Cooking and Laundry Duties Isn't Gender Specific


Wife materialness is not synonymous with marital sufferness

Your ability to cook all the African and intercontinental dishes or sweep and clean like a professional help does not make you wife material.

Stop measuring female virtue and substance with how much you can endure, and how hard you can work in your marriage

You are not the help, you are the partner!

Any man that cannot cook and clean up after himself is not marriageable

Any man that cannot take responsibility for his stomach duties till he is bellefull and clean up after himself is not marriage material 

It's time to stop the diabolical narratives that men are overgrown babies

Babies are babies and men are men

There are no grown babies, just grown men 

You cannot play mother when you signed up to be wife

You can only be wife to a husband, never mother because it is called husband and wife, not husband and mother

If you find out you are playing mother to your man, you are not, you are in the nonsense

In fact, you are not just speaking in the nonsense, you are married to and in the nonsense

We are all born with needs

As long as you have a stomach, you must know your way around the kitchen 

As long as you wear clothes, you must know how to wash your damn clothes yourself 

Cooking and laundry duties isn't gender specific 

Personal hygeine isn't gender specific too 

No gender should put their own needs above the other 

No gender should be solely responsible for catering to the needs of the other gender 

All gender for themselves

I am not afraid of the storm Facing it alone isn't something I would lose sleep over But I want to conquer with you Set anarchy to never after Bring liberty to forever more Alone we are survivors, caging the fiercest waves Swimming the deepest seas But, hand in hand we would drown the ocean You and I, we would drink the rivers dry And spit out islands Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne Authorpreneur

I hate my Job

Warning: Strong adult content 18+ I hate my job My boss, Miss Patricia, is a tyrant 40+, beautiful angelic face and even more perfect body, with a lovely smile, that she hardly uses, single mom of two beautiful teenage girls, whose pictures are hung everywhere in our offices. While her exterior is sweet and beautiful, her interior is dark and evil. Always barking orders at the rest of us, like children, her voice is so loud you wonder where she has the energy to scream in such a high note all the damn time She is so feared, her car horn is enough to immediately drown whatever noise or laughter is coming from the entire building The popular saying among us, her staff members, is that the fear of Patricia's horn is the beginning of wisdom I spent years searching for a job in the streets of Lagos, begging even, embarrassed by security men and spat at by lousy and saucy receptionists, to quit this one just like that. We die here! I was prepared to eat shit for as long as I could, so I ...

Riotous Love

I have always found Tony, my boyfriend, fascinating His write-ups and rants about bad governance and patriarchy got me wet and awestruck every single time I visited his timeline  Whenever he wrote a piece on Facebook and Twitter, he got thousands of likes and comments I always read every comment, especially from women who were mesmerized by his writing prowess I was once part of such women until I decided to shoot my shot, and, like cupid, I hit him straight in the heart A simple "Hello, I've read and enjoyed all your stories, maybe you could write ours someday, hope I'm not overreaching?" I had to drink almost a full bottle of bailey's to find courage for that stunt, and today, we are celebrating 8 months of the best love story ever. He was my Mr. Perfect, everything I could ever ask for and more It wasn't surprising when he asked me to join him and go for the peaceful protest here in Lagos, and like a love-struck puppy, quickly I jumped up and said yes That ...
