What Is The Role/expectations Of A Woman In Her Home And To Her Husband?

I came across this beautifully written poem about the woman. And in this days of uncountable break-up, marital disharmony, divorce etc., methinks we should also emphasise on solutions to a stronger family and the marriage institution instead of encouraging break up.. I am of the opinion that one of such ways is for the woman to play her role diligently in the family and to her husband(remember Late Pastor Bimbo Odukoya)... and in that way, we will build our homes and win the love and heart of our husbands. I don't think they will have reason or cause to even batter us. or What do u think? Read the poem

[i][/i]Woman
Artfully and delicately moulded,
the creator's masterpiece; his perfect delight!
His choice as man's help-mate;
Much more than a mere missing rib!

Woman...
The epitome of beauty and glamour
Adorned with dignity, full of strenght,
splendour and vigour

Man's mother, sister, friend, and helper
Affectionately configured, warm and tender,
Skilled in the crafts of home and hearth,
diligent in homemaking, ordained to productivity!

By you, God's dream came true, you produced the seed
that bruised the serpent's heel
your mouth is filled with wisdom,
faithful instructions emit from your tongue
the weaker vessel you may be called
yet you are the mother of all men!
You are the virtous women! (Prov 31 Vs 10-31)

I think that's only dreams. Let's talk about the real world and not what we expect them to be. Same for ideals of a man. What we want is not what we get.

This is my first post.I love this poem about the woman. Its an intelligent one. Real world or not a woman has got to play some roles in her family, she has to be humble, wise and supportive. she shldnt be a destroyer of he home by what she does or saysthats d message

Destroyer of the home. Sure not. I tell you some women want a humble man. In fact they want him weak.

I agree with u some want a man they can control and instruct. A woman in her right senses should have good manners, humble in character and in tone and respect for her husband. what do u think? And u see thats the best way to win the heart of ur man. not arrogance.Arrogance leads to problems and quarels.

I agree with you. My former lady thought I was not godly, humble, whatever, enough. I am a strong man and I don't need she asking her pastor whenever we have to decide on something. What's a man if he cannot manage his family. Needless to say, the man has to address his wife with respect. I mean she should be Senior Commander of Staff, yes?

"your mouth is filled with wisdom,
faithful instructions emit from your tongue" i love this excepts from the poem. if women deeply understand the meaning of this. they will make thier home wonderful. A woman need not to rub shoulder with a man. Women tongue dey always dey busy. she shldnt provoke the man unnecessarily or insult him. Women should imbibe the qualities of humulity and respect.

Some one ....anyone, write out the role of the woman plsssssssssssss
Is she supposed to iron and wash the cars.

Is good if she can iron. I know how to iron and cook and I'm a man. Anyway ironing your man's shirt is not a shame. The shame is only if he can't do it himself.

and the car

In my country the men always wash the car.

wat ya mean they shouldn't rub shoulders cuz i get it just wanna be sure we on d same page.
well i agree on d respect part but it's gotta go both ways. the success of a marriage and happy home depends on both the husband and wife. it's a 2way thing.
women are expected to take care of d kids, cook, clean d house and basiclly be a house wife. I agree but it shouldn't be d woemen's job alone. the guy should support and help with all d chores too.

Italian man is good cook

yea but mii mama gon kill me if i bring one home!

How is that?

You role is what you want it to be. The only thing that matters is that noone is forced into a role that he/she is not interested in. It's very mportant that the overall work in the household should be shared by both partners.
And even more important, no-one is commander in chief, important decisions are made jointly

It's very mportant that the overall work in the household should be shared by both partners.

Depends what you mean by that. If it means you wait for the man because you done your part is not very mature. I think that they do what has to be done. Sometimes couples deisagree, but still something has to be done. Aren't they supposed to trust each other and not be too tight about things all the time.

As for Commander of Staff, I worked in the Navy before and some people are lazy, I tell you.

I think you know what I mean. If both partners go out to work, you cannot expect your wife or partner to do all the household chores while you relax in the sofa with a glass of wine

That's what I'll do actually, relax in the sofa with a glass of wine waiting for her.

What possible reason can she have to take that position, except for prejudice?

Or jeolosy perhaps.

chrisd:

How can you be jealous of excessive vanity?

And who told you I care what your mother thinks.

chrisd:

And who told you I care what your mother thinks.

No, chrisd, I'm not going to date you. Thanks for asking, but men, especially Italian men, are not my type
