Once the liquor is poured, the walls come down and the secrets come out (Carmen to Marisol)

pickabeau1: Killing... hmmm.. not sure.. i think s2 has more killing...

Reggie was a cool guy but could not get past his envy of his uncle even though he was trusted

Mr Powell.. lol

Valentina is just acting out her teenage emotions to show she is adutl

Lets see.. Javier... he may have a secret... who doesnt.. dont you

I don't have a secret .
I'd really love to see Ty's sorry ass in jail not in a juvenile home, Ethan too
I really do hope nobody got killed

My Favorite quote; I've learned to play this game the way she does with my eyes open, my mouth shut and my claws behind my back (Marisol to Carmen about Opal)

pickabeau1: s2 is crap compared to s1

They should kill of Marisol please

Carmen is boring me...

Mrs Delatore.... well she had a less active role this season - more of Valentina, Remy and Ethan

Good to see Zoila fallin in love again. I dont know why Pablo betrayed her when she is the one paying the bills

Valentina.. so airheaded and inexperienced - How can you work for the Powells

The Powells are classic! -- seeing his wife with Tony nearly killed Mr Powell

I like the last maid though being a wife to Mr Spense is a whole new ball game

I prefer season 2 cos there was less killing and more commedy.
I would have prefered a relationship between Reggie and Rosie, they kind of look cute together. Turns out Reggie is evil, what a waste of such handsomeness.
I love the way Mr Powell handled Tony Bashir so classy!
I still don't get why Valentina is so silly even with a mum like Zoila, she really should do better in the next season.
Something tells me Javier has some secret, he is just too perfect, don't you think so too?

Any fans of devious maids please come in here let's discuss. I was held spell bound through out the entire season 2, my favorite character has always been Carmen, but I also fell in love with Mrs Delatore in this season.
I cried at the episode where alejandro was shot . I really wished to see a romance between ALejandro and Odessa
My favorite romance was that of Javier and Zoila, I really hope that pregnancy is for Javier not Pablo
I think the award for the most annoying romance should be shared between Valentina and Ethan and also Mrs Powell and Tony Bashir :/

toluleke: why are they all getting married after the demise of their mother

my tots too, abi d woman na strong woman(if u knw wot I mean)

See young lady, I will advice u to end ur relationship with dis guy for ur own sake. He doesn't love u, he is only obssessed with u n dats not good. I knw u hv done wrong by collecting his money wen u didn't really want to marry him but I can assure u dat getting back together with him is a worse decision. Obssession leads to violence. U could check up the word 'obssession' on google. Find a way to refund his money, make a police reprt about the issue, involve ur family n his family and den relocate. Thank you.

Happy new month friends, please my sister who is married n heavily pregnant ryt now has been posted to Jos. Can she skip camp, if yes, how can she do dat?

sauer: for some submission is probably a true recipe for success. As vile as that may sound, even to me, some women earnestly believe they need to submit as much as is possible to their husbands in order to get the respect they crave.
Personally though, I do not believe submission is a savory recipe.

i don't believe there are any benefits for a submitting female. Just denigration, that's all there is.

same as above

I don't. But i can easily see why they do. It's a thing with ego. A man who believes he's superior to a woman will not hesitate to suppress any woman who he feels think little of his "powers". Freud has gone into the details of this in several of his writings.

for men with a huge ego, there's nothing more disturbing than a woman who challenges them. It's probably a thing with se.x too. These men find these kinds of women inaccessible.


That a woman is submissive is not enough to remove the living instincts and desires of her man. Even total submission is not enough. Desires will remain, submission or not. A faithful man would never need a submissive woman or unsubmissive woman to keep him faithful.

Well, this wouldn't really happen to me, so it's difficult to answer. But I bet any man's ego will probably make him not plead with her. In a Nigerian society where marriage is viewed as a sign of success for women, she'd probably be the one to lose for it.

For reasons of comfort, I'd believe. To reassure them that they can get the things they want from her (money, se,x, love, kids, etc) without any complaints.

