80% of Nigerian women who are financially better than their husband are disrespectful, even some of their male colleague at their places of work can testify to this. it would now take maturity from the side of the husband to manage them. They feel the home can easily be financially managed by them, hence they want to have the final say. 2 Likes 1 Share |

eni4real:Except you are referring to your maids and kids that is when the scenario will be disrespectful. When you realize that you are addressing your wife, the person that compliments your effort in all things then i am not seeing any disrespect. It will be very disrespectful for you if you view your wife as your housemaid. Meanwhile, where you there sir? How can you gauge the tone the man used in communicating to his wife? I still reiterates that actions and reactions are equal and opposite. He should've choose his battle wisely. He knew that all is not well with his relationship with his wife and to crown it all her believes that it is his right to order his wife around, the woman who provides and cooks the food he eats. He got served. 7 Likes |

greatbygrace: Like you said your opinion, A rich/educated man can love a poor uneducated woman but trust me, the trust me, an educated/rich woman will never be under an illiterate/poor man. From the outsider everyone that sees that relationship will be envious but until you go close then you will notice the pain the man is bearing, some men don't have a say on what their children will or will not do, the woman takes total control everything that happens. |

kevin25: Did you just say "instruct" ? That's why he won't get any respect. If you treat your wife with respect, she will respect you in return. There's nothing wrong with dishing his food for himself and his friend.... in fact, with the permission of his wife. Marriage is a partnership. Your kind has made it a master-slave relationship. The fact that you're even confident enough to bring it up here claiming right is very disturbing. 11 Likes |

ibkayee: hahaha... A man is a shield, a provider, a covering, a priest, a coach... He has muscles ( without working out) for a reason, he can commit suicide when he looses his job for a reason, he is naturally bigger than the female for a reason. He is the one most responsible for the successes or failure of the home-- God made it so. As there is a head of department and captain of a team, a man is the head of the home. How he interprets it depends on how much 'maturity' he has! |

Polygamists?? Hahahaha.. and you think men in polygamous marriages have anything to gain? Lol. What if the husband of the woman you quoted just prefers serving his own food?Some people are like that. Let me give you an instance. My mother rarely ever goes to the market. And I mean it, she very rarely goes. Most of the time my dad does. This has been going on for the longest time. And guess what? It's my dad choice. And it doesn't mean he's jobless or emasculated, no. He's infact a very very busy man but he doesn't joke with his stomach and takes his little time off to head to the market and get what he wants. When someone hears it they'll probably think my mom is a bad wife but it's far from that. eni4real: 4 Likes |

@OP, Many wives are willing to show respect, but they feel their men must be worthy of it. Fact is, respect is too great a need for any man to have it given and taken based on performance. Respect is not a fair-weather affair. A woman needs to learn how to respect her man even when he's not perfect. ^^ Sounds stupid and impossible, right?? Very well then, do NOT marry a man you cannot respect! How difficult is that?? 1 Like 1 Share |

trapQ:Muslim Polygamist are well adjusted to the practice because it is within the tenet of their religion. So, they should be happy. But topic like this cannot be raised among them. No woman will ask the husband to dish his food or do the laundries while the other wives are looking.. He must do all their laundries The example you cite is real as your Dad has a unique form of upbringing and he must be an open minded man too... You and I know that more than 50% of women buy groceries in the market. That your mum has such an understanding husband does not mean every wives should expect their husbands to act the same. Especially when it is a privilege and not a right.... I don't know why women complain when it comes to widely duties, children adore you more they ever adore us.. Your reward is always there 1 Like |

greatbygrace:I think normally the wife should serve her husband and his friends when she is in the house. The man wants to show off his wife to his friends and feel like he is the head of the house, na jst shakara for him friends. However the guy suppose understand his situation and the kind of wife he has. I have heard folorunsho Alakija talk about serving food and kneeling to serve her husband food Also heard omotola talk about her husband going to the market to buy foodstuffs and cooking for her cos she is a superstar bla bla. So its always about your preferences and choosing the partner that has those. So the man is to be blamed as the leader of the relationship for choosing an incompatible partner except the woman toasted him and all. My preferences align with the man's own but in this situation i wont try this shii and i certainly wont marry this kind of woman. So ii summary the title of this article is very correct if you are anything like me If not, no problem |

ibkayee: That's the order of life. The buck stops somewhere. God did not question Eve, he questioned Adam! A head should never lord it over people he is responsible for-- that's positional leadership, which is weak. He is supposed to lead. He is on the front-lines, he is the most responsible, the most caring, the most selfless, he sacrifices for those he is responsible for. Any association where there is no assigned "head" is doomed. Marriage is not a competition, its a partnership-- 2 people should be more effective than when they are single. 2 people working towards a common goal. 3 Likes |

kevin25: you forgot spiritual and if it will sound awkward for you not to marry a more spiritually minded girl, can i urge you men to be more spiritually minded than the women. You are the head, who us supposed to be closer to God for direction and wisdom. when a woman feels they are more spiritual than you, they tend to have misplaced priorities cos the church becomes more important than the immediate family when family is suppose to be your first church. Just think it, if Adam was, Eve wont have left us to this trash... 1 Like |
