5minsmadness:
Yes ma!
Op you are on ya own

Lateralmaths:
its a compliment

Sophyrocks:
This is still not the answer to my question. We know this scripture very well but very few people practise it.

Calm doooooooooown.
The op created two threads. One for men and one for women. No one is arguing here. The op is asking what is the greatest thing a woman can do to keep her home happy. Check out the male thread.

Sophyrocks:
Then what are you doing in this thread? Are you a wife? im not addressing you but the Op. I am not arguing with anybody. we are simply discussing. U dnt like it? Head to your thread made for you. Oya!!

Lateralmaths:
My wife and I practice it.

Lateralmaths:
This is my question o. thanks

Sophyrocks:
I dnt have a problem with your question. I have a problem with the way you presented the post. You didnt present the thread for males that way. Did you accuse them of lagging behind in their use of 'weapons' to keep their marriages? No. But you did that here. Biased you are!

Sophyrocks:
Thats commendable. you would amount to the very few people who practise it. Do you use the bible to counsel?

Lateralmaths:
I don't see any bias here. men also lag behind in their use of weapons.

Lateralmaths:
Yes. The bible has answers to everything.

Sophyrocks:
You didnt state it in their thread and that shows you are biased. anyways, have you counselled a woman who has gone through domestic violence before?

Lateralmaths:
Why do you ask?

Sophyrocks:
A Yes or No will do.

I am not a supporter of the 'wife must submit' syndrome ravaging some Nigerian homes.
My reason is not far fetched and is given below:

Those who proposed that a wife must submit to her husband's whims and caprice must have had a generalized view that men are more Intelligent than women which in reality is not the case.
Therefore, if all men are not more intelligent than all women, it will be very foolish to say that a woman must submit to her husband regardless of who is more intelligent and can make a better decision, unless the submission we are talking about here is a kind of artificial one that's only meant to make the men feel better.
So, op I don't agree with you.

Don't worry, be patient. The 'wives' will soon come and exhibit the weapon on this thread

Lateralmaths:
will you agree with me that men and women are wired differently and so have different needs. What a man needs most from his wife is respect and what a wife needs most from her husband is love.

Lateralmaths:
I think the reason most wives have issues in their marriages is because they don't put to use their greatest weapon.

A wife's greatest weapon is stooping to conquer. It sounds foolish but that's the truth. Men have ego and the solution to that is stooping to conquer. A man responds to a submissive woman.

Find the secrets of wives whose husbands listen to them.You will find out that such wives understand this mystery.

What do you think is a wife's greatest weapon?

ArewaSweetheart:
lol at stooping to conquer

Maybe i dont really get your question sha, but in my opinion, a wife's greatest weapon in her marraige is wisdom. She has to always apply wisdom in whatever decision she makes. She should avoid acting before thinking.
So to me, wisdom is key; & not necessarily stooping.

donpeey22:
Everybody needs respect and love. If you think otherwise, don't respect your wife and don't expect her to love you, and then enjoy a 'blissful' marriage.

carefreewannabe:
A man with ego issues? No thanks, I will pass.

Lateralmaths:
all men have ego. you hear?

crackhaus:
I think you have missed the concept of submission by a long shot, bro.

Lateralmaths:
wisdom will make her know the importance of submission.

Lateralmaths:
men respect naturally that's why you can't find guys having issues amongst themselves like ladies. Women love naturally that's why you see ladies greet each other with hugs,pecks etc.
In marriage above all a man must learn to love more and a woman must learn to respect more.

carefreewannabe:
But not every man has got ego issues.
