Guy if you have the money, buy the washing machine. BOTH of you will use it to wash YOUR clothes. Which kind question be this sef? I want to believe you're really serious and not trolling

Lazy ko strong ni. Getting a washing machine saves you both some quality time.

You're not right and you're being overly traditional.

buying a wshing machine is not only it. but also mentainance if you can't afford it don't. but if you can why not. we are in ara of making this easy through technology. don't tell me you drive your car since you want to be natural.

So, in the advanced world where everyone uses a washing machine to wash clothes, they are lazy? Do you know how strenuous it is to wash clothes with the hands? Do you know washing clothes with the hands causes back ache? Why are most Nigerians sufferhead? Its like you people love a life of suffering and putting others through a life of suffering even when it is not necessary. We are in 2015 going into 2016 in a few days. If Nigeria were to be an advanced rich country, her citizens ought not to be washing clothes with their hands in this day and age.

This is why many young Nigerian women have hands that look like they belong to an 80 year old grandma. Its all that washing of clothes with the hands that is the cause. All that harsh washing detergent is making their hands look hard and wrinkly. Please do the right thing and purchase a washing machine if you can afford it. Your wife is not a glorified house maid. Try and pamper her so that she won't start looking older than you in a few years after marriage and then you will come back to Nairaland to create a thread and ask why wives look older than their husbands after 10 - 15 years of marriage.

Person dey under influence of high una dey waste una time rendering advice. I laff.

You der plan to born 1 dozen?

U are entitled to ur opinion. However i feel d washing machine will save time while she carries out other house chores..

Must a woman suffer because of tradition ?

ur jus being too traditional...wen I get married I plan and would want to get one it saves time and it doesn't mean am lazy or won't train my children to wash wit der hands ...plz let ur fiancée have her wish its no biggie

If u can afford it then buy the machine u guys are just starting

I'm sure you will like her to bend down very well and pound yam or use morter to blend tomatoes or use native broom to bend down very well and sweep the house . Then the woman ages faster...

I think we should "work smart not work hard" these appliances were invented by smart people to save time for other important stuffs.

Loosen up a little.

Im sorry to say this...well actually i'm not. This is the kind of backward thinking that keeps Africa in the dark. The washing machine will allow her to do other house chores with ease, its about making daily chores faster and easier to do. What can take a human being 3hrs to do will take a washing machine 40mins. A lazy person with or without a machine will always be lazy.

Africans and their backward thinking it assists productivity. A lazy person will still find reasons not to use it sef

Typical traditional man who believes the more a woman suffers, the more wifely she's. .

Ladies, run away from men that reason this way cos you go work tire and he won't mind, believing that's what makes a woman...

***Rolls eyes...***

Why not just admit you're too broke to afford one?

To your fiancée if she's reading this: Madam, your partner-to-be Mr Donpata, has shown himself to be a tight/fisted broke guy hiding under the guise of being a "traditionalist". If you're working and can afford it, go get yourself a washing machine, dishwasher, tumble dryer, Hoover, and a gas / electric cooker. I just bought myself a top end double oven & grill and can't even begin to tell you how much easier & faster it's made my cooking experience.

Lol!

Being thrifty is good but not for essential items that'll improve the quality of one's life. The guy's taking this too far. Unless he's broke.

@op: would you have any issues with your misus purchasing any of these items herself with her own money?
