How were you raised?

When elders are doing a chore, are you not supposed to at least offer to help?

It's what guys do easily.

This is a type of conversation that needs to happen real life. Someone needs to slap you back to your senses.

See ba babe you have to be calming down,it could be the mother way of testing the lady... In my opinion the lady should have collected the broom. It is just like me seeing someone elderly lifting a log of wood but I just passed by, morally speaking it's bad
I still maintain it has nothing to do with standard, look every gender have their own characteristics and it is lack of respect for these differences that are causing problems.
Why did her own son fail her own "test"? undecided

The lady was a visitor he brought to his own home, right? So why did her own son stand and watch as his own mother swept? undecided

What audacity does she have to judge another's child on standard even she does not judge her own child? undecided

This would have been absolutely none of my business but since you made it a public statement and thereby advocate it as a standard for your readers to imbibe, I'm obliged to make my point.

Now, to the emboldened as highlighted; you need to let your wife have the dick dangling purposelessly in-between your thighs since you picked her for her business sense and she probably picked you for your domestic sense.

What a Wuss!

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.

Now I don't want to be judgemental but you might find out the lady got some questionable characters.

How have these "cuiltures" which are set on unfair standards helped responsible mold you as an individual? undecided

This is the year 2022 in which you all still complain of how unjust your Nigerian laws are, how even your police disrespect and treat you like garbage, yet you sit here justifying what is an unjust act in the name of culture, proclaiming how you were responsibly molded by it? undecided

Are you certain you are being honest about the true impact these unjust cultural idea have had on you?, undecided

How old are you please? I asked because you reason like a 7 year old. Immature.

If you are matured enough, you will know that when elderly ones are doing something in the presence of young ones, courtesy demands that the young one should help out. But if you still disagree with me, i will say wait until you become a mother/grandmother and come back here to argue. Bunch of unreasonable feminists everywhere.

So why did the woman's own son stand and watch his mother sweep for his own visitor? undecided

Why did her own son not show courtesy to his own mother? undecided

It is unreasonable for a mother to judge another person's child by standards she would not even hold her own child to. It is not only conceited but bothering on disturbing to do such. undecided

that's the test if it's not clear to you yet. One thing I've come to realize with most ladies is this tussle they have with the mother in law's on who should control the son but time will tell when you also bear children and it's their time to get married in the future. Even if you can't do it as a lady fake it even if it's just the first time.

I reason like a 7-year-old because I called out the trash your gender did? I can see your sense of maturity.

Guy, read my comments all through. I will not become that kind of mother and grandmother. Me, that will fly my son and his girlfriend outside the country for treats. How will sweeping and chores my problem when I will have people take care of that for me? I don't know what sort of life you live or if you are mediocre, I am not.

I will not use substandard and archaic mindsets into vetting what a potential life partner will be for my son. I have no interest. I am not like you with a poverty mindset.

Once again, emancipate yourself from mental backwardness.

Once a man gets married, his loyalty must be to the wife. It's not a tussle. Mothers-in-law should also know when to draw the curtain. If they so please, they can marry their sons. I will never become unnecessarily emotionally attached to my sons and wouldn't want them to either.

1. You "test" another person's child by standards you don't hold up to your own child. Isn't that foolishness in broad day light? undecided

2. On who should control the son? undecided

Marriage is meant to be an agreement between a man and a woman, meaning no third-parties are allowed, not even by law. No sane woman wants to be married to a man who is still tied to his mother's apron same way no sane man wants to be married to a woman who is still tied to her own mother's apron. These things are simply common sense. undecided

Back to the topic abeg, this woman did not train her own son to take the broom from him when he sees her sweeping so what right does she have to test another person's child on that which she Failed to teach her own child? No be wickedness be that? undecided

so what do we call a woman who thinks sweeping a house has a traditional meaning.

Village woman?
