Responding to if it’s okay for a man to move into a woman’s house, Dr Olumide Emmanuel said:
DR. OLUMIDE EMMANUEL: There is nothing wrong with a man moving into a woman’s house because once you marry, two have become one. As long as it is okay for them. The problem will now be to bring it out that this is my house. Now that woman that you say the man is moving into her house, many of those people, the only people that know them are their family and their friends. So if a woman is living in a place, you’re living somewhere else, and you have met each other and you have decided “that place you dey, e go better o!”, then you move in. Nobody needs to know. But when you, the woman, now says publicly “he moved into my house”, then you’re the one now creating problems for yourself. So there is nothing wrong with a man moving into a woman’s house because once you marry, two has become one.
-Advertisements-What is feminism? Feminism is everybody should be treated equally based on the value they bring, that’s feminism. It has nothing to do with relationship. So no matter how successful you are, once you enter inside the house, you’re a wife. Once the two of you come together, two have become one. It doesn’t matter who brings the money. I am not the man because I’m the provider. I’m the man because it is my responsibility. The word husband is housebound, it’s to keep the place together, to make sure everything is structured, everything is done the way it’s supposed to be done. Because in this world right now, a lot of men are groaning under the load of financial this, take care of wife, take care of children, take care of family of wife, of your own family, they are dying. Many of them have erectile dysfunction, many of them are under stress.
