We can all see why some marriages won't work; when the whole responsibility is vested on the woman like she is a magician. So men are for bed and provision chores. Your proposition is faulty.

I am a woman. Domestic chore is my favorite hobby, especially laundry. But I won't be able to do it all the time because I work. So, I will engage the services of a house assistant, dry cleaner or washing machine.

I am a woman. I like to cook, and can cook well. But I won't be able to cook fresh meals everyday because I work. So, I will cook quite a quantity and refridgerate. Some times we may have dinner outside.

I am a woman. I like to baby sit. But I won't be able to because I work. So, I opt for a nanny, daycare or even my mum.

Men should get a hang of these things and stop making marriage a privileged burden for women.

Your marriage can be successful when you both work in love and understanding.

@Bold:

Classic!

Privileged burden?

Hahahahahahaha!

Well i can ask for 50-50 doesn't mean that i can't let you make most of the decisions... smiley,there won't be any need for me to even hang on it if i know my man is wise and intelligent.

How do you marry the two? (50 - 50 and making most of the decisions?)

Do you believe a husband and wife are equal even though you would let the husband make 'most' of the decisions

What is the indices of him 'making' most of the decisions?

What i meant is this,we can discuss something together and along the line after much deliberation,his decision is more practical or favourable than mine,so i let him go ahead.

or sometimes after so much arguments,i will let him go ahead and do what he thinks is right,for peace sake sometimes but it has always worked on my favour because it doesn't always work the way he thought it will cheesy,so like a prodigal son he comes back and says you were right. smiley

When next we found ourselves in such situations,he won't hesitate to let me have my way.

We are equal but gifted differently.In all there should be harmony in the home and this harmony must be in sink with nature.Marriage is a give and take.

For the fact that i might let him get away with certain things,doesn't mean because i am weak or dumb,only because i want peace.
Over the years,i have learned to pick my battles. smiley

Naturally, that is common sense talking. If he has a better idea, why should I insist on my way? That's selfish.

That's compromise... I am sure he will say same too for some situations smiley

Extremely true. I however do not agree with 'nurtured' gender roles. If he is better at something, let him do it/direct it.

edwife:

Also true and I am very sure it's same for him.

People in relationship with us will always get away with things.

In all, I wanted to point out the 'a husband is the head/take final decisions' talks flying around her is wash and does not apply in a practical loving home (I don't do theory shit. Different strokes for different folks).

Decision making is much more complex than 'I am the head/ I am the tail' stuff.

You look at who needs it more, who is more affected, who is more knowledgeable, the situation on ground, if you have a concrete reason to object etc.

Thanks for the response. cheesy

It was a deviation from the normal pre-emptying and choosing to see/read whatever you want to popular in this area

The you = not you grin
