These are the folks some people look up to?. Celebrities destroy lives. Any vices in any community is caused by them.
They can not endure as our mothers used to. But at least thank God for their lives. And of course, some men don’t deserve to be husband.
As Malcolm X rightly said:
“Anyone can make a baby but not everyone can take care of a baby. Father means taking care of your children. Husband means taking care of your wife. You are assuming the responsibilities of manhood”
Today, we have men made of recycle paper.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE WITH FATHERS, BEING SINGLE IS THE BEST FOR CAREER WOMEN,
I HAVE BEEN LIVING SINGLE FOR THE PAST THIRTY YEARS AND NOBODY ASKED ME TO COOK FOR THEM OR TAKE MY FREEDOM FROM ME.
OR TELL ME WHEN TO GO OUT OR WHY I CAME BACK HOME LATE OR WHY I DID NOT MAKE THE DINNER READY.
MY FREEDOM IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME.
SO, IF YOUR FREEDOM IS IMPORTANT TO YOU.
PLEASE DO NOT GET MARRIED, MARRIAGE IS NOT GOOD FOR AN INDEPENDENT WOMEN

Madam Eranks, please keep this unattractive radicalism to yourself, if marriage did not work for you does it mean others should be this brutal? These ladies separated from their previous marriages not because all the men were bad; varieties of variables complicate issues for immature partners in marriage. Believe it or not, it is not always either parties but failure of both parties to amicably resolve issues.
