[size=18pt]Angela Merkel is married for the second time. She divorced her first husband. I guess, she would suffer from social stigma if it was Nigeria and would have never been elected to the highest office as a divorcee. Right?

Christine Lagarde is divorced.

Mother Teresa has never been married.

Oprah Winfrey has never been married.

Park Geun-hye, the current president of South Korea, is single.

I could go on but I guess it is enough to show that what you said up there (see red) is WRONG. [/size]

Electronzeez:


Lol, cool I am sure you will be good at it.

Good afternoon now,how is mum and your siblings e**** Paul?.

Epaul:
They are all quiet. kindly, remove my surname bro.

Genesis 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

raayah:


If Genevieve wanted to marry she would have done so a long time. Where do you people get this idea that women are looking for "husband"?

Do you know how much messages/dates that the average nairaland female user gets weekly?. Even walking down the street gaan sef. It's even easier at parties /clubs/weddings to find a man.
Nigeria is heavily populated ! Most women who are not married usually have a very good reason in Nigeria usually have a solid reason.

MrLouisVanGaal1:


You are probably between 19 and 25. A time where a young lady can be wild and free and say things like 'i don't need marriage' 'i don't need a man'. in 5, 10 or 20 years time when you would achieved all you want in life, shut out everyone mocking you for still being single, you will then sit and realize you are an emotional creature. Emphasis on emotional. At that time you will know what the word 'void' means in the dictionary and then you will fully understand what a ring and a Mrs completing you actually meant. Not the naive, girlish understanding you have now. It's funny how one of your champions Beyonce never gave that ring a second thought and she even brags with the name Mrs Carter.

pinkiberry:
mizmycoli I took my time to read this post and am here telling you that you are hypocritical. You carry feminism for head,deceiving young girls on social media,telling them marriage is not important,they don't need a man in their lives,the are complete without a man,but you got married,and now you are your hussy pet,doing his bidding. I guess that is why you didn't post your wedding pictures. Cut me some slack. I dislike hypocrites.

you are just like davido laughing at his friend years ago for having a baby mama but today he has his own babymama.
next time you wanna post shhit on social media, you think well. women need marriage, it makes a woman complete. I know now you must be feeling fulfilled cos you finally married.

"The beauty of a woman is her husband"......... So they taught me.

WEEK...... women's education ends in kitchen. So I heard in primary school. But my wife's own didn't end in kitchen though.

Proverbs 31......... told me something about being a virtuous woman. And verse 11 says "The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that He shall have no need of spoil"


I assume you are a christian, read it first and come back let's talk.

See Op, all these rich ladies are not happy they are not married. They cry in their secrets. Some of them confided in me and told me so. Ask Linda and Genevive, you think they don't want to be like Omotola?

Arsenate:
oh shiiit, mizmycoli is married after all. Gaddamit.
That girl sure has to win the biggest hypocrite of all time.

Vickyydera:
Marriage is important, without marriage the society will look at you awkwardly and again women that discourage marriage use it to console themselves because they are not yet married. Most of the women that discourage marriage are mostly bitter,lonely and insecure.


Pinkiberry abeg leave mizmycoli alone, she may have over talked but for her to get married shows that she knows within her self that men are essential in a woman's life.

Congrats Mizmycoli, invite me to your wedding o.

doveda:
can you shut up please?

Vickyydera:
my friend keep quiet, what I said its true. mizmycoli wasn't married when she was condemning marriage. have you seen any married woman condemning marriage or tell you women don't need marriage? reason before you spew trash.

if you guys want,you can condemn marriage all you want, it won't stop me from getting married and also be an independent successful woman, you can be both so don't come here and showcase your ignorance and bitterness then hide under the umbrella of feminists.

doveda:
Where did I claim to be a feminist? You need to take a look at my own opinion. Your inability to think doesn't mean others can

It is not my fault that you have been told that most single women are bitter, lonely and bored. You are so fvcking scared of being lonely, bored and bitter that it has affected your ability to actually think of yourself. The OP is not saying that women should aspire not to get married. Use your brain Miss. She is saying that women must forge their own individuality, most Nigerian ladies (Nairaland guys always mention this) believe that marriage is next thing in their life, instead of thinking about career progression or becoming a better person for themselves, they just can't be bothered. Marriage is everything to them. That is why most guys would often all them fish brained. Basically, the op wants women to develop themselves for themselves and not for marriage sake. Everyone including a man or a woman is more than a title!


