything substantial and economically/socially significant.
All I keep seeing/hearing them fight for is;
- how to go bare-breasted because men can,
- how to have sex with countless men and not be called who.res,
-how to earn the same as men in the same professional category (forgetting that men don't get maternity leaves and are on average more productive),
- how to increase the number of house-husbands so they can assume authority,
- how to sing and chant 'who runs the world? Girls!' while dressing half-naked and objectifying themselves in the process etc. etc.

The things that modern feminism seems to be interested in are purely vain and self-actualizing rather than economically sound.
I don't see how achieving any of the few things I listed above makes the world a better place...at best, those are just selfish desires.

I and a lot of other people will take modern feminism serious the day they venture into the middle-east and some other countries to liberate the women there whose rights are being taken for granted, instead of staying put in the western countries that already see them as equals while shouting and screaming equality for all women-folk.

if you decide to deliberately misunderstand or dliberately put words in my mouth, well that's your cancer!!!

Where exactly did i insinuate that her achievement do not count just because she worked with her husband?

Nigger, i am science inclined and you cannot begin to understand the extent to which i appreciate scientific concepts and theories as well as those who first made us to know them.

I am not the one putting so much emphasy on the STEMs. Infact, i believe that i brought up philosophy somewhere. Feminists are the ones who place so much importance on the STEMs. Your comerade, stillfire, is one of such.

Vickybee:
Consolation. Sorry, eh.
Anyway, your ugliness is the least of my worries.

Whose post is this?

craziebone:


haha! This is strawman arguement my dear, especially with the tubman example.

I didn't mean that women are incapable of something sublime, of course they are! There are countless examples of women who have actually done alot to advance intellectualism and the world has benefited from their work so much. I can even add to your list if you want me to.

What i was trying to drive home is that women are generally (and when i say generally, i mean on the average) are not relaxed by subjects like Physics, mathematics and philosophy. Hence the natural low number of women in those area. Dora, though a pharmacist, is not known for inventing any drug really. She is known more with chairing an organization that was highly effective in combating fake drugs. Her achievements are more in the area of management rather than pharmacy, her chosen proffession. But feminism came up and because it is more concerned about elitism and man jealousy, it decided to push women into areas that just do not relax them.

Today, even though women make up a large part of stem courses and sometimes are best graduating students in those courses, their overall contribution to the advancement of the field is still very very low.

Also, it is important to note that the work for which Marie Curie is known, she did it together with a man, her husband. They were both awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry for their pionering work in radioactivity.

So no! The arguement doesnt go both ways.

NB: Dora's excellecnce at NAFDAC was inspired by her personal story. The fight against fake drugs was personal to her. She needed an extra push to trigger her inovative skills. Einstein did not need a very personal extra push to come up with his theory of relativity. The extra push he had was the basic extra push men have always had that inspired them to be great explorers, innovators and patriachs. That extra push is just simple curiousity.

my wife has to have an excellent culinary skill even when she's pregnant. pregnancy is not a disease. she would cook more while pregnant sef. pregnant women need to exercise more to ease delivery of the child.

Lol, this is why I like you. The fraud on this thread is annoying. In one breath they say women are not cut out for so called tough jobs and are sad, but they still want her to pursue her education, get straight A's and become a housewife. Men deciding women's fate since 300 BC. Chai!

So what do you think of the premise of this discussion? If women are not cut out for the workforce, cannot build civilization, are basically tantamount to nonentities who are stealing the air that men are supposed to only breathe, shouldn't women focus more on their 'innate' home economics skills, why educate a girl to university taking the space of genuine men like yourself who need to get admission into the university?

Are you going to use derivatives to cook nkwobi and egusi soup?

i can categorically tell you the modern woman is extremely sad. 1 in 3 women take anti-depressants in the US. the study also found that women are two and a half times more likely to take antidepressant medication as males,

23% of women ages 40 to 59 take antidepressants, more than in any other age or sex group. in a nutshell, you cannot be happy and yet consume such amount of pills. the use of anti-depressants has gone up to a whopping 400% in the last 2 decades.

mr crackhaus, i hope i have been able to convince you that the modern woman is extremely sad.

women should be educated - contrary to what you think, every man desires a woman that can present a mentally-stimulating points in an argument. however, if she desires to marry & raise rugrats, her career needs to pause till those kids make it to high school(at the very least). it's the most ideal method to nourish the kids.



because there are women(albeit very few) who do not desire marriage or desire to have kids. for this minority few, nothing should stop them from going as far as they can in their career. maternity leave or what not does not apply to them.

for the ones who wants to be married to a man and perhaps have kids in the future, they should be educated enough to a degree level and then stay home to raise their families.

it's counter-productive to the economy to give women equality rights to pursue degrees in top universities only for those women to abandon their career to raise kids. for every woman that does that, a man who could have taken his career to the level of einstein has been denied.



i am very poor in the kitchen - it's a skill i never thought i needed. if i am hungry, i will buy food rather than waste my precious time adding derivatives to cook nkwobi & egusi stew.

Stillfire:

Every man wants a mentally stimulating woman, but do not want the consequences of her being mentally stimulated.

Do you put into consideration that the prospects of getting a job after being out for years limits anyone's chances of joining the workforce afterwards. If you can assure women that the future won't be bleak for them, maybe they will stay home .

For now, I have a solution though, men should be invested in the home as well as much as women, in order to 'strike a balance'. I am not against protecting the family unit. Good families make for good society.

By derivatives, I mean maths/physics o. Read that sentence again.

I agree 100%. But crazie bone thinks there's nothing wrong in it going all the way and not getting anything out of it.

You are so right, African women do waste too much time cooking this and that when they could easily order take out or dine in.
