No need for plenty talk. All the men saying they can't assist with housework should also not expect any type of financial assistance from their wives. No matter how dire your need for money is and no matter how urgently money is needed in the house, you should never think of asking your wife for help since you have refused to help her out in the house. See them making noise about how they go to work and earn money as if women don't also work. 4 Likes 1 Share |

JallowBah:Look, if i don't have the means to act as a man should, i won't get married in the first place. Knowing fully well that in marriage, certain demands are required. And if by chance i lose my job during the marriage, i do not expect that it would be right for you to ask me to take up chores because you're the one temporarily paying the bills. I expect you to help me get back up and continue to do my duty as a man rather than demeaning me to such level as chores. |

Michky: Why won't you open your dirty mouth in public. I don't blame you. You can talk your rubbish because Money has ensured a level playing field for both gender. If it was those days where you had to hunt where lions reside, am sure women would gladly stay home and cook. Money makes it all easy doesn't it? thats a different topic on its own which might read ABUSE OF THE PHRASE WOMEN ENPOWERMENT those are abuses that come out with changes, i am male 1 Like |

[CHocolaTE:Are you giving conditions for your marriage? If he won't do house work, you won't give him a dime. Right? I see your marriage heading for the walls soon. Guaranteed! You've gotten it all twisted. Woman is supposed to be helping MAN in marriage. Not the other way around. |

[CHocolaTE: Are you okay upstairs at all? When has it been a crime to comment here ? you should kuku do rota and sit him down with a cane to delegate chores to him, if you're having a hard time with your hubby doing house chores , get yourselves Ekaette since both of you 'contribute' to your family purse!

its funny. Here in america, nigerian women are dealing with their husbands. The husbands do most of the chores. All these women do is to divorce the man and jump to another man to acquire their money. Its a rampant issue nw with nigerian couples in america |

jidegirl12:Honestly, that's what really bothers me. Man says he's not interested in chores, these feminists are still insisting that no one else must do it but the man. I don't think these people are okay in the head at all. What is really the problem with ekaete by the way? Must the man do it compulsorily because the woman says so? Wierd. Thanks Jare Jidegirl. |

Do I think men should help more around the house?YES!!!is it enough to make trouble about??A CAPITAL NO.Do your best and carryover the rest,if your hubby helps,FINE!!!if he doesn't,Let it be.This is Marrafackin Africa!!!! Some really will love to help but get too lazy to do house chores.It bores most to tears and dirt doesn't bother a lot guys. @Chocolate,don't let this chores thing be a hitch to your marital bliss,get a househelp if chores really bother you that much. |

You see, this is what reversing gender roles leads to. Women want to take on hard tasks like the men. Anyway it's each to their own. Someone already mentioned why we have women doing house-chores. But now that you guys want to become "career women", In all honesty, things have to change. Again each to their own. Why should one marry a "loru-loru" wife like himself and not help her with the household chores? That is a tad irresponsible. AFAIC, I don't intend marrying from my profession. She's a Queen and neednt work her a$$ off. I prefer teachers, university lecturers. Anyone with an easy schedule. Man and wife should not both be away from the children/home at the same time. Who'll take charge? I don't want me some derelicts. Ofcourse I intend to help as frequently as possible albeit, without being forced. Each to their own. |

Can women stop complaining for once? Back in those days our mothers go to farm, do hard jobs then come back to cook with firewood we know all the stress in that, they have to pound yams then wash cloths with hands, fetching water was from the wells or they go some distance to fetch it. These days our ladies spend their youth days going from one eatery to the other, they head to dry-cleaners even when they have washing machines, the tap is right in front of you so no stress of finding water, the gas burner is there no more firewood headache, the vacuum cleaner is there yet they are too lazy to use it, blender rather than grinding stones, semo and poundo yam rather than pounding with morta, even dish washers.......If i hear say housework is hard again for a married woman I go slap the person mouth. 1 Like |

Michky: If you think helping your wife occasionally with house chores is a thing of weakness, then you are a fool. How many years have you been married? You are one of those men that think that women are beasts of burden who must be made to work until they drop. Wicked men everywhere. Fact is many of these lazy men who are hiding behind women must do ALL the housework are men whose parents had househelps and all do everything in the house. In my house growing up, there was only one female: my mum. There came a time when she was sick and endured a very lengthy spell in hospital. Now tell me, you wicked man, if you were my dad then, would you wake her from her hospital bed to copme and cook, do your dishes, wash your clothes, clean your house, etc while you just go to work, then come back and hit the beer parlour to watch Champions League match, then come home to demand your food? What nonsense! Marriage is a joint venture covenant. The man is the senior partner and the wife is the junior partner. There is nothing that says the senior partner cannot help a junior partner out with things once in a while. All this is a product of our wicked culture that sees women as property and not as human beings. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Dear CHocolaTE, Helping my wife with housework I can never be the problem between us, but it is for her not taking advantage of my assisting her duties, u know most women will like to take the advantage of helping them, they will always want the man to continuing every day. I will always love to help my wife if she deserve to help. |

Ur hussy doesn't have to help manually, he could as well get you: a. washing machine b. Dish washer c. Vacuum cleaner d. Deep freezer e. Microwave oven f. Gas cooker with timer g. Blender with timer h. Rice cooker i. Deep frier with timer j. Fruit mixer with timer k. Yam pounder with timer l. electric kettle with alarm j. Any other gadget The unfortunate thing is that after getting all these gadgets, she'll still complain that u don't help her. I don't know how to cook and i once tried to help with the stew and the whole thing got burnt. I got the nagging of my life. I don't plan to attempt any chore again anytime soon. Let the gadgets do their work. I hope they invent a beans cooker with remote control soon. I wonder why vacuum cleaners don't come with pre-programmable touch screen interfaces. 1 Like |

lojik: Ur hussy doesn't have to help manually, he could as well get you: The left-outs are the only things we have.. And he helps. I do not like rice being cooked in these machines, neither does he. All the machines that cook for you are..blah. I did not know how to cook african food when I met my husband, and for the first 3-4 months I burned it half the time. And if I did not burn it, there was too much spice, not enough spice, not cooked enough, cooked too much, etc, etc. But I learned.. And there are small vacuum-cleaners that are like robots; they run around the house themself. Very strange to look at, and I never tried it myself, so I have no idea how good they work. Damn expensive as well. 1 Like |
