You deserve a statue for this statement.
Ladycewhy:

Lol

So the women of today who are in offices and markets are not groomed because they are not the "my Lord " type of women anymore?
Because for all I know women of today cna still cook ,clean ,take care of the kids, take care of the home and many even pay half the bills and some even more.


I think the problem is women of the past put all their afforts to groom and dolt over their daughters and left the boys to blend in after all " na man". The problem is men want wives like their mothers, the " suffer head " type of women who stayed and suffered and wore it like a badge of honor to prove to society they were virtuous.


Women today offer more in marriages and on the table ,the only difference is that the door to exit a marriage is now wider than it used to be and more women are choosing mental health and peace over bearing Mrs.

If he wants a woman to share his bills he should be ready to share her own. He will go to to market ,shop for food stuff of the house, take care and bathe the kids ,clean the house and cook

This is what western men who introduced bills sharing do, so if we must copy and deviate from the traditional setting we must copy everything.

If a woman is in the kitchen ,the man should be tending to the kids not feeling indifferent with remote in his hands.

Funny enough when Nigerian men marry white Ladies they adjust ,so na black women nor deserve better thing , because na only suffer head we Sabi abi? undecided

Foolish takes.... But I'll only reply number 3 since the other two are not even worth my time.

Now how many homes have you seen where the man is a widower but still singlehandedly raised all his children from when they were kids? The answer is none cuz when a man loses his wife the children gets seperated because men cannot just bear the brunt of working or husstling full time while also taking care of kids.

But look all around you, a woman will lose her husband , have a full time job and still raise all the children single handedly without having to ship the kids off to go stay with wicked relatives.

This is seen everyday in Nigeria unless you wanna be dishonest with yourself.

It was never about money. Try to be more perceptive when absorbing the information received. RedPill preaches male superiority, that the man must truly be the head of the house-hold and lord over his wife and children, as directed in the bible. The basis of that primacy is the mans ability to provide for the family. What the woman brings to the table is the children, homekeeping and those things mentioned in my previous response to your post. I am not surprised thought that you think that RedPill is about money.

Let's talk about propensity. How many of the variables you mentioned above is a daily survival mechanism?

They economist once talked about the hierarchy of needs. According to them, some needs are higher than others. That as humans, we tend to put some variables more than others. Understand where I am coming from, the human angle and not gender.

Offerings, both natural and artificial are outweighed by the most important. You yourself apply that daily in your routines.

I just read up some of your comments on this thread. And I can say that sadly, we're not on the same page. You sound heavy hearted for some reasons bitter.

You need to clear your mind.
Shalom.
Lol. You typed some incredibly vague words that have little to nothing to do with the topic at hand then proceeded to call the person you’ve been having a mature enjoyable debate with bitter despite having displayed no bitterness towards you because you suddenly don’t know how else to respond. Cringeworthy behavior and very predictable too. To a man, when a woman has enough in her mouth to converse about societal anomalies, she is either too passionate about the topic or bothered.

I agree with your point but there are ways to get them across without feeling flustered and resorting to gaslighting.

They also adjust when they meet a black well to do or rich partner. If he knew she contributed half the foodstuff for what she was cooking in the kitchen, he would not be as relaxed caressing his remote. The problem here is Nigerian women and their financial situations. Whoever has the finances has the bigger bargaining power. That’s why white men had to start respecting women too, because they started earning more. Merely 60years ago, it was the same with them. Relegated to housework and disrespected on all fronts. Nigerian men do as they like because they know their women have nothing without them, some wives even have nowhere to go if they are kicked out.
An adult male or female has to have the financial capability to be in a relationship or you will become the underdog no matter the amount of other qualities. If you like have ten PHDs or win a Nobel prize. Money still rules our daily affairs and whoever wields has the power.

Okay
I accused him of launching an annoying personal attack in an amicable debate when it had nothing to with the topic at hand. We had no prior discussion and I him mentioned solely for that purpose. I know I might have typed what partially fluent English speakers might mistake to be a personal attack but telling someone his behavior is cringeworthy is not a personal attack even if his statement called for one. He called her bitter, now that’s a personal attack. That was convenient for you to ignore and stand in his defense when you don’t have all the facts and ignore completely what led to my mention?
I could have typed way worse and was quite objective in my opinion so, I think it’s best you let it alone.

Hello dear. I want you to understand that I did not call her a "bitter" person. My statement was a reflection of her previous comments.

Why conversing with her, I decided to read some, if not all her previous comments with other people. Hence, my statement. If you see what I typed, you'll see that I wrote that "you sounded heavy hearted, and for some reasons, bitter".

I was only insinuating. I didn't say "You're heavy hearted" or "you're bitter". I also said that to understand if we're on the same page.

Because, it wouldn't be adequate to be having such kinda conversation when someone's mind is already wrapped.

Nigeria never practiced male superiority like the West. Not even half of what they did to their women. Look at them now.

Wives were just mere breeding vessels. Concubines have power over a man, respect than his wife. Na concubine give una your country name.

It's a matter of time boy. What u sow, you must reap. For all the atrocities committed against women in the form of male superiority, una go receive am back.
I always tell people to study history.

Some tribes have gone far in civilization and equality before Britain came in with divide and rule, gender nonsense. In early days, at least in my culture, women are forces to be reckoned with.
Christianity came with the English and we start hearing submission up and down.
Religious leaders escalated it to this level.

But I'm happy things are turning around else men won't be complaining every minute.

And by the way, which tribes were you refering to that supposedly had "gone far in civilization and equality"? As I mentioned earlier, you must hail from some back-water swamp land, these are the only sorts of places where women have power.

Ladycewhy your hate for men won't get you to anywhere!

it seems you are from a broken home that is why you seek attention using ferminism. It is sad, your mental state is deteroiting slow!



now to your topic, a man brings more than money to the table.

identity: women identity is somehow tied to a man and it gives you a sense of worth. A woman either bear her father's or husband name, and when your geneology is traced it is through your dad

durability: man stand the test of time. Reason a woman age like milk and men like wine

creativity: men have been inventors and innovators, even the pad you wear was invented by a man. So women havent invent anything cos they 've got limited mind!


and yes men have authority over women becos nature has made it so. What is the ratio of women in political positions,public offices and companies compared to men?

stop inciting women against men cos there is only one loser....

Obviously, they offer us protection from their fellow men.

They are so close. So close to realizing that they are the problem . But they run face-first smack into the point and still somehow miss it entirely.
I’ve never seen such a phenomenon in my life grin

Like Why would we need protection if y’all behaved yourselves?

And even though they say that, it’s not even true. How many of them call out abusive men? How many prioritize building a society where women don’t have to hide pepper spray in their purses? How many speak up against violence towards women instead of justifying it? I could go on and on. Many may not actively participate in creating unsafe spaces for women but they tolerate the ones who do. And attack the women who confront the dangerous ones. So they are protecting no one.

Protection indeed.

They deliberately created a world that’s unsafe for women and in return we have to submit to them so that they can protect us from the problems they cause.
They call it "bro code". grin grin.
