What kind of senseless post is this.
Of course it's normal! It's only natural that she had a househelp growing up and now that she's married, her dustband has resumed the duties of the househelp.
What a lucky man.

So yesterday at a coffee shop, I met a married Nigerian mother of three from Imo state who said that she had never done grocery shopping for her household, cooked, done any house cleaning, bathed her kids or changed their diapers. Not only did she not know how to do those, she wasn't interested and didn't see them as shortcoming.
Actually, she hadn't done any domestic work all her life obviously because she had househelp growing up back home and as at the time of filing this report hahaha, she wasn't ready for any domestic work brouhaha(in her words).

All those according to her, were being done by her husband and she didn't see any problems with that. I thought she was kidding but the seriousness on her face and from what I observed in her during the coffee break made me believe every single word she said.

....ehmmm before I forget, she was a practicing nurse who was there for a job opening in the military. All these started when I asked how her family would cope if she became a military nurse possibly traveling around the world.
The fun and shock from listening to her was however cut short when a colleague walked into us and she realized she was talking or should I say boasting to the wrong person.

I now ask, is this normal?

Lalasticlala, please come and share your thoughts as a married man.

izzou:

ZIMDRILL:



she told you what you wanted to hear

its very rare in most AFRICAN marriages

even here in west few men are househusbands

I would've thought so myself if I wasn't there and saw her say it. From what I read in her mind, there wasn't any exaggerations in all she said.

drginger:
It's not true, she is exaggerating things, many women lie about their homes and get other women into trouble. Yes she has got maids, and yes her husband helps, but to say she does not or has never done any house chores is a lie, even juju can not do Dat magic for her

OP definitely created the thread to bring the usual family section war. If at all it did happen, looks like the woman told him what he wants to hear.

I usually do that sometimes

Some women can brag shaa...

That's how my stylist told me she doesn't make friends with married young mothers.Due to the fact that her married friend told her that she's in total control of her husband and her home,that anytime her husband maltreats her in any way,she should just pack her things and leave, little did she know that her friend was bragging. Not until, she visited her friend unannounced and caught her kneeling down with her hands up like the way a child is punished. She even eavesdropped and got to know that her friend's husband gave her punishment with curses to spice it up.She opened their curtain and made sure her friend saw her,the later was totally ashamed and humiliated. Since that day,their friendship ended.
So forget it,when it comes to what goes on in people's marriage,some women can over exaggerate and tell lies.
One of the reasons I don't Facebook or do Instagram ish is because of so much fakeness some women exhibit there.It's even seen in nairaland but at least, this one is a bit of a faceless forum.

she is a practicing nurse. there is NO WAY a nurse will not be involved on some level with tasks like bathing patients, changing bedpans, etc. Story.
