My Wife Does Not Want To Bear My Name...

My name is Wale. I’ve been married for the past seven years and my marriage is blessed with two children. But the problem is that my wife has bluntly refused to bear my name. Rather, she fights me whenever I ask her to do the right thing. This has made me lose confidence in our marital relationship to the detriment of the children. Whenever I ask her to state her reason for not wanting to bear my name, she would say there is nothing in a name! Please, what is there in a name (her words)? We got married in church. Your advice will be greatly valued. From Wale.

Beyonce kinda suggests Jay Z is the only man she's been with.

"People would be surprised as to the lack of experiences I've had,' she says. 'When I was 12, 13 I had my first boyfriend, and he was my boyfriend till I was 17. At that age, that was a long time. I've always been very loyal and a little more mature. Though I was too young for it to really be a boyfriend - we didn't live together, we didn't, you know . . . That was my only experience with a guy, and since then I've only had one other boyfriend in my life - Jay" Beyonce to a British magazine

How do you know if your child is gay?

He's only fourteen, not necessarily at an age to show interest in the opposite sex, but his interest in boys of his age is alarming. The types of clothes and colours he picks is a source of concern. Also he does not like to watch sports. Now he tells me what colour make-up to wear when I'm going out. For Christmas he bought me a Sleek translucent powder. I hoped that if I ignored the signs, it would just go away. Then I saw him dancing to Keri Hilson's 'pretty girl rock' some days ago and nearly fainted
I'm freaking out, is my son gay?
Please share with your readers. Thanks

Dancing to pretty girl rock and buying powder? Ye, mogbe! Ma'am, he probably is. Me, I'm a woman and I don't even know which one is translucent powder...lol.

But all jokes aside, he's only 14, maybe he's still trying to figure out his sexual identity. He might still grow out of it..
Abi, what do you guys think?
