3. "i'm responding this way b/c it's a stupid question" In response to In response to 2 Fri Aug-14-15 10:46 AM by woe.is.me.
(no disrespect to you at all, i'm being objective)
are there women on an entire continent that are looked down upon? absolutely.
there are women on every continent that are "looked down upon".
there have been female heads of state in africa there are also cultures (some, out of the thousands that are on the continent) where male children may take precedence over female ones in some circumstances.
my point is that this is too general a question to answer seriously.
to say that "____ in africa are _____." is generally inaccurate because africa is a huge place with millions of people who think and treat each other differently depending on where you are.
