Caring for family has been a joint effort of husband and wife from time immemorial. The wholly kept women were only found in Kings Palaces in the olden days.
The modern wholly kept wife was introduced into most parts of Nigeria by the colonial administration and collar job culture.
The Early collar workers imitated the colonial administrators whose wives did not work, or the wives of collar workers could not find work in the towns. So, they stayed home.
Go to most parts of rural Nigeria till today. Most wives and husbands work to provide for their families.
A well trained married female professional income earner today who does not contribute 50% or more to her own household is plainly being wicked to her children in today's world where children need to be comprehensively tooled to succeed. Even if the husband can send the children to top schools, the woman should add her 50%+ to ensure the children attend better top schools if scholarship is not available to the child.
You see this comment right here is the reason when a woman is earning more, she starts maltreating her man.
Pls Ladies, stop listening to these internet bandits sent to destroy homes and relationships. Every home and marriage is different. If you can afford it and it brings peace, split bills.
Doyin, it's all started when we women started preaching Feminism, and we couldn't separate feminism from gender specific roles too. Splitting of bills 50/50 is not an African thing, I beat my chest on that because I have interacted with people from the 80's and 90's/. It's more of a western thing and am afraid we are stuck in between accepting it and letting it go. Overall, whatever works between partners is fine by me. 50/50, 70/30, just don't be consumed and overwhelmed. It's fine!
Please check history even in Bible times, women contributed in feeding their family. It is the selfish woman of toady who does not want to contribute to their household.
What do you think woman have been doing with all they earned ? Use them for organic skin regime?
The same women that what their husband can do, they can do better, but when it comes to splitting bills, mba, another one say she wan marry pa Ned, another one tear her husband’s passport, make una kwantinue
You are lucky too. You may be bringing more, which is done to keep your home happy. Do what you can for your loved ones if you have it and don’t listen to others. Our parts are different.
Doyin try relocate abroad with hobby, both of u now get jobs & u dump every responsibility to him alone, while u use urs to buy make up & personal feel good acquisitions. Except ur hubby na Dangote, Adenuga or Otedola’s son, u don’t even need to contest being taken care of solely by him, otherwise, e no go eazy as u dey preach am so.
You call yourself husband, head of the house and expect me to split bills with you, shame no dey catch you? I can surely support you finanancially, but that splitting bills is a God forbid.
If you meet a man/husband who really demands and enforces his "headship" of family, you will not stay long enough with him to let issue of bill splitting arise in the marriage.

ReplyDeleteSupport your spouse as a wife but don't drain your life in the process.

ReplyDeleteIf you like be taking advice from someone that does not know her left from her right. Like they say the blind leading the blind.
ReplyDeleteHmmm some people are lucky in marriage, why me I am almost doing everything in my home. May God help us.

ReplyDeleteNothing wrong in supporting your spouse but when it is 50/50 mandatory, na that one I go frown at.
