This Issue we need to fight against.

in #marriage6 years ago

The typical African mentality makes us believe in the fact that a woman has no business of her own, all she needs to do is to support her husband in every way.
We were previously told that we belonged in the kitchen, we had no business with taking care of the home, we had no right to speak when the men spoke, we had no right to work, we had to right to make any public suggestion and I think that is the major reason why our forefathers felt it was a waste of time to send their female children to school.

However, over time a lot of things changed and women could do equal jobs with the men and even speak when the men spoke.
The value of womanhood increased as we could speak for our selves over the things we feel are right or wrong.

There are these set of women that I respect so much, these women despite being hardworking and intelligent, still value the great importance of keeping a home and maintaining a beautiful family.
But, one thing that keeps getting me angry is the fact that, these women live their lives for their husband, they do everything for him, they happen to be the women behind the scene of their husband's success story(although, they remain un regarded).These men however treat the women like slaves while they go around spending a lot of money on their mistresses, this is a wicked act that keeps getting me angry whenever I see it.
I wish there was something I could do about it.

Dear friends, what do you think can be done to stop this act of wickedness that some men exhibit, I am aware of the fact that some men are the most loving beings you can ever come across but what do we do about those who remain a thorn in the flesh despite the love shown to them.
Your comments are always appreciated, stay beautiful and remember that love is essential, see you around.

Actually, there are no perfect human beings. I will say women can keep supporting their husbands as long as they see that he is making efforts to be better. And for a man who is otherwise well, one can pray for him or give him space for a while and see what happens.

Beautiful comment, thank you.
