HOW NOT TO BE A FEMINIST

How not to be a feminist 9/24/2015 10:13 AM Feminism can be said to be a doctrine advocating social, political and all other rights of women it could also mean an organized movement for the attainment of such rights. I believe in feminism as a movement, I also believe that women should be given equal rights and opportunity in every aspect of life but you know just as there are extremists in religion, there is also extremism in feminism it is therefore advisable for women to apply moderation in the pursuit of their rights as feminists. Feminism could be extremely problematic if it is aimed at putting down the male folk by making every woman see the male folk as an enemy and a threat to the success of the female. Too much feminism could turn out to be arrant stupidity, feminism should be all about fighting for the rights of women not fighting with the male folk or else feminists will be seen as bitter women who are filled with so much hatred. What are you dragging so hard t...

Kylie Jenner allegedly made Tyga cancel his Brazillian concert out of jealousy

Image
  Brazilian concert promoters have claimed that Tyga cancelled his recent string of shows because of girlfriend Kylie Jenner. Tyga who was due to perform his first show on September 24th informed promoters that he wasn’t going to make it. One tour promoter said: "A rep told us he would not be coming to Brazil for his shows because he was stopped by his current girlfriend, media personality and socialite Kylie Jenner. "We are very upset in finding out an artist lacks the professionalism and the love for Brazilian fans, and allows something personal to interfere with his work schedule.” According to reports the rapper might now have to fork out $400,000 for breaching his contract as he was already paid for the shows and all accommodation and flights had been booked. His Brazilian fans speculated that the reason he pulled out was because Kylie was worried about all the Brazilian beauties he would be surrounded by.

Ohio Police are investigating the death of an 8-month-old boy who was found dead in a car at a Walmart parking lot here Wednesday. According to the Macedonia Police Department, a parent or guardian drove the family's four children to a day care center at around 8 a.m. Three of the children got out of the car at the day care, but the 8-month-old was left in a car seat. Three to four hours later, the child’s grandmother drove the vehicle to her job at Walmart. The woman reportedly did not look in the back of the vehicle and did not see the baby. Around 5:30 p.m., the baby's mother called the grandmother to say that she couldn't find the baby. When the grandmother went out to the parking lot to check the vehicle, she found the baby dead. A portion of the parking lot was closed Wednesday night while police searched the vehicle at the scene. The car was towed shortly after 8 p.m., and the parking lot reopened.

Carlisle, who recently graduated after studying philosophy, is said to have become “jealous” of Michaud and consequently grabbed a knife off a nearby nightstand before wounding Michaud in his upper throat.
