Now, this takes us to another level of the argument that I would rather leave for now - family inheritance because, a lot of worms will wriggle out. However, its obvious that secured men, have no issues with women demanding their rights - they have no time for these kind of things because, they are seriously engaged and busy with important issues at hand i.e. thinking out ideas that would help mankind e.g. creating, inventing and competing with men from other cultures/countries either in being the first to climb Everest, to invent trains, aeroplane, ship, cars, satellites, mobile phones etc to worrying about women taking over the world.

i must comment on what i noticed >>> is it true that he was shot and the neighbors were so dull as to not bother to call 911 >>> well !!! if this is true >>> this fact further tells me that complacency is not alien in the US

my humble suggestion is that Nairalanders who live in close to his neighborhood visit his place to ascertain the truth of this *rather than sitting down here doing nothing* >>> if the bad news is true >>> the next step is to send a team who would send condolences on behalf Nairaland >>> eulogizing him the way some here have done >>> who agrees ?

My husband and I are living testament to it. I work from 8am to 4pm and my husband works from 4pm to 12am. My husband is the one who showers for our 5 month old, feeds her, gets her dressed to drop her at my mothers house before I get home from work. He cooks lunch for himself and leaves some for me to eat when I get home. He is the one who cleans the house, not because I am lazy, but because he likes things done his way, and no matter who cleans it, he is never satisfied.
I make more money than my husband, but if you see us outside, you can't tell who makes more money! I am presently pursuing my Masters degree, which causes my husband to handle more of the "womanly" things around the house. He does this not because he is a dummy, or I have put some serious Juju in his food; but because he understand that his success is tied with my success. He is secure with himself as a man, and does not care what people think or say. If more "African" man can be like him, the world will be a better place!!

[Marriages can and do survive out here in the West. The first thing we as Africans need to understand is that as husband and wife we choose to get married, not because we are looking for someone to dominate or someone to be domineering, but because we want to find that special person who will be our helper!My husband and I are living testament to it.