Apparently to keep them in check


Where are your proofs of this claim? That a woman is not submissive is not enough reason to gift the family with "a happy home and happy children". Your conclusion seems really far from the argument. I should believe there are cases where submissive wives enjoy a rich and fulfilling life of love, kids and success. If there were no examples, wouldn't there be many more women willing to be unsubmissive.

So, one can still make a case against your position. Let it be a choice if a woman decides to submit or not, or if a man asks for submission or not. I don't think either side profits more from the arrangement. However, I do think a woman who stands on her own two feet all by herself and insist on equal partnership has a lot more to profit in her own personal life. This could however be at the risk of losing her family. If she's willing, then she absolutely should.


A pastor wrote this? He had better check his two thousand year old book again...

I find ur intelligence n depth sexy. I also love the way u presented ur points very logically. Now, no girl wouldn't submit to ur kind of man!!! Kudos bro

Oahray: When we say feminism is anti-marriage and anti-family, you femi-nazis would cry foul. Here:

1) An obvious strawman. When did men say submission is THE recipe for success? Hard work is the recipe for success, and at times such hard work is rubbished by arrogant insubordination. If you or your pseudo-Reverend knew the least about social psychology, you'd have realised that dominance and submission is a recurring theme in all human and animal relationships even between platonic friends.

2) I like the way the first two questions are asked without adding marriage to the picture, so you femnists can shift goal posts when you like. I would answer the way it was asked. The key advantage of female submission is the same as the key advantage of male submission to higher (managerial or political) authority. It helps stem unnecessary conflict and it's effect.

3) There's no real 50-50 partnership anywhere in the world that doesn't involve signing legal documents to that effect. Why? To stem future conflict. Why? The average human likes to be dominant over 'equals'. How does this relate to marriage? The man and the woman are not equals in every sense of the word.

Women are generally physically weaker than men. The average woman is more emotional than logical, unlike the average man. Many women have fluctuating emotions because of hormonal issues (pms and post-natal depression anyone?)

A submissive woman helps build up her home and earns the admiration/respect of her husband (if he's reasonable).

4) About the same reason you femi-nazis call every criticism of women misogyny. If you grab every chance to attack the generality of the male folk without ever praising the good parts as if there isn't any, if you blame them for your misfortunes (but never yourself), exaggerate bias against women but downplay bias against men, and bring up gender equality only when it suits the female-folk; face the truth, you are a bitter, man-hating feminist. If you maintain that women don't need men, that makes you lesbian.

5) Many men are brought up from childhood (a mother is usually involved in this training) to believe they are the natural heads of the family. For this, some do not bother trying to earn the respect of their wives. If you BELIEVE you are the head of your firm, how would you view an employee who likes to think you have no right to set any rules? Be sincere.

6) Same reason some people (male and female) defraud others who are trusting. Same reason some ladies lie to get men in prison for a _rape that never happened. Same reason some women maim or kill their innocent babies. It's not because they are men. It's because they are terrible persons.

7) If a man is a monster, he deserves to be treated as one. If he isn't, don't give a dog a bad name so you can hang it.

8 ) Societal norms, family upbringing (including those mothers who pamper their sons), religion. Such a view is as widespread as the view that you must never hit a woman, no matter what she does. Same source, same flaws.

9) See number (6) above. In addition, although domestic violence is bad, a woman should try not to provoke the man unnecessarily with her tongue. There's no monopoly of abuse (verbal abuse is also abuse)

10) Again, it's not because they are men. It's because they are reasonable persons. That's a man that has earned his wife's respect and natural SUBMISSION. Conflict doesn't result in happy families. It could also be because they have a wife who isn't a bitter, selfish, man-hating, blame-pushing feminist.

NB: You feminists seem to have a warped view of submission. It doesn't mean being a puppet or blind obedience. It's simply letting the other person lead. In a group of women, there's always a natural leader. For whatever reason the other women look up to her and let her lead (even without realizing it). Why is submission an issue when it involves men?

nice point u have there but men make it look like its a birthright, if u want anyone to submit to ur leadership u should be worthy of the role of a leader. Its just like the case of the president nd d citizens, nigerians r the ones suffering d effects of the presidents wrong decision. I believe a woman should only be submissive to a man who is worthy of it not just every tom, dick n harry with a tail between his legs
