Out of 1000 Nigerian women, the ones that can take care of themselves are not up to 5. Its even worse now with the hardship in the land

Fact.

Women are now the ones sustaining their marriages financially. Dey play. E go choke.

May we not be in the circumstances that warrant divorce. My Dad and Mum divorced when I was less than 5 years. I have never been the same. It affected every fabric of my family. I had no memory of staying together with my parents in the same house. I grew up in four different homes and four communities just because Dad and Mum were never together. Divorce is like an unburied corpse of a loved one.

Two visions equal divisions.
Division in the home births divorce.
One home, one vision.

Women, please submit your vision to the vision of your husband.
It is what it is. He is your head.

So sorry I can relate.

Indian women are so loyal and virtuous.. Lived and worked amongst them, they are so faithful and do not flirt.

No matter how much the woman earns, she doesn't lord over her husband, though there's a coded subservient pedestal that the man operates from.

You are quite wrong you know? Pls read Ephesians chapter 5 very well. A man was commanded to LOVE his wife as Jesus Christ loves the church and GAVE His life for her. So a man has a more difficult task. Submission is still not only for the woman as loving is not only for the man. But the Bible emphasized LOVING for the husband and SUBMISSION for the wife. Ignorance especially has made many couples to cheat themselves of the divine standards.

I don't see any benefit of marriage, than being under a man that you have to submit to all your life, do everything to please him all because he's providing..I can provide for myself much better man. So go hang yourself somewhere else not in my place.

This is not the meaning of marriage and marriage is not meant for the feeble minded ones or the faint hearted ones like you... When you marry your right partner, you will enjoy marriage.

Just like Maldives, Nigeria was ranked eleventh among the countries with the highest divorce rate because its women are financially independent and can sustain themselves without husbands.

When we said this is mostly poverty alleviation program with cultural background to it, many go begin vex. Now we have heard from even non-Nigerians.

Financial dependence is a huge factor in marriages and it's mostly about the woman, but many mumu men no understand. You owe yourself a clear understanding of what you get into, not just fall yakata dey fool yourself say na love grin .

My logical half is Zimbo. His own mother (may her soul continue to rest in eternal peace) was on her 3rd marriage at the time of her death. In her defence, the 2nd husband left her a widow. His full sister (my SIL) divorced her husband and remarried the following year. At first I thought she'd just stay focused on her kids and try to heal and all that-- For where? One minute I'm talking to a divorced woman, the next minute someone is talking about wedding plans. She didn't even blink. Did it sans emotions. A true redpiller that one.cheesy

Kenyan women do divorce but she can put up a fight if she believes you're worth it. God help you if she believes you have no usefulness -- one of you will pack and go. grin We generally don't carry marriage on our heads because the focus is on who you marry rather than the marriage in itself. Having said that, we do have a few instances of girls who get married purely for validation or pressure from family, church and friends, and I notice it's more prevalent among extremely religious folks (both Christian and Muslim) and rural folks.

I believe that unfortunately the majority of these divorces comes from the north where men easily cast aside the children they married in order to marry more children. I’d love to be proven wrong though.

The type of divorces our society needs is happening but it’s nowhere near where it should be. I mean the divorces where women aren’t staying in physically, emotionally and financially abusive relationships just because they feel too powerless and financially inadequate to leave.

If we say marriage in 🇳🇬 should be limited people who don’t actively hate each other, only 25 percent of the couples will remain married.

Oh wow.

Mama nor send anybody oh. grin grin She's living her best life.

Lmao no. She's a pinkpiller. A great one I Stan. cheesy

I think I like the ideology of not carrying marriage on the head. And truly, the focus should be on who you marry cos many of them are mad.

Certainly, there'd be those ones that get married because of validation and pressure from family/friends. God help them make them nor jam bad partners.

Yet their men rape them and kill them indiscriminately.
It shows there’s no benefit to being that way towards a man. He’ll still pay you back with evil.

What do you men actually what?

This rant is totally unnecessary.

90% of men are not interested in marriage and 90% of women are interested... So your whining is not necessary

My dear lady, In every society, there are deviants and people with dysfunctional behaviours. That's why laws are put in place to checkmate these. Humans will not always want to behave appropriately,not just men

Somehow they happen to be more brazen in societies where men dominate women.
One wonders what the correlation is 🤔
