No these ones do not represent the average Nigerian man.Only the jobless ones with a lot of free time on their hands.No succesfull man underestimates the role of a thinking ,smart helpmate to weather the storms of life with them.

Underachieving men with challenges on their perception of self,either in wealth or size cant deal with such partners those are the type that marry a yes yes woman or maid.They are not the average Nigerian man just a small vocal minority.You know what they say about empty barrels

Wowwww. The article isn't valid enough since it is not empirically proven

Yes, because there are several questions which it didn't answer. What economic stratum are these men who married maids? How many men have they interviewed factoring income levels, location, age etc., before they came to the headline? What are the implications of a certain strata of men getting married to maids? These mothers weren't asked if they would accept these kinds of men as in-laws. And a whole lot more. Maybe if the media house cited a study that answers at least one of such questions, it will make the article more logical and insightful.

Of course, our wives are not our equals, we don't need them for any decision making, we provide for them and in return they perform their conjugal and domestic duties.

Full meaning of wife is:
Washing
Ironing
Fvcking
Eating

Pray tell, did you get thus format as an example of your mother's life?

Exactly! The writer just made a story without strong evidence to back it up. If he or she isn't checked, others would come up with another story to deceive the public

Okkkk.

If you want someone who will do all your chores for you. Hire a maid. You are your partner helper. Simply because you are the man doesn't mean you should turn your wife into a slave. During our forefather's time, the sole responsibility of the woman is to hold the home front and help on the farm once in a while, the man brings the food and money to the table. But now, you want a maid and someone who brings money to the house.

Shameless bunch of men tongue

This article has been recycled countless times on the FP. Don't you guys get tired?

BTW, like in most Nigerian written articles, no surveys or peer-reviewed studies on how they came about the outcome. Just vibes, cobwebs and coconut in their heads.


Mister... You don't have to try to appear smart. What has survey, studies got to with this kind of article? Besides, you can see from the style that it's a conversational piece with really no formality.


The article is properly crafted, IMO!

If you like shout to the heavens but it's not a well written article judging from other magazines and articles I've read online. Those writers ensure certain statements/statistics are backed by verifiable data not OKOTO MEOW conjectures. However, if you believe this article is factual, fine and good.

Thanks for the write up. Yet they will say simps go for the maids which is very wrong from the perception of lazy girls and shortsighted guys.
What you hear from them is I married a wife not a slave. You are only a slave when you view the reality as a slave mentality

That's Nigerian men for you.
Confused, entitled, selfish, vulgar, irritating

Just look at their thought process, they want a slave that can work as a maid and clean up after them and she should also be a provider that hustles money to feed them.

All while being a submissive wife that does not question their authority.

Nasty and selfish useless pieces of shit called Nigerian men

Lala your attention is needed here.

Most parents these days fail at everything. I have friends who let their kids do whatever they want, I mean whatever. It is crazy. People think the girls above 20 are bad, just wait for the babies to turn into young women.

That said, there are beacons of light in this perpetual darkness-properly trained girls who know their place, abhor feminism and see no reason why they shouldn't be able to manage their homes.

you talk about women knowing their place. Please enlighten us. What is the place of a woman so the rest of us can learn.

The differences between the maid and your daughter is "Entitlement mentality".

Most of you parents now train your daughters to believe that even in marriage you will still be there for her and if her husband can't provide (for any reason) anything she so needs you will step in the shoes of her husband; and by so doing disgrace the husband and put her marriage in danger.

You take your daughters to choice places while the maid is at home cleaning and cooking and doing all manners of chores and even washing your grown daughter's clothes. Failure to do so makes you disgrace or beat her in the presence of your daughter for failing to wash her clothes.

Some of you take them to places and cut corners for them to get what they want at the expense of their Male counterparts. Whatever she wants you provide and then feministically you teach her she has no moral obligation to submit to any man whatsoever and howsoever because "what a man can do a woman can do better".

While not disputing this claim it has the tendency of making a man out of your daughter; because through it all, you the parent forget that "NO MAN WANTS TO MARRY ANOTHER MAN" (literally) in the sense of her not being submissive and obedient to her husband in ways that are most convenient for the union to thrive. How can I live with you in peace when you have no regard for me as a man and a husband?.

"Your opinion is final" is also a fallout of these lessons you teach your daughters directly or indirectly also.

Most times as in almost all cases, who I will ask, does this or teaches these anomalies to the maid? Who will make her sit at the table in company of all family and dine like a normal human being with equal rights and opportunities like the cherished overpampered daughters who sits at these tables and chat away with anyone eating at the table almost without respect; when the maid is confined in the kitchen; only to be called upon to come and clean up?.

Who teaches her those manners that the maid effortlessly brandishes in front of all that visits your home?

Who will give her that feeling of entitlement that your daughter carries about like a briefcase on her shoulders?.

Do you think men don't see the differences?.

I dare submit I will choose a maid who is responsible, respectful, cooks and cleans, makes a home and caring to your entitlement mentality-laden and may even be on drugs daughters.

Argue with your keyboard in case you want to insult someone. Thank you.

I don't understand how some of them don't understand this.

Most marriages that you hear divorce and break up comprise of the type of ladies you mentioned.


The ones that give a man peace are those the article highlighted
The person may not be a maid but a well domesticated woman
She can be a graduate but highly domesticated

These are the kind of women that will give a man peace in his home
Not the ones that have become toxified by her environment and upbringing
Bringing only sorrow to men that marries them
It's all about wisdom simple
