Fashion Designer Veekee James says that she admires women who don't wait for their husband's money but instead feed their husbands and their children and pay the bills themselves.
While speaking at the Ladies talk conference , she expressed admiration for women who work with their hands to support their families.
She wrote;
"And the one that stands out the most is that she does not wait around for her husband’s money, she feeds her home, she works hard with her own hands, she feeds her husband, she feeds her children, she feeds her staffs".

I want to be a wife who makes her own money and support her husband/ family, but I don't want to be a wife who makes money to feed her husband and provide 95% of family expenses, Vicky please feed your husband in peace and don't tell the whole world how you feed him, your friend Prudent is richer than her husband but she lets him be the man he is, and doesn't announce it that she is richer .
ReplyDeleteYou've said it all.
DeleteThank you.
It feels like Veekee just likes being controversial, 'cause I wonder why she likes to set herself up for drags. And yeah, you're right about her friend Prudent. She moves quietly
Deletewhile winning massively.
Spot on!
Delete12:10 have you considered that VeeKee James is quoting from *Proverbs 31* from a newer version or paraphrased before YOU JUMPED to that conclusion ❓🤔
DeleteThat said, husband's role is to be the main PROVIDER of the family - wife and children while the wife's role is to SUPPORT.
If you deviate from this godly guidance, it's your personal business.
To each their own interpretation. That does not mean the man is not the bread winner. To her spending her money on her family and staff is her dream.
DeleteYou nailed it Asa
DeleteWell said
DeleteThat wife go pay bills tire! 25 years down the line, when it is time for her to start reaping the fruits of her labour, she go dey battle hbp and other health issues! I no do abeg, man do your job make I do mine!
Delete15:28, since I was born, I have never read anywhere in the scriptures, both old and modern version that advices women to feed their husbands.
DeleteGood luck Veekee, the statistics on this one only point in one direction.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to make your own money as a wife, support the family too when needed but make all of us make the money together and spend it together biko.
ReplyDeleteDo what works for you
ReplyDeleteI don't know why they are dragging Veekee sha ooo. Wat is wrong in advising women to have their own money to run things without waiting for the husband. Nne na wa o
ReplyDeleteHer crime is marrying who she is richer than.
DeleteFeed your husband in peace abeg.
ReplyDeleteISN'T THAT WHAT MOST WOMEN DO IN THEIR HUSBANDS HOUSE, SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST PISSED BECAUSE IT'S VICKY SAID IT

Delete"Some women"? Yes.
"Most women"? A CAPITAL NO.
That is why her statement is topical.
Most women do not want it so.
They prefer to live the "almajiri lifestyle" in marriage though their biological family is being fed fat on their earnings.
That is the reason for the drags, even on this blog as shown by comments so far.
Women generally 8 a woman who talks this way in public. She won spoil market ni?
Hehehehe
I feel these are the ladies that men really deserve. Our mothers did this without broadcasting it and some fathers appreciated them and some took advantage but do what makes you happy 😊. The man is happy and you are happy 😁
ReplyDeleteJust because Our fathers did it doesn't make it right.
DeleteQED
DeleteIronically, the women who talk most about love as a part of marriage and earn beyond their mothers and fathers incomes combined are the most vocal against it. Hypocrisy or Wickedness?
I thank God that you’re a woman that knows the Bible. The Bible said you’re a helpmeet and not the provider. My mother, is the breadwinner and my elder sister followed in her footsteps. I reject and refuse that for myself.
ReplyDeleteI will be a multiplier and not the provider. I love veekee but her husband looks like someone who lacks confidence and that’s because, he’s the one at the receiving end and not the provider.
I saw a video where Vicky took her baby brother shopping and Femi was looking lost, he was out of place. He doesn’t call the shots.
Anuty Veekee pls feed your husband wella and do all the necessary things a man should do but as for me, I will not feed any man with my money…as a helpmate, all I can do is support when the need arises but for me to be the chief bread winner when I have a husband is a God forbids kinda situation abeg
ReplyDeleteMen are wired to be a provider ,it’s only s!mps that will neglect their primary role and allow woman to be feeding him
Thank you Paris 😘 for speaking the truth. This is me too unapologetically and no pick me or brokies can bully me out of my own opinion.
DeleteGod forbid o my Paree nwa oma.
Deleteok na. U go explain tired u no get evidence
DeleteBig flex
ReplyDeleteNo be lie
ReplyDeleteWomen are meant to assist and not carry the whole load.
ReplyDeleteThat was my mindset. I thought I was helping out and holding the fort-lolzzzz. It’s been 15 years of holding the fort while the ‘man’ continues chasing pet projects that don’t make money. Oh well…
ReplyDeleteI pray God will double your wealth and give you good health and more Blessings.
