Olodo she is already working AKA has a business.

Then you can be referred to someone who has the tool but don't know how to use it. You simply follow dictionary definition but don't think out of the box. Okay, gender equality "access to equal rights and opportunities". In this case "right to work - engage in productive activity to earn money". I'm asking her if she lacks such right. Mumu

At least you know why I said "gender equality". And quit with the insult you write like a 15 year old overfed boy

I do not recall advocating that women be housewives.
The man's earnings are for the upkeep of the house, school fees etal, while the woman's earnings are for her own use. That's how naija women roll, no be so?

Na soo

You aren't sensible for calling the husband mad. It's obvious the woman isn't working to support the family and the man is probably overworking and committing all for upkeep and others, sometimes men are left with no spare money of their own then all of a sudden you discover upkeep money is being splitted. I won't fault her if she's saving it for rainy days but there are chances it's for her selfish gains. She could end up borrowing the husband the money when the family is in need. I've seen women borrow their husband money from what they milked from him and he must pay back as they always claim they got it from a friend. That's selfishness laced with lies and deceit.


Sorry I didn't mean mad as in crazy, but mad as in angry. You have a valid point, but I was talking more from the point of view of what I've seen: a man provides, but sometimes we all fall on hard times, and I've seen when the family is able to eat because the wife was saving extra. If she gave the exact budget, and they spent the exact budget, there would have been no savings. This is what I meant... I didn't even think of those selfish ones.

I don't mean to disrespect any man that provides for his family. I'm a family man myself, and encourage my wife to actively save money out of the family budget.

That's right. Its the man's condition we should consider. He who wears the shoe knows where it is pinching.

What if he's making sacrifices like trekking to work, skipping meals just to meet up while the wife is tasking him just to keep some aside.

When you give your wife certain amount of money monthly as upkeep allowance, that doesn't mean all the money should be exhausted every month. Every prudent woman always keeps something in reserve in case of emergency. Any wife who doesn't do that is thoughtless. A man related how his wife would collect money from him even to buy N20 salt. This continued for years. Then he fell ill and had to undergo surgery, but he couldn't foot the bill. He was literally dying. He said he couldn't believe it when his wife brought out the money and paid the bill. Since that date he said he appreciated his wife's uncompromising prudence on housekeeping expenses.
Dats or mum's era. This days clothes n gadgets has taking over the place
