RE: The Wrong Ideology of "Wife Material"

in #writing7 years ago

This is going to be an interesting one. You call is suffering but i don't think a woman fetching water is suffering. Here in Africa, water is luxury. You have to consider the financial pocket of the man. A poor man wife will fetch water and put on her head - it is the situation on ground. A rich man wife whose borehole is faulty will ask someone to help her fetch. But what happens when there is no one around and she needs to eat and take care of the family?

Wife material is over exaggerated. However, some qualities in them 'tells' you which one will stay when things go wrong, or which one will drink garri with you when there is no chicken.

This is Africa and it is technology that makes things easy for us.

So tell us those qualities that you think make a good wife or wife material because you are yet to do so.

Thanks.

Thank you sir
The article here is not to illustrate the characteristics of a good wife but to challenge the mentality that a good wife must be all round when he it comes household chores

Characteristics of a good wife are endless and unique to individual reasoning and tolerating ability
The characteristics laid down by myself maybe quite different from yours
And besides who set the standards for a good wife?

My cry here is a good virtuous woman will definitely be a good wife
Thanks
