angelfallz: It's just just unfortunate that people think housewives are lazy. It is usually people that have never really done house chores that think housewives are lazy The chores are on one part. The work is really on the strategic running of the home. |

microlincoln: Well, I don't too but that's Nigerian mentality. A woman can bring something to the table too and not just sit home lazy likewise a man mustn't be waiting for his woman to contribute. If she does... Fine, and if she doesn't he must be man enough to take care of the family A housewife does not translate to laziness. I think it's very narrow to discount the running of home or converting the raw resources (money) provided by the husband to finished product (a well-cared for family). |

microlincoln: I must say your piece is good but it seemingly advice women to go for money in a relationship or marriage. Of course I hate to see women struggle or suffer in relationship/marriage and I know quite know well that a man should be the sole provider in the home but I'd rather you advice your fellow women to get a man who is hardworking, ready to share and committed. @bold: 100% A man earning more is not constant, can change. A man also earning more doesn't mean he is financially intelligent or willing/committed towards his wife/family. I also don't agree or believe that a man should be the 'sole provider'. |

Congratulations madam.
You say 'men should not leave their wives during trying to conceive' yet you constantly scorned your husband's support and did things outside your agreement.

GboyegaD: Those wannabes are realizing that they do not understand the meaning of the word simp. I actually checked 'simp' online and it generally relates to a man 'losing' his self-respect /dignity while chasing a woman who doesn't like or appreciate him. So it seems a man cannot be a 'simp' if: 1. He is a relationship 2. If the reception of his attention is returning the favour. Toor! |

RightToReject: There's no point disputing the fact that many a time; once a sane man meets that one woman who meets his one point core longing in a woman, he can do almost anything possible even at the periphery of conventionalism to show his love to her and willingness to have her for a keep.

Very interesting.
It would be insightful to know what formed the woman's request.
She didn't want to change her name? She loved marriage to an Abayomi? She wanted kids to honor her late husband?
And why the man agreed.

Family › Re: Help: My Mother Stopped Praying by bukatyne(f): 4:21pm On Nov 01, 2020 |
urchcoded: I'll try to make this as brief as possible. I stopped believing in God finally last year. I grew up in a very religious Christian family, but I became an unbeliever after analysing religion. I'm the only one living with my mother and few weeks ago she engaged me in a discussion about why I'm allowing the devil use me, I told her the Devil is not using me as I don't believe in him either. I went on to carefully explain to her why I think God probably does not exist and even if he does,there is no way to ascertain that Christianity is the right religion amongst other thousands of religions. Honestly I wasn't trying to get her to stop being a Christian or anything I was just trying to let her understand my stand because she has been worried for a long time. That night around 1am I woke up from sleep to hear her crying, I tip toed to her room and saw her kneeling down praying and crying uncontrollably she was actually praying for me and for God to reveal himself to me. Seeing her cry hurt me a lot and I couldn't sleep the rest of the night. Waking up the next morning I noticed she didn't do her normal morning devotion and prayers. I wasn't happy with the development but I ignored her. She came back in the night and still didn't pray. I had to reluctantly ask her why she was no more praying, she coldly replied me saying "Shea you said prayer doesn't work and there is no God" and she walked away. I've been really really upset because I know she can't actually do without religion. This is what she has known all her life, she's a Sunday school teacher. She needs religion because her life is centered on it. My father died Early this year and I'm due to go for NYSC by next month. pls how do I resolve this situation cos it breaks me to see her so sad and dejected and it might be worse when I leave. Should I pretend to have had an encounter with God or something. I really could use some advice here. If you don't have any just avoid the thread. What exactly is your concern? Your mother has 'agreed with you' so why are you unhappy? |

@OP: You are calling God in this matter with all these rules? How old are you? I ask because 1. If you are old enough, you will know no one is an Island 2. If you are old enough, you will know that anyone can seregun (male or female) 3. If you are old enough, you will know you can't do everything at your time or everything you want. There are people/time/relationships/outcomes to consider. 4. If you are old enough, you would know that foundation of God is love hence the loveless life you are describing there is unchristianlike. Causal sexual relationships are wrong. 5. If you are old enough, you would know that sometimes, you look away from disrespect and move on. 6. If you are old enough, you will understand that there are destiny helpers and the higher you go, the more you need humility. 7. Etc. So how old are you?  |

Very very terrible practice.
I don't understand how the girl who has parents fell into this mess without her parents' knowledge.
This is an issue modern feminism and activists should take very seriously: this is misogyny:
1. You procure teens and pre-teens for men's pleasure under the guise of temporary marriage (what does that even mean)?
2. You label same girls as ruined with no hope of decent marriage because they are not virgins.
How do these Clerics justify these acts though? Does it sound humane to them?
This is so sad to read, it's basic sex trafficking. |

crackhaus: You're always on point, okay not always but mostly... 
Honestly, there's nothing out of the ordinary in their family dynamic if we are to go by what are on those screenshots. Perhaps the fact that she used the term feminist to describe her husband is the reason why people are reacting.
I mean take a look at this particular tweet below – she says he didn't know when his own kids were writing exams. Doesn't that imply he was not a hands-on father, or perhaps he was, but not to a large extent? This kind of contradicts that whole feminist narrative.
I get her point though, the summary of it all is that her husband supports her aluta hustle and does not hold her down/back, which would be typical of muslims.
What I don't know is if this makes him a feminist, or simply makes him a supportive husband which is what every sensible man with a sensible wife actually is.
However, being the latter (supportive) does not automatically make one the former (feminist), and she may have being conflating the two. I am always on point I read those posts and saw nothing extraordinary. The standard of Nigerian husbands must have fallen if filling gas cylinders and preparing a kid for school in the morning is 'simping'. Considering her religious background, I get her referring to him as 'feminist' even if all she wanted to say is 'supportive'. I would group humans into two: 1. People who look at labels and not actions: once you claim the right label (feminist, anti-feminist, red puller, Christian etc.) they don't care about your actions. 2. People who look at actions and not labels: they don't care what you call yourself or don't, they look at your actions. People triggered by this thread and similar threads across divides fit into box one. Some husbands here might be more hands-on than Aisha's husband. However, the label 'feminist' automatically makes him a Simp. On the flip side, the label 'feminist' makes him perfect and ideal even though he did not know when his son wrote common entrance. |
