Hilarious!

I stated my opinion, you state yours and move on.

If you get home by 8pm, wifey gets home by 10pm due to traffic/long hours etc., sit your ass and wait for her to get home before you drink water


Or you can play games or nairaland

carefreewannabe: What a rubbish story. Thank God the women in my family respect each other more and the men do not mind do the shopping if their wives work late.

pickabeau1:

You call a fortune500 CEO's words rubbish?
Interesting....

carefreewannabe:


Why not?

davidif: One thing the veterans of the gender wars: feminist movement from the late 60's and 70's are beginning to discover is that you can't have it all indeed. You can't eat your cake and have it. Unfortunately, some of them found out too late.

Now, the younger women like chimamanda adichie and co. (That also includes some nairalanders here ) who are relatively new to feminism and are still in its honeymoon phase and are so excited about it are willing to spread its message and principles with zeal at times. Years from now,when they pass that honeymoon phase, what sets in might be disillusionment and regret but by then it's already too late.

Hopefully, they would heed the words of wisdom from this woman and learn from this. It seems that every decade, there is always some new ideas or movement that springs up and excites a lot of people but after a while people they get tired and move on to the next fad.

Now, I am not against women having equal rights or anything as I hate people being oppressed, I am just against the excesses of militant feminism.

delishpot: Bottom line, support support support.
If it was in naija thr hubby would sleep with house girl and claim his wife was always travelling. He will say she never had time for kids and even made her secretary attend to her kids.
Her mother inlaw did not interfere, her husband did not ban her mom from his home, her mom did not try to take control of her daughters home. She still has some small guilt feeling for lost moments, but she is copping cos she has something to show for her lost moments with her kids and her home was not left 100% unattended.
I believe a eise woman with good support system can touch the sky.

Bigsteveg:

Ssmmmhhhh

Ngokafor:

...you are so right about the 'good support' system thingy...
..unfortunately most male folks here singing her praises and taking a dig at Nigerian women,conveniently forgot that perhaps she has a loving and understanding hubby...a trait they have zero abilities in
