STRICT ADVICE FOR LADIES!



Don’t command your partner like a child and stop acting like a goliath!  Some ladies find it difficult to get suitors simply because they are too Authoritative and Domineering?

I bet you, no guy will come near such ladies except they want to marry half-baked guys (Mumu).  An average man naturally carries ego; they always like to be respected, honoured and worshiped, acting in full capacity as a man even when there is nothing to show for it. Apology to men!

Though I advocate Gender Equality but the campaign, especially in marriage is ‘Complementing’ not ‘Competing’. My dream is to raise a new generation of women who can take their stand, discover their purpose, build their potential, assume leadership positions and participate in the development process; females who will be the best in their chosen careers as well as complementing their male counterparts.

However, if the woman is becoming uncontrollable, then the campaign is no more Gender Equality. Even if you are older than him, more educated than him, richer and wealthier than him, influential and popular than him, have larger experience and exposure than him, all these are no proof to be authoritative.

Statistically, the number of single ladies and divorcee increases every day and this could be traceable to females’ superiority and authoritativeness in relationship. Listen to this, you may never find a loving guy to submit to but you will surely meet a guy who will love you if you submit to him. Your duty is to Submit and his responsibility is to Love. The fact that you finish from the same school, the same department at the same time, work in the same organization, earn the same salary is no basis to disrespect him.

Have a fulfilling relationship!

MORE THAN 400 COPIES GIVEN OUT FREELY



THE HORSEWOMAN by Teniola Kehinde was written to bring out the BEST in you and for this reason together with other notable factors, I made up my mind to give out the first print FREELY.  As such, I am using this medium to say A BIG SORRY to those who have requested but have not gotten.  This is due to limited copies available.  Based on the mandate to bring out the YOU in you, I am presently working on how you will get the soft copy (e-book) but before this is ready, you can join www.facebook.com/groups/youngpaths for more about the book together with other purpose discovery messages.
 
Far above achieving Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), THE HORSEWOMAN is a catalyst for individual emancipation, community integration and national transformation.

Discover the YOU in you!
