Same career women that you guys always attack?
Can't cook
Too busy
Denies you sex
Cannot be controlled
Not submissive
Not respectful,etc

Lol.
You are just confused
Today they're extolling the virtues of the same career women who they say are masculine and not good for marriage. Same people who open threads about how horrible their career women are.

It's hard to tell what they want. Though we all know what they really, really want.

It's only in Nigeria that human beings, women specifically, are called liabilities. Because they are so full of anything themselves.

...I am.not against a guy taking care of a woman...but no guy or man can solve all the problems of a woman ...a woman that is always depending on a man to carry all their problems and burden and family problems is a lazy woman that does not want to work but depends on men to solve all their problems and carry all their burden and family problems... they are some women out there that are very successful in life and achieve a lot because they decide to work and also use their talent and skills in achieving things in life and be successful without depending much on guys to carry all their problems and burden..
How long will a girl be depending on guys .
Will a girl be depending on a guy forever ...if Natasha, okonjo iwella, yemi alade, all those Nigeria female footballers..super falcons , players , female ministers in Tinubu government were all depending on men and they were not focused and did not work they would not had gone higher to the level they are now and they will not have been successful in life and not have achieved anything but be a liability
Those women you're mentioning, how many of them exist in their industry or roles at the level you're describing? Very, very few. You can't use the minority case as the rule. So that has nothing to do with being a "liability" if there are women making it. There are also men making it, so why can't the men who complain be like the governor and president who take full care of their families without demanding money from women before their homes can work?

It'll not shock you that many men are liabilities, apart from the money they bring in. So let's stop referring to human beings as "liabilities". Each person offers their value. And you certainly don't expect everyone to be a government official.

But don't complain if women start working more. Because what we see here is all the talk about masculine women, evening newspapers, stubborn women, career women—and it's still said with condemnation. Not to mention, the way nairaland boys want women who make money, if women said they want the same we'd have endless threads about goldiggers who bring nothing and are liabilities.

You guys need to decide on what you really want. Homebody or a breadwinner. You can't have both. Unless you decide to be both yourselves.

Just get a career lady..a lady that is already working.. to date and marry in future ..she will not stress you much and not depend on you much for financial help and be a much burden to you...since she has her own job or businesses...but all this girl's that are idle and unemployed will stress you and over burden you and put you in financial pressure in which you will regret later
Waiting for that time of the year that you guys recycle stories about career women. From fertility, to no time for you, not prioritizing you, being stubborn, refusing to cook and clean up after you—it will be another means to bash women.

But what can we do for boys who can't afford women and need one who works so that they can remain irresponsible?

What about single fathers? They don't exist? For every single mum, there's a single dad.
Nah. They only demonize the women, because since they're Nigerian men they have no care or responsibility for their children. Some of them making noise here are single fathers who have denied the women, or products of single women.

But in Nigeria they are secure denigrating single mothers.

So you expect to be prioritised over a sick child? Because you're having a bad day, a sick helpless child should be cast aside so you can be petted? You need to change your username from Dpsychologist to Dpsychopath

She will prioritise YOUR children over YOU! Know this and know peace. It's better you don't have kids if you expect to be prioritised over them
There are a lot of teenagers here who don't know they were prioritized over their fathers, otherwise they'd probably be dead.

They think life is all about having a personal slave, sowing their oats and having another person harvest them. It's why they find it so easy to leave relationships, because they're their only priority.

Oh, I didn't make it clear. The Guy is the son of the woman not my brother's son. My brother was trying to scold the boy that at the age of 16 bedwetting is wrong. The woman got angry and it all turned to a quarrel.
Sounds like a lot. Just 2 questions:

1. Did he not know that the woman had a special needs son before marrying her? I don't think scolding him will change that issue if that's the case. And it's probably why he got that reaction.
2. Does the laundry involve a machine and dryer, or does he need to use a scrubbing board? If it's the former...

Dude the Op other monikers are Sirchiboy, ibtxxo and etc, if you spend time in nairaland you will see his different stories and how he is 46 years old and have nothing to show for it, to me it's obvious he is looking for a woman that will hustle for him while he wait around.
I grow up in Delta state and I have seen so many men like that depending on their wives while they lazy around.

I have no problem for women supporting their husband as long as the husband is also hustling too, I will support my partner because I believe when 2 partners works together the home is run smoothly.
My advice was for specifically the OP because all he does is complain and complain

My junior brother was dumped by his American wife. The son who is a teenager was still wetting bed and na my brother dey do laundry. He complained and quarrel broke out. The lady said blatantly she prefers to choose her son over him and the whole thing led to separation. Now they are divorced.
Then he's a single father or what are you saying here?

Why did he complain about doing his son's laundry or is it because he's a special needs teenager?

Marrying a single mum is very risky, except husband is late. The magic of the past can be brought back to life in one sec. Remember he once occupied that space before you rear head.
There's a word for that, and it doesn't involve single mum. A lot of you just need to stigmatize women with children who aren't married.

I am somehow dumbfounded about the latest object of bashing nowadays aka single mom's, they get ridiculed, abused and blanket condemned without people knowing thier unique stories on they fell into being single moms, some became so by falling for men who are terrible and phisically abusive, alcohol addicts, betting addicts, armed robbers, outright bone lazy men who dont work while thier wives farm etc are so called husbands too to this women that we are foolishly heaping abuses on, so if you don't thier stories yall should shut the Bleep up and go get a job
Some of them are even the children of single mothers but come here to condemn their mothers in these women, because they wish their fathers cared about them. It's a transfer of aggression.

