Let's talk RAPE

Well, this is really really impromptu (like every other writeup on this page, lol).

Let me start by saying HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to not just those who's given birth but also the prospective fathers out there. And of course, being a father isn't just about 'getting it in, pulling it out, and WOALLA, it's a boy/girl' 🙄🙄 It's way more than that...



So, this page is gonna be about me as a Masculinist (let's accept it as a valid word for the purpose of this blog, thank you 😘😘). The inspiration? Common, it's because today is Father's day. Imagine me not putting anything up for women's or mother's day... Well, iono if it counts as anything tho.



A few seconds more for paparazzi please 😉... This page is dedicated to my popman. Damn, he was and still is a father even after 7 years and 9 months of transition (I miss you man, you're  the realest, the best 💕💕). So yes, there are 'MEN' out there. And to the awesome guy friends I've got, thanks for being you, for being different, for being 'MEN' (Areo, Ayanfe...)

Enough of time wasting, this is gonna be real quick, not a full blown writeup yeah?
Generally, when we talk 'rape', the victims are always the weaker female right? And then there's everyone going to their social media handles, throwing shades at all guys,rapists especially, although a few still blame the victim, going 'blame the ones on micro wears, creating images in the rapists' mind', 'blame those who walk alone in dark corners' and all that (we know the blames we try to pass so everyone gets served...) I'll say this real quick, to start with, RAPE IS A CRIME NOT A PUNISHMENT!!! Who's called you to be the judge of indecency anyway? I'm not encouraging it either. Anyways, that ain't really my gist.

...we are all so caught up in our thoughts, 'the girls are the weaker ones and as such, the only ones that can be right?' Even the Nigerian constitution states clearly, except at the FCT, only women rape is rape enough 🙄  It has to be penetration else there's no case huh? And we're all about guys and ego, always 'manning up', keeping shits together and all? Come on!

Even I never really gave it a thought until I saw a guy's rant on fb sometimes ago, talking about how cases of unfairness to guys are treated with levity while we all are queuing behind the girl child, I also claim guilty 🙁  Of course, such cases are rare, 'he's strong enough now, how can a she overpower him', we forget some female will overpower some male, some males are weak/shy, no offences... And the funny thing is, no one would believe the story even when it comes up. Lol, even right now, I'm thinking 'if this is really accepted, won't some guys take it as an opportunity to commit the crime the more, after all, we both have a case and eligible to lawyers.'

But really, I know a few guys are hurting, I read guy write-ups and I deduce this message sometimes, will they remain unheard forever? Trust me, no one has, neither can overgrow the psychological trauma that comes with rape. Sometimes, I think this is why some guys will always be indifferent to rape cases, after all, no one listened when they were the victims (I wanted to write 'it isn't reason enough, but sometimes it is...) Only if this cry and soft mutterings can be heard and looked into...

May all rape victims heal...😞😞

Eyilz!!!

A New Dawn Is Here

Hyhyhy! Hello lovelies. So I've had this page on for, 3 years now right? And it's been idle ever since. I agree, I've been lazy, giving the poor state of my phone for an excuse. I must tell you I'm still using the phone, lol. So, I want to get the page active again, you know this fire refueled. But then, I need our encouragements. Please drop your comments on articles dropped and make sure to refer them to your friends and friends. We don't do enemies right? 😂😂 Although, there might be a little edition in the page title, or should I say diversion in contents. Actually, it was me all crazy about poems when setting up the page, but then, growth comes with a new kind of focus and determination you know. So we will be having more of gender activism, not just narrowed down to feminism, but also treating the few cases of male child abuse as they come in focus, God helping me. Maybe a few poems or motivations at times, and of course, we continually bring ourselves ...

Virginity is really no biggie afterall; it isn't the icing, let alone the cake 💁💁

...since I already took permission to 'just write' and I believe I've been granted the permit (read my apologies - previous post, for better understanding), LET'S DIG! YAY!!!💃💃💃💃 As I was saying, virginity or abstinence is really no biggie you know? Hold up, sip water, I'll break it down, let's journey... (Errm, so I realize some of my audience aren't just Nigerians, let alone Yorubas, but please try and follow, I'll make sure not to lose you 💖💖 I'll be making a few references to Yorubas. Some might even be similar to what you have around you...) ...so, I know some Yoruba gods and goddesses demand their worship done (or sacrifices carried) by just virgins just because these gods love purity. So, to start with, I'll say virginity is more about consecration. Did you know occultists demand 'virginity' in order to keep their powers safe and intact; potent. This time, more of abstinence or they are said to have committed a sacrile...

What exactly defines manhood?

Hello! Welcome back 😊 So, earlier this month, I was having an outpour of anger on one of my social media accounts, my WhatsApp status to be precise, so much that a friend had to call me to check, saying I'm a borderline sexist. Lol! You can imagine how much I vexed so much that I was called to check 😂😂 But then, like I later shared with another friend, I was throwing shades on the menfolk 'cos of younger men. Imagine a father, one of those 'I'm the man' diehards; he wouldn't mind going naked so you know he is masculine, pff! A widower! You wouldn't want to imagine how much he squanders his wife's investments after her demise. This same woman was the breadwinner of the family while alive, doing everything to give her family the best, not excluding her husband, still... Now, even at her death, he couldn't hold up for 6months. The children are thrown out of school. He's after asses... Lots to his credit. But he's the man! And the wife...