But then, I don't expect you to understand. You have been told over and over that without marriage you are nothing, without marriage you will be lonely, bitter, miserable and boring. In fact, you will get married to any man including a theif because you do not want to end miserable, bitter and lonely. You need this message more darling. Married women like ed.wife and mindful.ness will never ask you not to get married but they will tell you are more than a title.

Vickyydera:
what the hell are you even saying? so you are trying to say that a woman can't be married and also be successful, then who told you women don't develop themselves for themselves? haven't you seen women with degrees and good job yet the aspire to Marry,your argument doesn't hold water. Any single Lady that is old enough to get married but isn't married yet condemning marriage is a bitter and lonely person. The fact that you are not married doesn't give you the opportunity to transfer bitterness to others.

Try and read thus thread from page 1to 10 then you understand what am saying.
I had to view mizmycoli profile cos of this and I must say most of her topics in women feminist stuff are always bitter.

doveda:
Did you read the first example she gave? Read it and understand the context. Quote me when you do.

Vickyydera:
she didn't just talked about women being independent and single, she also referred to marriage as unimportant which I find quite annoying, people shouldn't impose their belief on us, if you don't like marriage or you think it is overrated then don't impose it in us or a create a thread about it.

Vickyydera:
Now am beginning to think pinkiberry was right in what she said. why tell us you dont need men/marriage cos you are miss independent and end up walking down the alter, it doesn't make sense. Nairaland feminist I hail una o. hahaha.

I guess we won't be hearing from the op again now that she is married. That's how their feminist dream die. Why are single ladies mostly feminists?

proxillin:
[size=15pt]But come to think of it.

To my anti-marriage feminists. Marriage is joy and strength of a woman.

Show me a single successful woman. NONE. I am not talking about female celebrities who are into semi-prostitution.

I am talking about powerful women. They are all married.

Hilary Clinton - is married. Despite her husband cheating on her, she still stayed in the marriage. She nurtured her marriage and she got to places. To get to place of power, you need to show the world you have a family and you are responsible. No singleton will be taking serious.

Angela Merchella (German Prime minister) - She is married

Mention a powerful woman in the society, you will see she is married.

All these lopsided writeups to dissuade/discourage women from marriage is just out of it.

Even a comic character like Kim Kardashian is not joking with her family
[/size]

proxillin:


[size=15pt]Read the ops message. The message is about how women should not take marriage serious. They should not train themselves for marriage.
Any woman taking advise from post of this type will end up being Rihanna, Myley Cyrus of this world. They are human with no respect.[/size]

nasha1:
Why do i have this impression of women consoling themselves once they reach 30.
You can't read such from men,only women like re-assuring their worth.They go on and on about how they are not defined by a ring or a man but once they reach their late 40,they become frustrated,snatching other people husband,having bastards everywhere.
A happy woman doesn't need to write long essay to show people that she is happy,it shows in her.This is what i call depression.

pinkiberry:
I just dug up this post because I saw a thread on Nairaland where mizmycoli said something about her husband, then I was really shocked cos this woman carry feminism for head,she getting married this year was surprising and she did it secretly, telling her friend her husband is a private fellow,he won't like to see his pictures online.
Am not saying mizmycoli shouldn't be a feminist o but her own is too much.

Hi there

I appreciate that you follow my posts which means you either have a good understanding of my personality or grossly misunderstand me‎.

I would like for you to point me to any thread on NL, where I declared either directly or indirectly that I'm a feminist.
Thank you.‎
