Guys, pamper ur wives. No when to draw d line btw this mother and wife comparism. Its getting out of hand.

MadCow1:
Yes o!!



Infact... I am in the middle of one serious matter.

Imagine a Man who has the nerve to beat his 7plus month pregnant wife, bundle her into a Car and drives so bad that he gets involved in an accident with her seated in front with no seatbelts on..


Now.. To blow your mind even further, the woman says; "He beats me because that is a weakness he has'.. And against all advice, she has gone back to be with the same animal..


Many people would call her a Good wife.. I call her an emotionally damaged female.

They call it " endurance " even when dating they " test" them the one who " endures" beating, cheating and hitting most are the " good wife materials " the kind of things our sisters decide is standard these days

Na wa.

Some men really think like this. I know a man who says that the more a woman takes, the more she loves her man.
And her well-being is less important than his ego being stroked.

I am sure that these men are not aware of the fact that a mentally healthy and stable woman will not let anyone mistreat her, no matter how much she loves the person.

aisha2:


My apologies for the previous reference. However, i beg to differ, i am not talking about suffering people i have seen men who will buy the latest gadgets yet hold on to archaic views even when their wives can afford it themselves the women have to do strong head and buy the items themselves and meet strong resistance from their husbands who insist of doing it the local way.

I respect hard work so saying i look on suffering is not what am doing

whatever works for each household.

washing machine did not use to be a staple in nigeria- its a recent appliance so of course not everyone will be used to it.

personally, i prefer washing clothes by hand if the laundry is not too much. Back home in nigeria it was fun.

and drying the clothes in fresh air outside is also good.

However, one must adapt with the times hence most nigerians do their laundry via machine which btw is configured for lord knows what, not only washing.

although it seems nigeria has hand or battery powered washers?

as for yam pounder- the one pounded by hand tastes better.

My own is the women who accept this. I may have no control over how you decide to treat me but i can certainly decide if i am going to accept it. I once caught an ex with a babe he sent her home while apologising to ne, no gree me go yet she kept calling to beg, beg for what na God know, he was cheating on her too, sent her away yet she was begging and declaring love.

Ole you wan steal my presidency

Must these tales be recycled all to denigrate men?


As has been correctly noted, washing mc is penetrating gradually.

In less than 5 years, it will be a household staple

Domestic abuse is to be condemned irrespective of gender

But it has go go down to male bashing....OK

NL .....bashing naija men since 1960

In this case, it is the husbands that will be bashed if necessary

Besides no husband bashing, just stating facts.

Nice comment man..

what exactly gives people the right to bash other people's homes (and decisions) for no valid reason?

idleness or something else?

the op was very militant on her epidural thread, i was wondering, is she fighting somebody or what?

so anyone who does not follow your own choices and lifestyle is your enemy? That's a very freakish way of thinking.

just saying.

some nl females do get ahead of themselves, the site makes people feel on top of the world.

And my sisters keep falling for this circle of endless banter.

Nashville:
Not sure why you have created this thread. Is this supposed to be another man bashing thread or are you mocking the suffering of Nigerians in general. Do you really feel the average Nigerian family can very easily afford these gadgets.

There are lots of people who can afford to buy these but I'm not sure they are the majority of Nigerians. You need to travel round Nigeria more.

Lastly, a woman can also buy these things herself, afterall women, and men are equally educated these days. So why wait for a man to buy for her?

Guilty conscience

I came here to read comments!

aisha2:

I no dey fall for anything o!

LOL!

I don't think wives are expected to suffer to be labelled "good". However, nobody loves a fair weather friend. After all, you would consider the friend who sticks to you through good and bad as being a true friend.

On technological advancements making women lazy, I don't know what circles you move in, but I don't think any husband will consider buying a washing machine, blender, gas cooker, microwave oven and such as making his wife lazy. Where the problem may arise is if the poor man can't afford those appliances and the wife refuses to do any chores because of that. She obviously knew his financial status before she married him, so why the fuss if it is obvious he can't afford some of these appliances. The two of you should just find a way to do your chores manually.

One thing I have learnt is that anything you do continuously for years and you don't get any benefit from it, can be easily assigned to someone else, you need to stop getting your sense of productivity and responsibility from chores. Washing , sweeping , cleaning even if done for 20 years is neither quantifiable or rewarding. We in Africa have being raised to believe these things are the most important whereas, having a job for 20 years would get you a promotion, job experience, skill development and so many other things.

Guilty conscience

Nah, he is a pretty decent guy, he just finds it hard to believe some men could be that mean to their families.

Op are u for real ?

5minsmadness:
And besides, watching TV doesn't make u lazy, its the amount of time you spend in front of it.

u correct joor

I beg you in the name of God.if your husband love pounded Yam,better pound it for him.even if you can't pound,learn how to pound.otherwise,there is one tiny lady eyeing your husband.

aisha2:
I have noticed that a woman is mostly expected to suffer before she is referred to as a good wife or sweet mother.
The story or picture of a sweet mother is usually one who suffers so much for so long.

One funny thing is that any technological innovation that aims to make womens life easier is strongly resisted and women who use these called lazy.

Funny thing those complaining will always rush technological gadgets like they phones they use to comment. They will use calculator instead of calculating with their brains yet it doesnt make them lazy. They will have the newest cars, instead of bicycles or treking like their likewise hard working fathers and ancestors. They will use clippers instead of razor as used by grandfathers, they will wear all the desinger wriat watches instead of standing under the sun to check time. They will eat processed food and meat unstead of going to farm for food, hunt for it or fish like their own fathers did.
Here are some most resisted technological innovations

1. Yam pounder: lazy women cant pound common yam for 4 people they cant pound. My mother used to pound for all 3 wives and 38 children without getting tired.

Gas cooker: lazy women, what happened to firewood. Our mothers went 10 kilometres to get firewood yet you want me to spend 4 k every month on gas.

Washing machine: how many clothes are you washing self? My mother had 9 kids and handwashed all their ckothes in the stream

Epidural: this is the height of laziness, if my mother can have 10 kids at home on her own why cant you push out 4 by yourself?

Dish washer: why did i marry you? What will you be doing while machine is washing plates for you?

women are no slaves.i biliv in freedom.i biliv in 50 50.
