I heard a man telling another man buying roasted pork near me... "na man dey decide how many children e want for marriage, if the woman nor wan born more children, go give another woman belle"
I asked him, "have you ever followed your wife to the labour room?"
He looked at me for a whole and said "wetin man dey go fine labour room?"
I said "do you know many women loose their lives during child birth?"
He replied very coldly "if she die another woman go born for me"
He said so eating the roasted pork nonchalantly.
I got home, sat down on my bed and I didn't know when I started weeping
My mom came to ask me what happened, I couldn't talk...
How can I tell her that it was the conversation I had with a man that wasn't supposed to be born?
A man with no common sense and empathy.
How can I tell my mom I was crying for those women who paid with their life just to keep the human race from going into extinction?
How can I tell my mom I was crying for the women who would be alive today if they didn't get pregnant.
How can I tell my mom that I was crying because that opinion of that man is the opinion of 9 out of 10 Nigerian men.
Because my brother or my father didn't say it doesn't mean they don't think like that.
Because your brother or your husband has not said it to your face doesn't mean they dont think in that line.
The opinion of the average man, is the opinion of the majority.
Not everyone is well educated,
Not everyone has subjected themselves to much thinking.
Come on social media and see opinions of men about women...
You wouldn't want to get married.
Sisters
Choose an educated man,
Choose a man with empathy,
Choose a man who has a brain that can think,
Choose a man that is ready to do forever with you,
And dont forget to choose a rich man.
Poverty makes people think like rats.
CHOOSE A RICH MAN.
