Sonnobax15:We are not talking of pressure here, we are trying to improve the African traditional man. Your ancestors provided for their home and lived above 80. But, your woke men of sharing bills and become lazy, still die before 60. If you are not fit and prepared stay away from MARRIAGE. You didn't commit any sin. |

ExudeLoveToAll:According to you, "the man is not the bread winner. Anybody can be the breadwinner" You can as well say: "the man is not the head of the home. Anybody can be the head of the home" |

Uchesis:I didn't. It's you that didn't comprehend. Let me break it down... It is the duty of the man to foot the bills - Correct. It is the duty of the woman to foot the bills - Wrong. |

Kobojunkie:So your children that you have authority over are your slaves and have no rights? Your employees that you have no authority over are your slaves? You people will let bigotry delete your common sense then start wondering why your life is a junkyard! |

You don't have authority if your wife doesn't contribute anything from her earnings to the home needs. It's called sense of belonging |

My brother, if you work and she works also, share bills but take a higher percentage If you earn 400k and she earns 350k per month, why should you be the only one to pay all bills even if you are in Nigeria? Sit down with your wife and work out percentages that works for both parties to contribute to the running of the home If she is not working or doing petty trade, you may want to chest the whole bills if you can women should be partners, willing to contribute to the running of the home; the man should also share in house chores to balance things off Don't claim to be an 'ODOGWU' and die untimely. Times are hard now! |

Kobojunkie:Not necessarily because of money however, of a truth man is/should be the authority/leader of his home otherwise what befall a troop without a leader will soon befall them. Happy new week |

It's was never our way of life to split bills our wife |

GanagiBitrus:According to your submission if the man becomes financially incapacitated he isn't the head of the family anymore because he can't foot the bills since he is no longer the bread winner. Been the head of the family doesn't mean you give out the highest finances in the home, if the man isn't the highest earner he isn't the head of the home anymore, been head of the home means u must bring the highest finances no Wonder women are quick to run the moment they see they now earn more than your head of the so called home leading to plethora of divorces in the society. Headship if the home doesn't mean you must be the highest earner in the home, if this is your definition of headship then marriage in the coming years will die a natural death. I can never put myself in a situation where men are not men because they earn less than a woman , the world has changed passed the era where only men work and provide for the family, provision is gender neutral just as earning is gender neutral. If your headship is based on finances alone be ready for divorce when something happens to that finances, it's an era where husbands and wives come together and put forth all resources, emotions, finances, tolerance, wittiness, meekness and all for the betterment of the home, irrespective of whether the man earns more or not that doesn't make him less of a leader in the home. Don't tie your leadership based on money, you will never experience a lasting relationship when that factor gets affected, a word is enough for those who are wise. |

descarado:Who drops the bigger responsibility is the leader. These things are common sense. It's always not common with ladies I know that. So I'm not surprised. Women hustling is just a support and not the bigger stake |

SultanOfPuna:Exactly, if you depend on money alone to have authority, one day life will test you and your wife will disrespect you. |

GanagiBitrus:Modern economy is messed up. No money. So men can't function as they should. Either they earn money at great sweat, become megalomaniacs and be beating the woman in the house. Or They can't earn anything, or be sharing with wife, their prick will shrink down,...they come online and be crying on Monday morning or looking for underaged side chick to satisfy their ego tendencies. It's all messed up |

No right thinking man would split bills with a woman, it would only lead to disrespect. women will always be women, allow her give you what she can. regardless of how little. Most women are selfish, and stingy when it comes to their own money. So don't expect much from her. |

