Assertive Naija Woman
At the 1997 World Women's Conference the first speaker, from England, stood up:
"At last year's conference we spoke about being more assertive with our husbands.
Well, after the conference I went home and told my husband that I would no longer cook for him and that he would have to do it himself.
After the first day I saw nothing. After the second day I saw nothing. But after the third day I saw that he had cooked a wonderful roast lamb." The crowd cheered.
The second speaker, from America, stood up:
"After last year's conference I went home and told my husband that I would no longer do his laundry and that he would have to do it himself.
