Ok. For most men, it's fear of being financially incapable. For others, it's not meeting the kind of women they want. But honestly, if we want to remedy this situation, it's not so much a hard thing. Return most of the jobs to the men and by so doing, you'd be empowering them financially to take up responsibility.

Give the job to a woman who becomes comfortable and starts searching for a partner who refuses to turn up because he doesn't want to be seen as incapable and a gold digger. At the end, he remains single and she remains single.


Give the job to a man and empower him financially to take up responsibility and he gets married and can afford to take care of his wife from it. She gets off the single market and so does he.


Looking at both scenarios, which makes more sense? Obviously the second. But unfortunately, we live in an era where more jobs are being assigned to the women and at the end of the day, the society at large ends up suffering it.

Guy, NwaAmaikpe is intelligent with his, many times, out-of-place comments but that Evaberry (who's a guy, by the way) is just too unintelligent & boring. HE is trying too hard to be NwaAmaikpe.

I've always been an advocate of this.

Let's flip it for a second and view it from a father/daughter angle.

Would you feel comfortable allowing your daughter whom you've tremendously invested in become a second class citizen just so she can become a Mrs?
Or
Would it be acceptable not to invest in them (girls) but rather focus on the boys since they will most certainly yield positive financial results?

I think it has a lot to do with understanding and full acceptance of roles in marriages.

Wen d ladies are giving jobs ahead of men and every one hails d lady folks do not realise it time bomb ticking.
Wen we have working single ladies and unemployed single guys were will d marriage come from?

We need empower more men than ladies.
You empower a man he can start family.Empower a lady and nothing happens..

Finance is the main thing but, some ladies aren't ripe for marriage most of them only care about wedding. Some ladies don't have anything upstairs.
Na money me I dey find. Am not sure wether I will marry in 3 years time. All I want now is financial stability.

Which jobs are you talking about ?
Most Nigerians are not into white collar jobs.

And giving job to men because they are men sound unreasonable
and unfair, it is an archaic mentality in some society where women
are turned to properties to be acquired by the highest bidder.
Women are not the sole beneficiary of marriage, men
also benefit from it.

This is a pragmatic argument that I've advanced on several occasions. It's painful to see how so many girls deploy their unfair 'bottom power' and "soft' advantage to get jobs that they can't even perform well at.

You see them everywhere doing yanga, prancing about in so-called office attires and forming working class girls, with nothing but scorn for unemployed or broke guys who are more competent and qualified than them.

Guys need these jobs far more than girls, and society must redress this injustice of assigning good jobs to mediocre females.

Some people here are just shouting Buhari and APC, must everything be buhari?....am not siding buhari here but i want u to know that even if buhari leave in 2019 such things will still be happening.
Bible had said it all that in d end time 8 women will be struggling for 1 man telling him that they will eat from their own purse, clothed themselves but let us bears ur own name and give birth to a child in ur name. Bible made a statement that suprise me, it said these will never happen to the children (woman) of zion.
You sees a woman of 35yrs old looking for suitor and she is working from 8am to 6pm, she leave her house at exactly 5 or 6am in her car and get to her place of work at exactly 7am. She spent most of her days in her place of work and wen she is through with d day work at 6pm she drive in her car and went back home. These things repeat itself everyday.
Women be humble at times and sacrifice for some things. Leave ur car and struggle for a cab for good 4 months and see what will happen. Don't misunderstand me having a car is like living a comfortable life but try and sacrifice for some things. This method doesn't work for every woman but it works for 4 out of 10.

Most human beings are not disciplined.

Why does it look easy for a man to assume financial responsibility for the family ?

But opportuned ladies will not.

When Tiwa Cabbage thought she was the bread winner and reduced TeeBill to a baby sitter, what happened to their marriage ?

We started hearing things like edible Carter. So its not about, this is my money. It is about, how disciplined are we to make our marriage work ?

when they allow the ratio to be 2:1 they should expect the solution to their problem sooner than they think.
somebody will say I am wrong but did you go through the names very well? it's mainly of those who say the ratio must be 1:1.
before you tie everything to economy, remember that base on average, the Igbo man has a better standard of living than any other tribe's man in Nigeria.

But let's not lie to ourselves the percentage of young women working is more than the male folks, majority of young men are in the Bet9ja shops or doing Okada/Keke work.

Walk into an average office you find more young ladies than young men, the few men in these offices are older men in their late 40's above occupying the top positions.

My former work place, my boss likes young ladies and fancy them. In fact, most of our work involve more ladies. But only employ few men to assist them in the physical and driving area.

Now tell me when the cooperate world is favouring ladies more than young men how will the men get enough money to get married.

Older men are becoming more envious of young men and would not like to see them succeed in life.

Even if you are doing well on your own, they did pull you down with slightest contact.
