wisepluto: I try as much as possible to apply courtesy to ladies especially my mum and g.f but i always wonder why my old man and other men globally are shown little or no attention. For the fact that Adam was created first in place of eve, shouldn't that be enough reason for more male celebration.

dasparrow:

Why won't mothers/ladies be more celebrated than men? Especially Nigerian mothers/women and all the crap they have to deal with while living in a hostile society like Nigeria where little girls as young as 2 years old are molested and abused. Moreover, the women are turned into domestic slaves and walking incubators that are mandated to spit out male children or risk being discarded like a piece of trash. After all women go through, I can't help but continue loving and supporting my mom. Most Nigerian fathers do nothing in particular but chase skirt up and down the place. This is why many of them (fathers) are forsaken by their children in old age.

MRbrownJAY:

i am a bit lost, care to tell me what do mother do against such evil act that should make them be celebrated?! you make no sense!



the above reply is another funny one. so women who have nothing to offer in a r/ship should simply sit on their assses and do nothing all day? in marriages, both person decide what the family duties will be and what they desire in that union. if at any time, anyone is not happy with the duties OR where this union is going then they can LEAVE. the fact that some women are desperate to be married and therefore accept all this BS, shouldnt be a reason to automatically blame Nigerian men.



pls dont compare YOUR father and his weaknesses/inabilities with all Nigerian men out there. if your father was a good for nothing father then blame HIM,and no others! my father did VERY MUCH and his input in the family was as important as my mothers. she could have NEVER done it without him.

Mothers are much more celebrated because they are saddled with greater responsibilities in the home. And, a good percentage of them perform their sacrificial tasks excellently well smiley

You could never pay her for all of her roles. She's a confidant, a nurse, a teacher, a home keeper, a cook, a cleaner, a singer (rhythms), she's got no shift of duty, she's a darling. She's a mother.
