I observed that the woman for whatever reasons always play the underdog in marriage. She is often regarded as a 'helper' playing almost a docile role in decision-making in the home.

Most people use religious precepts to relegate the rights of a woman to the background: as being the house-keeper and 'child-bearer'. But in modern times, many women play the role of 'provider' in the home, therefore forcing the man to also assist with household chores.

In modern times, Even in civilised climes, women now seek to either being independent parents or share same authority as the man in the home. But where the man does not feel comfortably with this, the result is divorce. I want to assume that this is the major cause of domestic violence in majority of homes.

Most women feel more comfortable being single parents than to submit to the egocentric excesses of the male folk.

What is your stand on this issue. I personally speak as a male.

Same reason its not respected at a site or cement factory, each gender is better at different things.

So because westerners decided to be foolish we must be forced to join them in their foolishness? No wonder we have so much confusion in the world today. Nature made man and woman to fulfill specific functions and to change that is to bring confusion. If a woman hits you its okay but if a man retaliates they say Ahh!!! don't you know she is a woman and a weaker vessel. The hypocrisy sickens to the heavens. A male is a male and a female a female. Even in the wild the males are in charge in almost all species of animals. Gorillas, Lions etc. That is the way nature meant it to be. The confusion we have in the western world where the female folks have been given so much power while the men have been virtually emasculated is as a result of changing the natural order of how things were meant to be.

Here in Africa A MAN AND A WOMAN CAN NEVER BE EQUAL!

One drunken man is more intelligent than three women with PHD!

A wife will forever be under the husband

Feminism is a frustration agenda that may drive gender equality seekers to doom.

As a matter of fact, i have discovered 3 reasons why feminist and supporters agitate for this.
1. Their level of depression.
2. Pride- which can lead to negligence of responsibility.
3. Being hypnotized - false teachings and advice from peers.

"A real woman will submit to her husband and a real man will love such woman."

Men and women are not equals and there's nothing you can do about it.


Fela's mother took your fellow men(what they couldn't do on their own) to Britain to ask for our Independence, let that enter your skull today

The Boko Haram/bandit bullshit was created by men for your selfish reasons and greed, why will women fight for something you men refuse to logically mutually agree on because of power?

I love gender equality and so should all Men out there.

Men have been dealing with a lot of responsibilities from birth.

Thanks to the feminist movement because a lot of those loads will be shared equally.

Dumb people want equality but when you ask what they're bringing to the table, they get annoyed lol

I always say that marriage is not for everyone. If a woman feels too big to be under a man, she is free to become a single mom.

After all, men and women have equal opportunities nowadays. There can never be two captains in one ship.

OP, you are free to make your wife the head of your home - just don't shove it down our throats. One of the best things that life gave us was freewill.


Or she's free to marry a man who doesn't believe his partner is "under" him.

Op said she is a man! Mugu girl lol! A woman can never and should never have equal rights with any man! The man will always be the head of the family. A man should love, protect, and provide for his family! A woman should support the man. That's her role ... She shouldn't be the head in any instance

That a woman shares in decision-making doesn't make her the boss. Marriage is not an organisation. It is a union where both parties should be equal shareholders. Marriage is the only human institution where you have two heads giving moral instructions to their offspring and managing the affairs of the family on equal terms. That way, a harmonious relationship will be established.

You may have the privilege of a humble , virtuous understanding Wife so you may not understand.

You may never understand unless you are in other's shoes

I am suprised though that you said you are 54 Sir.

Hmmm, what have observed over the years is that a man will willingly marry a woman he loves that does not have a dime and invest in her to make her strong financially in future. Let the table turn, and the man loses his job and means of being the bread winner of the family, and the woman takes over and weeks after taking care of the family responsibilities, she will begin to grumble and tell the whole world that she is the bread winner and her husband does nothing but watches television. Women by nature are wired to take instruction from the men. That is how nature deems it to be. Anything contrary to this, will cause chaos as we are currently observing in Nigeria.

Not only are they wired to take instruction from men but the vast majority are lazy and don't want any kind of stress....that's why they all aim for rich men
