I wonder o. My mum will never allow my brothers' girlfriends to assist in chores because they are just girlfriends. They want to turn somebody's daughter to a housemaid.
Shut up, I am sure the mother wouldn't allow her to sweep if she offers to.

But because of lack of respect for her own parents, she carry her attitude outside and she has been chased. Her next boyfriend mother will still chase her too.

We all know most of you are just online feminist.

We never forget Aunty Linda.

This entitlement from inventless Vessels is highly nauseating.

Your own mother, you can't help...it's visitor you want to force to do what you ought to do.

Anyways, a time will come when marriage will be thrown out. Let me see what some daft people will do with themselves.

This is not about relationship or setting standards. It is about NORM and RESPECT let me not say culture. When you are in a place and you see an elder trying to do something, you offer to help whether you are a guy or a gal. How much more going to your friend's house, seeing his or her mother sweeping and even up to sweeping to your feet and all you can do is raise your feet for her to sweep. That's lack of RESPECT and not any fucking standard raised.

W This world no hard at all,we humans are the ones making things hard for her self.
First of, you are wrong to tell me how my house should look and what I should do in my house even when you are around.The woman owns her home and she can sweep any time she likes.Moreover, there might be some circumstances where by that is the only opportunity and time for her to sweep at that particular moment.
The woman is also wrong to send the girl away because she didn't collect the broom from her.That is a useless mentality, forget the fact that we are Africans or not.The fact that the girl did not collect her broom to sweep does not mean she is a bad girl, every one has their good and bad side and no one is perfect in general.
So as for me, the girl is not to be blamed here but you are wrong to claiming the woman is sweeping at a particular time.
oga come out of this please, that girl lack respect and should not be welcome into any home .

I agree with the bolded, the guy himself lacks morals allowing his own mum to sweep and the lady too spoiled matter by raising legs for her, either way she should have collected the broom and not raise leg for the woman, it's actually wrong where I come from, no matter who the elder is family member or not, whether it is your own home or not.

I also feel the sweeping in her presence was just to elicit a reaction, it's strange for a potential mother inlaw to start sweeping the particular place the female guest of her son is

the young girl dodged a bullet. I'm super happy for her. Such family isn't meant for her

Btw, the son is in the right position to collect the broom not the guest.

I don't understand? If you and mom think it is right to sweep when a guest is around, makes me ask myself if she gave you the necessary home training.
so my mum should stop sweeping because of you?

So if I come to your house and your mom is sweeping,or cleaning she will stop?

If I were your fiancé, I would gladly help your dad/mum carry her bag/baggage or assist them in whatever activity or chore they are doing themselves just like I would do for my own PARENTS or older ones.

I think you are just a spoilt brat who does not deserve to have a good man to herself.

I saw this post on Facebook and it makes me question myself asking what "Nigerian men want". It irks me so bad.

Women have been debased to NOTHING that a chore has become a yardstick in choosing a wife. I keep asking myself if God did not make a mistake to have given the headship to them from the beginning.

And now, I'll reiterate this here. I also don't care about the reactions it brings. It's not my business how you feel but I must say this to men- DO NOT SET UNNECESSARY STANDARDS THAT YOU WON'T MEET. Read that again. Would he have washed the girl's father's or mother's clothes if turns were switched? NO. Many men here won't either. It degrades them after all. ONLY women should cower and wash g-pee tanks because they want to marry. Marriage only favours the women after all. It's the women who do these things I blame. You don't rate yourselves.

If you try this with me, I'll FAIL your test woefully. It is the audacity to make this a post for me. They make marriage seem so unpalatable and dramatic.

Manners should tell you that you do not sweep when a guest is around. It is ABSOLUTELY rude and that shows that you do not even respect me enough to have kept your abode neat before my arrival. And that to me, is a RED FLAG!

It also tells me that "I am not welcome in your abode". I am immensely glad that the girl in the story dodged a bullet. Good riddance.

Signed; Bitterleaf Feminist.
Fuçk your senseless opinion.
It's okay to set a standard of the type of man you want: HIGH VALUE AND TRADITIONAL, but it's not okay for a man to set a standard of wanting a woman who knows how to cook well, does chores well and also a virgin...

WHAT KIND OF SENSELESS DOUBLE STANDARDS PLAY IN YOU PEOPLE'S HEAD?

Who the hell do you think you are and what do you bring to the table in a relationship, apart from your private parts that has more likely become public?

YOU MUST BE SICK!

You guys deserve people with pretentious attitude. I don't need to sweep for your mother to show I am well trained. Go and get your mom a maid.

It's not about pride price. It's about respecting the elderly woman.
Does it mean, you can't render help to elderly people , unless they pay your pride price?
UpInTheSky:


Yup, definitely nauseating to want somebody's daughter whose bride price he's yet to pay to be playing housewife for him. Men like him who expect women to bend over backwards to prove themselves usually have nothing to offer. If he were trained (clearly he isn't), he was supposed to take that broom and do the sweeping, not expect his female guest to.

Had this been a male friend of his, I wonder if he would've ended their friendship because of this. Obviously not. But apparently different rules apply to female guests, smh. He will clearly be one of those husbands who can't boil water because those values weren't instilled in him as a male child, and/or who expect his wife to do all the chores in the house because apparently that's her duty.

Kudos to her for not being a pickemeisha with no self-worth.

Where does one begin to address your folly? Is this a sincere submission or just a gateway to draw attention to yourself? Your bare-chested DP seems persuasive of the later. And then, "you want to eat your cake and have your pancakes back." Your profile provides a brief but conclusive psychoanalytical evidence of your temperamental makeup.

It's not worth the while sifting through the load of pink-lettered, hormonal drippings laced in the crap you called your opinion. If you're not satisfied with your gender by birth, reassign yourself and get a dìck and come into a man's world let's see how you measure up.
