Lol! Don't even go there at alllllll? Men are explorers and take risks much more than do women. Among others, Can you go t*pless or Pee standing up?

martinosi:


Really like how you have been thoughtful on this Post you have started...and to answer
your question Nigerian ladies are Knowledgeable and intelligent, just that most are reserved
and what even better is a Nigerian lady that is Intelligent, Knowledgeable and soft spoken
but when in private can call aside her brother, boy-friend, husband to be or husband
and firmly but in a loving why tell him the true and what he is doing wrong...

When a Nigerian lady has a Nigerian guy that listen and does not interrupt her in private
when she talks that is a Sure Sign that the Guy respects your opinion and Woman-hood...

The True be told when a Nigerian Guy is talking to a Nigerian Lady in private and she
is talking "Do Not Interrupt". A guy that constantly interrupts a lady that talks
to him in private is showing poor signs of communication...

Here we go - my response is emotional rather than logical again because i am a woman, and this will soon be suggested as an intelligent response!

I have had this conversation on this very forum too many times and I have no interest in continuing.


I'm not sure how you are determining facts here, have you quoted invisible statistics to back the claims of general female interest? Have you rebutted my claims with research concluded in Oxford? Do you consider yourself intelligent enough to make such assessments?

Missonas:

Lol this is lame abeg yes i can pee standing up.Everyone does that @eploring and taking risks

Borrusia:
It is quite obvious and peculiar that it is only the so called feminist that failed to acquiesce themselves to the fact that men are the most ultimate and special species in the milky way vis-a-vis somewhat blindly prolly to defend their over-bloated ego.

Who invented law, cars, electricity, fridge, shoes, clothes, houses, stove, gas-cooker, softdrinks and alcohol, plane, bicycle, accommodation of pets, space explore, computers, cell-phone, education, biro, and every damned thing Human can't do without! Is it females?

Though females to are smart and unique in their own ways, but if placed on a juxtaposition with the masculine gender; the result will be handicapped.

Vickybee:

Politics section is too hot for ladies except ones that can stand insults.

I think you should visit Family section to see intelligent ladies.

Romance section girls are not just it.

gagewonda:
its funny hw dis guy feels because we r talking abt how knowledgeable pple are, he can come up here wit big big unrecognised grammar. brox abeg tone it down

Shezhawt:
Oh well... Dunno how to answer that.... But I love to act like a lady, think like a man..

kinglekan:


Here is where I have a problem with some of the ladies who have actually been vocal enough. Its a simple question, there is no need to attack the personality that created the thread.

Make your points without being rather insulting.




You can as well drop it and let us all learn from what you read. That's what this is all about. Plus quit the use of such language @emboldened. It would only lead to a total deviation from the subject matter.




The OP didn't make any argument and you haven't done so either. You have just as many others have, made a statement based on secular reasoning or rather your belief.

Going by your initial analogy about the OP not meeting classy ladies, I could say the same about you not meeting classy Men. (Would that make me right?)

Same thing I told a particular moniker. If I said Jollof rice is far the best food in the world from all the variety I have tasted, have I proven anything?

NO Facts, NO Point.

Chikena!!

tosyne2much:
Na so boss mi.. Personally, I believe that if we argue from now till 2moro using Dora Akunyili, Okonjo Iweala and other prominent female Nigerians, or using a lady who made a CGPA of 4. 99 as a stance, it's will never change the fact that men can do better than women virtually in everything on the facet of the each. It's a mystery bro

iPrevail:


Lol...

I believe that in a century or two all these is bound to change, when intellectually-dearth species of females have gone extinct.
Somehow I don't fault them, women were deprived of the kind of exposure men had because they were considered weak and inferior.. I'm sure I don't need to lecture you what collective opinion can do to a person's character.
Now we have women making breakthrough in technology and science... Imagine this had happened centuries ago.. We probably wouldn't be having this argument.

AncientJerk:
The opinion of the o.p is perfectly reasonable and does have some body of supporting evidence. I have personally observed that the vast majority of well educated girls not only do not have much knowledge but are also quite disinterested in acquiring knowledge of certain topics most especially political ones. Given the fact that politics is pretty much inextricably linked with our day to day lives, i have wondered why women are so generally disinterested in it.

I usually generally only talk (on a deeper level) with university educated ladies/young ladies and i usually always throw them a test question on a political subject or on something that pertains to every day life. On one occasion, i asked this girl "what do you think of the situation in Gaza?" (during the last major conflict) and she replied asking me what Gaza was. This was a medical student. However that's not to say that all male students her age would be completely clued in on such topics but to be that uninformed is inexcusable in my opinion. This young lady went further to state proudly that the she only reads news on subjects such as the lifestyles of the rich and famous. I was appalled but then began to observe a trend. Most girls do not have anything very tangible to say when you ask them questions about their future and how they plan to change the world. I have come up with following stereotyped observation that may explain this behavior.

