A woman’s JOB by nature is to breed children, protect, nurture, and educate those children, if she has done this then nothing concerns her with finances. Now if she chooses to breed with a waste man then that’s her cross to bear because a MAN is capable of providing for his family.

Lol aw many bills du we even av in Nigeria that you want to be splitting up nd down....


The splitting of bill is meant for people in advance world where Tax don almost beat dem to death ...


If you're married to a lovely woman when she sees you're down if she's sensitive you don't even need to tell her before she decides to help u...



Why doesn't the man responsibility becomes conditional as you posited.


The last time I checked, the NBS statistics that posited the number of people who have over a million naira in the bank account balance and above is less than 2percent of the population in the country meaning that wether there is bills to pay or not only feeding, housing and education families are struggling to meet up with these basic needs of life.

Nigeria is a middle income country where the minimum wage for a month is just 30USD and a large population of the country earns below the minimum wage, as a matter of fact we have 133 million people living in multi dimensional poverty. How do these sets make life easier for themselves if they don't come together to pull resources together and grow from them.

Adulthood comes with taking responsibility, anyone who feels he or she should never take up responsibility should never be an adult, remain in your childhood body and enjoy your roar coaster.

Women claim to be feminist and modern women and demand equality but they always draw the line when it comes to splitting bills personally I have no problem taking care of your bills but don't for a minute think I will be entirely faithful to you, somethings are human nature like women being catered for same as it's a man nature to be promiscuous.

Let them all go and look for billionaires to marry and leave men that are managing and earning a decent living for themselves.... grin

The day I read a female here say "why will I help my husband pay our child's school fees, did I force him to get me pregnant"..... That's when I knew some women are not meant for marriage.... Some don't just have the team-playing mentality even if they earn 300billion naira per day

Your expenditures are another person's income.
Why would a woman be working and earning money only to waste it on mundane materials while the husband is left to bear the burden of the whole family? I believe it is an ego problem on the man's part and idiocy on the woman's end.

No need to split bills. Women are helpless and must be pampered even when they earn as much. Some people pretend to be wondering why there are more widows than widowers. cool

Men are sliding into hypertensive mode because of stress, no one care to help. It should never be like that, a partner means a helper why then will a helper not help her partner.

It's really not an ego thing...it's a situational problem....if a man marries a women that doesn't see team playing as a norm in marriage.... u eitheer foot all responsibility alone or divirce...will u force money out of her hands...?? No..

This thing is mentality ...some women are team players....some are not... especially those ones that date sugar daddies back in college..

A man is mandated to provide for his family. A man is not mandated to provide LUXURY for his family. A man is not also mandated to create a soft life for his wife. If the woman wants luxury and soft life, she should go and work.

Do not put men or be allowed to be subjugated into civil slavery known as marriage. If your hands can provide only garri for your family, by all means do that.

Men, don't be scared, no matter how much you earn in life, there is always a woman for you. Afterall you are giving her what she is incapable of giving to herself.

Shalom

Lol yea NBS can't help us run our families doz ones are paid to dish out figures....



For once av never even check dere statistics cause is irrelevant to me as poor as the country is people are having,10m, 20m to spend and leave the country where are all this people seeing the money....



Even the olden Days people are saying economy was good exchange rate was good how many people were Rich imagine in a community of like 2 thousand people only one person is rich and can afford Pegueot 504 so what's good about the economy when wealth isn't circulating not like this days that the economy is so bad nd people still earn huge money in same Nigeria to Japa or buy properties...


The way you will run your home can't be determined by NBS statistics buh ur pocket if it will involve sharing of bill's share it...

Enjoy the rest of your day....

I can't have a child for a guy who asks me to split 50:50, it means he's not ready to start a family. So what happens when the woman has to stay at home to look after the kids? She will now jump back to work a month after giving birth because the man she opened her legs for is not man enough. Tufiakwa. 50:50 is a roomate, not a provider and protector.

The higher the percentage of bills he takes the more willing a woman should be to risk her life getting pregnant for him and raise his legacy into adulthood.

Many men want the benefits of a full time housewife and still expect her to do 50:50 on top when he won't even attempt to go through the character development required to lighten her load.

The woman should assist according to her capabilities.There shouldn't be any criteria like splitting of bills.we all know times are hard and we can't leave every responsibility for our husbands, make person no become widow at a tender age.

Gone are the days when the husband must be the sole benefactor,the tide has changed.

I advise every woman should have something doing no matter how little it lessen the burden at home.
