Not surprising.
That's how many of them think.

I don't like this submission of a thing and will never subscribe to it because the men and husbands who swear by it never want to submit to their wives if submission was such a good thing as they claim.
However I would assume that if a woman really wants to "submit" to you. She would do so because she believes you are worth it.
Not because you're using your money to control and lord over her.
Are you alright at all?

You're a tough lady for them, hence the noise and the insecurity all over. Let them rant their frustruation and wailing
My dear, na wa o.

I'm amazed on their hatred and wailings on me, but I don't care anymore. I will give it to them hot! hot! hot! When they desire a piece of me again.

Have never experienced such kind of females in my life, only on nairaland.

Well it's good anyways. It's part of life.
No wahala.

Thanks dear. smiley

Well,not all women are bad per say, however, the poster might have had a bitter experience,. otherwise, U don't advice people to do such a thing. if God says my wife will be richer than me, so be it..But, in other to guide against such an unforeseen circumstance, I will advise men to have a joint account. Money intoxicate and money is sweet, even sweeter than sex. A woman might be carried away by too much cash in the account and start thinking otherwise. So decongest the account every month by making sure that 70% goes into the joint account...With that, u must plan together all the time..

He's right and said nothing but the bitter truth. Women can't even be successful and respect their father, let alone their man.

But the question is; Where are the successful women? Let us see them first before deciding on what to do with them.

Or are these ladies studying iceblock and millipede engineering in school with the
hope to end in a man's kitchen the ones we are talking about?
Shawama and French fries Engineering

No need getting angry at him.
He's saying the mind of most Nigerian men.

A typical Nigerian men detest marrying successful women ,it's a well known fact people rarely talk about.

Imagine a suitor telling me last two weeks, I should promise to give him all my earnings in my business. Because he said earlier I won't be submissive in marriage with the way he sees me in his spirit and giving him everything means I will be a submissive wife.

I laughed so hard. cheesy

I was like really? Don't worry I will even hand over my company to you, so u and your spirit will become satisfied I'm submissive enough. Don't worry that will be your wedding gift from me to you.

Ole! Come carry o! Because you were there when I was suffering and building my career up. Na you and your papa train me for school and gimme capital to start afterwards. Nonsense!

My brother, "Independence" and "Republic" na the same thing...
I always tell my friends that love will reduce and sometimes fade away but there are certain things one need to put in place to make sure the love fire keep lighting,and of them is RESPECT.


Without respect you can't love a person or can you love someone that disrespect you often?
That I believe is one of the greatest fear of man when their wives become successful.

Well only man with small mind can let that get to them.
I always read that most women can't handle success, when they are successful they become less submissive to their husband.

Like I said earlier, if your wife can't respect you because she has more money than you, instead of wishing her bad, it's better you let her go.

He simply means, BUY SUBMISSION.

Why then do they cry when some women say they do not want broke men?

I don't even know why people are attacking him, he only said the mind of lots of Nigerian men. Wasn't it on this same Nairaland that one went on a 2k date, only to come back emasculated because the girl gave herself a treat.

If you see the average Nigerian man talking about his worth in a relationship, it ends at MONEY. If you see his female counterpart talking her own, it ends at WIFELY DUTIES (sex and domestic chores).

The man is scared of the woman having more money, because he will lose his hold, since he knows he has nothing else. The woman is scared of the man being a hit and run because she wonders how many more will hit and run.

Outside these things, they are totally clueless and useless to someone who desires and wants more.
I fell in love with this well thought comment.

Just pray to marry a good woman.
There are many homes today being funded by the wife and the family is still very peaceful.

The woman's action can be justified if the man is lazy and not attempting to go further to enhance his career and help in building the family.
No woman will be happy seeing her husband spending her money on bars and women, cos, that's what hopeless men, who has lost sight and hope in their future do.
So, most times, these actions by their husbands breeds hate or scornful attitude from the wife.

Honestly, many Nigerian home today are being run by the women, but you won't hear their voice cos they still want to protect the image of the husband.

At the end, pray for a good woman who will help build the family and who you can fall back on when the chips are down.
Whether she's richer than you or not.

Hmm... Truer words have never been spoken!

The two things women can't manage well are:
1. Money
2. Power or Independence

When they have any of these, she starts misbehaving (There are few exceptions tho)

But make the man take am easy oo... Cos na like this witchcraft dey start oo. If your wife earns higher than you, never try to bring her down instead, let it encourage you to work harder and up your hustle.

Some women will start disrespecting the husband, if they are making a lot more money than the man. But that’s still no excuse to frustrate the wife from being successful. It’s a very ungodly thing to do. This dude doesn’t know what he’s talking about. When will people start applying Christianity to their daily lives huh huh

By self esteem you mean ego right?

Many Nigerian men have nothing to offer in a relationship aside Money.You want to make a Nigerian man feel worthless, then don't ask him for anything , spend your own money. He either accuse you of cheating, not loving, not being submissive and then breaks up with you for a depending leech.These ladies they can easily control to do their will by restraining financial flows.

Most Nigerian men feel threatened by independent /successful women because they have their own money to spend.You can't tell them what to do you can only admonish. A typical Nigerian Man is a power drunk egoistic fool.

If you are against success, success will be against you. Some people are destined to be successful in life no matter what you do to stop them. If your wife is successful more than you, Just key in to the world of success with her and be successful too. Forget envy..

It is unfortunate some igbo people have this retrogressive mentality. Even the university in the east, I am schooling in, a good number of males are against having a female SUG President, busy citing that a man is the head of a home.
why talking this shiiit.How many states in Nigeria have allowed a woman to be a sitting governor by chance like the person of Dame Virgi Etiaba except in Igboland,infact Igboland is the only single zone that have produced the highest number of women representatives in the national assembly in both chambers such as uche Ekwunife,Nkechi wogu and so many.Igboland have produced one of the highest number of woman in our nation's history that have made footprint in the development of Nigeria such as Ngozi okonjo,Oby Ezekwesili,Dora Akunyili,Onyeka onwenu etc.women are respected and recognized in Igboland and are allowed to hold positions.

Pls always verify facts.
