In country where there is no government like nigeria,you don't have to have children unless you are truly capable taking care of them,not by getting them to hawk on the streets and compulsorily do the hard chores in house just because you pump them with eba and white rice everyday but by nurturing them in the best way possible to be more capable than you in future.And capability could just mean being a successful and enterprising farmer.

You don't have to get married because your mates are doing so and most of all,you don't have to have children until you become a true adult that can think of solutions to life mundane problems,not by wailing to jesus,mohammad or babalawo but by being hands-on in everyday life challenges.

We don't want to cook banga soup and moimoi for the family and wash the plates afterwards.

We don't want to wash the kids clothes, change the diapers, potty train and scrub the bathroom floor.

We don't want to be the one to think of getting the kids set for school, packing their lunch and doing the school runs.

We don't want to be the one to go to New Benin
and yanga market........


Now we don't want to be the one bringing in the finances.


We just want to be the head of the house, the captain of the ship and the MAN with a phallus! Dazzal! Why is that so hard!

Why are you writing this unnecessary long epistle for? Did anyone force you to get married? Is anyone forcing you to get married? Marraige is a choice. So, if you cannot handle the demands of a NIGERIAN marraige, you are welcome to remain single.

Nigerian bred men are in this mess today because most of you are control freaks. You tell your wives not to work so that you can control her life and so that she can become your mule or slave.

In most parts of the world, wives and husbands use their earned income to run the family together. However, because of your bloody fragile African ego which is the size of an air balloon, you Nigerian bred men get intimidated by financially successful career women.

You want to be the sole bread winner so that you will be your wife's 'god' and she will worship the ground you walk on. Also, so that you can cheat and/or be abusive and she won't have the money to leave you.

Please don't complain. You guys created this monster because of your misogynist backward African mindset so deal with it or remain single forever. Shikena

If you drop dead today,your wife and kids will still live their lives.so,never forget yourself while providing for your family,never tell a woman your total earnings in the name of love,because love does not exist but personal interest.strive to live a moderate life while planning for your future(old age ) your future as a man is damaged if you don't have a house,a steady source of income after retirement.Young men look into the future with hope while old men look back with a lot of regrets.

Actually we are, we've been tied up in a web that we created; the Patriarchy , we set the rules and by the rules we're forced to be a slave to what we created. Irony

Ok, this is really confusing right now. The patrairchy oppresses men too? I thought women said the patriarchy was created to oppress them! This is a bit hard to understand.

You say what? a woman has nothing to loose?

a man can start his life all over from 45 I.e get married, start a family, become wealthy or make money and still be fulfilled even if his past was rough.

but a woman can't, pregnancy for previous relationship takes its toll on the female body, her perception of things. starting a family would be difficult . she becomes undesirable even with her money it makes it all the more difficult to approach and it changes her.

a woman can't walk out of a relationship unscathed like a man would. remember women get pregnant not the the men.

Lol in this economy who the hell is staying away from working women, all my relatives are married to working women and they plan and do things together. Its not realistic for anyone to shoulder all the responsibilities today unless the person is very wealthy
dnt mind dat lady oh. majority of the working women r not even willing to assist their men cos they see their monies as theirs. its just their mindset.

This should be directed at lordKO

Check my posts on the first page, I said Nigerian men should share house chores and at the same time marry women who must contribute.


But low-key alpha males and misogynists led by LordKO decided to call me stupid, self centered and greedy for saying men should share bills with their wives.

You don't have sense.

That girl has just spoken the unmitigated truth. You might not like it, but it is the truth.

Most Nigerian women will take everything you have without any scruples and abandon you in your diminished state. They will happily trade up with the upgrade your little means afforded them while you bite your fingers in regret.

So, instead of insulting that lady, I'd advise you to see the game for what it is and play it accordingly.

Oh yes it does, read up on Toxic Masculinity intact the patriarchy may cater to women more than man, except that when it comes to equality and all, the patriarchy is sad to discriminate but lately that line is blurred, in the legal system esp in the western world women enjoy a lot of benefits and advantages than men esp in issues of child support and alimony (depending on the state), its Islam nation (where women are discriminated against )that needs feminism much more than any nation.

Those who complain about the patriarchy are white women they don't care for people of colour they only cater to their own selfish interest which is to topple the patriarchy , you think the sisterhood would back omorosa or any black lady should the need come for it.

Bumpkin. Vamoose and direct your further mention(s) to your ilk, I don't join issues with small-minded people like you. You're a closet misogynist, and a typical hypocritically disingenuous person.

If you're to mandatorily "share bills in equal measures" with your wife - instead of either of the parties volitionally and conscientiously contributing according to one's immediate capability (with you as a man having a sense of responsibility to provide for your family) - I wonder how you're going to share in your wife's pregnancy associated pains (labor contractions and childbirth pains). Truth is that you lack love in your life... You don't know what love is.

Also if a couple share bills in equal measures, it means that in the event either of the parties become incapable of making financial contributions to the house the marriage should automatically be over. Marriage is a sacred union, and it shouldn't be mistaken for a commercial enterprise. I don't see oneness and love in a couple that share bills instead of one or both parties volitionally and conscientiously doing what's necessary at any given time.

People like you with your wack thought processes and actions always validates my postulation that brilliance doesn't cure mental parochialism.

I'm not a subjugator. Unfortunately, you're a closet one.

As for the racist part you might see it that way, but even within the feminist section, a certain group feel it caters to certain people (whites) which is why intersectional feminism exists. Am not racist am only pointing out what people claim it to be, I'm only saying when certain issues resolves around women of color in the states the western feminism is usually quiet.

Men be wise...Marry a woman who has it put together and level headed. Who doesn't see a call to support and assist her own home as you trying to exploit. Know clearly how your woman is wired before u go the long haul and when u finally get that kinda woman, support her with all of you...Nothing like I can't sweep, I can't change diaper or I can't wash plate...Be flexible, be free and simply live, love and enjoy your family with that woman who thinks like you.

Do American men share pregnancy with their wives?


In your first post, you made much emphasis on the position of leadership in the family. Unfortunately for you, anybody who believes in gender roles is a misogynist.

Maybe you don't understand what feminism is all about or you haven't had a conversation with a focused non-Nigerian feminist.

"Woke kids" are usually people with their heads in the cloud and no real-life experiences. They just try to sound intelligent but their philosophy often doesn't stand up to scrutiny. The latest trend for these woke kids is socialism/communism. They actively blame capitalism for their problems in life and are trying to replace it with marxism, that just shows how really unwoke they are. I would not put any stock in their narratives, tbh.

Men can be monsters, men can also be angels; the same goes for women.

Note I didn't accuse you of racism, I only said you sounded so. As a species, we will always have subgroups, in our case this takes the form of races and ethnicities. Sometimes, our interests diverge sometimes they merge, sometimes they clash. However, I've found that POC that say such things as patriarchy being a white problem only do so out of a sense of resentment. Resentment of "white privilege" mostly; when really the same issues can manifest in different ways owing to differing cultural pressure points.
