How do I write to Loose Women?

How to write an argumentative essay about Yoruba women?

• I'm writing an argumentative research paper on Yoruba women. I want to do something on women being inferior to men based on their cultural tradations but I don't know how to formulate that into a thesis that could be argued. Please help.

• Answer:

  If you want to talk about female subjugation - the Yoruba are a really bad place to start. Yoruba women have a clearly defined role in their society, but not just as housemakers (they tend to manage the house expenses independently, have almost total control of childcare and education issues, and even a strong public identity through their churchwork). The Hausa keep their women down much more than the Yoruba do. If you are determined to work on the Yoruba you will need to argue that a woman's independence is somehow less valuable than a man's. I lived in Yoruba societies for several years. You would find it hard to convince me of that.
