cao: Thank you Keep replying him. Good thing is, you won't be banned. ANB, I think you should face Cao and Ishilove squarely and leave standd out of this. I know why 1 Like |

AllNaijaBlogger:Guy, I'd already answered your question before you asked it. That post y'all like to keep quoting, already covered that. Plus, you've seen for yourself on how I handle misogyny in my section, you've seen it in one of your own threads. In fact, you even tried to stoke the flames once. |

standd: Why is everyone taking me to be the bad guy? I am not a mod or supermod.....just one guy trying to see women's rights on nairaland. Please ooo! no vex! dont be angry with me |

cao: Good work, then. But you could do more outside your section (I know I'm asking a lot). You too could open certain pro-women threadS? I didnt stoke anything ooo. Haba. I don't have any beef with you. We cool |

AllNaijaBlogger:All we can hope for is that TPTB attempt to do a more balanced job, yes traffic is good, but I'd still like to open NL in public without cringing. There's amazing content on NL & unfortunately no one notices that when they go to our FP. This is a forum, not a blog. 1 Like |

cao:I see. Then I believe your gaze should be directed to the north, because as far I know, women here in the south have the same rights as men, its only in places like northern Nigeria you see women rights being trampled upon. So your feminism gaze should be focused on northern Nigeria where their religion is just as oppressive and repressive to females like the christian religion (in a way). |

AllNaijaBlogger:I will be very honest with you here: I didn't create counter threads for the simple reason that I just don't give a flying fvck about gender issues. |
Re: The Pandering To Anti-intellectualism On Nairaland (part 1; Misogyny) by cao(f): 12:49pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
joseph1832:From the views I've witnessed on NL & other sites, it appears the gaze should be cast worldwide. |

Ishilove: Pitiful. |

cao:If it felt that way, it is because I hardly visited the TBT thread. It was during the latter end of my tenure that I began to visit there, so it wasn't deliberate. The thread was created before I became a mod so it was kinda easy to forget it existed. Sorry about that |

standd: How are you doing lady? |
Re: The Pandering To Anti-intellectualism On Nairaland (part 1; Misogyny) by Ishilove: 12:55pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
AllNaijaBlogger:No it isn't pitiful, sir. My interests as an individual lie elsewhere and gender issues do not feature there. If I had my way all these lists that make it to the frontpage will be scrapped because 90% of them are a load of bollocks, but at the end of the day I mostly avoid them. The world is what it is. 1 Like |

joseph1832: Broseph, please, you are talking nonsense. Yes the north is worse than the south in Gender equality, however, the south of Nigeria has a myriad of problems when it comes to gender issues! Do we not see ridiculous restrictions on women's dressing in churches? My cousin from the UK was embarrassed in church because she didnt cover her hair. Do we not see women being called "slots" (intentional misspell) because they dress sexy? abegi...dont start |

Ishilove: When you are directly affected by the Gender issues, how can you not be bothered about it? An educated woman in Nigeria where your husband can beat you and get away with it (police will claim "its a family matter)............... Ostrich's head in the sand comes to mind. |

Ishilove:Fair enough. Unfortunately, the other alternative doesn't seem to bode well either, I know for a while, I was the only one who used it. I guess, I'll have to re-air my grievances on that matter to TPTB...maybe I'll take a one on one approach, instead of a general one. |

Ishilove: Me I know I liked you in a I-want-to-do-very-dirty-things-to-you way. Then I embarked on my campaign of self-change/improvement. |
Re: The Pandering To Anti-intellectualism On Nairaland (part 1; Misogyny) by Nihilist: 1:26pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
standd: That is the whole truth. I was intially even apprehensive of writing my experience with the Brazilian down because she is literally the most beautiful woman I have ever been with, because she got with me despite a complete lack of English/Portuguese both ways, despite the fact that I'm not particularly good-looking and have crooked teeth, and most importantly because I turned her down. It's like winning the lottery and still deliberately burning your ticket. When she left my room that morning, I had to give some serious thought to the idea that I could have finally lost my sanity. |

Nihilist:Your transition from jackbauersballs to Nihilist is anything BUT an improvement. You became a 21st century neanderthal |
Re: The Pandering To Anti-intellectualism On Nairaland (part 1; Misogyny) by Ishilove: 2:12pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
cao:Yes, i think that will be better that way. Although i doubt it will make much difference |
Re: The Pandering To Anti-intellectualism On Nairaland (part 1; Misogyny) by Nihilist: 2:15pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
Ishilove: lol It was a massive improvement. I stopped getting into e-scraps as much. I restricted myself mostly to the sports section...I stopped antagonising mods...then you became one. By the by, I think I'm by far less abrasive online as I used to be...though most of the old frenemies have largely left the site anyway leaving only a few mumulectuals behind. |
