Inasmuch as I don't condone chauvinism,I think the younger wife's idea is a little bizarre to me.Well,her argument should have been to have the inheritance distributed among the children,albeit not equitably.But,to say the sharing exercise should wait until her female children give birth to boys is kinda preposterous.She is indirectly saying her female children aren't supposed to partake in anything,prompting her suggestion about the future.That's like shooting yourself in the leg.She should know that in the part of the world where we come from,girls are treated with disdain when it concerns inheritance,even when it should be the prerogative of all.It's high time men gave women the freedom of expression because we are all equal before God.If you know what you stand for,go for it and don't quiver! | Posted: at 19-05-2012 08:54 AM (12 years ago) | Upcoming | |

I think this is peculiar to some Nigerian tribes or let's say people.In Cameroon,everybody is equal.Fascinatingly,women stay at the forefront when inheritance distribution is concerned.They get first before male issues because they value them more.All in all,every single member of the family gets a share.There's absolutely no practice of gender inequality.Folks,I think this is the best kind of life we all should live,init? | Posted: at 19-05-2012 09:02 AM (12 years ago) | Upcoming | |

it's only in benin they believe in such tradition, even seff d benin pple dey gv small portion 2 d females..
i totally disagree wit u dear......in my family, everything is been shared equally, even in d female child is 3 months old.....
in your family everthing is been shared equally, go home and ask question, how can you shar things equally with your father's first son, then take urs to ur husband who is not even a menmber of the family. | Posted: at 19-05-2012 09:55 AM (12 years ago) | Upcoming | |

Even when she want to claim the owner of her father's house when her brothers are there, a woman her right in her husband's house and not in her father's house, it is the men that stay behind and keep the family name going. so stop all this ur equal right. If ur father has one house will u allow ur sister to start fighting u onto who will inherit the house, wake up guy | Posted: at 19-05-2012 10:14 AM (12 years ago) | Upcoming | |
