Hopefully she has a husband that is a civil servant or that comes home at a decent hour otherwise people will die of starvation.

IMO that's a greedy set up. The day her father & mother inlaw come visiting shebi she's instruct them to wait until their son comes home to taste the food; and if there're kids in the equation, they'll still be looking like 2 year olds by the time they're 8 because over the accumulated years, popsy don chop their share in terms of hot meals and time. Everything we do in life has its consequences. If you do a background check on the family, you'll most likely find out that it's very difficult for them to give people things or go out of their way to do things for people. Their poor kids then grow up thinking that that's how life is supposed to be. They have successfully thought their kids the art of "ME FIRST" instead of others first. These are some of the reasons some kids prefer to spend their holidays in other people's home other than theirs. They discover the art of sharing. God bless those homes IJN. Amen.

Ehrrrm, isn't this what happens in naija?

I grew up with the mentality that the head of the house (the man) be served first before anybody.
After him, then the rest can go and get their plates.

But if he's not home, his food will be set aside till he arrives. No need to wait for him undecided

which good wife, the fact dat a woman will do that nonsense is crazy,there r alotta ways to show a man hw much u respect him

i can relate with a woman not eating without her husband cos she wants them to eat together, but this one is crazy? undecided


@topic

so if the kids are dying of hunger, they should stillwait for daddy abi?

what a joke
Re: Her Husband Must Be The First To Taste Her Food by allycat: 12:21pm On May 01, 2009
I understand her point of view. Everyman should be a king in his own castle. If I made dinner for my husband and a guest arrived unexpectedly he or she will wait, if not go home. I cant imagine my husbang comming home to HIS own house for dinner and meeting my friends at table . Who then invites who to the table. If i have a guest like my mum- in- law her meals are usually prepared seperately, her own dinner will be served by 6 or 7 and my help can do that. I actually am known for not going into the kitchen unless i am cooking for my husband. I dont have kids yet but when I do they will become top priority like my guy is now. Fortunately I am blessed with a great guy who is appreciative.

Wonderful woman. Your husband is a lucky man. smiley

I don't understand all these people who complain about men putting their families before their wives now complaining when the couple decides to place themselves (and kids) above external family.
Re: Her Husband Must Be The First To Taste Her Food by ThiefOfHearts(f): 2:37pm On May 01, 2009
If this was a normal situation fine but Naija extended families dont understand that nonsense. Even if the husband tells them to their faces that this is whta will happen, they will still begrudge the wife. It happens ALL the time.

if the woman is "jazzing" her husband, wouldnt that be more effective if she set his food aside before putting it in? Think about that.


@ topic:

aside from showing her guy respect, I think what she's trying to do is also have a family dinner time- a chance for the whole family to bond together.

The major problem is if the other members of the household get hungry while waiting.
Re: Her Husband Must Be The First To Taste Her Food by amebono13: 2:53pm On May 01, 2009
that is rubbish, i know whenever i travel back home to naija, my mum used to visit smtimes wtout letting us know,especially if shes coming back from the market and got some stuffs for me

so what will i tell her? "go home woman, oga isnt home yet,for that reason nobody can eat the food dat i prepared"


puhpleasee nobody knows wat happens inside,it might be "eye service"
Re: Her Husband Must Be The First To Taste Her Food by ThiefOfHearts(f): 3:42pm On May 01, 2009

I dont think she refuses to serve her kids until her husband comes home, that would be wicked. Even my mum would make sure my dad's portion was reserved FIRST before we got to eat . . . every woman to herself. I personally have no problems with it.

understandable and better, a lot of women do that too, my mum is amongst them(i remember dat d best part of the okporoko,mangala and co was for my dad,while we had to manage small biscuit bone grin grin grin jk jk), it is different from starving evrybody cos oga isnt back

it is advisable for a woman to put her husbands portion safe, then the remaining should be given to others in the house

i mean, if she wants to eat with her husband,then let her wait for him to come home but not bleeping starve others

haba TOH, are u not a nigerian. grin grin grin

eye service(let me try and explain to u) is the person dat does things just to be noticed, and called good, smone dat likes to take credit for everything he or she does,  a little more/above "notice me, or i quench"

e.g a woman dat wants a man to marry her, will wanna do things to get d credit, e.g cleaning,sweeping the whole house plus neighbour own join grin grin grin , wash mans boxers and clothes,iron,scrub floor(hands and legs) with mop like sistawomans kids grin grin grin

It is not an Ijebu culture, it is a Yoruba culture. When I was young my mother use to do it. And if my father was not around. I was the first son of the house. My mother would call me to taste it first. When she get the permission from my father. And I am not Ijebu. It is a yoruba culture.

never heard of anything like that as far as I remember, not even in my friend's houses.
Re: Her Husband Must Be The First To Taste Her Food by royalicon(m): 8:39pm On May 01, 2009
Its a good sign for the husband not to keep away from home, hanging out with sisi them, knowing fully that the whole family is waiting for him.

Thats how they plan the foundation of the marrital home. Leave them alone.

Good luck o jare,

Ch . . . if the only time he is allowed to be the first to taste the food is when he cooks it himself until then first come, first served.
Re: Her Husband Must Be The First To Taste Her Food by tpiah: 9:50pm On May 01, 2009
abeg becomerich what's the meaning of all this you're typing?

I repeat- the wife is doing it as her way of showing respect for her hubby.

Its not a general culture and neither does it mean others who dont do exactly the same, are disrespecting their husbands.

This is the 21st century. Unless the man grew up in a rigidly traditional home, I shouldnt think he'd expect that.
