- You must know how to cook! Any man that doesn't know how to cook is a liability. Plain and simple. Some guys don't even know how to boil rice, even if it's noodles, you should be able to feed yourself. It's both for you own good and the good of the marriage.
- Know what you want, say what you want and mean what you say. Why does the chic always have to ask, "So where is this going?" Be clear about your purpose and stop playing chics.
- Don't be an arrogant jerk. 9 times out of 10, you are probably not God's gift to women, so no need to act like one.
- Be ambitious. Complacence and mediocrity are unattractive.
- Stop looking for virgins. You have done your fair share of depopulating the earth of virgins, so why do you now want to marry one.
- It's okay to still party and go clubbing once in a while but that should not be your weekly tonic. Dem dey grow pass something.
- Gender roles exist, I know. I would get rid of them if I could. Don't be that guy who thinks because he is a man he can't lift a finger to help out around the house. Una no dey forbid to change diapers, get up in d night to help with the baby or do dishes. Women are not machines.
- Have something in that pangolo you call your head. Be able to carry on an intellectual conversation that doesn't revolve around sex, especially if you just met the girl.
- After a certain age, you should not be having roommates, especially if you all have the reputation of being players. It lets us know you are still growing up. You never ready.
- Above all, be honest and consistent. I know that's asking a lot but try.

Let the church say yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!
ReplyDeleteYeaaaahhhh!!! Amen sister!
DeleteAmen!!!!! I love love love love number 4. That one is my number one, number two, 3, 4 and 5. Be ambitious.
ReplyDeleteI'm not looking for no Mark Zuckerberg(if God give me I no go reject am though lol) but be more ambitious at the least.
Intelligence in men can never be overemphasized... I'm not going to have a conversation with your six-pack, am I?
Nne, sting thank ma jare #Preach
Yes o, my sister. We are on the same page.
Deletei can't stop laffing......"who wants to have a conversation with your six-pack"..this line is a classic. gbam
DeleteCan't fault a darn thing in this list.
ReplyDeleteIf I may add... Men should be receptive and willing to learn. Just becuase your used to doing or behaving in a certain way doesn't mean there are better or more productive ways of doing something. This keeps peace, makes both sides happy and you can add know skills to your resume. Not that you would need your resume any longer ;-)
please o, add more. Tell them.
DeleteThis is almost the first time I am commenting on your blog! *yeah, I am one of them, covers eye*
ReplyDeleteAMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is as if you lifted this list out of my brain. We should be sisters :) Number 8 is my number one pet peeve in men (maybe I am hanging out with the wrong crowd sef), but I mean really, intelligent conversation is not too much to ask for. Pedestrian conversations bore me out of my wits. Kai. Bless you jare, better person!
Sister mi, waicome. U be better person too. Thanks for gracing my blog with your comment.

ReplyDeleteDone! Just for you :)
Deleteok, i definitely do want to marry a Virgin, i dont believe in gender roles too, soo if im changing diapers my girl should also be taking out the garbage and mowing the lawn right? i do kinda know how to cook, but im not certain my food is what you call delicious, but my food does me well, so its ok. i agree with almost everything else on your list though.
ReplyDeleteSeriously? You? Virgin? *scoffs*
DeleteI think the garbage thing is silly. What's the big deal in taking out the garbage. As for mowing the lawn, when i lived at home, i mowed the lawn steady. In fact, my brother hated mowing the lawn and i hated washing the bathroom, so we switched. What's the big deal afterall, no be to push or drive mower. It's not like u r using cutlass.
DeleteI love love love number 4 someone once said "you don't have to marry rich marry ambitious" so true ambition will get you far in life. Lol at "i am no rapper or divorcee" hahaha i hope Ruggedman and the other one i forget his name are reading this. I hope people retweet and share this it needs to go round

ReplyDeleteFor the girls who like No 5, well em, I have a procedure that replaces hymens so do not worry. And why is cooking ability number 1? Cook like Iya-Ibeji and dont know how to em em dat thing, u and all the pots will be kicked out when she calls the police on you. So Madam Sting, oya tell us the truth what is really number 1.
ReplyDeleteLike Jesus, let me just summarise these many commandments to two. 1.HAVE MONEY, 2.SABI DO. The rest the woman overlook.