I don't like it when able bodied individuals think it is OK to game the system while depriving so many others of the opportunity they deserve by it. Yes, there are probably some old folks eating cat food because they can't get money to eat from the same government. 🥱🥱🥱

They always have to add that part.
Every man is paying all the bills online. grin

As for OP's brother, I had to go read his story well. He has to be responsible for the child. He might not see the child immediately until he is calm, but if indeed they had a bond, then he a phone call would suffice until tempers are calm to know what next.
I mean, if they didn't add that, you wouldn't believe em, right? Badge of originality right there. grin grin grin grin

I didn't read the story throughly, though. Primarily because of the changeling that's the focus of the tale —the pronouns are discombobulated. Lost interest. Because why should anyone have to suffer through the unpaid labor of finding out who is who, just because they're trying to help the OP?

But if it's his offspring then he'd better take care of it.

My guess is the man may be off with another welfare maid somewhere else , repeating the same pattern, and not telling his family. Some habits are hard to break once one starts. 🥱🥱
Benefit scroungers? Partners in...

This guy insists the bro pays all the bills, so it's is getting blurrier. The closer you look, the less you see.

This story get giant k-leg. How come your brother dey pay rent and all yet na government give them apartment and your brother pays child support ? Where in the world is this? 🥱🥱

The marriage should rightly end but since government no dey sleep for where dem dey, demand the woman go straight and ensure she file for divorce from the man in courts and ask that child support payments should be reviewed so that she can get more from your brother in the event that she is to raise the child all by herself and case closed. 🥱🥱🥱

As for the child, the woman should set him up to receive therapy and try her best to get him to accept what has happened now that he is still young and can maybe handle it much better. One thing she should absolutely never do is lie to him about the circumstances that led to the man also abandoning him. He gains more from knowing the truth and not having to have his brain diddle with lies for a long to only for him to be shattered later by the truth. 😩😩😩

The guy "pays all the bills" though.

Tomorrow if the child grows up and considers his father "A collateral damage" you will jump and blame the woman and accuse her of poisoning the mind of the child against his father.

Majority of men hate their children but they will never admit it, you will realize this whenever divorce occurs.
You've pretty much said it all.

If she gives him the child to care for, he will find a way to dump it on his mother or any other female family member. Or the evil step mother. Most men aren't interested in their children's upbringing, save a few.

In the last two years, things have not been going well with my brother and his wife. My brother will call me and lament about his wife's behaviour, he told me that anytime they have a misunderstanding, this lady changes the key and locks him out in the cold. Though he's the one who pays the rent and all the bills, the lady gets child support and spends lavishly on unnecessary things while the apartment is given to his wife by the government.

But the last one she did, my brother left the house and swore never to have anything to do with her again. Even my brother did it to the extent that he requested the DNA of the son; unfortunately, he's the owner.

This lady has been begging everyone, and both her parents and some family members have travelled down to our place to plead on her behalf, but my brother insisted he's not interested in the marriage again.

He was scouting with one of our cousins before, and we thought that when he got tired, he'd move back home as usual, but this man has gotten an apartment and does not let anyone know the location.

The worst of it all is that he did not talk to his 7-year-old son and didn't take on any responsibilities for him again.

The boy keeps crying to see his dad, but my brother keeps saying her mother is only using him to get his attention, saying the boy will see him when it's the right time.
angry

This lady called me last week and said he wanted to pack from the house and my brother should come move all his belongings, but my brother sent me back to her that she should throw everything away, he mentioned that the lady can frame him up or call the police for him and turn to legal battles.

I believe whatever happened between them, the boy did not cause it, and cutting off his only child emotionally and financially is not self-protection but abandonment.

I know marriage can end, but fatherhood should not. You can abandon marriage and still fully show up as a father. The two are not the same contract

All the family are tired, and even I, his closest brother, am tired. I only want him to be a responsible dad to his only child.

Please, what can I do? I really love my brother and want peace for him, however I pity his child.
BTW, can someone determine the actual gender of this child?

When you all want to crucify a woman, you'll tell us the same story: man pays all the bills, blah blah blah, but emphasis on he pays all the bills. Is it something they teach you guys in the school of female crucifixion? What was a family man supposed to do anyway, that you guys like telling us this line? If he doesn't pay the bills, who should— her parents? Her ex boyfriend? Her family??

Strungup78 comes to mind.

Until we hear from this woman, nobody can give any real advice. Especially not with the "he pays all the bills" line intended to destroy women.

I got this puppy recently. I wasn't around so I had a family member arrange everything. The delivery (from Abuja) and feeding it for like 2 months till I came back.

I told her to get a German Shepherd but when I came back I could tell it wasn't a German Shepherd. I automatically thought it was an Alsatian.

The dog is so energetic, like he cannot rest for a second except when I lock it in the cage. It likes to play and my other dog (Eskimo) avoids him like discrimination levels lol.

Anyway he's about 4 months now and i believed he was an Alsatian, till this morning I released him in the compound and he ran around for like an hour (I kid you not)

I asked chat gpt what I can do to make him calm down and posted his picture only for chat gpt to tell me he's a Belgian Malinois I.e those dogs used for herding sheep, races etc.

I checked the pictures online and the resemblance is quite uncanny. But I'm not really an expert on dog breeds.

So to the experts in the house, please what breed is this dog?
Funny looking malinois.

But it's cute. Nice puppo.
