She does nothing but I don't mind. However, my frustration is that this woman does not take correction and instruction. She does not appreciate my toil under the sun. I work my ass off on a sailing basis to bring good money back home at the end of the month but all she sees are my deficiencies such as not always helping out in domestic chores, being romantic on her own terms, and being assertive.

I can go on and on. Man, I am even thinking along the line of separation for now but I have two toddler sons and that is what is withholding me.

Women are impossible.
Na you cause all that rubbish na. If you give women an inch, they will take a mile. Stand your fucking ground and say no to all that bullshiit and watch her change or you are too weak, begged to marry her, knelt down to propose, paid a hefty bride price or just the type who does anything she wants to satisfy her. When we say men should be Alphas and redpilled before getting married, people vilify us. How in the world does any woman whine that I don't do house chores when I provide everything and she just sits her fat ass down doing nothing and Lumi will tolerate that nonsense?

No be ME. Women became bolder about house chores because they saw that men do it.

10 Things I have personally learnt in marriage
1. Lots of women are lazy in marriage. They mostly claim to go to church but are very secretive.
2. You cannot satisfy a woman
3. Marriage demands' pressure can push a man to his death, to crime, misdemeanor and even imprisonment
4 Women tend to see marriage as an escape from the hard work they performed while single, but the opposite is the case
5. Marriage reduces the life span of lots of men
6. Women also make huge sacrifices that are unforgettable like child birth, putting the home together and raising the kids
7. House chores no dey finish, what you do today, you will still do tomorrow, so just so whatever your strength can carry and continue later
8. Woman can be very provocative with words, they can push you beyond the limits and expect you not to retaliate
9. Most women aren't really what you think they are, they change with your ability to do or inability to do
10. Finally, marriage still is the best thing to happen to a man. I am always extremely happy whenever I see my children.
You made good points except that Number 10.

I think you meant a woman because if marriage is the best thing to happen to a man, why are they dying young then due to responsibilities and pressures. Your number 5 point explicitly said that. So...

N.B: You don't need to get married before you have kids.

That dude just want to blame his wife for certain reasons, but doing nothing as you mentioned above is impossible for a woman not to engage in single one thing over their..might be biggest lie.
He is saying that she does nothing, she is saying he does nothing or not enough at home. They are saying more or less the same thing about each other. The difference is that he doesn’t mind her doing ”nothing” as long as she stops nagging.

He also wants her to appreciate his efforts, which is pretty much what she wants too. But since he doesn’t see her do anything, he can’t appreciate her.

Getting married to an African man is like being sentenced to life in prison. Once they pay their peanuts bride price, they think they own their women and can do whatever they want with them. There are still some good men out there, but the bad men overshadow the good ones.
What defines a good man to you? Someone who helps wife to wash dishes and clean the kitchen of cook meals? May y'all looking for idle men undecided

Women of old were stuck and had no options out of the bad situations theu called marriages, why do you think they encouraged their daughters to pursue an education and money? So as not to end up like them.
hmmm,they encouraged their daughters to pursue education and money.After acquiring all of that,are they better off?Are they still not complaining and nagging up and down?

Maids were mentioned in the bible too si help is not a bad idea. The bad thing is when the man has to pay the help and the madam now hijacks that to make the help a slave who does everything for her. Read Proverbs 31 to see some of the things a virtuos woman does for the maid.
Bottom line is, your wife shouldn't either turn the maid you don't want the house help to turn to. Domestic chores are sometimes more than paying jobs. That's why you are two in the family. As I'm typing you now,I just finished bathing my kids for school. While I was bathing them, she was making their meal. Now I'm resting on my bed, she's dressing and feeding them. When she's done, I take them to school while she rests a while. When I go to work, she'll go pick them from school, bathe them, feed them, make meal for the family, wash the dishes and so on. If you love her, you'll help her

Men have too much damn free time. That’s why they have the time for multiple side chicks, can go to the beer parlor to drink, watch football etc while the wife is busy slaving. They need to contribute. Women do too much free labor for them.
When the husband was busy working for 7 to 8 hours to provide for his family where were you, oh you didn't think of that? Now the man comes back from work tired and decided to relax by taking a chilled drink and also watch football, then the selfish woman that you're start getting angry. You women are just too self-centerd.

