alklas:Almost 50% of homes in Nigeria have the woman both as provider and homemaker. And these are typically women who married under a traditional umbrella. ![]() 2. A man doing chores IS NOT supporting the woman. Rather, he is doing his part in keeping the home and family that belongs to him, too. Thinking that doing chores amounts to supporting the woman amounts to arrogance and irresponsibility. ![]() |

emirate9:1. This here is illogical reasoning on your part. 2. A woman in a traditional marriage setting is typically assigned the role of doing chores and taking care of house-related issues while the man sits as the sole provider in the marriage. Outside of the traditional marriage settings, these gender assigned roles disappear completely. ![]() 3. When the same man was single and did all the same chores all by himself, was a mumu then too? ![]() 4. Your mum may have lived as a glorified housekeeper in marriage; that doesn't mean all women or wives want to take after your mother. ![]() |

emirate9:Aside washing plates, are there no other chores a man can help with around the house? There are some men who will never lift a finger to help their wives no matter how fagged out she is. A woman cannot be representing a man when it's time sort out PHCN wahala, put on the generator, change the bulbs, or weed around the home, then you still expect her to be sharing bills with you, cooking and washing for you. Did you marry a wife or a slave? |

emirate9:This is the particular brainwashing that are fed women to cause them to buy into this submission in marriage nonsense. How does a man, who moments before was a mere individual in the stream of individuals that populate the world, go from being a commoner to a king all because he decided to marry a wife? The same goes for women who think of themselves as queens. No be brain damage be that? 😏😏😏 2. This same man, who later signed a contract to marry a woman, used to grind his own pepper, wash his own underwear, and even scrub his own bathroom. Suddenly, the same man now believes himself beneath all of that because he saved up money to pay bride price for a woman to wife him. Na wa oo! ![]() |

Kobojunkie:1st n foremost Male are naturally "Heads" in any setting down to the animal kingdom Literally every man that has a home n can provide is a king, traditionally Men symbolize " crown" on women if i choose to see myself as a king and my woman see hersef as Queen ... its demonstrate self esteem/ self worth .. No apologises When you are a Bachelor, your circumstances is understandable ... infact you see nosey neibor urging Uncle go marry ... maybe you live in jupita Equality does not exist anywhere in real sense, one party is doing more or less if scaled |

![]() From vast experience, the only 'equitable' situation in marriage is a husband who provides all needs + wants with a wife who handles the domestics + childcare. Any other arrangement puts the wife at a serious disadvantage. You just look for the man worth getting the short end of the stick for. If as a wife you want to co-provide so that your husband will join you in the domestics, na OYO be your case. You will build a lifestyle on both incomes and realize that bros is too 'big' to do domestics after a while and you can't complain much. A whole director is whinning her husband doesn't cook or clean? How na! If I am to advise younger women, for peace, look for a man capable to provide singlehandedly all needs and some wants. So that when you find yourself scrubbing pots or thinking up a meal or caring for a sick child by 2am on a work day, you book a luxurious spa massage and carry on. And while at it, ensure you have YOUR own money else, that's another level of emotional gymnastics to deal with. Ire o. |

emirate9:1. This has been found to be largely untrue as nature leaves it up to each species to decide for themselves how they would choose to be led, if at all. ![]() 2. Again, this delusional idea you hold to comes from postulations from within your traditional/religious circles and have little or nothing to do with nature. ![]() 3. If you choose a personal delusion, then it means that the delusion holds true ground only in your mind and not outside of it. ![]() 4. Bachelorhood/Spinstresshood were never meant as placeholders for marriage; even organization in introduced into this world in that default mode and outside of the choice to engage in reproductive activities or whatever else, that default remains the default. That is why individuals do not lose their individuality even in these arrangements(marriage included). 5. The law of the land recognizes equality of all individuals; therefore, it is false to assert that equality does not exist. ![]() |

As a guy please flee from any lady with all this conditional mentality in marriage Marriage is for both parties to contribute their best to ensure it's work once you start apportioning duties omo I go leave you run |

wallaze:. Funny that men place conditions on women requiring them to prostrate to them in marriage, are averse to having women place conditions on them in return. ![]() |

| Re: If Income Comes From Both Husband & Wife, The Two Must Do Chores Too - Lady Says by Kobojunkie: 7:02pm On Sep 15, 2025 |
archpope:How many men actually carry a stick to fight these thieves? ![]() Single/divorced/widowed mothers have been adequately and capably defending their homes in the absence of men in the picture. It is about time we start asking where this idea that it is men who defend families really comes from. ![]() |
| Re: If Income Comes From Both Husband & Wife, The Two Must Do Chores Too - Lady Says by Kobojunkie: 7:03pm On Sep 15, 2025 |
alklas:If you indeed believed responsibilities are shared, then why assert that a man doing chores implies him supporting the woman? ![]() |
| Re: If Income Comes From Both Husband & Wife, The Two Must Do Chores Too - Lady Says by emirate9: 7:23pm On Sep 15, 2025 |
We4all:chores like sweeping the balcony/backyard, chores like going to iya michael shop to grind pepper or add that chores you feel if your wife's friend meet you doing they wont ask where is your wife Likewise there her women that wont do some chores tew in the house no matter how available they are, for instance my woman will never never wash the car even if e dirty pass Lagos, she wont carry gallon to go buy fuel for the generator... fix bulb lialia So it not just peculiar, Men have certain roles in the houe same as Women .. however we can support one another when necessary |

Dogalmighty17:People are just lazy this days. Days of hard labor is a thing of the past. We don’t fetch water We don’t fetch firewood We don’t wash clothes with hands There are blenders and other appliances that aides cooking. A month meal can be prepared at once and packaged inside freezer. We can even shop online. When this generation of humans complains of house chores, I wonder exactly what they mean. Some families we have 2 - 5 maids living with them with grown children. |

Kobojunkie:Did you say 1% It’s too small |
| Re: If Income Comes From Both Husband & Wife, The Two Must Do Chores Too - Lady Says by Kobojunkie: 8:07pm On Sep 15, 2025 |
lilyheaven:1% may in fact be an overstatement given the state of the Nigerian economy. How many people in that country do you think can afford a constant water supply, a blender, let alone a washing machine? ![]() |

Men, Hussle hard and be very financially stable to a point that you don't need a penny from your wife... It will prevent the nonsense this woman is saying |
| Re: If Income Comes From Both Husband & Wife, The Two Must Do Chores Too - Lady Says by We4all: 9:23pm On Sep 15, 2025 |
Kobojunkie:Lol....Of course! I can recall asking her to leave, and her response was: "over my dead body". Unfortunately, most Nigerian women are like her, and will prefer to die than leave their deadbeats and abusive husbands. I wish them luck! |
| Re: If Income Comes From Both Husband & Wife, The Two Must Do Chores Too - Lady Says by Kobojunkie: 9:27pm On Sep 15, 2025 |
We4all:Only recently, there was a story about such a single-married Nigerian woman, whose estranged husband, after squandering his wealth elsewhere, came back to claim property she had acquired during the years he was missing from the picture, as rightfully his too. If the woman had divorced him, he would not have had any such audacity, but because she remained married to him even in his absence—she kept and used his last name everywhere she went too—, he showed up with a lawyer demanding that he be allowed to use the property and assets to his benefit. ![]() I was not able to verify the truth of that particular story, but it did cause me to consider the potential risk single-married women put themselves in by remaining tied up in marriage— a contract — to men who are literally absent from their lives and that of their children. ![]() |
