It depends. If it was her first time visiting the family; maybe as a form of introduction, she shouldn't be expected to sweep because she is still considered a guest.

If it's a case where it's not her first time visiting and she's familiar with and practically considered a member of the family, curtsey demands that she offers to help.

See if u like fine,if u like no fine...If I like your business sense and discipline as a woman,every other thing na rubbish.

Because I can wash,I can help u to cook,I wash your clothes as my wife...I bath my children regularly,who says is a woman's job?

I don't just write this here to curry favour from the ladies,but that is just me at home. I wash dishes at home times without number,even my nanny sometimes gets scared about her jobs.

Men should stop setting standards because if u push a lady to pretend along and u eventually marries her,u are a gonner,then u will see what u never bargained for in the marriage.

Toh. We have been reduced to maids and cooks. Until you have properly engaged me, I remain a guest in your home and as I do not expect a guest to help with house chores unless I specifically request, don't expect me to go to your house and start forming the girl is good. The girl is not a pretender!
You're getting it wrong. See it this way. You visit a person, he or she prepares a meal, they serve the food, invite you to come and join and they didn't provide extra cutlery. This is a pointer they're not expecting you to actually say yes you'll join in the meal. If you say yes, they go ahead and provide cutlery.

Now with the OP, I believe the mother in question isn't expecting the girl to take the broom from her and help her sweep the house, she should have at least made an attempt to assist the woman. If she says no, okay, if she says yes, so be it.

This is no different from us getting up from our seat when an elderly person enters the bus when there's no seat left for them. It is just simple courtesy. smiley

She's a guest. And that means that was her first time visit.

It beats my imagination because these men will never meet half the standards they set for women. And I am not capping! They want virgins, but ain't virgins. They want a woman who can cook, clean, be a mistress in the bedroom and also a top-performing manager at work like Alakija, while they are under performers.

They can't meet half of what they set.

PLEASE NOTE THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A VIRGIN MAN: VIRGINITY IS ONLY ASSOCIATED WITH WOMEN, THAT IS WHY THE BARRIER WAS PLACED THERE FOR YOU TO PROVE YOUR MORALITY. WHOSOEVER BREAKS THAT BARRIER SHOULD MARRY YOU, BECAUSE THAT BARRIER EQUALS BRIDE PRICE. WE MEN ARE FOOLISH THAT IS WHY A WOMAN WITHOUT THE HYMEN CAN INSULT MAN. WHEN YOU LOOSE YOUR HYMEN TO ANOTHER MAN DON'T INSULT ANYMAN THAT HAS STOOPED LOW TO TAKE THE REMNANT, AND YOU BECOME A FREE WOMAN NO MORE BRIDE PRICE, OR YOU GO BACK TO THE PERSON THAT TOOK THE HYMEN FROM YOU PERIOD.

I have told you so many times to stop writing in English language. Your spelling and comprehension skills is atrocious. To even think you gave yourself the moniker: techwriter3.

She won't kill herself because na mama born am too.

See,I need my children to learn something from me not from my nanny. And u know children learn by seeing.
I have an uncle who spoilt his children with nanny and today,those children couldn't help themselves always waiting for someone to wash for them and this affected them seriously.

So,understand me ok.

But reason this thing o...

We are Africans for crying out loud, this isn't the western part of the world...

Even if it's not your potential in-law, it's very wrong to raise your legs for the elderly to sweep under them..

Instead of raising your legs, just get up and leave the place then maybe come back when she is done sweeping...

Girls of this days are not well trained at all..

Imagine the level of insult, if I was the woman, I will wipe her that broom and send her out, stupid untrained fool...

I saw this post on Facebook and it makes me question myself asking what "Nigerian men want". It irks me so bad.

Women have been debased to NOTHING that a chore has become a yardstick in choosing a wife. I keep asking myself if God did not make a mistake to have given the headship to them from the beginning.

And now, I'll reiterate this here. I also don't care about the reactions it brings. It's not my business how you feel but I must say this to men- DO NOT SET UNNECESSARY STANDARDS THAT YOU WON'T MEET. Read that again. Would he have washed the girl's father's or mother's clothes if turns were switched? NO. Many men here won't either. It degrades them after all. ONLY women should cower and wash g-pee tanks because they want to marry. Marriage only favours the women after all. It's the women who do these things I blame. You don't rate yourselves.

If you try this with me, I'll FAIL your test woefully. It is the audacity to make this a post for me. They make marriage seem so unpalatable and dramatic.

Manners should tell you that you do not sweep when a guest is around. It is ABSOLUTELY rude and that shows that you do not even respect me enough to have kept your abode neat before my arrival. And that to me, is a RED FLAG!

It also tells me that "I am not welcome in your abode". I am immensely glad that the girl in the story dodged a bullet. Good riddance.

Who are you directing your angst at exactly?

If it was your mother that was sweeping, while you were pressing phone, what would you have done? Raise up your leg so she could sweep properly?

How were you raised?

When elders are doing a chore, are you not supposed to at least offer to help?

It's what guys do easily.

This is a type of conversation that needs to happen real life. Someone needs to slap you back to your senses.
And what is the said man doing that he can't sweep where he stays with the mum?

Women set standards for men all the time.
Women set financial standard, height, stature, physique of the man the want to marry.
But it is a crime for a man to have his own standards?

The both of them!

The mother for having an entitlement mentality.

And the son for not being well trained by his mother to have collected the broom from her to sweep rather aided his mom to fuel her entitlement mentality!
