This is the problem with africans...we men seem to think that a woman is our slave,married to wash and cook then make babbies and bring up children while men sit like a God and a master of the house.

Look at a woman who is meant to be fighting for the rights of her gender encouraging this injustice to women engendered by the bible and all the ancient nonsensense called holy books

A woman is a full equal of man and is not made to serve.....the sacrifice,pains and danger a woman pass through while giving birth to a child is far more than the so called suffering of christ which is meant to save us and instead will condemn a majority of humans to eternal fire for not believing he died for us

we don.t even know if you're a male or female.

But judging by your submission, you must be a female.

So an injustice was done to a woman when she wash her husband UnCloth Hmmm.

We shall continue to shout civilization, why in the true sense we cannever be like them. And we are very far from it.


Our mentality, our ways of doing thing are totally different.

Listen carefully oyinbo is not our culture, we have our culture apart from religion, but when we live our culture and began to follow another man's culture we cannever get it right.

I see pride in this your comment, and the bible says pride goes before a fall.

Your grandmother and your great grandmother never saw anything wrong in respecting their husband and you re not better than them in any ramification.

Nature and religion enjoys us to r everence our husband, and that is the way it was made to be.

Man and woman are never equal,

today you we here something like this, how can you do this to a woman, why must you do that to a woman, why must you raise your hand on a woman, and person like you will be the first person to shout at the top of your voice, but if that same thing is done to a man, then it is justifiable.

And these are more reasons why Muslims hates America, they believe that America is corrupting the entire world.

If you like you take or leave it, we cannever be like them, they will only ends up in corrupting us, since it is the only thing we knows how to do better.

But in technology, we are no were to be found.

So a woman is a great wife because she washes her husband pants?

Lol

And did I say that's the reason she is? There's more to being a great wife.

And the fact that a woman choses not to wash her husband's pants doesnt mean she's not a great wife.

Different strokes.

She is just trying to pass a message to the young ladies, most of the ladies see her as a role model, so she is like if I do that, what the hell are you ladies saying when you say you can't be submissive to your spouse, despite the peanuts you think....

Second richest African woman, Folorunsho Alakija, has revealed she still washes her husband’s undies until recently.

The executive vice chairman of Famfa Oil and group managing director of The Rose of Sharon Group revealed recently how she still dotes on her husband like a teenager who just found love. The Africa’s richest self-made woman, with a net worth estimated at $1 billion said:

“My husband is my best friend, biggest adviser and supporter. We’ve known each other for 40 years and have been married for 37 years now and with four boys. Even though we work in the same office, I always ensure that we kiss twice in a day, morning and night. I still wash his undies until six years ago that he insisted I should stop. I also prepare his special vegetable dish and do his manicure and pedicure regularly.
“I go to the airport to pick him whenever he’s returning from foreign trips. It gives me joy whenever his friends praise my vegetable dish based on what my husband tells them.”


Hmnn, what an inspiration!

I'm not an English Teacher. But I think that's an Oxymoron. It's contradicting. You "still" wash it and yet you stopped washing it 6 years ago.

But we get the point though.

You are on point.When people lie, they can use any language to buttress their point.

I dont see young ladies of nowadays towing this path. Its one of the nice things that sets Africa apart from the world.

Its a pity they dont have this kinda mindset anymore

Why should girls of nowadays wash your undies? Do you wash theirs?

She passed a message and you said you got the point. So what's the fuss about. Since you want to go literature, there's what we call poetic license. She used still, because she is still willing to and possibly when the opportunity arises,she still.
But am glad, you still got the point though

CaroLyner:
and so? it is her duty.

When will you people stop with this feeling of entitlement? If a woman is feeling entitled to your money now, we won't hear word. When a woman cooks, cleans, washes for her husband, please just take it as her showing you love. She is not entitled to do so as that is not why she was created. It is not a duty, it is love. Now I see the problem with Nigerian men, you view spending on your woman as a duty instead of a way of showing her love. It's not like you will cook and clean for her, but the little you can do, you'll still. Smh.

Who is lost? undecided

How she shows love to her husband is her business
How I intend to show love is my business
A man that expects that of me must be delusional
The lost ones are the ones who think it is a woman's duty and the ones who cannot comprehend what she is trying to convey
Alakija wouldn't dare ask her own daughter to watch her husband's undies to appear humble. She is not that stupid.

Women and their Charactization of 'love'...The man buys her expensive jeweries, cars, etc to 'show his love' and the woman washes his undies to 'show her love'.

Women have been deciding men since 1500 with this 'love' matter. My gf will expect me to buy her an iPhone 6s for her birthday, but on unwrapping the nicely package gift from her for my birthday, they contain singlet and socks...mteeech!

A woman washing her husband's undies have nothing to do with submissiveness, unless the contrapositive is also true i.e. A man washing his wife's undies is also submissive...so both are not true.

I don't understand how a grown man can't wash his own undies. Azzin you will remove boxers and pile for your wife to wash? Lazy men everywhere. Is he a child? You men can fit disgrace yourselves o. A whole head of house can't even clean up his undies. Glorified babies.

Nicely put there, if only 90% of women can be that considerate to first ponder if the guy can afford it, before putting pressure on them about their gifts.

A popular Nigerian music in the early 90s, still rings a bell and it is paraphrased like..."your money go woman go".

As a man, 90% of the time, if you lose you job or means of livelihood, you will loose your wife or at the minimum loose some of your respects. In the words of Chris Rock, "...You might not loose her immediately, but the countdown has began".

You can't blame women. It was your choice to listen to her. You can as well wait till you meet your wife or look before you choose a gf. There are many women out there who wouldn't do that

There is o my sis. How many self made women in naija can boast of such humility today, I remember Dora akunyinlli before she died they said she still cooked her husband's food. Even, ladies working in banks, don't have time, let alone a billionaire. It takes discipline.
