Husband Scarcity (Articles from a female friend ) by Kenttylord(m): 11:08am On Sep 10, 2015 |
[b][/b]LADIES PLEASE READ DIS: My little thought on HUSBAND SCARCITY!!! This may not be the best time for me to write on this because of misinterpretations, but I can no longer resist the push. "Husband Scarcity" has become one of the challenges faced by many young girls today. If you go to prayer houses, majority of the intentions are prayer for a life partner. And this calls for concern. Casting our minds back to the time of our mothers and grandmothers, was there really much of a "Husband Scarcity" problem? Or, maybe there were more men than women then, or there was an adequate corresponding numbers of both genders. I don't think so. Maybe then, the women had values and were prepared to build a home and not park into a built home. Then, once a young man comes of age and can at least feed himself and his wife, he goes out in search of a wife and the woman really appreciates him and helps him to build a future. What am I really trying to say? We created what we now see as "Husband Scarcity" for ourselves. Today, the reverse is the case. Ask an average girl to define her dream husband; you get things like "he has to be tall, handsome, fair, and rich, own a house at least, and be presentable" and then she adds "God fearing" in order not to sound so worldly. Then, check the number of girls around you and the number of men that meet that standard, and you will see the problem. You hear girls say, "I cannot suffer in my father's house and then go and start suffering with a man." What a wonderful dream! What if from the beginning, you have everything you want and there is no suffering, and later in the marriage, the table turns around, then comes suffering? Will you run away? No one prays for suffering, but it is good to start small and end big, than start big and end small.The problem is that the description majority of girls give of their ideal man is virtually the same. When 50 girls want the same kind of man and the man that fits what they want is just 1 man, and the man can only pick one. Then, what becomes of 49 others? They simply start lamenting of "Husband Scarcity". Another irony of our time is that it is hard, due to the face of our economy to find a man who is of marriage age who possesses all those things these ladies want, legally (except those involved in Internet fraud); even the number of those in Internet fraud is not enough to match all those searching for already made husbands. If you look around, majority of the ladies of substance, of good value and virtue, who are ready to build a home with a man who has prospects, are married and not complaining of husband scarcity. The easiest way to find a husband now, is to change your view of who a husband is. A husband is that man God made and then saw that it may be hard for him to really actualize his purpose for making him, without a help mate and then made the woman and gave to him, and he felt complete and fulfilled. MARRIAGE IS NOT A POVERTY ALLEVIATION PROGRAM. It is a mission of building the family of God here on earth. For those who see marriage as a way out of poverty, it is a way into bondage. Women are HOME BUILDERS, not HOME WARMERS... DON'T CONFUSE A MAN'S PATH WITH HIS DESTINY. Where he is today, may only be a route to where God has destined him to be tomorrow. Another truth is that YOU MAY BE THE ONLY FAST MEANS TO THAT HIS DESTINATION. Join in alleviating "husband scarcity". PICK UP THE RIGHT VALUES. I am not saying that you should pick anyone that comes your way and talks of marriage, not all men are husband materials. What I am saying is that you should stop setting your standard on material acquisitions or physical appearances. Look beyond the physical. WHAT MAKES A MAN WHO HE IS, IS NOT WHAT HE OWNS OR HOW HE LOOKS, IT IS WHAT HE IS MADE UP OF. And that which he is made of is, most times, not seen with the physical eyes, only its effects can be seen. Marriage is a permanent thing. Whatever is seen is temporal and that which is not seen is permanent. Relax and go to God in prayer. God did not just make Eve for making sake; He made her for Adam's need. 2 Likes 1 Share |

i dnt get the point why women pray for a husband? why not pray for a better & stable future? my view is…if every lady will juz go out and focus on her career , try to achieve what she really want, build her own empire , enjoy those power thats in her..and when a man see all of these, only few brave men will get up ,make a move juz to be with a strong lady... 2 Likes |

KashyBaby: Are u for real here? Don't u remember it's the mens world.? To climb up to that height you envision , you'll have to grace few powerful men's bed. And it's not like you'll be at the summit anyway. You will want to dispute me I know but take it or leave it, that's reality. Btw, no sane African man with class and taste will run after your proud ass. Broke , needy men will. Believe! Most celeb's maRriages fail way too early cos the woman feels like I'm independent, He can't control me just like that ... ... How laughable!!! Mind you its not like I am discouraging or laughing at your chances af making it and turning your dreams to reality. All I'm saying is you needn't be over-ambitious and hyper at lust for power at it. Niggas 'conceive' that for dominance and no real man wants that kinda woman for a wife. God being the much fore-sighted being he is named man 'the HEAD' of the family. Don't respect that and have yourself to blame in the end Moreover, time dey go and the society we live in doesn't treat latecomers at marriage kindly . So, be mindful at your 'high standards' 3 Likes |

Sabrwahaqqo: u made me laugh…coz u think too little…put ur big head on the top and try to tighten up the loose screws on ur brain and dnt focus in Africa alone coz its not the only continent in this world…why not bring ur ass here abroad and see for urself what i am talking about... |

KashyBaby: Abroad, where is your Abroad? Syria Define your abroad and we'll rub minds on the anomalies in the genetic make-up of that society you live in if you mind. BTW, have you lost your identity already? Or are you not African? If you're not then I understand. If you are then am so sorry for you ... Moreover, I find it hard to relate with barking dogs, so, choke on the chill pill and talk like a sensible human being huh? You needn't be unnecessarily vengeful and irritating. Behave like the intellectual H.sapien that you are 3 Likes |

Sabrwahaqqo:LMAO Hahahahahahahahaha been observing you two and it's funny the girl or woman (with the mentality of a kid= that's the reason she came off as daft as she displayed ) thinks. Attention?!?!! it's so funny when I read people here typing about someone seeking their attention Hahahahahahahahaha, there's a reason for everything and I guess she has been oppressed directly or indirectly by a male figure (father issues or some kind ) that makes her power hungry. miss sometimes the way you respond says a lot about you, learn to be constructive and practice critical thinking before dishing opinion about things because it's going to be hard for you to be a boss of an "empire" with such attitude. Good day both of you kashyBaby 1 Like |

seriously...the girl(kachybaby) is not cultured. the girl just displayed how primitive she is. how would a sensitive,cultured,well mannered,disciplined gurl trade insults wit a man who's only tryin to put out d flaws in her opinion..No wonder,her type would struggle to get a husband cos would-be suitors would always dump her sorry ass when she finally show this attitudes. |
