GENDER EQUALITY!!! I don't understand how a man could marry as many wives as he wants and these women will have routine/schedule on when to sleep with their husband... I have failed to understand why a man should have marital affairs out his matrimonial home all because he is a Man!!! Time has far gone when it is believed that a woman's education ends in kitchen.A woman being asked to leave official work to take care of the home and domestic chores and who in God's name told you domestic chores are meant for ladies alone?? Really annoying When a guy proudly tells me"I am not a kitchen fan, cooking is not really my thing" O dinma,"eating fan" until you meet someone like me.. I remembered Coz coming home around 12 midnight and was told to make eba for her bro who has been at home all day!! Gini di,what are you not telling me??😞 In Marima Baa's "so long a letter " A woman(Ramatoulaye) was abandoned by her husband for a second wife and She was left to cater for 9 children all alone. Imagine what she has to go through taking care of these children. Until this man died and She was subjected to some nonsense African rite of Mourning her husband,being dehumanized, not having to eat& bath, having her hair shaved, sitting on the floor and crying all day&night. The most interesting part of this story was Ramatoulaye rejection of being married to her husband's aged brother and Ramatoulaye's best friend buying her a car(Woman empowering Woman) My questions are why can't women be left to attain certain political heights,Why must they be dehumanized all in the name of "weaker vessels" Why can't these women empower themselves, Why should they always depend on the men? I think it is time we right the wrong of the men I never meant men being disrespected o bikokwa maka ikuwa anyi anya!! But sometimes men should consider the women nah.It shouldn't always be about the Men!! Thanks!! Eberechi Unique Uwakeme
