A Nigerian woman, Debby Airebanmen-Jegede, has expressed her love and admiration for her husband, praising him for being faithful, supportive, open about his finances, and prioritising her health and security, all qualities, which according to her makes him a Simp, by social media standard.
“I married a simp! I mean, judging by social media standards, my Darling Husband is every inch a simp,” she wrote in a Facebook post.
He not only respects me but also worships the very ground that I walk on. I remember that a church member tried to ridicule him on our wedding day for using the Yoruba respect word for me, “eh.” Still, he hasn’t changed in over 11 years of marriage. He treats me like a Queen.
It’s only a simp who stays faithful to one woman when as a typical African man, who is polygamous in nature, he has the liberty to pack wives like sardines. For over 11 years now, I have been the only Queen in his Kingdom.
Who else but a simp would allow his wife to know everything about his financial status? He doesn’t hide anything from me as far as his finances are concerned. His money is my money and we decide what to do with it, together.
As a confirmed simp that he is, he does his bits in the house; cooking, cleaning, doing the laundry, washing the dishes, and looking after the kids. How can a ‘real’ African man do all these things? Only a simp would.
He doesn’t allow me to stress myself because he prioritizes my health and safety. He would rather go grocery shopping for the family. Of course, only a simp would take pleasure in taking stress away from his wife. A typical real African man would finish her with stress.
Who else but a simp would sit down with me to make all major decisions in the marriage? As a real African man, he is supposed to have the mindset that a woman is only to be seen and not heard. It would be an insult for him to seek my consent before he makes major decisions. Right?
As the proper simp that he is, for 11 years and 6 months that I have been married to him, he has never laid a finger on me. That’s not how a true African man does. They don’t see anything wrong in ‘chastising and correcting’ their wives with slàps, kícks, knócks, and bèátings if she misbehaves. And trust me, we always do because we’re not perfect.
Only a simp would speak glowing words about his wife to his people. He does this at every given opportunity. For over 11 years, my Darling Husband has never reported me to any living human being. He has never spoken ill of me to anyone. Instead, he’ll call me aside and point out my flaws to me, telling me where he expects me to do better. Simp!
As a correct simp that he is, he prays with me and prays for me. Every single night, he wakes up to travail in prayers for himself and our family. He places me on prayer programs sometimes. He’s a simp!
He tells me how beautiful and gorgeous I am. On some days, he even sings for me. He backs me sometimes because he’s a proper simp. Oh, what a simp!
How can a real African man in his element play with his wife? Of course, only a simp will do that! It would be a huge disrespect for an African man to be caught playing games with his wife. A wife who is nothing but a slàve and a baby-màking factory doesn’t deserve the royal honour of being played with.
