saaphiere:
A woman should be her husband's think tank.
If your financial life is totally dependent on your husband, you are a psychological disgrace.
Fingers are not equal. Must your own be the shortest?
Don't die as a woman. Die as an institution.
Think more than you pray.

Then she has a point, though liability itself is relative. If we consider a housewife a liability because she isn’t working from home (business). Doesn’t that mean we have trivialized something as important as childcare? Something we outsource and pay for? I hope you get my point, sis.

Acidosis:

The things pastors say without biblical understanding. Where did you get the word "housewife"?

She and her likes need to shut the fck up and allow husbands and wives make whatever decisions they want regarding their finance.

So long as they don't come to you to beg for food or advice, you have no right over their decisions.

saaphiere:
I am seeing someone getting pained because women are about being emancipated from men cage.
Cry me a river

saaphiere:
I wonder if that is a female. A modern day lady won't think that way.

bukatyne:


And earning is enough to 'emancipate' a woman from a 'man's cage'?

Why would a woman enter the cage in the first place?

Klass99:


This sort of arrangement is really a case of different strokes for different folks.

The oil and gas nigga I know in a similar arrangement is such an azz and the wife is not happy being a stay at home mum (she said so herself)

She is financially dependent on her hubby to a point where the guy misuses that power.

Hubby is so rude and disrespectful to her it makes me cringe.

mariahAngel:


Most times, these so-called preachers get carried away with words, you begin to wonder...
They love to tell stories more than they love preaching the actual gospel.
Hardly would you hear " The bible says...", and the congregation swallow them hook, liner, and sinker.

bukatyne:


You have taken it P ke

I think preachings such as these already assumes that the husband would misbehave so the wives should have
a financial insurance.

So the women don't do due diligence: after all, they work/earn so have a 'get out of jail' card instead of not bothering to enter the jail in the first place.

I cringed when in a women's program, they were talking submission and on a second hand telling women not to listen to their husbands if they want them to be housewives.

My problem with housewifery is using the Bible to force women to stay at home.

There is a school of thought that pushes husband provider/ wife housewife narrative which is not also in the Bible.

I got you. Again she said, the work of a wife is not only to born and babysit. Be an asset to your husband. You might not work (business) but you can be an asset even without working.
[s]Don't die as a woman. Die as an institution. [/s]

prophetfire:
you are right. It depends on the couple being sincere with each other. Fairness, maturity and understanding comes into play too. Where it is being used to exploit or manipulate either party it wont go well.

Acidosis:


Motivational gibberish.

Acidosis:


You're right my sister. I need to take it personal. I don't think the Bible gave any clear instruction as to whether a wife should earn money or not. There are many ways to support a man and many housewives are doing that so well.

This condescending idea about housewives has forced many women into modern day slavery. A lot of pregnant women and nursing mothers are going through high and severe levels of stress just to avoid being called a 'housewife' by these fake preachers.

bukatyne:


Very true.

There are some incomes that are even negative balance to the family purse.

Acidosis is insecure I don't know what his/her fears are.

Palema007:
I believe this woman here is trying to make Women see that they are Human beings with breath in them. However in order not to sound like woke Christians or Feminists she has to include the "being an asset to the Husband" phrase but her last two statements shows her intention "Don't die as a woman" "Die as an institution" .
Believe me, I see nothing wrong with her words, I understand what is like preaching self development/ Living a purposeful life amongst women in a church setting. It is something you will always try to balance not to come off as a Rebel. Lol.

Only the wise will get the message, which is true. Women should stop living their lives for marriage, there's more to life than that. But if anyone believe otherwise, well that's her choice.And no she isn't wrong for it.We can't all lead.

saaphiere:
Who told you that's her last two statements? Have you watched the video? She is not a feminist. I don't know why Nigerian men are always pained whenever women are leading

Acidosis:


Just tell your pastor to preach the appropriate message.

Full time housewife is not full-time suffering. Some housewives are doing better than her.

Acidosis:


Preaching the Bible won't get them the target tithe and offering for the month.

The only reason a pastor will teach this kind of message is because her followers are du..mb unbelievers, wife beaters, scammers, etc.. She needs to dispense weekly dose of defence mechanisms every Sunday.

Palema007:
Those two statements are all there's to see, and calm down I'm not criticizing her.

Palema007:
Obviously you lack comprehension. Who said anything about having problem with "women leading"? Lol. Here's the issue with you lots... You read and listen with your Feminists view,so you understand only what you want.
And who told you I'm a man BTW?

saaphiere:
Oh! Those are the only two statements you saw? Well, we women must die an institution. Enough is enough

saaphiere:
It is full time suffering. You don't eat if he doesn't give you. What kind of life is that?

bukatyne:


The fact that the men around you punish their full time housewives doesn't mean all men are like that.

Some men send their salaries to the account of the wife/joint account who manages it; some others decide to pay their wives 'personal allowances' in addition to the allowances for running the home.

I think knowing that your finance is all that is giving you a leverage in your marriage is a terrible place for a woman to be.

I don't know who keeps deceiving women that earning a living is all there is to 'preventing' abuse in marriage. Most of the women we hear were killed by their husbands were working.

Learn to discern and choose well.

Martinez39s:
Your explaination is bullcrap. Just say you loath the idea of being a house wife instead of covering up and backtracking. Can't a working woman also be a liability? Imagine a working wife who goes to works from morning till evening but doesn't contribute to paying any bills in the home; the husband pays everything and caters for both the wife's and children's need, she keeps her money to herself, and the chores and children are left mainly to a housemaid or daycare. Sometimes chores are shared despite the husband providing 100% all because he is a man and his wife is not his slave. All these for a woman to be a "working woman" and not a house wife. Is that working wife not a liability? Calling fulltime housewives "fulltime suffering PLC" is blatant disregard and feminist loathing for the useful roles many housewives have played to ensure their families run smoothly for the kids. Leave housewives alone.
