African women seem to be the most confused species to walk the surface of the earth. An earlier thread was asking how much a man should be paying his wife every month and many women did not consider it a stupid question. In the western world, family responsibilities are shared proportionally to each person's income. If the woman earns more, she spends more in the home and vice versa. Talking about equality here makes sense. But in Africa, a woman expects the man to foot all the family bills and still expect some more for personal upkeep, even when sometimes they earn more than the man. Some expressly decide not to work and push EVERY responsibility, including that of the woman's maiden family, on the man. Yet they copy the western lifestyle of not submitting to men. I ask again...what do Nigerian women really want? You cannot have your cake and eat it. A man that pays all the bills would naturally feel like a boss, simply because he is one. Lack of respect for the woman which could lead to extramarital affairs is common.

Obviously one of those who didn't read and comprehend an opening post of not more than 10lines. Lazy Nigerian youths!

That's what our ladies don not understand. Seriously,they don't know the innate powers they possess.
marriage is not a competition for who get power pass,neither is it a master /surbodinate relationship

Even the Bible says can 2 walk together unless they agree? Note the unwritten point of PARTNERSHIP.

Even Yorubas say IKUNLE ONSHEY IWA. Kneeling down is not a sign of submission or respect. Moreover there are different types of kneeling down

1.ikunle abosi (which is very common) people do it to those who wield power to get what they want and still yinmu at the persons back and insult /make jest of the person
2.ikunle tioni abosi ninu (very rare and uncommon)
3.ikunle fun olorun. This is actually justified because he alone deserves total submission, reverence and worship

Why are people making hasty conclusion?

what if the man too actually share the same opinion with the woman rather than him being influenced? what if he's even the one that influenced the woman and not the other way around? Not all men respect traditional protocols to things
such opinion leads to promiscuity and infidelity in marriage

The institute of marriage is really under attack.

Why marry stall if you don't want to submit to your husband?

The concept of marriage from the west dosnt work. That's why one out of every 2 marriages end in divours.

On marriage matters, the whites need to learn from Africa not the other way round.

So, just that one day kneeling will make her submissive?

If she refused to kneel down properly, she will do it well ,when she enters labor room, God has made man master , it's normal norms that should be obeyed and cherished. If the man goes out and see a respectful lady and cherish her character, them you will be complaining, man don't talk much but lady always down with man's negative reaction.
you need to get enlightened.

WOMEN LIE ON THEIR BACKS AND OPEN THEIR THIGHS TO POP OUT BABIES. they aren't chickens or animals that bend over to birth their offsprings

I AM A WOMAN AND MOTHER SO I AM JUSTIFIED TO EXPLAIN HOW AND WHAT BIRTHING ENTAILS BECAUSE I HAVE ENTERED THE LABOUR ROOM to birth my daughter.

O yes, science has also made birthing easier to relieve the pain of child birth. Google it wink

When it's time to get pregnant let them also speak with Mother Nature to allow the husband carry the baby to term.

A Nigerian woman based in Toronto has told of how she challenged cultural norms by choosing not to kneel down for her husband during her traditional marriage, and that Nigerian men are mad about it.

The gorgeous Yoruba bride said she and her husband spoke to the coordinators (Alagas) ahead of the wedding and asked that they do not ask her to kneel for her husband. The wedding day came and it was the way the bride and groom wanted it. There was no mention of submission and she didn't have to kneel.

She said her sister also took a stand at her own wedding which took place earlier this week.

After she shared her story, some women who did the same thing came to share theirs. A few Nigerian men applauded her for challenging the status quo. But the majority of Nigerian men were angry and called her out. Some even insulted her husband for supporting her.

See reactions below;

https://www.torimill.co/viral/9559/lady-shares-how-she-avoided-kneeling-for-husband-during-traditional-marriage.html

This is what happens when a Nigerian guy marries a foreign based Nigerian feminist-wannabe to get stay abroad to continue their slaving in foreign land undecided

But we see hundreds of white ladies, Asian ladies, Indian ladies, etc who started feminism still kneeling down for their Nigerian husbands during their Nigerian wedding ceremonies to their Naija husbands, even if the wedding is conducted abroad, so shameful for our women trying so hard to hate their unique beautiful culture the whites are envying secretly cry


Tell me if her husband is small but rich Davido, Wizkid, Tekno, and co, she wouldn't even prostrate to give him drink, black women will burn down the world once given the lighter angry angry

You peeps are funny. Someone that feels too big to kneel on her wedding day would kneel to blow him?

Most of them stop blowing after the wedding ..

There's an end to every game.. In this game of relationship for most women is marriage..

They are always on a mission, you'll be wondering why the sudden change after doing many nice things for you during courting like "good sex, cook, clean etc.

At least, madam no kneeling down is truthful before the traditional wedding .. The lady is rude.. She dey slap am for their face for social media..

That wan na the husband headache sha.. The man na sissy, like the guy you quoted said.

So long both of them are cool with the arrangement, no problem. As for me I don't want any noisy or elaborate wedding sef, nothing like pre-wedding photoshoot or the likes.. Just a simple wedding of few friends and family and I'm done. If my future partner is cool with my idea then every other person ideas doesn't matter
You are just the type of woman for me.

Most of them feel reluctant to do the dirty after marriage. It's crazy. And yet they'll raise hell when a young man gets a couple of joy givers outside to keep enjoying the nasty pleasures he's used to..

Marriage is a scam invented to favour women and immiserate men. It's really of no use to men.

The husband agreed to it, so I believe they have their reasons. When I was a kid, still in primary school, my uncle married a Yoruba woman. He said he won't prostrate, it caused so much noise that day. Even as a kid, I was just looking at him like, "is this one okay?...sha dobale let's leave here". He didn't. They have been married for nothing less than 15yrs. Some people take little things serious.

What is head? embarassed

I will have to explain what head is in person so that you have a full understanding. Please send me a pm so we can schedule a one on one lesson session. It is unfortunate that you do not know what it is, but like everything it can be rectified

If you can't kneel down for me, I'll kukuma stay transparent. I'm not bending an inch for your parents too. I'll rather greet your fam/parent with an handshake. 50/50.

Now the kneeling culture is beyond submission or one wayoo style or whatever you guys propose it was.
It is a sign of respect for your in-laws in general, not your husband actually.

Yoruba culture is being challenged by some women in USA and some people are very happy about it!?

This is another evidence that Africans culture may be annihilated with time due to misplaced value system. How do you expect the man, the head of the family to be, to go prostrate for your parents and yet you can't kneel to him or his family members? You are an invitation to crisis.
I blame your parents and the bride groom. The bride groom shouldn't have prostrated to your parents, he should have stretched out his hands to them to sake them in appreciation of thier inability to train thier daughter in the value and culture of his people or simply wave them by saying hi guys , bring me that your daughter for marriage if you wish.
Not everything about western culture is good for us to the extent of abadoning our culture completely . The most annoying aspects of the show is the pride she displayed thereafter that her kneel did not touch the ground.

No wonder the marriage institution is falling like a pack of cards. We have women that are the men of their homes and men that are Ahabs.
