And who is this one that can't read? Please don't quote me if you're not clever enough to understand my post please. I get highly irritated by stupidity.


And it is you who can read, right? SMH!!! Read thru the words you highlighted of Brown's post and tell me once more that it is you who is stupid enough for not understanding what he posted.

So all polygamous men are irresponsible? undecided

Will you recommend paternity leave for a polygamous man?

As at the time he posted..chinwem = many women.. cheesy...these hyperactive men sha. cheesy

Anyway, I think they also deserve it because it is quite stressful staying up all night with the mother and child and then going to work the following morning. But I think it shouldn't exceed 2wEeks if one of the grandmas and\or any other help is around.

If a man is granted paternity leave at work and all he does at home is to play games, read news papers and drive round the neighboorhood, he should be flogged back to work, no point adding to the poor woman's stress.

Thank you for pointing out what ileobatojo missed in Brown's post.

You can never know what it means to be a male same way you can never know what it means to be a female if you're not.
I am a father and a worker.A firm believer that I am supposed to be there always for my family.Whoever comes here to say "they dont knw if we need the leave" needs help and dont understand anything about family life.Ordinary malaria and an husband is admitted affects a responsible wife and to think that the man is having fun and its not affected from pregnancy to delivery is a joke.

This is the truth about how I think from 1975 most female children tend to think the world is out to punish them and deserve pity.They haved never stopped to think that maybe the males want to but were taught to be "men".
