Is being female a crime?


This has really been on the tip of my pen to write for a while now, now I will. But first of all, how una dey? Hope you all had a swell time during the long break? Ehmm, Jummy, hope the sallah meat hasn't finished yet cos I'm coming for mine tomorrow. Lol.

So back to today's post. I've been trying my best to understand the discrimination against female children, while male ones are protected. Female virgins are applauded and in some tribes, it is a must to keep yourself for your husband, but has anyone asked why this isn't applicable to male too? Why are the scales tipped?

So I'm going to tell you what I told myself this morning. DON'T QUIT. I want you to remember that being down at the moment doesn't make you out. Just stand up and try again cos there is always sunshine after rain. Stay STRONG.

Jolly weekend.


Happy Sallah Friday to us all. I'm so sad, I'm so so sad, you guys wont believe it, but up to this very moment, I haven't tasted Sallah meat. I said tasted not even eaten. Chai, this is very bad. I have been trying to avoid my street cos I sleep with the aroma of the cooking and the same aroma wakes me up also. Its well oo. Lol.

Wise education.

Today, I write on a topic rarely mentioned or talked about. As a child, I grew up loving movies. And I still don't know how my elder sister knew a sex scene was about to happen cos she will make an excuse and leave the room, while innocent and naive me will stay put, just for dad to shout "don't you have a book to read?" I ran out of the sitting room feeling embarrassed.

Most parents then didn't believe in sex education. What I know and learnt from sex was given to me later in life by my mum. Lol.    

The question now is, How old should a child be educated about sex? Is teaching a child about sex likely to lead to experimentation? Was it fear that made our parents not tell us about sex early or were they trying to protect us?

As a result of the ignorance most of us have, it has led to mistakes made and inquisitive experimentations which maybe fatal.

I witnessed a mother recently teaching her eight year old daughter how to use a sanitary pad and about sex and boys. I was moved. There and then, I promised myself that my kids won't be naive, or learn it by experimenting. I would teach, educate, enlighten them on the necessary things cos it will make them wise. Mothers and future mothers should do that too.

Happy holidays in advance to you all. Really apologize for the break. Ciao.

Friday feeling funky (FFF).


Finally it's here. Yes, Friday is here. To some, it's a relief but to others who work on weekends, yours truly included, the weekend is just like a work day to us.
