Exactly.My sister earns alot as a manager,the hubby earns too as a doctor.They had no car after their marriage. In short,they had no better property.The husband started with things he used from university and was working in a private hospital.My sister was a graduate trainee before they got married.I could remember how we used to enter keke all the time.Within a spec of 1yr,they got a car.My sister wasn't dragging the car as a contributor.The husband takes her to work and sometimes brings her back.They lived happily and managed that car for 4yrs till it started wearing out.They got another one for occasional programmes. They built a mansion within 5ys of marriage.I have never seen my sister disregard her husband nor become pompous of her contributions.The man is the head and she is happy to submit totally.I won't dispute the fact that her hubby is extremely family conscious.He is involved totally.But i prefer to be loved and catered for than struggling the headship of the home.This op didn't even make sense to me.

While your post is interesting, I honestly want to believe that you did not understand the OP.

She said a woman who contributes in a home where only the husband makes financial decisions without her input is a doormat.

Do some women like to be doormats?

Maybe.

Besides, how does a couple pulling resources together to build up their home equals the husband making all the financial decisions?

frankly, d lady havent said anything wrong. if u and ur husband contributes to acquire properties, he should not spend or sell such as d case may be without ur permission or deprive u from using them. he is d head, no argument but u are his support both financially and morally. u contribute to acquired them together, u should also discus things if anything is to b sold and also have privileges to such things

There's sense in what she said. Some cunning men just want doormats as wife whom they can easily ride on. The woman would suffer to make the money with them or even more of the money, but the man would take everything in his name and use the wealth to chase small girls.
Women would however continue to fall for such cunning men because those kind of men are masters of sweet talking. They easily use words to brainwash the woman.
posts like urs and poseidon12 is d reason I Dont generalize Nigerian guys but painful thing is that u are in the minority

She is NOT a home breaker according to her posts.

If a husband decides on the funds both of them make ALONE, then it is a dysfunctional marriage.

Do unto others as you want them to do unto you.
that's not the way to present it. Sounds more of a selfish, angry feminist
