There are people who disagree with the term "gender equality" and then go on to present their reasons in an intelligent way, but this one is just so shallow.

Why is gender in Nigeria always discussed within the context of marriage? Is that all there is to life?

“Relationships today are ending because women want to be men...”

Auntie, you're really one to talk about broken relationships. Were you not married three times before you married the Ooni? Typical Nigerian woman! Get married, put on a cloak of self - righteousness and judge others for the same things you used to do.

Please stick to being an appendage of a custodian of culture and tradition and leave public speaking alone.

It's the people that gave her microphone I blame sef. What was her qualification to give the speech? If I ran into this lady at the airport, I’d probably chat her up about the most recent Yoruba movies I saw on YouTube, definitely not world issues…

What next ? She’s going to share her opinion on climate change? Girl bye!

badonkadonk:


Pikin mentality still dey worry u... Instead of u to counter what i said intelligently by explaining what u really meant by wat u said...

Instead, U came out to further make us understand why gender equality cannot be possible in Nigeria..

You already "smartly" assumed, implied and concluded my post.
You need no further clarification from me.

This Edo ashewo better not bring gender inequality to the SW.

Yoruba women
1. Have been queens and ruling over kingdoms in the past

2. Get inheritance unlike their Ibo counterparts

3. Are deemed as equal opponents in politics

4. Are equally as educated as men in Yorubaland

5. Work hard just as men

6. Are equally as respected

U re playing with ur life o
Do u know d person u re talking too?
Wat as she said to make u call her ashawo?
By d tym d anger of God and orunmila strikes u now,pple go begin to pitty u.

Better seak for God's forgiveness b4 it's too late for u

You also need to grasp what she is really saying though. We are not equal granted, but we are equal partners. One cannot do without the other.

Has there been any doubts or different opinion to that?

Smh.. Some ladies here can't just comprehend her message.... Seeing " Women Want To Be Men, We Can’t Be Equal "their blood just hot and they started spewing Thrash

cr7lomo:


U can as well change ur moniker to dullyparton. Because what u put up there best describes you as dull

Its way over your head. The challenges that come with being a knucklehead.

cancaworm:

.

You aren't helping matters by been haughty... Simmer down and enlighten us on the topic with your wealth of knowledge..

I alongside the other fellas of this wonderful forum would love to hear your side of the story...

Ifebazz:

You've never lived in Africa/Nigeria. I can tell. Women in Nigeria are often treated as slaves. A man could beat the living shiit outta a woman and nothing would happen. A man can decide tomorrow to tell his wife to leave his house for any reason imaginable and nothing would happen. Abi i lie?

Gender equality to me is anti-God & since it is anti-God it is very very satanic. God has made man to be the head,anything to the contrary is demonic & must be rejected in it's entirety. It is just a western propaganda to debase the order of creator.

As in eh.

She just said something so simple, but the comments here, I don't even understand anymore, maybe she offended all these Nairaland Feminist in their past lives or something.

Most feminists are frustrated and played-out lesbians from dysfunctional homes.

Treated like pigs. Look at this olori that should talk and help the less privileged. No way. She should have kept quiet and focus on her african magic movie if she doesn't know what gender equality means.

You want to be equal yet you expect us to make the Ist move


You want to be equal yet you expect us the foot the bills of you & your friends


You want to be equal yet you expect us to carry all the family's problems on our head


All ye feminists had better waken up from ya fairy tales

Ps: Don't quote me if you're one, unless you want to fall and die for no reason this afternoon

true( except 3) but this is not the point.

Yoruba culture makes it clear that women and men have different roles. .. we are to complement eachother. .. what attention seeking women calling themselves feminists want is to compete with men


Yoruba culture is fair on women but you still see young rude girls say they can't cook...the man should go to the kitchen and cook, they can't sit back to nurse the children...they are tired; but expect a man who provides financial support regardless of their personal wealth, a man that protects them from harm.

any woman who can't cook gladly for her husband and children is no woman. .just as a man who can't provide for his wife and children is no man

Imagine a whoorre dishing out advice

donifez:
A feminist is that full day housewife, a banker, a lawyer. A feminist is that woman that supports her man and vice versa, she is that virtuous woman. That is what I see as a feminist. we all have different roles. Just do it well.

God bless u jare

Yea!yea!yea! Exactly What it is. Yhu said it all.

HaneefahRN:


That is all I can say. I'm tired of hearing such talks everyday. I have nothing against a man being the head in the home and family structure. And I respect the varying roles each gender plays in the family network.

But don't tell me I am below every, Tom, Dick and Harry cos they were born with di.cks and so gender equality is rubbish. Both gender should have equal opportunities in the Society. Be whatever you want to be, in a good way of course without being discriminated against.
She might see herself as inferior to men, but I don't

amtaken:
Why should I be claiming to be equal to my husband when God uses him to provide all my needs and he has never ever bothered about my salaries.

He gives me expensive gifts while I give him boxers. #Wink.


He pays for our trips while I only provide advice and moral support.


Women let's not be selfish! These men are trying! Except of course you have a bad man, then you can be a cheer leader to other frustrated feminists!


I love being a woman!


Don't quote me!!!


Doh!!!

Western woman: Where is the woman who wrote the above from?

African Woman: From Nigeria. It's in Africa.

Western woman: Oh. Makes sense now.

African Woman: Why?

Western woman? Nothing. Carry on.

shame catch me for this woman.why would somebody want to be treated lesser than her fellow human? All these things men are using to brag,things they see as what makes them more superior to us.I don't see them as a big deal.Because some women are doing them with ease.what we want is for the law to give other women the opportunity to do so.Men we no dey drag head of the family with una,we just want our sisters to enjoy education like our brothers,we also want them to marry as adults not children just like our brothers.This is what we mean by gender equality,people should get this into their head and stop spewing thrash most especially those women who just say anything that enters their head in public just to get applauded by their fellow ignorant bigot
