Sorry but his findings could be viewed as significantly correct.

How would you know that? Did he detail to you how he collected his samples or what approach he used to come to that conclusion, how can you vouch for his statements validity?
In that case this man in question must have married a stupendous number of women to be able to satisfy a stratified random sampling approach. Say 50 women from each community? I doubt he is that eligible to afford even close to a dozen strata for his conclusions.
Anyway, semantics aside, his was an un cultured finding. It's obvious that the topic starter is describing "an ideal wife" and we all know what ideal means.

I still ask, r washing machines very expensive in Nai? I can't imagine doubling over to do laundry.
Cooking the old way:
Life in the village:
Today's busy schedule demands income from both spouses and duties have to be shared. Fathers can be good examples to their sons and thus teach them to respect women.

Impressive list. Only an African man can understand what you are talking about. But times are changing, and fast. Hata kijijini hakuna guarantee utapata. Your list looks like ‘cut-off points.’ Kumbuka hata Alliance ina cut-off points. But not all who go there eventually make it. The idea is to sneak in and reveal your true colours after everything has been secured.
Reminds me of another veteran mama who told me how it works. “Wanaume niwajinga. Don’t waste time arguing nao. He wants to be the head, let him be. Just decide what you want to do halafu enda mjifanye nikama mna-discuss. Guide the discussion to ensure you reach the decision you had already made! Everyone happy." Or the Romanian woman who told me “The man is the head, but the woman is the brain!”
On my part, in my lugha, older shagz mamas introduce their husbands as “…and this is my lord!” I’ve tried even bribing my wife to introduce me as such (jokingly, of course). All I get is ‘that look’, and the word “Sahau!!!”

Ideal could be one woman in a million which could put his presumed figures as liberal. I think he's next to reality rather than ideality.
The difference between a fool and a wise man is that a wise man is both but a fool is just a fool

In any case my mum will have to veto you when i take you home, and she will make sure she drums it into you that her son needs to have his breakfast made and all that shizzo......na atakuangalia na zile macho za dare you.
Honestly tho...i think 96% of women are plain lazy, hate responsibility or being held accountable and want to just be free birds

This is the plain Truth!
Not all things that can be counted count and not all things that count can be counted!  life is just another sexually transmitted Disease

When i work early i have never bothered waking up anybody in the damn hse. I just wake up, prepare my own kahawa and try to leave the hse quitely. Funny thing is mama will always wake up when am having the kahawa and then go to sleep when am gone. She does that upto now.
The Laundry is usually done by the house help but i iron my damn clothes myself. I have been doing it all my bachelor to let somebody else take over. mambo ya laini mbili kwa trao mimi sitaki so id rather do it myself.
utensils na hao. This is done by the house help too. I just intervene when i notice somethings not being done properly. I used to be one heck of a clean bachelor. So when some things are not being done to my taste i usually tell her and she and the hse help see how to correct it.
Supper.She is a working woman and i dont expect her to go back home and do supper. But on weekends she does supper and am satisfied with that.[/color]
I used to puzzle one of my house helps. Whenever i came back from work, i would go straight to the fridge and get my own damn juice. Any time i woke up late after everybody has had their breakfast, i would get my own breakfast. She confessed to my wife that she expected me to order her around. Wife told her am not the type who expects everything done for them. She really was surprised.

AHA...now that's what I'm talking about...we need more men like you jajuok. So when you make your own kahawa(breakfast?) is this for two? Would that be why she wakes up to have some then go back to bed? There are those days when you are tired or just plain lazy and feel like doing nothing, so I can understand your mama. Though I don't know that I'll just go back to sleep everytime, may be go shopping sometimes. Besides, you've got a house help right?
