trying flying an aircraft as a partnership.
David, am tired of you always giving me that as your answer. Give me another. In a plane, the captain controls everything, so must it be likewise for the marriage? |

Love you dear.
I pray you have a very happy home.
I am married and I couldn't be happier.
Marriage is not as scary as people say
It has it's challenges but love and a desire to make it work makes the difference.
Don't listen to all these women lib talk about equality blah blah
Most of those people saying those have been divorced many times over and are looking for marriages to ruin.
They are frustrated women who need to be by themselves.
The Bible calls the kind of control they preach witchcraft.
From such keep away.
Thank you ma, you experienced words are greatly appreciated.  |

It is kind of funny when they point out cooking as if it is a unique problem witht the Nigerian men. Which American person would cook for You? Not the ones I know around here, definitely. They can't cook for shit!!!! What about the ladies? Well, if You can't make do with Pizza and ordering in, then forget about dating them.
bros you dey mind them? I don't know which American man will wake up in the morning to scrub the floor for you. No be partnership? I thought marriages was an equal opportunity front but since in terms of marriage there is a difference in the meaning of submissiveness then. . . You remember when you said Lagos men will not do housework? I think if I have to do it all then yes, I am basically his house help. There is a difference between shouldering responsibility and expecting me to do all the housework. Besides what kind of responsibility will he have if am doing all the chores? (I hope you don't think I will not have a career because am married. Not planning on doing all this school to get certificates for dust collecting and baby pushing)
Wendy, you're way off point. My mom has a successful medical career and yet manages the home front perfectly well so what is your point? Does submissiveness mean you shld become a fulltime house wife? Sheniqua abeg if you have a sister please recommend me to her, all this "equal opportunity" people don tire me. When next u're driving your car have your boyfriend hold one end of the steering wheel too. |

the captain never controls everything, he needs someone to announce safety procedures, he needs an assistant to help him in case he gets tired, he needs auto-pilot to enable him stretch his legs . . . YET the buck still ends at his table. |

So your mother comes home from work and does all the chores and cooking while your dad does what, flies an aircraft? Yes the way you describe. . . in fact mentioning submissiveness seems to suggest full time house wife. |

na wa o. na village be that. So , I ask you again, being a wife is just being an assistant? The assistant pilot is a certified pilot in his own right. Being assistant to the captain takes nothing away from his hard earned prestige. So your mother comes home from work and does all the chores and cooking while your dad does what, flies an aircraft? Yes the way you describe. . . in fact mentioning submissiveness seems to suggest full time house wife.
While my dad stretches his legs and reads a newspaper. Is that a problem to you? That is the way they chose to live their lives . . . while you sit there complaining, their marriage is going into its 27th yr very soon and they are both happy as can be. Its all in the mind, if you want your husband to help you . . . nagging and threats wont help you. |

david,I advise you to marry calabar chic. If I were a man I'll marry them. They are taught from childhood how to massage their husbands shoulders and feet and the few Calabar ladies I know married to Igbo men here in the states,their husbands practically worship them. That's why people have this myth of their sexual agility,it's not it,they know how to make a man love them. They even clip his toe nails I heard first hand from a Calabar girl the things they do for their men. It's amazing,the women are so loving to their husband. You could be talking with them till the husband gets home,the conversation is over,you have to leave. |

Different strokes for different folks. Am not complaining since am not married and while you expect the woman to be submissive if I get married I plan on being myself. My parents marriage is going on fine and my dad cooks if my mother is tired or because he simply wants to. He calls and tells everyone because his cooking is quiet impressive. . . I hope your wife is submissive enough for you. |

Anyone you hear shouting equality is either very young, unmarried or unhappy in their marriage.
What they want is not equality,they actiually want to call the shots and rubberstamp it.
It's like the gay movement,they're not looking for equal treatment, they basically want to silence anyone who opposes them and force their agenda down our throats.

its sad that a lot of you simply equate submissiveness to slavery. That is a false alarm. Surprisingly unlike my dad, i cook far better than many of my aunts, i prefer to do my own house cleaning and laundry. There is nothing a woman does in the house that i can't do even better so besides companionship and having kids i really don't need a woman. Ditto for many men out there. Wait until u find a boyfriend who can't even soak garri, i'll see whether u'll let him starve. |

So people pushing this "i am a leader too" agenda don't even have boyfriends because men don't like equality or maybe just maybe because there are more important things in life than having a boyfriend. |

wake up, this is the 21st century. Women outnumber men 8:1, if u're not willing there are at least 7 more ready to take your place. God help u if you're not even fine and u're doing shakara. |
