TV01:

It's the "Equalisers" .
Anything a man does, a woman must be able to do. And in the same way, with the same outcomes. No thought given to the moral value, and totally ignoring any biological or physical drivers. And if the women can't do it, men must stop doing it or change it so that they can. Although they pass where it is risky, dangerous or otherwise unglamorous.

Everything must be equalised. If it means changing the language, so be it, denying reality, so be it, re-writing the bible, so be it, getting mad at God - He must be challenged about His sexism and heteronormative bigotry - so be it.

They are fun to watch na, and there's no end of laughs yanking their "angry" chains. Allow o jare !

You should have set them straight from the first off-point comment. Don't let these teenage girls, frustrated housewives and weak men like Innervoice damage your efforts at a decent conversation. It's your thread, you have the moral obligation of correcting erring comments to the best of your ability.

Cheers.

Done it a couple of times, no biggie for me.

The only thing is thier mom got upset when she found out i was giving her kids beer to help them sleep at night...She refused to leave them with me after that

Kimoni:


Letting them slide from the stairway kwa and I'm sure the kids will be enjoying it until they hear "gbam" on their head

And they'll come running to mummy

Onegai:


Cor-rection: the gbam sometimes happens to another part of the body, depending on how the child falls. And no, the child should not run to mummy or daddy (why report yourself for punishment!), instead meet the nearest oldest sibling to deliver punishments on the other children who clearly goaded you into putting a mattress on the stairs and angling it in a way to make it go as fast as possible before ending up slamming into the wall, shrieking in pain. Good luck trying to CCTV that.

Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything

I suspect you used to do this as a kid see the perfect description...but anyhow, mummy must still hear about it

I have my first aid box handy with all sort of colorful plasters ready for them, I will even ask them to choose the plaster they want

You are seriously paranoid.

Oh wait, you already admitted it.

Somtimes I let them slide from the Stairway and catch them as they fall. It's mad fun

SalC:
Seriously when I see the number of women on the streets of Naija with babies strapped to their backs and perhaps pulling another by the hand and a tray of groundnut or a bowl of sachet water on their heads, another in the market place with baby on the back while pushing a wheel barrow of this or that under the scorching sun. Then you come online to see men claiming they can't take care of their own babies because they work for the upkeep of their family, it beats my imagination.

So the women who work or do business and still take care of the babies are now fools? I don't even want to go into the fact that most of these men who claim too be to busy to take care of their children are actually being fed and cared for by their wives

If they are actually providing for their families as they want us to believe, those women should be at home or more conducive places doing their business with those children and not under the sun.

Real men work for their families' upkeep and still have time for their kids.

You suggested they should sell the kids, incase they don't find buyers, I suggest they sow the kids as seed of faith in their churches

snakebeat:

U must be very silly!
So u think because a woman is working is enough reason to delegate her natural responsibility of breastfeeding & nurturing a child to her husband? Men provide for the family, if a woman decide to work, probably because she is bored staying idle, then there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

What were u expecting? Men should be the ones carrying children to work & breastfeeding them? If u can't carry out your natural responsibility of breastfeeding & nurturing a child, what else can u do as a woman? Everybody can work, but not everybody can breastfeed a baby, when the need arise.
Silly women everywhere....

lolababe331e:


What if the woman is the primary bread woman? Pays most of the bills and works more hours than the husband? Should he still sit his bum down and do nothing. What then is his own contribution to the marriage With more women becoming bread winners family dynamics are rightly changing

snakebeat:

Did I encourage men to stay idle in my post? A woman breastfeeding & nurturing her child isn't peculiar to humans alone. If female animals are sensible enough to spend better part of their time with their children at the incipient stage of the child's life, why are women grumbling? It's a natural thing, it has nothing to do with work. Make out time to watch animal documentary to see how the female relate with their children, from hen to lioness. Must women complain about everything?
Rubbish!!!

peeparty:


Why not I can.am a lover of kids I play n laff with dem a lot.

cococandy:

lol. So the woman has a business or trade of some sorts right? Yet somehow the we believe the fathers alone provide fianacncial support for the family.

You said you don't mind as long as it doesn't become a norm for you? So what if it does and you have to do that many times a week.

You people better repent of this unnecessary and destructive pride that doesn't benefit anyone.

I was in the clinic on Friday. Come see fathers who accompany their wives for prenatal checkups signing up for classes in baby care. Learning to change diapers, feed them, bathe them and what have you. Some who learned a long time ago teach others. They have the infants to themselves anyday the mom has to work or isn't around or just for the heck of it. It's their baby too. And they aren't jobless. They all have jobs too but manage to balance child care with their wives.

Na for "face me I face you" in one slum in ajegunle you will see a father forming king of jungle towards his own little baby.
Where's the love?

Better repent y'all.

Congratulations on your bundle of joy dear.

The other day I went to a soft play center with my kids and my cousin. I don't even know when I said I like white people aloud. They are so into their kids. There were just as many dad's as there were mum's and the dad's were sooooo involved. There were on the floor doing stuff with their kids, sliding. Really engaging and having fun with them. It's really great.

Siena:
I don't babysit my own kids. I nurture them.

I have NEVER employed the services of a child minder when it comes to looking after my children. My wife has been away for a week or more, and I have coped just fine, with 3 young children. I welcome the time spent looking after 3 energetic nippers. It makes me appreciate my wife the more.

fem29:


Sounds amazing please keep it up.

I hope you actually do all she does tho. Laundry, cleaning, homework etc

When I'm at home, sure. I bathe my kids, change diapers and cook awesome, finger-licking good meals too.
