Hi people, what's been on?

Just in case you missed it, "The Kitchen, The Living Room and the Other Room" is the unpublished sequel to the "Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" which was actually supposed to be titled "The Lion, The Witch and The Workplace".

The Lion being men, the Witch being women and the Workplace being .....wait for it....itself!

When a certain prominent man who happens to be the president of one African country passed a joke about "not knowing what party his wife belonged to but all he knew was his wife belonged to his kitchen, living room and bedroom" a lot of people worldwide were aghast!

They judged his statement to be "chauvinistic, misogynistic and insensitive" especially considering that the female leader of a certain country was present.

Did he mean she was in the wrong place?

Here's the thing....people can P.R.E.T.E.N.D. !!!!

 Why are we surprised???!!!

Anyone shocked at this mentality worldwide (not just the African mentality in particular) must be living in a bubble!
Yes I said it!!!
Everyday around the world, women protest about equality in the workplace. They complain they are being paid less than men with same position and responsibility.

Infact I'll go on to say I'm currently loving #Leaderswithoutfilter!!!I'm sick and tired of all the diplomatic BS where people lie not only through their teeth but with every fibre of their being!I applaud this speaker for being honest about the mentality that most people share.....both men and women!!!

(Disclaimer: I'm not a feminist because the definition of "feminist" is not 100% what I stand for as a woman. I'm using the Merriam Webster Dictionary definition).

Let's continue......

With some people's mentality (men and women) concerning women's role in the society, I honestly don't see the point in educating the girl child beyond primary or even secondary school especially if since at the end of the day she's expected to "stay at home". What's the point wasting money on a university education just so she meets the criteria of "being a graduate". That's balderdash!!!!!I think the concept of "Finishing Schools for the Girl Child" should be revisited. After her primary education when she's grasped basic maths (to calculate household expenses), english (to communicate in the lingua franca) and science ( to know the science of stain removal and what to do if her kitchen caught fire), a finishing school will teach her things like :'basic first aid for the family' 'how to sew a button and mend socks''how to cook meals for different occasions' 'how to set the table if the husband invites his boss for dinner' 'how to look good to please your husband''how to school your facial expression so you're always happy even if you're sad inside so you create a happy ambience in the home''how to be the best in the other room' 'money management for the good times and the bad times'etc. It will run for just 2 years (so the girl is young enough and her biological clock won't tick away) and she'll be awarded a diploma (so she has evidence of a post primary education and proof that she's the perfect wife material). There'll be no point wasting her life studying in the university only to drop her degree in the same box she drops her marriage certificate.Leave university education for the male child since he'll be the one making full use of the certificate and will give return on investment.
