kandiikane: Wait ooo! Before we go on to anyother thing: Scratch 9-2. I meant an early time. Ko to pa mi Of course it is. But because society encourages women to take less time demanding jobs, she spends more time with the children. More so, her nature/physiology is perfect for the task. If you look back well I'm sure you'll recall you spent more time with mum than dad and she practically brought you up single handedly. That's the strength of a woman. Dad should only come in once a while. Kandi |

seunajia: I'm LMAOing here I say that is bullshyt! 'Gender roles' is nothing but a societal construction in which to oppress women. Two gay men or women can bring up great children if not better than someone from the so-called 'gender role' family. What are you driving at. That is an obvious aberration Kandi. You are dictating and trying to tell me what women should be and shouldn't be. Who are you? Oh, yes! A man. That's how gender roles were constructed in the first place. Men! Roles don't need to be forced. They are like norms, you're immediately seen as an outcast if you go against them and appropriate sanctions applied. See, what I mean? You are dictating to me again what I should be doing. My role is to take care of my spouse? Is that what I was born to do? To look after a man? Erm, what about his role? Explain to me, if my role is to take care of him what is his role? Norms, well you are seeing aren't you? The so-called 'norms' of what a women should be are being broken because women feel and know who and what they are as individuals not classed in roles. It's foreign to an extent even in the west. It gained prominence in America in the 60s. Women had led happy lives and had been successful before this time. Taking up roles just to prove: "what a woman can do..." is BS. It's not a competition dammit! Now, this is what you call bullshyt to the highest level. You think if women were absolutely happy with how they were, we would have the suffragettes or the feminist movement? So, women were happy being told what they could be, where they could work, told all they are best at is sitting at home giving birth every year, no contraception, no voting, being seen as evil for mastur..bating or having an orgaasms, etc? Are you serious? The problem stems from here, women abandoning their roles (which cannot be over emphasised) for careers leave gaps in the home! It's ☺ķªª¥ for women to work, no doubt, but when they have to juggle or abandon entirely their roles in the home, then you'll have problems. I'm sorry but which case study did you do to come up with all of this? Again you list all of this where is the husband? Where is the man? Sleeping? Come off this, majority of women who may be working more than normal are those without the man there helping or those breaking their necks to make sure their children have the best in life. Many of these parents will be single parents. Husbands or partners ran away because they do not want to step up to the plate and do anything because to them, the women should be doing everything. Why would you wanna take up so much? Money? Do you prefer money to your family's well-being? Would you rather be rich than have responsible children? Absentee parents don't raise responsible children!What in God's name are you on about? Again, which case study did you do which shows that a mother who works completely abandons her children? Again, I ask where is the father in all of this? What is he doing? The lack of culinary skills is usually a pointer to major flaws in upbringing. If a woman/man doesn't know how to cook, an example is the OP's gf, then you should ask what she/he did with her/his youth.Right, so who are we talking about here man or woman? He/she? I guess to you a woman should be spending her youth in the kitchen right? This is just an avenue for "mama put", house-maids and other women to destroy your relationship. Take your spouses for granted and other people would declare them wanted! It's your choiceAgain with these cliques and stereotypes! How many househelps have you seen or met who have taken the husbands away from the wives? Touche! There is no big deal in your spouse helping himself in your absence. Good parents bring-up their children to be responsible people who are not self-centred and egocentric. Good parents teach both of the sexes household chores. I cook well today kudos to this kind of upbringing --home training.What about in my presence. He can't cook in my presence? Why? I'm tired of repeating myself. Your mum was able to bring you and your siblings up because she was trained to do so. If she was trained to "take care of herself" we probably won't be having this discussion!Don't twist things. There is a difference. The women who are taught how to cook for husbands they are yet to see are the ones who tend to have limited capabilities. They are the ones who see everything in black and white. They do not not see what they can achieve as individuals instead they see themselves as women with 'gender roles'. They are the sames ones who will come to nairaland crying that they are yet to have husbands because their mother told them they will have one by so, so and so time even learning to cook for him. When I made that comment about learning for yourself first, it's more about the mentality instilled in a child rather than the cooking. These women are brought up with words like "as a woman, you should do this for the man, you should act like this for the man because he's a man." This is how they allow men to useless them anyhow and treat them anyhow because of the mentality they were brought up with. The same gender roles which allow the man to marry more than 2 wives because with gender roles, a man is superior and the woman is inferior. There is no big deal:Again, I ask what is wrong with the man cooking in my presence? There should be no 'when' in household chores. Unless, there is a maid to do them for both to lay like kings without doing anything then the household chores should be done by both. Helping eachother. Each doing something to help keep the house intact, not having the husband or partner sleeping his lazy azz off whilst the woman slaves when it could be made quicker if both of them join forces to maintain the household both can rest. A case where the woman has a 9-2, instead of the more rigorous 9-5 or higher is ideal. She'll have enough time to see, guide, correct and bring-up her kids properly. But in a case when dad and mum both leave at 6am and return 11pm/12 and their wards are left in the care of house-maids or neighbours. Kandi? I rest my case! [/quote] In which reality do we have both partners working 18 or so hours a day? Come on, na! Unless both are doing the exact same job then it's rare. Even if that's the case, forget the kids in this matter because it's unlikely. which of them will even have the time to even eat at that time of the day after a longazz day at work? All they'll be thinking about is their bed. Realistically, either the both come home around the same time or one comes earlier and this could be either the man or woman. Now, if he's hungry are you going to tell him to wait for the woman to come play her so-called gender role? Plus, are you going to expect her to cook a meal everyday after work? If so? What's the point of the fridge? |