1. Nigerian ladies are more self centered and thus serious issues which do not directly affect them are of less interest to them. More so when they are being provided for by a husband or father.

2. Nigerian ladies have the underlying assumption that certain things are a man's job.

3. Nigerian ladies no matter how educated they are, tend to hold on to their beauty (if they have any) as their source of sustenance. A Nigerian lady no matter how rich and powerful she is (especially while young) will always aim to get married to someone richer than her if she has good looks.

4. Our male-dominant culture reinforces this paradigm.

Understand that the point here is not that women are not intelligent or that women are not capable of high performance in demanding situations; the point is that women largely do not show interest nor insight into the less academic everyday affairs of life where "street smarts" are of greater value than "book smarts"

lastly do remember that stereotypes exist because a significant number of the population have exhibited the stereo-typed trait; however, there will always be exceptions to the rule which do not negate the rule.

Borrussia:
Here comes the tale of a lunatic.

missclasssy:
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?

kunletiwoo:

Of course we should start from the lamest naw... Even though you skipped one of the questions

Borrussia:
Thank God you made mention of several centuries to come, but its only gonna get worse in my own cognition, let's refrain from the idea of using white women as an example but our very own. Most Nigerian women are exclusively dumb and cynically pathetic.

I can even begin to incogitably think of how local and myopic they are, bunch of ignoramus. Even the so called Nigerian feminist with little knowledge have girded themselves to the fact that the cannot be convinced of an obvious fact, and had accustomed themselves to impertinent hullabaloo of intending competitions with the male, If there is any woman on this forum that can indubitably state a pandemic fact without loathing her counterpart should please step out, I'm a worthy opponent

queensmith:


Without quoting you directly I am going along the statement you made that you hardly ever see women in intelligent discourse.

No doubt the politics section on nairaland will put women off - their attitude towards women is not one they even try to hide. I dare you to go to the politics section and ask 'why are there no women' and see the nonsense responses you will get by men with the brain capacity of goats. That men frequent the politics section doesn't mean they are intelligent. I wouldn't bother mounting my high horse here - i welcome you to go yourself and sensibly decide how many posts are indeed intelligent.

I will draw your attention to Obiagellis post on Buharis proposed welfare package, she was insulted by goats who didn't even try to suggest why the insults were warranted. Only a handful of individuals could accurately pin point the flaws and were graceful enough to make adjustments. These same goats wouldn't dare talk if the OP had been a man!

How many women want to face the boys club? Why should they? We are not trained or even encouraged from birth on how argue with men! We are even told to be submissive and some religions teach that a woman is half of a man. Please tell me in the face of these cultural and religious barriers how many women do you expect to flock out?

In the face of this, elitists remain unperturbed, again I draw your attention to the occupation of Nigerian women in the best institutions worldwide - you may never find them on Nairaland, they may not live in Nigeria but they do exist and if you look hard enough you will find them!

I use the term intelligent very carefully, and I can confidently say I have only ever met a handful of Nigerian men I will deem intelligent. Or will indeed sit down and listen to for more than 10 minutes, I am definitely not making observations from sports bars and football stadiums.

vfactor:


Women will always defend women, even if the points for defence are off point. The question was "Are Nigerian men wiser and more knowledgeable than Nigerian women"? Not "Does being knowledgeable and educated equate being smart"?

Your comment just confirmed exactly what we are saying.

Vickybee:
Well, i'm an exception.

Missonas:

Did i?probably didn't get it

blublahd:


Chest beating is chest beating.
Do not twist this into a "since a man does it so can a woman." i careless about that crap.


She stated her own opinion based on her own analyses and further raised a question for anyone's contrary opinion


Women all over the world had a hard time championing their course at respective times in their countries' history, lets not play victim.




Now this is an insult to women at large. Unfortunate circumstance doesnt make one bereft of intellectual capabilities.
Plus just because one goes fixing toes nails doesnt mean they cant discuss intellectual matters there.
Lastly she didnt say they are nowhere to be found, its a case of proportion to males.

The thread is insulting!


so now a gender can be proven to be inherently daft under certain analogies?
You have then defeated logic on emotional sentiments.

missclasssy:


Really?

kunletiwoo:


I believe "some" women suffer from a mild and extremely localized form of Tourette Syndrome. The afflicted organ? Their tongues. That’s why "some" of them cannot shut their f**king mouths for ten seconds while adults are speaking around them. Their tongues are battling around in their mouths like drunken Vipers.

What's ur definition of a stating a pandemic fact. @ red coloured, u ended doing exactly what you r claimed to abhor through the green coloured.
