Goodday, Fellas. When a woman starts earning higher than the man, would the respect still be there? I asked because in most cases, i see these women being disrespectful and are insurbordinate to their husbands.

The respect would still be there depending on the foundation that the marriage is built on.Pride would definitely come in but with love and discipline it would be suppressed.




Anyway, Agriculture is life

It depends on how high and the lady's personality.

No because it is because of money that women are asked to respect their husband but if she's now earning higher then the man should respect her because roles have been switched

In most cases, reverse is always the case. Most of these women tend to be humble and loyal to u when u are earning better than they do. But when they start earning better than u do, that's when u will see their true colours. Only very few women aren't that way.

This is one of the reasons some men don't allow their wives to work. Just full time housewife.

It takes 8 or 10 yrs for a man to feed hz family and hz wife, buh jux ordinary 2 days wey a woman feeds her husband she go dey like deputy jesus, complaining upandan, shoutin at d man unnecessary, take more of when she started earning high, omo she go carry the whole family 4 head like say she done make am 4 heaven.

Women are hypergamous in nature...women love opportunistically..no woman loves you just for who you are...know this....know peace...
Women don't seek an equal for marriage...they always want a superior in all ramifications

Talking from experience
It takes a high level of humility to be submissive when you earn better... I used to be so arrogant when I see figures in my bank account, no guy ever talk to me and I listen
Na so guy man persuade me do joint account with am, I do joint account finish I must take permission before I spend money, sometimes he doesn’t grant my request of needing money, I’ll have to beg him before my request been granted... that shit humbled me

Actually NIGERIAN women act bossy when they earn more than their partners, I've seen this severally, unlike foreign women that are very humble.

This could be one of the reasons some Nigerian men don't allow their wives to work(full housewife).

Apart from her, who else do u know? By the way, how do u know she is a perfect example? Have u lived with her b4?

Another good example is "folorunsho Alakija"
Me saying she is a perfect example mean that in term of respect and submission she's good to go..have you ever heard of any relationship scandal in their relationship??

They won't. Bannies are not meant to be at the top

They may be that way without u noticing it. Note: Not every woman that lacks respect and submission to their husband likes bringing their private life issues to the public. Another reason is that some men may be suffering as a result of that but may decide to keep mute for one reason or the other.

"Not every woman that lacks respect and submission to their husband likes bringing their private life issues to the public"
That shows she respect herself and her marriage..

Make no body lie una...o. A woman will never have respect anymore for a guy starting from her brother, father, boyfriend, husband etc if she has money more than they do. I have seen it happen countless times. When my I stayed with my aunt who had an FG job and also running a profitable business. I and everyone in that house were taking orders from her. She would talk to the husband anyhow and tell him to do anything he wants to do; and the man who had no job at that time will not be able to do anything.
Also my female neighbor that year would say things and back it up with money and things would happen whereas her brother will just talk and talk and talk and talk and nothing will happen. Let any lady earn more than you; she would show you pepper. Anyone who does not know this, is living in denial.

Lol, no bro. It's not always that way. I know that there are women who respects and are submissive to their husbands irrespective of how much they earn than their husbands. However, these women are very rare and very few to find.

Thanks for agreeing with me..they exist but are rare..

Bro, no be lie oooo. Many of them tend to be very, very difficult to talk to.

Once your wife starts earning higher than you, just know it's over, except you're willing to overlook so many things that you ordinarily wouldnt tolerate, including having to constantly walk on egg shells and turn deaf ears to gossips.

I know about a man who was unemployed and the wife worked in the same place as me. Then one day, somebody messaged him about how he didnt have a wife cos the lady was busy philandering in the office. Nigger couldnt even confront his wife but went and reported to his family who later turned the heat on the wife. When I spoke to her about it, she blamed it on the hardship but didnt really seem remorseful.

Another instance was when my former boss told a story about a certain time that he was low on cash and he asked the wife to assist in paying the kids school fees. He said the wife's attitude during that period made him vow never to ask her for any financial favour again.

My other boss who is now retired but whose wife is still a senior staff and even drives flashy cars was also adamant about how a man's respect in the home front was highly dependent on his financial prowess. Although the wife is rich and career oriented, he said majority of the family expenses were borne by him at the time.

Also while growing up, I noticed that many of the women who had government houses allocated to them in the neighbourhood didnt really live together with their husbands even though they had been married before. One practically drove the husband away and warned him never to show his face again.You didnt really need to look hard to understand why.

So based on personal experience and anecdotal evidence, it is safe to surmise that living together with a wife who earns higher than you. is indeed an uphill task and may not be one for a man with a lot of ego.

Make I do the Stat give u.. The percentage of woman that will respect u even when they are earning more than u as the husband is like 10% to 100% while the rest no go even won know see u are existing.. The worst pass is if u are now jobless again.. It will just be as if u are dead waiting to be buried.

One of the reason why i kick people with my rain boot



Damn.. Nasty.. I'm out of here

This is really bad. 2moro if he eventually makes it and starts treating her like a slave, people who don't really know their story would start insinuating that the man is wicked.

My younger sister exactly that way. When she got married(to a Naval officer), the guy handled her with wisdom. He refused to allow her to work(of which i liked) but he provided her needs in the home and for her. He intend to provide a shop for her to sell things. They have joint a/c.

So, women are to respect their husband because money. Is that what u mean? By the way, where did u get that info from, that it is because of money that women are asked to respect their husband?
