Skmoda360:I get your point, but what matters most is the mindset. The question is: What makes u a man?. The ability to put any situation under your control using wisdom and understanding is what makes a man complete. Whether she is richer or not, your attitude and actions determines who is the head. I took a cue from brothers-in-law whose wives(my elder sisters) are all richer than them. Sometimes, when I visit them,I take into cognizance the way my in-laws handle situations... My sisters are very submissive 3 Likes 1 Share |

Hahaaha! Ok, i don't get certain things here. But before i go on, i would like to reiterate my point to the op that she should do as it pleases her. But op, i want you to take not of that which you might not be taking note of. Alot of the men here suddenly are now 'real' men who are not intimedated by successful women hence they speak in such condescending tone against 'inferior' men and in support of 'modern' civilization. But if these men are not intimedated and are now 'modern', who then are those men out there who are not intimedated? Are the men here not the same ones out there? If they are now 'modern' like they are now claiming to be, why then are the likes of Genevieve not married? Oh, they don't like Genevieve? So the question now is....why do these men come online and say something, but when they go out there, they behave differently? The answer is: feminist shaming and attacking of male psychology. No body wants to be seen as a non real man. 5 Likes 1 Share |

omotohdarajugbogbolo: Is unfortunate how inconsiderate the opinions of people are as seen in lots of bias comments from people. None of those kicking against your decision to buy a car put into consideration your personal well-being, emotional, psychological and physical stress of going to work everyday. Life is too short girl, your happiness is paramount and more important than the feeling & opinions of people. Beauty attracts a man but character keeps him!!! Hey Girl!!! Go for your car baby and make life comfortable for yourself. You work hard to make your money, you need not stress yourself too to spend your money.

My dear, you know what your family background is like and the society you live in cos what is obtainable in a standard society( say US) might just be farfetched here in naija. From the way you popped the question, it appears your family isn't too financially buoyant (cos if it were, buying a car wouldn't have been an issue) ...owing to this, it goes a long way to tell the kinda people you meet on a daily basis + family connect (in Phyno's voice). The conventional african man wants to always feel like the boss and mind you getting a car comes with attitude to befit car ownership( many WILL feel intimidated) ....babe, husband scarce oh! apply wisdom as WISDOM is profitable to direct. 2 Likes |

omotohdarajugbogbolo: @OP: It is obvious you desire a relationship/marriage so here I go.... In the three years you have worked, no meaningful relationship out of your place of work/worship? My friends & I have this joke that if you do not meet someone before working, (especially time consuming), it is difficult meeting someone (male & female), this is a joke but you get the gist. I do not know your weekly schedule but the places of meeting men are limited (work, place of worship, seminars/training/workshops & neighbourhood) except you are into arrangee marriage stuff. If you do mostly in-house/exclusive trainings, then the places are reduced. Since 3 years no relationship from your office then let's face the neighborhood... What kind of area do you stay? Is your place of worship in that area? What is obtainable there? As per Atiku's daughters having cars.... The type of men they married probably had planes and everyone knows who Atiku is. There are different expectations per class... Atiku's son might value a woman who drives well and is extremely business savvy than a very good cook; Sanusi Lamido's son might prefer a woman with blue blood to one who can kneel for Africa... A pastor might value a prayerful and hospitable wife over one with a big butt... Think deep about the pool of men around you and decide what is best for you. 4 Likes |

Is it a Nigerian men thing to not prefer 'successful women'? Well, here is a piece from the American huffington post. I disagree with some of the assertions here though. http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/2043795 |

bukatyne: same to you, my dear. E no fit. Ok, maybe i will stop refering to it as feminism but man-hate. There are those who are feminist but not man-haters. You need to understand what these people do, then you will understand why some people have to stand up to them. 1 Like |

This is really not a big deal because if your company decides to give you an official car,will you still seek people's opinion before you accept it?because a lot of ladies are currently cruising around in unbranded official cars. A Guy who really cares for you will not really care about if you ate driving a car or not. |

craziebone: Man-hate is the word you need. I see the definition of feminism and identified with it. Man-hate? count me out. But again, some people talk without in-depth thought. I know someone who has achieved so much and is feared/respected company wide yet she 'believes' men are superior to women. Yet, when she is giving assignments, she expects same results |