Everyone in the family has his or her own role to play, the wife does her own which is to keep the home, while the husband does his own too by providing and protecting his family. The early you understand this the better for you. Stop using the word slave, nobody forced you to get married, if you're not ready to do what marriage says then don't get married.


Shalom

They have peace of mind, they can pursue their interests, their bodies are healthier because they have less stress due to the toll marriage takes on women. They will not suffer from depression because one son of Adam is misbehaving when she can just stand up and leave him because she will still end up fine and can take care of herself.

Men should help their wives out with home chores, I do help mine.

The thing is that most of the outgoing type of men are rarely around to help their wives with chores, and they are the type the younger woman looking to marry goes for, the ladies like the 'we are outside' kind of men until they get married and have kids to discover that it has its disadvantages

A man can still ball outside and ball inside, create a balance so you can be there to help Madam when she needs help
Made sense.

Why won't you call it slave when virtually all of you are a financial liability to the man. Ask 100 ladies what they want and they will tell you they want a man that will bring money for them, pay their rent, feed them, clothe them and you expect that man to be washing toilet and cleaning the house with you at the same time angry

Una mumu never do
Never seen creatures that want to eat their cake and still have a bakery.

I keep telling them, if my wife need help washing dishes, she should get a dish washer, washing machines and vaccum cleaners, theses are stuffs invented by MEN to ease some of these complains.

Imagine a bricklayer after coming back from work is expected to help wash plate and clean toilet, all because he wants to appear as a good husband?

The insatiability in our women is really killing marriage today. Turning men into wimps.

I swear I go divorce you marry house girl

Remain single and unmarried so you won't get old before your time. Simple.

Social media and western culture has really destroyed you. Is even a big risk for any man to get married to you with this your absurd mentality.

Many Nigerian guys don't want to participate at home. I don't know if it is laziness or something else.

I think the ones here may want to try it but the ladies here no gree. You see them pushing strollers, go shopping and washing dishes.

A female Nigerian student would slave for her school boyfriend for 4-5 years without complaining.
-She'll cook and serve the young man and his friends.
-Wash his clothes.
-Clean and tidy his rooms/kitchen.
-Wash his toilet.
-Attend to his sexual needs in marvelous ways.

All these for free!

Same girl will get married and start to complain after just 8 months that house chores are too much for her. Same chores she was doing for her school boyfriend for years without complains! undecided


If you want to practice feminism, stay in your father's house! As long as marriage is in your dictionary and you're getting married in an African settings, get ready to work!

Lazy dimwits!

The first woman who commented to say married life is not easy just sounds naive and clueless. What did she honestly expect or think it would be like?

Didn't she grow up in a two parent household to see what parents go through and how their needs often take the back seat for the sake of their children? What am I saying sef, even a one parent household ought to teach you that.

Please what do they teach intending couples in pre-marital counselling? Because some things are basic common sense knowledge from just watching our parents or other married folks in our world and space. You can learn valuable things from simply observing others.

It looks perfect. while I was growing up my mum does her part by bathing and dressing us before taking us to school, sometimes we go on our own cos we are 5 in number, then she comes back to continue preparing for her business because she sells food in one of those secondary schools in town. So after that she move to her point of business where she sales food till in the evening wen all of us go to her place of selling to eat our Afternoon food and also continue to help her with her business till we come back by 4pm or so. On my dad part he leaves the house as early as 8am in the morning to his shop where he does his technician job till in the evening by 6PM before he returns. To be honest it wasn't easy for both of them, cos sometimes I see it in their eyes. My dad escaped death twice because of the nature of his job, he always deal with gas. It got to a point my mum had stop instruct we the boys to go to our fathers shop and help him. It wasn't easy I won't lie. But as we were growing up we started helping out, my elder sister start doing anything that has to do with cooking in the house so my mum relaxed a little bit in that area. Sometimes my dad if his free he do cook for the house too, he was one of the people that encouraged me to start cooking on my own.

So that's just how it works, but it wasn't easy for both of them until we the children start playing our own role too by helping out. But there's never a day my mum and my dad quarreled because he or she is not helping each other out, rather is we the children that must do our work and if we fail my mum report us to our dad for serious punishment. So that's just it, everyone with his own role to play in the family, like I said it's not easy but you have to do what you have to do to keep the family going, it's called responsibility in English language.
