Relationship101: Kudos to all the women (and men) that are standing up against domestic abuse. Africans have experienced a large dose of abuse (especially to the women) and we need to stand up against this devilish act. I lopve women. They are queens. They are strong, energetic, important and compassionate. Damn! Did I forget to mention that they are sexy? Your thread is not worthy to be on the front page. It is defacing Nairaland. God, by nature made man to be the head of the family. Man is like the chief executive of a family, and woman is the managing director. Each of them is very important in maintaining and sustaining a family. The man, endowed with strength and ability runs around and provides for the family, while the woman organizes the home and sees to the day to day running of the home. I do not in any way support abuse of women in marriages, but that does not give you the right to insult ministers of God that preach submission of women. The truth is that there cannot be a happy marriage if the woman can't submit to her husband. To reciprocate the submission, a man MUST love his wife. A man that loves his wife CANNOT lift his hand and beat her. So rather than discouraging women from submitting to their husbands, encourage men to love their wives genuinely. For a happy home is only built when the husband loves his wife and the wife submits to her husband. Ka Chineke mezie okwu. 5 Likes |

Yes I agree with the OP. Marriage is a partnership. Respect should be earned by both parties, not by virtue of birth. There is neither head nor tail. All men are equal, but roles may differ depending on agreement prior to any contract. 5 Likes |

Relationship101:if a woman doesn't need a head then she should stay single. its that simple. not get married first and start dragging rights with your head like you were forced to get married |

kmcutez: Yes I agree with the OP. Marriage is a partnership. Respect should be earned by both parties, not by virtue of birth. Coming from a typical Nigerian girl who expects her man to provide everything for her, the same bimbo who will want her man to pay her dowry and worship her. This is fuuucking lolsterics ! 5 Likes |

Re: Men Are NOT The HEAD Of The Family! Read My Reason! by shaybebaby(f): 2:24pm On Jul 27, 2014 |
thegoodone2: so u suppot op. u want to b control ur husband. pls. no Nigeria man will allow that.unless if u like single mother.I would not resort to the expletives he has used, not without provocation but yes, I agree with the op mostly. I do not want control, nor do I want to be controlled.I want a dialogue based on mutual respect and love and rationality. When that is demonstrated, I have no qualms about deferring to someone who I know would make decisions that I would probably make if in the same shoes. Trusting that he is and will do what is best for both of us because this would have been demonstrated in the past. But tell me " I get to decide because I am a man and therefore the head" and you will hear a very succinct " fvck off!" 4 Likes |

I can't even take a guy who talks like this seriously, it's either the OP is actually a female with a male monicker, a sissy or just trying to draw traffic to his stup*d blog by saying what some females want to hear. Your opinions are worth nothing, they're just a lazy man's way of consoling himself for his weakness and laziness. My father was the head of the family, I will be the head if my family, that I can guarantee. end of story!! Now how about you heed you own advice and go drown somewhere. 2 Likes |

Like or not@OP, women can never be equal to men. There can never be equality anywhere, even in the west, only equity is possible because that is the design of nature and it will continue like that. Agitating for women equality with men is a mere waste of time, advocate for equity. MAN IS THE GLORY OF GOD WHILE WOMAN IS THE GLORY OF MAN says the Holy book. Denying this fact is deviating into evil, e.g Lesbianism and Feminism! |

Did I forget to mention that they are sexy?Congratualtions, if only you can allow your wife or girlfriend rule your life It seems like women is all what you have. It seems like you allow your emotion out weigh your thinking. You see, women are good. There's nothing to worry about it. Unfortunately, it's not all women. I had an ex-girlfriend who whenever we are together, she does not want me to go out, perhaps go for something much more important, like going to work when i receive a sudden call. Meanwhile, I do not request her to leave her job and I make absolutely sure she's free from her duty before allowing her to come over. Above all, some women can be self-centered and as a result, detrimental to your progress in life. |

Whoever paid for the school fees of the o.p will for into river niger and the person who stayed at home to train him will go to hell... This is the most fooolish ideology i've ever come across. And just as your signature quote you're really an educated illiterate. You are a typical hypocrite and a narcissist... People like you are those who put confusion in peoples marriages just because yours failed... RELATIONSHIP101 my asszs, go and get a life B!tch.. |

INNOisBACK: Wow!!! I'm flattered, anyways, i didnt really read this thread, the initial write up bored me sort off, so i lost interest. Are u phobic to the topic we discussed that day?Nah man. Not phobic at all. I do not understand it but again can't understand why I am on the other side of the fence, I just am, was not a conscious choice and based on that, the same must apply with you. I didn't have to think about it and then go, " I'll choose this". Being there that day was an eye opener for me, seeing the reality of what I knew ( in my mind but not really given much thought to) and I was angered, very much so but also deeply upset at the unfairness of it all. I also felt very helpless in the face of the vitriol because where do begin to attempt to open people's hearts and minds. 1 Like |

I don't understand this OP at all. He clearly thought he would be given a thunderous ovation from the women and I'm happy to see; that didn't happen! I am female, and I will try to set him straight..hopefully. IT IS THIS KIND OF HARE-BRAINED THINKING THAT IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF DYSFUNCTIONALITY IN THE WORLD TODAY!! Hian! The man is the head...GET OVER IT!! Being the head has nothing to do with domestic abuse(that's another kettle of fish altogether)...its simply the way God wired it, for marriage to work as it was originally designed to. Even with this partnership theory, the woman should realise that there is a senior partner and junior partner. To wit: He should include her in decision-making, ask for her ideas and views..but ULTIMATELY he takes the decision. She may not like the end decision he's taken, but she's got to be submissive and support him not fight and buck him at every turn...there can be no two captains in one boat. Even when she knows she's right, a wise and submissive woman would quietly let him do it his way if that's what he wants...trust me, when his fingers get burnt, you may be certain he would not take your counsel so lightly again. That's wisdom. That's submission. That's true followership. I am a strong independent woman who knows what she wants; and is no-one's fool. BUT I most certainly do NOT want to be the head of my marriage, when I do get married! I do not want the responsibility(na yam?), and I most certainly do not want the conflict. The man is the head AND priest of the house. Which means that I will not follow a man who would leave me alone to tend the family prayer altar...that's HIS job. I'm a helper. Chikena. Life would be a lot simpler, and society a lot less dysfunctional if everyone stuck to their God-given roles. Being submissive does not make the woman a footmat, and to the men: knowing your wife should be submissive does not give you the right to treat her as a footmat. The bible asked you to love her, as christ loved you, and asked her to submit. If you love her, and truly show her that love, she even tries to outdo herself in submission, and when she does that, the man loves her even more. Its a lovely circle. Bottom-line, no woman should marry a man she cannot follow, respect and submit to...what's the point? Its not all about "love wan-tin-tin" Ladies, If you cannot submit to this person, if you do not TRULY respect him, don't even bother getting into it in the first place...cos all you may end up doing is trying to usurp his authority...and disrupt the order of things. 12 Likes |