seunajia: Who are you, jor. You seem to know me more than I first thought. Abegi, it's the same uselessness I was talking about. A man leaving his responsibilities because he feels like the woman should be the one doing everything, including bringing up the children. It takes two to tango, my friend. |

Hmm!! "Abroad" had indeed coagulated the thinking cavity of a lot of Nigerians. @OP,my brother there's nothing much you can do at this moment since she's your fiancee. I am not part of the people who feel that cooking/catering for the family isn't the duty of the wife. I strongly believe every woman who desires to raise kids must learn to cook. That said,you could get one "ekaette" to handle that aspect when you guys get married,maybe madam will see reasons to intensify her cooking classes. OR you could get an "Okon" and to do wonders in your kitchen. Better still,you can decide to wear the apron and hit the kitchen whenever hunger strikes. The choice is yours. |

I wouldnt marry a woman just because she knows how to cook, and i wouldnt dismiss a good woman just because she lacks currinaly abilities either. I belive dia r stronger things dat can make or destroy a marriage,such as; infidelity, wicked spouse, verbally abusive spouse, dirtiness, 2much gossip, being disrepectful and so on. Now dis ones r usually inborn in a persons character and is hard to change. You dont hav a case if ur woman passes all dis test and its just in d kitchen dat she failed which can still be remedied, just get her cook book or get a private tutor to teach and practicalize wit her, i bet u in less than 2weeks she wil bcom an italian cheff. 1 Like |

Shaw007: And this Ppl advising him 2 do the cooking. . .this is Africa not austria abeg!! How can a a man be in d kitchen making African chop while d wife sits at d parlour watching hannah montanna!!wwoooow!! What a scene, well i hope it dos'nt get to that. But you can teach her for 2 or 3 month, cooking is not dat difficult and watch her for sometimes if she does not improve, my friend run fast because man's stomac is d way to his heart. I don't think any girl who does know how to cook will know how to do any domestic work cos cooking is what make ladies happy most out of all domestic work. |

So, women were happy being told what they could be, where they could work, told all they are best at is sitting at home giving birth every year, no contraception, no voting, being seen as evil for mastur..bating or having an orgaasms, etc? Oppress women? The current lifestyle that you feminists are pushing is even more oppressive! You guys now take up roles that make it difficult to live well due to the pressures on both fronts. If women were really "suffering" as you feminists want us to believe, how come we had women leaders as: The Queen in England, Nerfertiti and Cleopatra of Egypt? Great influential ones as Aisha(RA) Wife of the Prophet Muhammed(SAW), Mary-Macdarlene, Mother Theresa, Mary Slessor? etc. And ordinary people who were great Doctors, teachers, Novelist, etc? Stop planting hate and spreading falsehood, Stop teaching our daughters against us. Everything is not a competition, no one is witch-hunting you. The oppression is just a figment of your imagination. No one has said women should remain entirely at home or not vote and ish. Even the traditional African women were traders and not confined to the house. They just had flexible schedules which allowed them be good, present mothers. Of course the society suffers for it! We're actually seeing/feeling such effects right now only if you have the discerning eye. Again with these cliques and stereotypes! How many househelps have you seen or met who have taken the husbands away from the wives?  Again you know this is not true. Stop deceiving yourselves. The effects of your feminist views have caused enough havoc already. All you just want to prove: "What a man can do?" Is that it? Is that all? I have tackled the rest of your quotes earlier. You are just grabbing on straws! *Kandi love? Can I have a cup of coffee, please?* |

Atleast she is trying to cook. It is obvious she wants to learn. Just keep encouraging her. And you don't have to eat everything she cooks until she gets it right. Just an advice. |
