We are not at war with men. We just want to count!

"Several African societies reflect systems with ranging degrees of dual sex hierarchies in which men and women exist in parallel and complimentary positions and roles within the society." - Catherine Acholonu in her 1995 book, Motherism: The Afrocentric Alternative to Feminism ( A fall out from her experiences at the "Beijing Conference").

Happy International Women's Day!! As we celebrate, please remember that gender equality or generation equality is about partnership between women and men, complementarity between the sexes; as the wellbeing of both are equally important if we are to achieve the development we seek.

We are not at war with men. We just want to be heard. We need to count. But the way we say what we want to say matters. The way we do what we want to do matters.🤗😘
