Socrates’ Thinkery: WOMEN | By Monsuru Adeyemo.

Female archetypes are lionesses. They are heroines. They are warrior-queens when their husbands are warlords and they are empresses when their husbands reign as emperors.

Inherently, what rat is to cat is what power is to man. Meanwhile, behind the scene, women know how to use influence and wield power far more than men.

Of course, I have never doubted power of women. No any great leader has ever ruled, successfully, without their full backings.

Overtly, it has been, severally, argued that world is being ruled by patriarchy, but the reality is that, covertly, matriarchy is ruling the world.

Yes, throughout the ages, women’s prowess as gatekeepers when their hubbies, or sons, are on the thrones, can never be toyed with.

Irrespective of some people’s conservative views, throughout the history, especially, in politics, women know how to use influence. They know how to use power, and they do have more beneficiaries far more than their male counterparts, whenever they have grip of reins.

They know how to discover and empower. Their sincerity and commitments can easily be noticed, such as their angers. Meanwhile,”Kinin Kan Ba Ajao Je, Apa Re Gun Ju Itan Lo”. As superintelligent as women are, they usually tend to their emotions and egos. So, they rarely look beyond. Thus, a times, they play destructive roles, to enforce “neccessity of self preservation”. Therefore, never make attempt to endanger Amazons. Even, the youngest among them. They might fight back.

Egos and emotions! Hmmmmm. With these,”Opolopo Ile Ola Loti Di Ahoro”. These are women’s Achilles heels that need improvement; Because,”Okun Ki Ho Ruru Kawa Ruru Ati Wipe Pele Pele Lafi Npa Amun Kuru Pele”.

Simply, put women need to allow philosopher-queens in them to overcome the warrior-queens in them. A times, they should let go. It shows their strengths not weaknesses.

I repeat, women are, truly, powerful. History, books and elders’ experiences testify to this.”Fear who no fear women”.

Still, womenfolk remains great and I love the tigresses. “Eyin Iya Mojuba Ooo. Eyonun Yin Nin Anwa Ooo”.

Good morning, Africa.

Comrade Monsuru Adeyemo(Socrates), philosophically, reflecting in his “Thinkery”.
