Help Ironing Your Wife Clothes: Is It Part Of Help In The House? We are getting ready for office this morning and i try to iron my cloth, and my wife ask me to iron her own too. My wife ask me to help her to iron her cloth, while she take care of some others job in the house. But I refuse to help cause I have done some other jobs in the house too. Now she started talking rubbish, that helping ironing her cloth while she get busy doing some other stuff in the house is part of my obligation which i denied. Please house especially Married men, did u help your wife to iron her cloth while she get busy preparing your food or doing some other homeworks? |

Whatz d big deal ironing her clothes when u can do it. Being bossy and arrogant is not how to be a man. Rather being responsible,loving,understanding and knowing when 'less is more'. |

honestly I do not understand why this should even be an issue, what is the big deal with helping your wife out, does it not form part of the promise of taking care of her till death do you part. Love your wife and take care of her. She wasn'' loafing around while you did the ironing according to you, so why not. |

Toonice: Your wife probably washes your clothes, prepares your food, takes care of your kids, does some wifly duties for you, makes your bed, lends you money if you are broke (sometimes), tidies your wardrobe, etc and you cannot do something as little as helping her iron her own clothes? I feel for your wife o! What a hubby she has got? |

What's wrong with you helping her to do ANYTHING? I thought you are supposed to be a team. What's wrong with you iron her clothes even if she's resting . . aint she your wife to love, take care of and cherish? Nigerian men in naija, we need to get out of this mentality. Seriously. |

@ Toonice Question: did you buy your wife from her parents, or did they sell her to you? If that is the case, then I don't blame you for wanting to get your moneys-worth. However, if you met her, grew to love her and married her, then this shouldn't even be an issue for discussion. |

My hubby does ironing, Vacuuming, lawn( summer only)but we hire people to do the leaves on fall and snow clearing , fill both cars gas tank on Sundays (dont have time to buy gas on weekdays cos i m always rushing), these things take a lot of weight off my shoulder cos i ve got a LOT to do, cooking , constant cleaning, kids and more. Being a woman is a lot of work especially if there are kids involved, but its all worth it , you have to help abeg, or she ll just drop |

Nna na wah. I washed a plate too. I swept one grain of rice too. I also peeled one yam na. People ehhh. You are doing something and your partner is asking you to help her do something that doesn't require you to move from where you already are, the iron is already on, not as if you have to plug it again and just a little energy expended. That one dey unreasonable?  For one measly piece of clothing.  |

Toonice:why cant u be reasonable and help your wife iron the cloth instead of coming to nairaland to whine |

My friend go and sit down and stop coming here to air your childishness. What is the big deal in ironing your wife's cloths along with yours when you can do it. Marriage is about team work, and from the looks of things you are yet to graps that. Please talk about something more grown up. |

Can she wash your own clothes and Iron them? hope there are no crime in that. Let us assume you are the woman will you like to be treated as such. My friend women are no slaves they are your helpmate. Whatsoever you do for her you do for yourself for you are onebody. |

my hubby helps me iron both my clothes and that of our son. and guess what, he helps do the dishes sometimes 2ce a week and always always makes the bed cos i'm not good in making the bed. Does that make him less of a man? NO. Get off your high horse and see your wifey as "ONE" before you sow negative seeds in your marriage. You are her and she is you |
| Re: Should A Husband Iron His Wife's Clothes For Her? by mykhel995: 10:58am On Nov 12, 2011 |
you should get a divorce. ironing for your wife should be a non-issue. coming on here to ask proves that you do not love your wife at all. my advice, divorce her and move on with your life. |

I hope ur wife isnt reading dis on nairaland cos u've embrassed urself,u arent gettin any support as u thot u wud i hope u will be more supportive @ home with d little chores n not just payin d bills. Doin little chores for her makes her want to do more for you. |

Sometimes when our custom conflicts with common sense. How long do you want to be married to her for ? 50 years? Make her your friend and confidant . Only do to her what you want her to mirror to you, it may conflict with your upbringing but its your home so shut the door and truly love your woman, when you do : ironing for her will be the least of your ego's problem. Whether you iron her underwear or not , you will always be a man i.e Her man ! I think you are a nice man who is struggling with his ego but if you got to live with smeone for 50 years, 60 years,etc : Then it is worth investing in harmony bank right now. |

Toonice: Nothing stops you from giving helping hand to your lovely wife at home. ironing her cloth is one of numerous help you can rendered to your wife at home. I am a married man and i do it with fun at home so don't allow the 'husband ego' to rob your dearling wife of your help, it is very romantic and i bet it she will appreciate it. You need to also guide against your wife becoming unnecessarily lazy. |
