Y'all need to stop comparing naija women with western women. Infact, we are more spoilt in nigeria. In Nigeria, u get support from family (my mom had her sis live with her for years even before I was born) and cheap live-in help.
I neva cooked or go to the market until I was 15 and moved to UK. In Nigeria, I had an older sis, 2 aunties, 1/2 househelp at all times. I know my case was a lil diff, but still most people I know in Nigeria had help at some point in their marriage. Here, u r on ur own & just have to get on with it. | Posted: at 13-12-2010 05:34 PM (13 years ago) | Gistmaniac | |

![-]( "sobeit") sobeit at 13-12-2010 05:42 PM (13 years ago) (m) Lol at the general consensus being that a woman's primary job lies within the home. That's hilarious. Where is the development and ownership of responsibility of self? Hahaha, these message boards crack me up. Its like reading stuff from the olden days. Maybe I just feel this way because of what I have been exposed to and where I was born and have been raised. I just had my laugh for the day. Thanks guys!
so meaning you're one of them huh  ? Hahahha, man you all are hilarious nope! i'm not maybe you aight!.. one more thing i'll advice you to take it easy with people on this forum ok! just give your thoughts and ignore some replies cuz i can see you're new..some hungry lions will be ready to make your time here uncomfortable.. just a piece of advice ok. New to what? The backwards mentality prevalent on the site? I appreciate your warning but am Nigerian as well, so I have been exposed to all of that. That is pretty much the culture. So thanks, I do appreciate your attempt. I'm just fine though, thanks. u're welcome,i guess you get some boxing gloves with you."get ready to rumble". lol | Posted: at 13-12-2010 05:42 PM (13 years ago) | Gistmaniac | |

"we are more spoilt in Nigeria"?.tell me you joking. . no seriously- how any people do u noe that live abroad n have hired help. In Nigeria, go to villages, sum parents will beg u to take their kids to the city so they can come serve u. Added to the immigrants from other neighboring Africa countries. | Posted: at 13-12-2010 06:14 PM (13 years ago) | Gistmaniac | |

![-]( "onyin") onyin at 13-12-2010 07:08 PM (13 years ago) (f) @Laydee.Not everywoman buys that idea of getting a househelp in Nigeria.Infact,once their daughters gets to a certain agemostly 7 or  ,they start making them to do things at home.Cos sum mothers are very strict. many family i know and my family ,it was a different,their daughters are like a mothers to the family.She has to do alot of things in the house.As a mother,you have to cook every blessed day becos there is no light to preserve the food(you pound yam,pound egusi,or ogbono,cut your leave, and alot more),you go to market,you wash with your hands ,when your tap stop rushing,you have to go fetch sum water,and alot more.but here,there is washing machine,light 24/7,you dont need to cook everyday,cos you can cook once a week and freeze the food,you dont need go fetch water or worry about water,there is no traffic and when you want to cook ,the egusi is blended already,the pepper is blended already,the leafs is ready,you dont need to pound any yam.so its alot more easier here,very easy.why?.cos uk is more organised than back home.now its left for a woman to make or take advantage of it.organise yourself and your time.and you will be fine. | Posted: at 13-12-2010 07:08 PM (13 years ago) | Hero | |
