It is a known fact that the Bible is a fake book written by sexist and misogynist men to glorify themselves.

The holy Bible is as fake as Kemi Adeosun's NYSC certificate. No religion has the interests of women at heart therefore you can't tell me you're a feminist when you're still going to church -practicing Christianity that doesn't mean well for women.


Still waiting for the day the fraud called catholic church would elect a woman as its pope.

Not slave. Man and woman are not equal. Every religion of the world understands that.

That a husband helps his wife with chores and stuffs doesn't make both of them equal.
When you use the word "subject", one is controlled with force like a puppet or slave.

What are the criteria of being equal?

Please people stop picking just a part of the Bible,read it as a whole. So what did God do to men here? Turn them to sacrificial lamp?

Ephesians 5:22-33 New International Version (NIV)
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing[a] her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body.

Yes, the writer is absolutely right, infact it's even more worse in Islam, where women are just objects.

But do I believe the Bible? No
Because it's full of contradictions, baseless and senseless stories..

Do I believe in men and women equality? Yes
But in the family, the husband is the head of the home and wife the helper. It doesn't make the woman a less human 9r inferior to the husband. They only have separate roles

@Hanseel1 who are you to question the authenticity of the Bible. You are a mere mortal created from the dust of the earth and dust shall you return. Go back to your history books and see the outcome people who spoke ignorantly about the word of God...You can fight a battle with devil and win. But no one wins a battle with God!!

The husband should not even be doing that. Just treat her like your dog or just a maid. That's cool angry

I hope you marry a really chauvinistic man angry

Pope?! That’s too far, let’s start with a female priest of a local church.

Exactly. Women should be submissive to their husbands. Men should love and Cherish their wives.Its difficult to adhere to this.And that's where the devil penetrates from. Women should be allowed to evolve and partner with the man as a helper.A man cannot bear the burdens of life alone.Women should submit totally to their men(husbands).

SEE THIS ONE CAMPAIGNING TO BE LEFT ALONE TO REMAIN A SLAVE. I DON'T BLAME YOU.. YOU'RE IN NIGERIA AND ENJOY A LOT OF ADVANTAGES AS A WOMAN AND THAT'S WHY YOU WANT TO BE LAZY WITH NO AMBITIONS. YOU JUST WANT TO KEEP SAYING "YES SIR" TO ALL A MAN SAYS AS LONG AS HE CAN PROVIDE FOR YOU.
IF ONLY YOU WERE BORN IN AFGHAN OR YEMEN OR INDIA WHERE DOGS ARE TREATED BETTER THAN WOMEN YOU MIGHT CONSIDER THE IMPORTANCE OF FEMINISM.

I REPEAT TODAY THAT MEN ARE NOT THE PROBLEM OF FEMINISM.. WHEN MEN HEAR ABOUT THE SUBJECT THEY WANT TO IMMEDIATELY DISMISS IT BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE MAN-HATING AND ANNIHILATION OF THE ENTIRE MALE FOLKS DUE TO THE WAY MANY IRRESPONSIBLE WOMEN HANDLE MATTERS ONLINE.
WOMEN THEMSELVES SUCH AS THIS ONE AND OTHER ENEMIES OF POSITIVE CHANGE ARE THE PROBLEM. AND FEMINISM CAN NEVER BE FULLY ACHIEVED UNTIL SUCH WOMEN ARE TERMINATED, OR COME TO THEIR SENSES.

Feminism has come to stay!!! You better die now because it will stay for so Long!!!! Jesus Christ who is the symbol of Christianity never condemned women. He had Friends like Mary and Marta. Show me that portion of the Bible Jesus or God condemned women. Una never see anything. You people will cry this feminist cry till eternity. After condemning it, come and stop it!!

It's a question because people tend to read one part and forgot the other. A directive on relationship between Christ and the Church and by extension how Christian households should be run was given. It was no plan to enslaved anyone. It's my view that what was asked of the men is even tougher than that of the women. People are not interested in the bare word of God instead to use it to promote or support their ideologies.

Love is not enough or sufficient in a marriage. Trust, infact is number one criteria or value for a successful marriage. Then comes patience, compromise, understanding and tolerance. Love is the least of them all, but get to be placed first. Little wonder, marriages crumble.

He is very wrong. You can be a Christian and still be a feminist. Feminism is different from extreme feminism that some practise.
It's because of feminists that women can vote, women can drive, women are in executive roles and women can be leaders.

Still a long way to to for women especially in Northern Nigeria. Women are still being marginalized a lot in Nigeria.

Our girls need to be taught that they can be CEOs, they can be confident women who don't open their legs for every dog. They can earn a lot and still not disrespect their spouses.

It's not all these Twitter feminism about stupid things like kneeling down for a few seconds during your traditional marriage, opening doors and irrelevant crap.



Good one

That's why I always say... Women should fight for equity and never equality.

The bible is an historical book written by men and still in the bible it's recorded that God created all human equally and we are equally in his eyes,

Corinthians,Colossians are all Paul bloody opinion not God opinion,
how do you expect your wife to love and cherish when you don't love and cherish and her, for it's said if you plant harsh and hatred you reap harsh and hatred but if you plant love and understanding surely you will reap love ans understanding.
