Ilovenigeria: lol No way, Jose! Some men, Nigerian or otherwise take their role as head of household VERY seriously. Best to go with the flow - keeps down arguments. One thing though - they don't tolerate ANY smidgen of disrespect. If a woman thinks she's going to run them, she is sadly mistaken. Give this type of man utmost respect and he will return the same. To do otherwise, and you will find yourself kicked to the curb so quick, it will make your head spin! |

Missy89: Ite. I'm the original black man, and the rose that grew from concrete - so what do you expect? African history is very interesting...and since I got into it, in 2009 via my boy in Uni. It was the catalyst that moved me from the rowdy space I was in back then, to a different space that changed my mentality about what I needed to aspire to be. And like my source of inspiration. I absolutely love the great history and diversity of Africa and African people. Anyway, hip hop is the greatest genre of music ever...get into it, or be lost forever. Rap music is spiritual! |

Missy89: 1) Nah, you painted it black by saying it's "patriarchal" like other continents aren't mostly patriarchal. There are more women in position of power in Nigeria right now, than the UK for example. And I think Africa has two female presidents compared to only Angela Merkel in Europe - so I don't understand the need to always stigmatise Africa. Why not just talk about what you perceived as the wrong towards women, rather than bringing Africa/black (or in most cases black men like you lot do) into it? It's condescending. 2) You can't always blame the society for your own flaws. As far as I'm concerned, males and females are raised the same way on equal footing. So you have no excuse whatsoever not to be out there competing with males. In the west for example: the society expects every black guy to be obnoxious and inarticulate. That's the strereotype. So, should we now start using that as an excuse to start fitting into that inane stereotype? I don't know who the hell "Rita Dominic" is, and I'm not in a position to answer that. However, always endeavour to make the best out of yourself, and whatever opportunity you have - and stop playing the blame game. 3) I'm lost here. Can you expatiate further on the privilege disparities in post education you're alluding to? Women just need to start taking responsibilities for their inabilities to outsmart men. It's a woman's world like I always say. But you lot just don't understand the game, and the power you have. When you stop whinging, you will see the light. No one is holding you down. Get a career, and become an asset, not a liability. 3 Likes |

I agree, that's my take. Good relationships should be based on our ability to help each other out. |

Nice words from the op. But sha, it's impossible for me to marry a sitting duck for a wife. My ma had been into business b4 I was born and she still has huge aspirations . So what in hell will stop my wife from working? |

Missy89:As I read you say,1) power dictates those that have 2) You cannot succeed by working hard 3) The orientation of women is poor 4) Women find it difficult to excel 5) The society should empower women, cos men are all empowered. 6) Women are made to think only about marriage. Let me answer this six points: 1) You are right. 2) Nonsense, in fact, how can you gain power, when you lay idle. 3) Your story is like that of two people given 5 talents each with a clear instruction that they should trade with it. The first traded and got 5 more, the other didn't trade with his own, but decided to help the other cos he's her husband and that's what the society expects. When the merchant came back, he rebuked her for saying its the fault of society and said, I gave you five talents, I would have been happy if you made one more, but you decided to blame the society to justify your being idle. The merchant then collected his five talents and six from the husband and went away in fury. 4) That's a joke right? You mean success is easy to attain. 5) I can say it with confidence that society empowers more women than men. We are made to see women as fragile babies, who need care and attention. 6) I think procreation is our main objective and both men and women are pressured and even the pressure is more on men to invest their blood, in order to feed our grown up baby, who has refused to invest her talents. Your write up is that of hypocrisy, you have refused to accept that struggle is ingrained in Male's DNA, that caring for children and husband is marternal instinct and we shouldn't be outrightly blaimed for your woes. Only if you can put your legs in our shoes, and feel what we males feel, only if you can. 1 Like |

I posted on this forum fortnight ago during my wedding anniversary that no man should attempt to marry a lady who does nothing for a living. It is very dangerous and will not help the family to grow faster. When the man faces challenges at a point, his wife should be able t shoulder the family responsibilty pending the time things ll be stabilized for the man. I am talking from experience. |
