My Cousin refuses to do any house chores because he's a guy by Abetterperson: 11:39am On Oct 11, 2021 |
My mom sister son decided to stay with us because of his family financial struggles. He's a bit older than me but we are of the same age group. Firstly I noticed this guy is sexist and when I say sexist I mean it. He believes a woman job is to clean the house and take of the family, a good woman in his eyes is a woman without an opinion, smile and always do what she is told. He views me as an inferior, he tries to order me around and gets angry when I refuse. He doesn't really talk to me which honestly I think is for the best. When he first arrive at our apartment he was shocked that he had to do any chores calling it a woman's work. He doesn't respect females infact he body shames women. Am on my period and we are the only ones in the house because of my cramps am in pain. In the morning we ate bread with bama and tea. Just now this guy asked me what we are going to eat because he's hungry (he's doesn't like eating outside, he prefer homemade food). I told him I don't know,next thing he told me to figure it out. Just because I Know the kind of person he is, I kept quite. He came to me again asking the same question, I told him to help me ground pepper and a bit of onion so that I will be able to prepare stew and rice, normally I would use our bender but because there is no light and am afraid to put on our gen because of my mom. Next thing I hear is this guy just shouting like a failed musician, telling me that I don't have character and respect. I didn't answer because to me he's a madman Am waiting for my mom to come, I Know she will take his side because she doesn't want him to feel maltreated but what is all this. Am not his wife still yet this is no way to treat a woman whether she is your wife or not. 131 Likes 7 Shares |

In your own house ? Biko I hate maltreatment but I can’t advise you to be rude to him as well. What I’d do ? I’d just fold myself in one corner holding my belly, crying...no one will tell him what next he is to do about his hungry stomach. Cramps can be extremely frustrating, like you won’t even be able to do absolutely anything and with this kind of pressure, oh I can’t even imagine!!! 94 Likes 2 Shares |

Abetterperson:According to you, your cousin sees you as shet and so also does your mum and since she enables his behavior. Nothing wrong with throwing the trash back where he came from so they can deal instead with the trash they created. ![]() Imagine if your cousin had been a female cousin, would your mum had accepted the same treatment from her? Women are partly to blame for morons like that walking around. ![]() 115 Likes 9 Shares |

Please send him to my house,he needs proper upbringing. But honestly I don't like seeing men do chores especially kitchen chores.I use to pursue my brothers to live the kitchen arena as I find it disgusting seeing men in the kitchen.Try your best to endure him as he won't live with you forever, its just for some times, please be patient with him till he leaves. 19 Likes |

Do you have a male figure at home for him to learn from? Like your dad or brothers. These are people that will change his myopic mindset. Try sitting your mum down and explain everything you have observed in him and what he does. Your mum might be carried away by emotions of him not being with his parents blablabla. So, calmly explain to your mum the situation on ground. If there's no change..."omo gboju" carry your face completely from his side. If he likes he should starve, he won't die, na persin dey fast 40days and 40 nights. But never insult him about his predicament. 23 Likes 1 Share |

How old is he? ![]() Living with relatives and still feeling entitled. He should be man enough to provide for himself and assist his birth family who are financially struggling. His parents spoilt him. 55 Likes |

Kobojunkie: If he is a professional or good at it, fine. Most (Nigerian) men are VERY clumsy in the kitchen. They take ages to cut ordinary onions. Mess up the whole place and are totally clueless on how to do many things at the same time in the kitchen. The sight of this infuriates me and I would rather I don’t see such. Not forgetting that the meal would most likely be basic at best. Sounds sexist, I know. Men feel the same way about female drivers. I would personally not have a problem with a man not cooking. The problem would be if/when he opens his mouth to say it is below him. Just like the ediot in the OP’s house. 13 Likes 1 Share |

1. Where are your parents? They should give all the children chores. 2. Stand up for yourself, not physically. 3. Emm, be careful. How long have you known him? Are you people like brother and sister because some end time cousins (of both genders) exist. Lock your door. Abetterperson: 9 Likes |
