MrBrownJay1: It disgusts me when men try to make it seem like if a woman doesn't contribute financially, then she's good as useless. I am really concerned about the loss of sense of responsibility from men nowadays. When did it become a taboo for you to make the money yourself and let your wife run the homefront. The Asians have been doing this for years and they're not complaining, hence why the family unit is strong and their children turn out as responsible adults and contribute meaningfully to their family and society at large. You guys make it seem like marriage is some kind of business venture.if not for anything, be a man for your children, they need a parent to look after them at least in their tender years. Have you not seen homes were both husband and wife are financially well to do but the children are nothing to write home about. A woman can support at times financially but you going into a relationship looking for a woman who you'll share bills with just shows the quality of a man that you are. 36 Likes 4 Shares |

2buffagain: I do home chores once in a while; but because I want to, not because I am forced to by my dependence on my wife's financial support. There is a difference. Also, I prefer to free my wife to concentrate fully on the kids'upbringing., so I pay a househelp to do the chores. I feel that the added attention that I and my kids get from a rested wife is very much worth it. 22 Likes |

efosky1246: as much as you are entitled to whatever desire/opinion you got on marriage... let me just confirm that, if you want your wife to be unemployed and stay home all day (caring for the house), then best get her a subscription to TELEMUNDO beforehand (as she will definitely need it) 13 Likes |

RisenPhoenix: Bros abeg you deserve cold beer. I honestly don't understand men who have this stupid mentality. Sharing bills with a woman? Why the f*ck are you a man then. If you want a certain lifestyle for your family, work your ass of till you achieve it, you won't die during the process.youll become a better man. Men create their own reality and women live in it. 22 Likes |

efosky1246: Men who think that way are only echoing the feminist narrative without knowing it. They are emasculating themselves while thinking that they still retain respect. It comes from misunderstanding what masculinity is all about. Any woman who marries a man must learn to live within his capability. A simp is afraid to refuse his wife's demands for a 'better' standard of living; so he takes money from her to finance that lifestyle; losing his status in the process. 11 Likes |

Personally I am all for female emancipation and women having jobs/not depending on some guy totally but topics like this are not for the average Nigerian man who believes he should be taken as a demi god by his wife. You can't have a wife paying rent and buying food to feed her husband and and paying other bills and then her husband wants to exercise TOTAL control over her and the household in spite of her financial and domestic contributions. That's why Nigerian women avoid men who want them to contribute financially. Another thing is, after marriage the same man expecting his wife to split bills will expect her to be primarily responsible for housechores and be completely submissive and obedient to him. It doesnt work that way. If a woman starts feeding you or paying your bills you no longer have complete authority over her. And it becomes imperative that you as the husband also take up housechores like cooking and cleaning and child care. An average egotistical Nigerian man will not want to do all this. 31 Likes |

Some of you speak like ALL the married women you work with in your offices are in broken marriages. Y'all be some clowns. ![]() The fact is, women have been working and contributing to the financials of the home unit long before this feminism thing some of you keep blaming. I guess if you believe something hard enough, it becomes your reality. Hence all this "If she makes money, she will eventually grow horns and become the devil" madness. ![]() 6 Likes |

RisenPhoenix: My brother you are literally taking the words right from my mouth. If you are a man that makes less than 100k, get a woman that is very comfortable with your ability to provide in that capacity. If you earn more, get a woman that is fine with your capacity. Stop depending on a woman to create your reality. Oh ye woke men. That way you eliminate 70% of potential issues that might spring up later 15 Likes |

2buffagain: And where has a form of democracy been proven to work in a family unit. The nation's adopting this new system of running a family generally record higher divorce rate. So maybe we should stick to what works and not what is shouted on social media. 7 Likes |

2buffagain: They may not be in broken marriages, but the men are not happy, not respected; in short; not men. And the children are often neglected. Plus divorce rates are through the roof and extra marital affairs are probably at an all time high. 2buffagain: Petty. 2buffagain: True, but only recently has it been made mandatory on them. Originally, they would contribute when they wanted to but no one blamed them if they didn't. No self respecting man would at that time, advice another to ensure that 'a woman was making income' before he married her. Now, women are shamed for wanting to be housewives or for rejecting a career lifestyle... and yes, that attitude is actually a feminist creation. 2buffagain: Yes. Like equating sponging off your wife with being alpha. 2buffagain: No she may not be a devil. But it is still unnatural and emasculating to have to send your wife out into the clutches of other men just to support an unnatural lifestyle that you are too lazy to hustle for yourself. Ask the average lady how many solicitations she gets from men she finds attractive on an average day, and ask yourself how well an average woman would be able to hold out against every single one of them; day in day out for decades; especially when she has been shackled by the inability to cause offence by the financial burdens you imposed on her. Of course, some men are accepting of being cuckolds and would rather hide their heads in the sand when faced with their wives' infidelities; being too weak to complain about it. 15 Likes |

bigpicture001: Assuming your responsibility as a man is what is slavery for you right? Well it's not for me, I love to take care of those I love to the best of my ability. And I would not laud that over my wife because I understand that her role in the family is equally important. Please tell me how this is suffering. And sorry, I won't be dying from too much responsibility anytime soon cause am not even 22 and I make close to 500k monthly. Even at that, women are not my priority because I know where am headed. I know the kind of life I want, and am creating it myself, My woman will help me raise children to continue my legacy. Not share bills. 17 Likes 1 Share |
