You didn't have to insult me you know.

No I didn't insult you - but it is clear despite your username that the females you are exposed to are those with no class.

this is more of chest beating, and attacking the messenger than the message.

Perhaps, men are allowed to do it and so are we.

A woman has said she never sees women involved in intelligent conversations and suggests due to that fact, that Nigerian men are more intelligent than the women.

Apart from the fact that women are traditionally at a disadvantage due to our culture and traditions - Nigerian women have proven to ruthless in professional achievement and educational attainment. Those of us that attended the best schools in the world (especially as a Nigerian woman) will tell you Nigerian women are easier to find than men in these institutions.

Because you don't find them lined up on Allen or fixing their nails in Ketu doesn't mean they don't exist, and because they have little to no interest in Nairaland or lack the opportunity to delve into politics doesn't mean they are nowhere to be found.

The thread is insulting!

Not to say we cannot debate facts to determine whether a certain gender is inherently daft in comparison, but it cannot be done intelligently with the OPs flimsy opinions kmt.

No women are jars of knowledge, it's just that they are busy humans they have a lot of things acting in them and on them that they do not have time for arguments and opinions unlike guys who are always idle minded and free headed
And that is why crime is more in the guy folks; idle minds

men commit crime in the bid to keep demselfs buzy why women cheat or gossip or backbite due to idleness tongue

Despite the saying that the most educated are Nigerian men...I have met a plethora or "educated" Nigerian men who can't reason to save their life. Just because you can regurgitate what you have digested from lecture halls doesn't make you smart.

Education and Intelligence are two separate definitions and you would think it would be interchangeable but, if George Bush Jr who graduated from an ivy league institution can be coined as the dumbest president in HISTORY.

Educated doesn't mean you have wits or common sense that is what smart is!

I bet to disagree bro. Let's take African society out of this

For as long as the world exist, women will never be as knowlegeable as men, that's the bitter truth bro. Let's stop deceiving ourselves bro

Have you ever wondered why whites are better than Africans in all ramification? No matter how hard we try, we can never measure up to the whites. It's a mystery bro

If someone tells you we will measure up to white in terms of knowledge, dat person just dey console himself ni
Bwahaha... That would be ignorance on your side to think this way though. There are many factors which contributed to that. The fact that it has not been scientifically proven to be as you said makes your statement very questionable. Asians were also thought to be unintelligent compared to white people in the past but today they usually come top on the intelligence graph.

missus, we are given a Nigerian setting for the record.

Here in our African country - Nigeria. Many young women barely discuss serious topics like sports or international politics. Most are very immature and fairly literate. You now understand why many of them chat with 'k'. 'kkk' 'ayt' 'em'.




Seriously. Just little more at nd I'll give up!

This question has really been bothering me for quite some time. From my observation, it seems guys tend to me more versatile and knowledgeable in a lot of areas than ladies.

In public settings, you hardly find women making reasonable arguments and discussions, its just mindless chit-chats and gossip, unlike guys who argue important facets of life like philosophical concepts and politics.

I stayed in the girls hostel in school and I hardly ever witnessed a reasonable argument or discourse.
Even here on Nairaland, I have noticed the same thing. On the religion and politics section for instance, you rarely see ladies involving in intelligent discourse and arguments. Just few.

I stay in lagos and I listen to the radio a lot.
There are particular programs I enjoy listening to such as,
~ Chat station with Nelly
~Morning crossfire, both on Nigeria info 99.3.
A lot of intelligent and educative discussions on various topics are being held on these programs but you find out that 95% of the contributions are made by men.

Why is all this so?. Is it that ladies are scared to share their opinions or they just aren't as wise and knowledgeable as the guys?
I pity u

Re: Are Nigerian Guys Wiser And More Knowledgable Than Nigerian Ladies. by Ifebazz(m): 2:19pm On Apr 20, 2015
Take Nairaland as a case study. The rooms you see the ladies popping up their heads are in feeble discussions like ; Funke wore white skirts, Joseph brushed his teeth this morning, imagine what Denrele wore to the bathroom, Genevive in a red blouse at night etc. That's how busy the ladies are.
If they mistakenly graduate from clothes and shoes, they pop up in say religion ; where is it in the bible, see what a pastor's wife wore to church etc.
I guess that forms about 70% of their 'non-idle' state.

Please tell me your basis for determining each genders level of intelligence?

Tell me how you've gathered these samples analysed your results and adjusted for bias?

Tell me how you've made your comparisons and why exactly you think you carry the capacity to judge anybodies intelligence?

