Don’t Marry A Man Who’d Call You Extravagant For Desiring Basic Things, True Love Is Not Measured By Poverty- Nigerian Marriage Therapist, Shamseddin Giwa Berates Women
Shamseddin Giwa, a Nigerian marriage Therapist, has berated women against marrying men who would label them extravagant for desiring basic things.
In a Facebook post on Monday, May 27, 2024, he responded to a video of someone claiming that using a washing machine is a sin committed by a wife.
“Saw a video where someone called using a washing machine a sin, claiming the clothes need to be hand washed for the wife to get the blessing attached. Imagine how many young men may have gone home with that mindset,” he wrote.
Life is already challenging enough; use whatever means and tools to make it easier.
– Having a maid to help doesn’t mean you won’t teach your children.
– Pepper grounded with a blender is not less effective and delicious.
– Where schedule is a challenge, frozen food to be microwaved on the go helps a lot.
– The washing machine is no longer a luxury.
The list is endless.
Gone are the days when marriage required skills such as the ability to pound with mortar and pestle, make vegetable soup, and sweep a whole compound. The values sought are deeper: intelligence, enlightenment, leadership, goal orientation, life goals, entrepreneurship, versatility, financial stability, and general coordination are more likely to get you married and keep you married. While in the marriage, these are also more likely to make life easier for you.

Why sweep a whole compound and wash a mountain of clothes at the same time as cooking at the same time as sweeping and doing several other things without expecting to get lost?
Why do all when there are given ways to make it easier?
Realities indeed differ, but the hard way is not the only way; the hard way is not the intelligent way. Irony: the hard way is only sometimes the cheapest. Seeking more accessible routes to life does not make you lazy, it doesn’t make you less of a wife, and it doesn’t make you less responsible as a person.
This is where many refer to mothers as wrong, forgetting that they, at different points, had help from the village, such as maids, nieces, and family. If they had more, they would embrace it and be happier.

Yes, sometimes these things need financial backing, which we may not have, so we go back to analog ways as we strive to improve. This is fine, but don’t get it twisted; an intelligent head is what super wives are made of suffering, suffering head.
