Change

byvan03:
Same women of yesterday that dumped their weakling husbands to pitch their tents with local warriors? People tend to romanticize things they know nothing about.


Nothing really changed, bad /good women are as old as time.

PaperLace:
I don't know why someone would jump into a thread and all you can do is call feminist. Take out your time to read about feminism.

There is nothing like yesterday/today's wife. A bad wife is a bad wife! Take her from now to the future...she'll still be bad. Y'all act like you don't have any uncle with a bad wife from the so called YESTERDAY's wives.

1)Times have changed. Most husbands and wives work now...nothing wrong in him helping with the dinner, her manner of approach should be respectful.

2)Any woman that does that is a witch, yesterday, today or in future.

3)Why should anyone have plenty children in this economic dispensation_ figure 8 or nah. Why have so many kids that the elder ones would be made to train? If that's what it takes to be yesterday's wife, I rather be today's wife. 2kids... that's all.
Yes, body is very important to me_ I am vain like that.

4)Same as number 2_ very bad wife.

5)Very very bad wife still

6)A witch

Summary: There have always been bad women. You made it seem like all our mothers and aunties were angels.
Since you said, we still have some good women in today's wives_ same way we had bad women in yesterday's wives.

You guys should calm your *****

I rather be a good wife.

Gaborone:
The complaints about the younger generation of women/wives is too much.

If you as a man feel they are no more good for anything, why not go for your grandma's age or remain single?

There's a lot I'm not understanding here. You complain about them on Friday, and take them to the altar on Saturday. What sense is there to find there?

Hmmmm!

Very well said. Some women of old I know ( some in my family ) make some women of today look like saints . I have a grand aunt who left her husband with 4 kids, married another man,a chief had one child for him and then went back to her former husband who took her back. They even had another make up baby I don't know too many men of today who would have taken her back.

Change is forever constant, you need to accept change to grow ....the world evolve every second, the world is evolving as we speak

I think that is really the issue.

I was reading the Bible yesterday where Solomon said there was nothing new under the sun.

This thread reminded me.

byvan03:




Even Bible had male prostitutes, so nothing really new.

Realhommie:
Please, that your grand aunt, is she a Deltan and is she a chief?

Onegai:

Puhlease! Wait, that gist sounds very familiar, abi it's not my family .
How about married mother of 1 starts sleeping with her married boss (father of 2) and then denies it furiously, only to pack into the boss' house and leave the 2 men squabbling over who gave her her 2nd pregnancy?
Or married father of 4 starts banging new wife and mother of 1 and they start lying that he is her "kinsman" and the poor unsuspecting husband not only swallows that story, he even starts carrying gifts to give his wife's "kinsman". Imagine person banging your wife amd collecting gift on top
Or young secretary who starts knacking married father of 3 and has to be waylaid and beaten up by wife's friends before she could receive sense and all of the women ended up buying shops on the same road in Balogun market.
And all these people, the youngest is 65 years old. All grandparents. If people only knew the shenanigans that happened in the past, they'd be so grateful of girls of today. Of course there are bad eggs, but to say in the past, all women were saints in the past and Modernity ruined that, that's just embarassingly wrong. Honestly, that show "SuperStory" never really quite had good storylines like some family gist

damiso:


No she is not a deltan which means you know another one sef that is deltan. so much for this olden day angels theory


Seriously, I actually think the influx of Pentecostal Christianity into Nigeria kinda curbed women a bit( not so sure about the men though )

Because the shenanigans and life style of some women from way back ehn all this stay there and die kinda marriage was not in their dictionary. I don't know any woman in the 25-45 age bracket who had 4 kids for 3 husbands ( and is very proud of it) but off the top off my head I know over 65's with that scenario.

Onegai:


Pentecostal Christianity sanitised a lot. It made everyone more moralistic.

I think it did but the 'morality' was more aimed at a certain target audience on certain issues i.e. .women and marriage. Cos a lot of times you see the women sticking it out at all costs these days more than the past. Not like its necessarily a bad thing but its just funny when you see posts that romanticise the past.

Alot of older aunties and grandmas cant even comprehend the 'ruth abokokus me and my husband' ( ruth die with husband ) antics of the girls of these generation. I guess its cos there was more openness about polygamy so they sef no send the man I have aunties who cant understand all these 'our house our land ' business. They are asking 'what of your own house, what of your own land'
