QUESTION: MUST A WOMAN GET MARRIED TO GAIN RESPECT?

Oya, let's get everyone's thoughts................

I'm listening!!!

No..

Cutehector:
No..

why did u say No

emirp:
why did u say No

I believ respect comes from character, fame and wealth. If a woman has these, den she doesn't need to answr mrs to earn respect frm people

my brother in this life time YES even beyond it will still be YES.

NO
if you respect yourself you will be respected
if you do anyhow you see anyhow

respect is reciprocal
irrespective of your marital status.

but I tend to get the first intention of showing more respect to a married woman, until I see if she deserves it or not.
when she does not deserve it I treat her accordingly.

and when a single lady deserves my respect, I hold it not back but deliver unto her the respect she has earned

thank you

Yes...no matter what she has accomplished there wld always be a but,if she isn't married

Depends on what the woman has achieved so far. I respect hardworking ladies with great accomplishments. Ladies that have achieved what older and married folks couldn't.

I don't care if you have a ring on your finger or not. Show me what you've got and earn my respect.

"....In pain will she bear children and her desire shall be for her husband and he shall rule over her ..."Gen 3:16. No matter how affluencial, influencial, beautiful, academically sound etc a women is, if she has no husband to rule over her she will not be respected!!!! If she like make she graduate from harvard, princton, stanford, oxford, cambridge all the ivy league universities join together nah her sabi...

lets be realistic, a woman shuld not be defined by the word 'marriage' buh this is Africa and you might be miss world, buh the day you go to your village you will be asked, where is your husband

Only in POVERTY-STRIKEN CONTINENTS like Africa!
Single women have to do more 'ASHAWO' work to survive ke!

I'm listening!!!

what are your own thoughts and reason for the question?

do you only show respect to women if they are married?

i'm asking this because you might not be aware your question is not normal.

Must you ask?

No.

Respect is not based on marital status. Respect is reciprocal simple. That's just ridiculous.

Backward mentality

The mere fact that she picks her bills all by herself is enough a reason to respect her.

eermm
how does your verse correspond to the op?

academically, an unmarried woman will be more respected than you, with all your blunders.

In NIgeria, YESS!!! Because other married women will be the first to use her status as a spinster against her.

nah wah oh person no dey follow u play again? U b psquare why are u takin it personally...

Silly topic.

What is this respect? Are you implying Oprah is not respected. Several single woman out there who have achieved a lot on their own without being married, and they are very much respected by all.

Bros, if you boss is a single woman, please don't respect her ok. Talk down on her and you will be where you end up!

Silly topic for unenlightened souls.

Yes...

Nature made it so, a man can remain single & still earn respect, but a woman will be disregarded & unfulfilled... Have u ever asked urself why a woman answers d man's name after marriage.... Because a woman's crown is her husband, they are glorified slaves, they were gotten from just one rib of a man, yet u see dem dragging territories with men...

adam had already been surviving without eve, & would have continued to survive without her... But eve wouldn't have survived a day without adam.

No husband = no respect..

Most unmarried women are whores, dey have no self respect, & no sane man is willing to condone their nasty attitude. If u're a lady, single & u're above 30, sorry for u. But a man can be single & above 60, he will still earn respect...

Thank God am a man, not a glorified slave(woman)...

Gbam. END OF DISCUSSION

I think it's only on internet e.g Nairaland family section that marriage is over-rated.

For example; Genevieve is unmarried and only on cyberspace that men and women will insult her about her marital status.
In the real world, they won't have an effrontery to confront her but will lick her feet instead of that married Mama Nkechi or Tolu with seven kids waiting for her husband to provide everything.

Thank God internet has given some Nigerian an avenue to portray their chauvinistic tendency they can't do offline infront of an accomplished lady.

I think Village settings is going extinct except a lady born and bred in the village.
In urban Nigeria settings, societies mind their business.

Every where in the world a woman has more respec when she is married.
This aso goes for men- They have more respect when they are married.

In Nigeria a man also has more respect when he is married. A family man is seen as more responsible and more maure.
This is also so in the western world.

Some things never change!

Only in Nigeria.

To the point where it becomes the ultimate life ambition of some ladies, irrespective of their educational achievements or not.

Spot on!