Could it be that you assume when a man makes a statement it is automatically intelligent?

Tell me how much you frequent the politics section of NL and how exactly you've gathered any one post is intelligent? Especially on this forum.

This thread should have been on FP long ago. I keep seeing hollow threads hitting the FP. And has anyone noticed most of the active female nlders kept away from this discuss. Tells a lot about what we're debating here.

It furthermore stresses all we have been talking about for sometime now. FP has always been about traffic. Intellectual issues hardly drive traffic and its so sad.

Well apart from issues on politics which are not necessarily intellectual but are just issues that constantly affect our daily lives. Like some would say "Naija politics na like action movie" grin

Honestly I have just been reading the different arguments here cos I have been quite busy and I have learnt quite a bunch.

Thanks @Vickybee and @Darkrebel666 for the heated debate. (You guys have further proven that there are only two schools in Naija. wink )

But as much as we like to argue back and forth on this matter I still believe Nigerian men are more knowledgeable. (My Opinion)

There are knowledgeable ladies/women no doubt and am 100% sure a lot of them a considered boring, weird and "ITK's" by their female counterparts.

Even if this thread hits FP, I wouldn't be surprised at the few female monikers that would contribute and make a very good argument. If the intellectual ladies are not on social media platforms like NL, where else would they be? (Maybe Twitter )

In addition, like in conventional debates the side that takes the day are not necessarily right. They have only been able to substantiate their reasoning with more facts.

Let's face reality here, how often can women do what men can do better ?

The saying "what a man can do, a woman can do better" does not happen often

What is the ration of woman that can drive better than men ?

What is the ratio of female footballers that are better than men ?

What is the ratio of women that succeed more than men ?

What is the ratio of women that are more innovative than men ?

The major ish I have with Nigerians is their ability to make absurd conclusions without any form of research or analysis. Overtime we generate a mindset based on what we hear, what we see and what we believe to have been the norm. with education one would expect that Nigerians would shed this 'archaic belief system' and inculcate a more educated, certified and research proven one.

never will I agree or even contemplate for a second that females are less intelligent than men.
I wonder how a learned person would jump to that conclusion.
Even using Nigerias ministerial slot has a random case study, how many male ministers have made A lasting impact, the average Nigerian can remember names like Oby Ezekwesily, Okonjo, Dora to mention a few, still the most active and intelligent ministers till date.

I am of the view that we have intelligent men and women, no sex is by nature weaker. Rather cultures aid is empowering one at the expense of the other.
I agree to some extent that the Nigerian culture has relagated women to domestic objects, even till date in the north and some middle eastern countries, women aren't sent to school and men are from birth given that orientation that they are the STRONGER sex. This na all wash.
I was privy to graduate from a Nigerian federal university and from my 100 level till graduation (not to sound proud), but I don't think there was anyone on an higher echelon than moi, there were many on the same par and some more intelligent only in the course of study, but in terms of overall knowledge, nada.
Now I am not talking of your ability to get A in calculus and your English being depressing. Being Intelligent is an all rounder.
We have both intelligent men and women, the truth is just that the men are just more vocal and tend to throw it in your face and the women more laid back.
I laugh when peeps talk of sections like politics on nairaland, sorry to burst your bubble guys but intelligent people have more productive things to do than spend the entire day on nairaland ( Nairaland is wonderful, pls don't misunderstand me). They occasionally flash in and out.
About girls being obsessed with fashion and make up, well look at it this way, there are alot of guys who know more about Chelsea than the history of Nigeria, the same with girls.

Both sex have a blend of the intelligent, the funny, the social and fashion conscious, the nerds, the football freaks, the computer dorks, the leaders and the followers. SIMPLE.

First of all its clear that you are looking at my view from the standpoint that I have already concluded that men are more intelligent and "knowledgeable" than women.
I never said I was of that opinion, I just asked a question.

You also got my other statement wrong. I didn't say men where making intelligent contributions in sections like politics and religion, I only said that from observation, I noticed that most ladies don't engage in intellectual discourse in those sections.

Well, the guys really are. The problem has to do with the media. Women prefer to talk more about their feelings than guys.

Second is, paying so much attention to looks. Girls spend a lot of time applying make ups while it is other way round for guys. We love to show how superior we are.

Third, is relationship. Majority of these girls have been abused and as a result, they have nothing to offer anymore. Asked a girl last time what she's studying, but she responded Bank and Finance. What a catastrophe! cheesy

Lack of integrity is really affecting most girls and they do live a fake life.

Inspite of all these, some girls are still good and are intelligent.
