A viral video is fast gaining attention on the microblogging platform Twitter and users can't keep calm about it. In the video, a married woman was seen preparing food in the kitchen while carrying her sleeping baby at her back, her husband came to the kitchen to ask if his wife was done while recording. The wife asked him to help her carry the sleeping baby who happens to be his child to the room to sleep but this unidentified man refused to say it was not his right to do that, and that the woman is supposed to take care of the house, the children and provide him with food while he works.
He further added that he works from Monday to Saturday and the only day she gets to rest is Sunday hence he will not be partaking in any house chores. The video upon making it to the public gained a whole lot of attention with users expressing their dissatisfaction and backlash against the man for his actions. A few of the comments gathered from the post below are highlighted below;

“The Problem is that many men think marriage is like a workplace where there are superiors and subordinates, JDs and job functions. There are no bosses in marriage and everyone is complementing each other's efforts to make the family work. She's your spouse, not your slave!”.

“The husband is a highly inconsistent and selfish person. His pride and wickedness tower through the roof. It is clear that all he does is provide money for the family, then leaves the rest to the woman. The woman was even polite and explained that she needs his help. Even in her anger, she was able to articulate her points and he didn't even have a good defense for himself. She wasn't asking for too much. Just to help her put the baby on the bed and he was even bold to be recording her. Men like this are the reasons why women are scared of marriage and will not want to give their all. The time he spent arguing with her would have been enough to help her arrange the bed and put the baby on the bed while he goes back to PRESSING HIS PHONE. Why do my Benin brothers fall my hands like this?”.

“All the time he was using to make noise, he would have used that time to go lay the bed and put the baby to sleep. That's why you should avoid men that talk too much and always want to drag things unnecessarily”.

“In fairness, what women do for the family is immeasurable. Most forget their lives and careers for many years, focusing on the family, while the man goes out to provide for the family. We can't pay them back. God bless all women!”.

“His very wrong, the child belongs to both of them.
So it shouldn't be a big deal assisting her even in cooking too”.

@symplyDAPO
“Though the man is wrong the genesis of this can be traced back to when they were newly married. The woman will not allow the man to do any house chores or cook, even to boil his own water will be a fight back then. There by making the man very lazy, as time flies he becomes so lazy to the extent he is now.
That is why as a man you should always make that effort to help even if she insists you shouldn't before you become a lazy man in your house”.
