Day
in and day out women around the world live in fear, i have seen
several videos of women being publicly attacked by men and onlookers
continue with their journey as thou nothing is happening.
During
the Valentines week men had an imaginary conference, boy how i wish
that conference was real, than we would experience life without men
for a good three days. I kept asking myself how those three
days would be like, how life without the predators would be like, for
a whole 72 hours.
Generalization
much? of course am generalizing, i am painting all men with the same
brush.
I
am generalising because men know and see what their fellow "brothers"
are doing, but have you seen a conference where they call each other
into order, not that i remember, not even an imaginary one, no.
So
are there good brothers in SA, hell yeah, not only are they good but
FINE too, Lord your sons are handsome, anyway back to the topic at
hand.
Had
there been a real conference, we would walk down to Bree holding our
handbags as we should, not hang on to our bags as thou we walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, because Bree feels
exactly like that for most of us. We would walk holding our phones
listening to music as it should be in a normal world. We would wear
our clothes without the fear of being victimised, because oh its too
tight, its too revealing we calling on you men to rape us.
Haibo
why did this conference not happen thou, why did you not attend this
conference and seat and introspect about what you are doing to us. I
know the conference was mainly just for fun, i enjoyed following the
conference as well. But hows about we also have a fun conference on
Social Media where men talk about issues that are really affecting
them, does abusing women make you feel powerful, does it come with
some sort of satisfaction, how do we deal with this.
Don't get me
wrong, am not trying to burst your bubbles, am merely trying to
make them bigger, " make the circle bigger" vibes.
Madoda. Vavanuna, we are scared of you. We just want to live in
a world where we don't have to fear challenging someone just in case
they kill us. Is that really too much to ask for. The men's
conference has come and gone, lets now have a Vavanuna conference
where we tackle issues of women and child abuse.
