DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: MEN SHOULD NOT HIT WOMEN, BUT WHO WILL SAVE THE MEN

Domestic Violence: Men should not hit women, but who will save the men

Saying domestic violence is not done by men alone is risky in this era of 'online feminists' or ''Feminazis" as they are often called. A man now has to watch what he says or risk having his timeline taken over by the 'Occupy Manhood' gang, who just love to batter men.


Women have successfully taken the fine art of nagging online. Publicly, they put up a facade of being feeble, God fearing, peaceful, patient and persevering. Hence somehow women are still perceived as the weaker sex and have to be protected from wicked men.

Do not hit a woman, no matter what she does,” that's what society says, that's what pastors say, that's what women say, that's what some men say, and they are all right. No man should hit a woman. But domestic violence is not always committed by men.

What this law means is, being a woman gives you the right to ‘go up and down’ running your mouth, dishing out demeaning and repulsive garbage like small chops, and daring a man to hit you if he's a man, while the man is just supposed to stand there like an electric pole and take it dutifully, or walk away, that is if she will allow him.

The nature of men and women are different. While women are adept at fighting with their mouths, and can cut you real deep with their razor sharp tongues, men are not so blessed. Arguing with words tire them out, the only fight they understand is the one that involves their fists. So when you tell a man not to hit a woman please also kindly tell the woman not to continuously provoke a man. Let's keep it balanced.

I know good God fearing men that have hit women, because the fact is everyone is capable of violence you just need to find their trigger. Now while there are a few men who hit women for the slightest reasons and love to cut them down with their words, most men I know do not hit women. So I get confused when I see statistics like “7 in 10 homes suffer domestic violence.”

The truth is men do not have the monopoly on domestic violence. There are both abusive men and abusive women. The only difference is a woman is more vocal with her pain while a man will rather suffer in silence than expose the fact that his wife abuses him at home and sometimes publicly. So let's not be too quick to point fingers.

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...
