Will we get to read about pros and cons of a working man too? why must it always be about the women, why should there be pros and cons for a working woman, isnt she allowed to work without any pros and cons attached to it, about time you people start letting women be, they didnt come into this world to be told what to do or not to do.meanwhile my wife must be an intelligent and smart working woman thats how i love them.

sorry ma,emabinu o.. we are working on tat ma ...

Allow her? Is she somehow unable to decide what she wants to do? You would PREFER she gets a shop rather than work under a boss.

Sexist op. Pros ko cons ni. As if the decision of a woman to work and not rely totally on her husband is totally unethical. Come up with better things biko, and stop making it seem like women are supposed to give up their dreams after marriage.

Insecurity is one if the reasons some men do not allow their wife to work.

For me, I will work, I can't live my life always asking (actually begging) for money. Marriage has its ups n downs, imagine how life will be when marriage gets sour and hubby refuses to give you money?

I believe a working woman is every man's security, no matter how much you earn, because she will be exposed to business tactics and can always help out or carry on if you retire

I started working at the age of 14 (summer jobs), and have been in the workforce for many years. Ex-husband had no problem with me being the major breadwinner, especially when he was spending the money. lol Yes, some man may find it difficult to be with a woman who earns more, totally understandable.

GOD BLESS YOU. Chasing career is what have turned many marriages into satan's footstool and the children into his toy. Both working parents are the kinds that help their children chase goals which in most cases causes them to miss their creation role in Life. This is when they become slaves to wrong ideas and sin in a wrong church. Allowing Satan take charge of their home, turning the destiny of the kids into anything he desires like we are seeing today

But religion just asked for deference from the wives to the husbands that's all . Being the head of the family does not mean your wife should be treated like a nobody . Both need to compromise and come up with something that'll benefit everyone - kids included .

2)insecurity

I don't see why a woman's success should make the man insecure . You both are a team and should celebrate your success together and learn and make improvements when either of you fail . Encourage the other and build again together . Its not a competition .

3)Moral grounds

It is bad to treat your woman without respect . She could feel unfulfilled in life and unhappy to . She is human and has the propensity to aspire to greater heights .

4)Ego

Its a woman's responsibility to understand her man's ego and try to balance things . Things work out for the both of you when the woman understand this .

5)Love

If you love each other , both should be willing to make sacrifices for each other . And obliterate any form of selfishness .

6)Some wives prefer it.

Women naturally love men being in charge . But being in charge does not mean ruining her life or being selfish .

Proverbs like the okro tree cannot grow taller than the one who planted it is rampant in most, not all, homes that had working wives .
Most of them, their grown up children are nothing to write home about...
Wrong!
It's not how far but how well. It also depends on the child. That you sit all day with your kids does not mean you ve impacted them positively

‎Point of correction: female doctors and lawyers aren't the most educated women! Gone are the days doctors and lawyers are considered the most educated, and gone are the days they were the highest paid or highest earners!

I am sure you haven't met professional accountants, nurses, business administrators, journalists, female programmers/coders, engineers and architects, so quit that old mentality of overeating doct‎ors and lawyers cos their era is gone!

Nurses even earn higher than doctors nowadays, and journalists are more respected than lawyers in our today world!

Now to the topic, whatever your fiance is doing or was doing successfully before u met her or married her, guys let her continue with it!

An idle wife is not good, every human deserves and ought to work and earn money, and it's a crime for any adult human not to have a means of earning legal income!

Single ladies, don't wait till you marry before you start your life or get something doing, start now that you are single and no reasonable man will tell u to quit what u were doing successfully before u met him just because he got married to u! Unless your job is dirty and illegal, that's understandable then, if not, don't listen to him!‎ 

In fact, discuss this before accepting his marriage proposal!‎

Why do you people believe that female doctors and lawyers are the only highly educated female professionals, why plz

Have you ever come across a professional female Accountant or a nurse Have you ever met a‎ professional female Architect or Engineer

Have you met a professional female Pharmacist Have you met a professional female journalist

What about TV and Radio Presenters 

Female doctors and lawyers are not the only highly educated female professionals, you hear undecided

In fact, doctors and lawyers no longer earn much like in the past! The world has evolved, even dedicated bloggers, photographers, makeup artists, fashion designers and the likes earn more than most doctors and lawyers today, so quit that archaic mentality abeg!!!‎

She works or not, it wont change the fact that I would be the one to offset the bills in the house, I will always b the head of the house and she must b submissive to me.
you sound insecure!!!! She is your companion for heavens sake and if you play your role very well you won't demand submission. Women are like computers ,its what you put in them that you will get. Never make them doubt you, when they want to always give that reassurance. Be very open and you will see your wife lay her life for you.

@ topic-- did you mean an employee wife!!!!? Cos almost all women work these days some are self employed ie business owners I guess they won't fall into this picture?
