Why Are Nigerian Fathers Egoistic About Going To Take Food In The Kitchen? by Opioko: 1:38pm On Mar 16, 2015
So yesterday, I was alone with my dad at home, around 10 am, I was still in bed... The man walked all the way past the kitchen to my room woke me up from my beautiful sleep just to ask me to go get his food.... Which got me wondering... Why couldn't he just branch to the kitchen and grab his food?

Fathers and husbands are the heads of the home and they believe in being respected and honoured. They are kings in there homes, therefore people in that household need to forever respect them. They are not egoistic, it's the nature of commanding respect that is in them and get it they must. Some believe it belittle them to enter the kitchen while some believe it's disrespectful to their wives. Op, if u marry the previous generation husband in this new generation, u might do more. I have a friend that his wife dears not eat while he's eating, the wife sits till he finishes his food, gives him water anytime the needs arise, kneels to give him water to wash his hands after eating and even say thank u for eating. Anytime he's eating and the wife is in the kitchen, he will call her to come and give him water that is on the table where he's eating and the wife even eats in the kitchen and she doesn't complain. If it were u, wat will u do?I bet u dad is not as my him. Men are mathematics, once u're able to figure them out, u win.

Am sorry but that is just plain madness. Calling his wife to give him water on the table where he is eating. So he can't stretch his arms and do it himself.Is she his slave. Lol am sure those type of ladies who enjoy such are the ones who don't work and depend 100% on the man.

Lol!

That's men for you. Same with mine and my boss. In fact, they would need to change the TV station and the remote would be just there staring at them. Then he calls you from where you've been busy to come change a TV station?

Lol!

Well, I sometimes do it too, and unconsciously. Then after the act, I'll become aware. Its funny and even women do it too, though less noticeable than the men.

My dear when you get older you will understand why it is so.
You know how in the western world people talk of breakfast in bed.
It is a special service you render your parents, husband or children to let them know how much you love and regard them.

When you do it for our dad it feels his heart with joy. As he watches you he is blessing you. He is also remembering all his labour on earth and comforting himself that it was not in vain.

It is very symbolic giving your father food, then you are privileged. Many kids are not opportuned to have one to serve.
Please in future ask him when he needs his food do not wait for him to ask you to bring it. Take time out to serve him his good and give him water to drink and wash his hands. So you amass blessings for yourself.
Remember that a father never feels he is something special because he is being served by his child. He only feels that he is in safe hands when he grows old and fragile.

It is just superiority complex. Most men believe they are not equal with women hence they treat them as a subordinate or so.

Over the years I have come to understand that women are meant to be appreciated and treated with care. If you desire the best from your partner, then stick to the golden rule. We are all humans with dignity and self worth.

Whenever I am hungry and noticed madam is busy or positively occupied, will jejely find my way to the kitchen and fix something to eat. It doesn't make me less of a man.

Men, your wife (girlfriend, lady, fiancee, woman) is your better half and not your subordinate. The way you treat her determines the level of respect and love she will accord you. Treat her like a Queen and see her worshipping you like a King. Be passionate and considerate when it has to do with her. Remember, you chose her in the mist of many.

In summary, 85% of Nigerian men were given wrong generational orientation that women are inferior to them hence they are to serve them and be treated as inferior. This is a modern age, accord your partner all the respect she deserve and watch your home become heaven on earth!!!!

she loves it. The guys loves it too. The lady is not full housewife, she works. I can't just describe them. That's how it works for them.
