Hello Guys, I've thought for sometime of creating a thread like this but haven't had the time...thank God i'm doing it now. It's not a strange thing to see that in some homes, d husband is in charge of preparing the market list as against the wife which is usually the norm. Those of you whose fathers do that and wives in the house whose husbands do that, please share your experiences especially if it is acceptable in our African Culture. In my own opinion, I do not see it as the right thing to do.

it's a horrible attitude....
men shouldn't be bothered about the details. let the wife handle kitchen duties. if she says it's $100 then its $100. give her the money & move on. if you cannot trust your wife with petty cash, you shouldn't have married her in the first place.

TribalEAST:
later you and your ilks will say a man should also help in the kitchen.

It's bullshyte
How does a man have such time?
As far as my dad was concerned, just say how much you need....the details bore him

Maybe poverty can cause that kinda attitude in a man sha but it's too un-manly

Word. If the wife isn't complaining, what's your business in who writes it?

My Lady and I work on the list together and we go shopping together if we do not use a shopping service. And there are times I do the lists myself cos I work better with the terms and conditions of the shopping service. So who cares who writes the list?

Stereotyping roles in families is one of the reasons there are so many issues in families. Let the better person handle any job. Or the more opportuned person. Why mandate roles based on gender. This is where communication and trust should comes in

I tire bo

U see guys, it may sound funny but this is what goes on in many homes and it is one of the causes of marital problems. I believe a man should tell the wife that he has a particular amount at hand and let the wife be the one that will know how to list the items and the prices to accommodate the amount the husband has.

I guess the custodians of African culture in NL will have to help us here

Abeg ask them! African culture is so diverse, like in Kenya u see wives not bearing their husbands name, are they not Africans?

This should be a topic on it's own, the way we just group everyone in Africa- the African man, the African woman, really when we all come from different cultures.
