Joan Orok, a Nigerian feminist on Facebook shares her view on procreation and how men should pay a woman for using her womb to have his children.
She opines that women should start charging money from men for the use of their womb in conceiving and delivering a baby because pregnancy puts the lives of the women at risk.
She asserts that women are valuable but do not know their worth and that is why they do men the favor of having children for them for free.
Using herself as an instance, she declares,
“….First, you should pay me for using my womb. Thats the starting point of the negotiation. Then we go to the next stage. You should pay me like a surrogate. Oh dear. you pay me monthly. If I give birth to the child. Then you pay me for successful birth. If I finish, You want the child to bear your name. then you pay me for that, else the child is bearing my name dear.”

Omolola Ishola: That’s right….. Marriage has been beneficiary to men all along , it’s time for a woman to benefit… She’s bringing your child to the world pay for it.
Nneka Okorie: So after birthing the child, he/she won’t be yours too? I hope you will drop the child for the man and use the door.
Godeeva Grafix: I love this. This is what ive prayed women should start adopting. There would be a vastly decreased rate of bandits leaving women to cater for their urchins. I pray this idea takes hold and trends.
