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.

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.

You say this as if it was not you that brought up the woman doing house work Lagos man argument. You cook and do your own chores, pray tell. . . would it be the same if you were married? Yes submissiveness in any context is equal to some type of slavery.

So one is supposed to become docile because women outnumber men. What am thinking is rather inappropriate to post so lets just leave it.

The bible says "submit your ways unto the Lord" . . . does that mean we are slaves of God?
You submit to the authority of your parents, are you their slave?

When i'm married i'll still do what i'm used to doing . . . that is why i insist that marriage is individual. You may end up with a husband who can't wash a handkerchief. what would you do? Buy new ones everyday simply because it is slavery to submit to helping him wash them?

all this cooking cooking cooking wahala.

Una never meet the beautiful lady whose food can give you a nasty stomach ache. No one will tell some guys to get cracking in the kitchen and whip up something to eat when the situation becomes critical. Una go just resemble matchstick because of hunger.

Thats if you want something tasty to eat.

The other option is to be the man, suck it up and eat whatever tasteless food the beautiful, influential and well placed love of your life dishes out in the kitchen.

or some people don't know there are Nigerian women out there who any guy would be proud to have as a wife, but who can't cook. Undecided

why would you even date someone who can't soak garri? It says alot about a person ie they are used to having things done for them 24/7

If you're the mothering type that would be fine for some but for those who arent, I doubt they'd stay in such a ridiculous relationship

we still chase women because the ratio of facially acceptable women is far less than the 8:1 ratio i mentioned earlier.  Grin

You people still don't get it, if only women could see how much their husband's cherish them in their hearts . . .

i have one example. Its not that she can't cook but she just dislikes it. But they are enjoying a beautiful marriage with 3 kids now. The husband is even worse in the kitchen, the best he can do is boil water or soak garri. Its all about choice and being able to adapt to the others strengths and weaknesses.
All men don't come in the same mould, pick the one that you can live with and be happy.

Is the husband then God or parents or both? There are different types of love; agape, filos and eros therefore I don't think someone I am romantically involved with is an authority figure, that's just creepy. If my husband can't wash a handkerchief that is where the equality comes in as I will teach him. However if he thinks he is an authority figure over me teaching him how to wash a handkerchief would be a problem. I can explain why if you want me to.

look, i want to get myself cleared hear.  don't mind the whole the husband is the boss kind of thing, as in its always been like that, in  my generation. but there is about to be a revolution with me, n am pretty sure its like that in most families too.

from a christani perspective, we will always respect the fact that Adam was created before Eve, but let Adam hold that respect oooo. because if he turns eve to a servant he might not have it for long. datz all am saying