Onewazobia:There is no truth to that old fable that has only helped make many a small man believe he is entitled to that which he cannot of his own wit earn for himself. 🥱🥱🥱 Think careful before responding so you don't drag this on and waste both our times here. If it were a truth, it would have been codified and signed by authorities but to this day, it has never been. ![]() |

tollyboy5:It is always not common with ladies even though in Nigeria alone, almost 50% of marriages are supposed to be headed by the females who are reported to be the breadwinners? ![]() 2. Women hustling and paying all the bills are just support for their deadbeat/hobo-sexuals of a husband? ![]() |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by Kobojunkie: 1:33pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
beardedboy:1. Your very forefathers and your fellow men to this day believe it OK to disown those same children at the drop of a dime. If given the chance, they would literally kill, not abandon them too. ![]() 2. You mean employees out in the West or the ones you have in Nigeria who are treated no better than slaves in many instances? Even the Nigerian government treats it's people like slaves, so what in the world were you thinking asking me these questions? ![]() 3. Look who's talking! 🫤🥱🥱🥱 |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by Onewazobia(m): 1:38pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
Kobojunkie:Nothing to think about, I think ant are wiser |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by Kobojunkie: 1:39pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
Onewazobia:Nonsense! 🥱🥱🥱 |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by beardedboy(m): 1:58pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
Kobojunkie:Zero substance. 1. I don't know about your forefathers but mine weren't children killers. And they definitely didn't treat their children as slaves. 2. Maybe you treat your employees as slaves but I don't. Even in the west, employers have authority over their employees. But your myopic mind thinks all forms of authority is enslavement. 3. Thanks for admitting your bigotry. And, no, I'm not a bigot like you. |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by Kobojunkie: 2:03pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
beardedboy:1. Oh, wow! This is all now just about your stories with your own father and not about the traditions in marriage in Nigeria? And this is what you consider to be substantial, abi? ![]() 2. Oh, wow! This ain't about what is generally obtainable but of how you treat your own employees vs how I supposedly treat mine? Slavery is judged simply on that, right? ![]() 3. Abeg, allow me move on to more meaningful things at this point. 🙄🙄 |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by beardedboy(m): 2:20pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
Kobojunkie:1. Forefathers and father are very different words. That's a weak and shameful attempt to be sleek. 2. I speak for myself. Why can't you speak for yourself. If you want to generalise, bring your data! 3. No one is holding you. Moreover, I won't be responding to any of your salad anymore. |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by descarado: 2:53pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
tollyboy5:Marriage has no leader. That is the koko. The earlier you guys absorb this, the better. Its 50/50. Partnership. Abi no be what the constitution said? |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by AutoConsult: 3:52pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
That's a real man right there. 50/50 men can't relate. |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by tollyboy5(m): 5:09pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
descarado:Which constitution. Lol.. even kobojunkie better pass you. It has never been 50/50 and it's not even about authority or no authority. Is just who feel the others need to be protected |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by Kobojunkie: 5:29pm On Sep 29, 2025 |
tollyboy5:The other poster is actually right. What you keep insisting on is not codified in even the law of the land -- it exists only in the minds of individuals who hold these ideas. (Your traditional laws are not, to this day, documented or signed off on by the people, rendering them of little to no value to most of those who adhere to them.) 🥱 2. By 50/50, I believe the other meant a partnership with is upheld by the fact that Nigeria is a signatory to the UN Universal Human Rights agreement that declares by which all humans are recognized as equals - irrespective of status, age, religion, gender, or creed. 🥱😐🥱 3. Protected? The majority of crimes against women in Nigeria are committed by the very men in their lives...fathers, husbands, boyfriends, relatives, neighbors, boss, etc. What protection does a woman obtain from a man who, for example, abuses her? |

Kobojunkie:Let's end this discussion here. It's a men's world so men protect female they love from harm coming from other men. |
| Re: It Was So Strange: Man Feels Discomfort After Sharing Bills With His Wife. by Kobojunkie: 12:23am On Sep 30, 2025 |
tollyboy5:Be sure not to raise your boys or any boy you love with this mentality, as the world is, even today, already moved well away from this mindset you continue to hold fast to. ![]() |

Kobojunkie:Reality is different from illustration. You're carried away with wokeness. And not reality |
