It just dawned on me why so many marriages today are falling apart. It has to do with the way girls are raised today. Girls are today raised to aspire to excel in their careers. They are told they can do anything a man can. Little emphasis is placed on roles in marriage. For boys the message has not changed. They are taught that they are the heads of their homes. So girls having been pampered, well educated and treated well at home expect the same treatment from their husbands only to be net with expectations that are not in tune with their upbringing. They wonder why they should serve the man yet they were taught that men and women are equals. Power plays are the end result along with broken marriages

The Village For The Villager..
The Urbane For The Urbanites.

haiya.lol!it started in the old testament,just that we weren't there.
It falls apart cz 2 people deliberately decide/choose to break it apart.No excuse holds.
eg.Mrs ngoyoyo demanding that Mr Ngoyoyo report home daily by 6pm..
6 months down the line,he won't be reporting back for years.

When you get back tell us whether you are a villager or urbanite?


Define villager and urbanite plus the basis of your defination.

I know very many cases of men who become successful then leave their village wives to marry those who are more educated. There is one who left his wife coz once the phone rang while the man was in the toilet and the wife answered. Turns out it was his senior at work. Rather than tell the guy that the husband was not available and would call later, she told him that he was in the toilet and caused him a lot of embarrassment

I matters marriage, it would be incorrect to generationalize. Marriage are troubled both in the village and in the urban.

But I agree on the fact that some girls are not 'marriageble'.

Tragedy is, most don't realize that equality
is not the same as similar.
Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
