And that’s sad because then in reality it’s the woman that carries most of not all the responsibilities on her head. After 10 years most wives always look haggard and worn out, yet the husband still looks active. If a woman must contribute, it should honestly be the bare minimum. If you are a career woman, let all the responsibilities be split equally. Your husband must equally wash plates, sweep the house, cook for the children and yourself and take care of the kids, because you are equally the provider in the home. But the reality is that the woman will always carry the burden. Oga will still expect you to bounce on top of his dick after all that stress. It’s a shame women are being manipulated and they cant even see it.

If u are working and live in a country like Nigeria where domestic labor is cheap then simply outsource it(get a maid)...You both can fund this from your pooled funds...rather than fight ur spouse to wash plate before co fund the home....Domestic labor is way cheaper than what u have capacity to earn if u spend ur time working

You've always come across as one of those deliberately humble guys who go out of their way to not appear as rich, successful, smart etc as they really are by the way lol

To me anyway cheesy

I partly agree, but disagree with the "manipulation" part. I think it's due to wickedness on our part as females and maybe a bit of this shortsighted nature of ours. If guys start being asked to wash plates, clothes and stuff, the mother(female) will be the first to protest, she will want her daughter in law to enslave herself while still contributing financially to the home plus sending money to her. It's still mothers(females) who train girls domestically while allowing boys freedom from domestic chores in the same house. It's not really manipulation, we are our own worse enemy.

Fine, get a maid. What about those who don’t believe in maids or allowing a third party to live in their marital homes? What about people reading this who do not live in Nigeria? Why do you have to result to an untrusted maid when the husband can simply help out in the house? Each to their own, but I really need some women to wake up.

For me, marriage should not be based on the amount of money received may be on weekly or monthly basis. Think of how to make continuous finance that has an upward increase and ensure to diversify ur sources, cos most people keep going down financially once they get married and start having responsibilities.

Thanks for this, my dear. Don't mind these sexists men. After we still split bills with them, they won't be responsible with sharing the house chores. Later later, they'll still cheat last last, so what's the point? Let's drink garri in a mansion than eat fried rice in one room at obalende. grin

In the end, they'll still call us prostitutes. Let me suffer with my Ned Nwoko in peace.

And why are you genralising and painting evryone with the same brush, who told you men do not help from a few examples you watch on Nollywood?
there is such word as MEN program I call it, the man's JOB around the house, trust me they are more than what the woman do if you get a man that is hands-on.

That’s also true. I think women are always trying to prove they can do it all, always trying to prove to their husbands that they are worthy. Always trying to do everything to keep their husbands from looking outside, you are deceiving yourself. Stop suffering yourself in the name of love and have common sense for once. You are looking haggard yet you still want to prove you are superwoman. To who exactly? It couldn’t be me sha and I thank God my partner has the same mindset as me.

Is it a must for one to marry in Nigeria? Rubbish!! I worked hard to Acquire enough wealth, only to bring in some so called "wife" so she can come into my house and squander everything i worked for? in the name of marriage.

Maybe it's time Nigerian women starts marrying men and paying to marry men, since it has become all about money and how much men earn or their bank balances

I will never wash plates if I was being asked reason is I will see it as 2 much, I will buy my wife a dishwasher end off. This does not mean I can't wash my plates or clothes as I do so now anyway. But being asked to do so is taking it to another level.I think running after the kids is more draining than doing housework. This is where dad can give mum a break.

Depends on the kind of lifestyle the person wants to lead and where he wants to live. Lagos/Abuja is more expensive than most other cities.

Would love to marry a ride or die chick that's down for whatever. Someone who can manage whatever the situation presents without complaint.

That being said, personally, I think 500k a month should be enough

Which work will give u 500k..do I know how much an entry graduate in most ministries in Abuja earn. Some even less than 100k

I told myself long ago , can't marry until I am sure I can take care of the woman who I am going to marry and the children who I hope to raise and more importantly I don't hope to marry anyone who intends to sit home and do nothing, you have a certificate then work with it ...your four years or five years in the school does not finish in my house, we both are going to work and split our responsibility 50-50

By "giving mum a break" it already shows you've been programmed to believe child care is the full responsibility of a woman.
