Respect for the men

The secret to a man's heart is not food or sex...it's respect.


I know many women wonder why men are always willing to fight even to the death because they have been disrespected, it's simply because RESPECT is all we want. 

The reason why men have respect for each other and solve conflicts faster and never hold grudges. We respect each other. We do not pry where we are not supposed to and we have secret codes which we all understand. For example in a urinal there are bowls placed next to each other. Instead of going next to where a gentleman is handling his business another man would go to the furthest or to the main toilet, because it is respect.

Most women who have discovered this have always found life very easy. If you have noticed your mother championing for human rights but bowing to her husband as she gives him his food, it is not slavery, that woman knows what her husband wants. Of course the Bible expects a woman to submit to her husband, but he will always go for respect first.

Respect entails having his say, if there is a problem with the electricity let him fix it, let him pay for your meals at a restaurant, ask him for his opinion on a cloth you want to buy, approach with humility and avoid nagging when you want something done.

If a man asks for time to think about nothing let him do so. We men love thinking and get lost in our dreams, fantasies and visions and we are very volatile when someone decides to break our concentration. It is not a way of ignoring people, it is our way of trying to make sense of the world and planning what to do next.

If you want a man to talk to you to express his interests give him time. Respect his space and wait for him. True men nowadays take time to make their intentions known. Maybe he does not want a relationship or is not ready for one. We don't want to end up with the wrong person or one who will not be compatible with us. If you are wife material we need to assess, get advice from our boys and our mothers who know us better and can help make an informed choice. We try to avoid future conflicts if we can.

It may sound bias and subjective but that is the best I can define respect. I am all for women empowerment and having equal rights, but let us face it, we will never be the same. There are aspects about us that will be different and all the men want is respect.

If you know a man respect him for what he is worth. Do not insult a guy and downgrade his status, that is the worst sin and the reason for many conflicts, breakups and divorce. If you earn a better salary than your man do not rub it in his face;  if something he fixed in the house did not work again, encourage him; if he is taking time to propose to you do not rush him; and always talk with as much respect and humility as you can master. We men do not want slaves, we want partners who can respect us. If you do that your life with men, young or old, friends, brothers, cousins, potential boyfriends and even husbands, will be very smooth. If you feel it is discrimination, do not complain when men ignore you. Someone wrote the secret.

It's nothing new

(Bully Fanon website) It is quite a shame that Alliance has to be in the news for the wrong reasons. Usually they are in it, shouting and praising the form fours who had left the previous year for the ‘ A ’ s they brought to the school. To some it is a new phenomenon that students are beating students, but to me it is not. I went to a so called ‘ bush ’ high school. It is however famous in the part of the county it hails from. Here, beating of students by fellow students was a common thing during my time. It was almost routine. To make it worse, once you were beaten by the prefects they took you to the teachers who also beat you. Of course they were not using sticks only to beat their fellow students, but anything they found. Those who were forwarded to the teachers were usually those who had resisted the beating. The teachers also found out that sticks were ineffective and felt the need to use their fists to correct the errors of the student. I am not writing th...

I LOVE DUBSTEP!!!

(NB: ALL PHOTOS COURTESY OF GOOGLE & VIDEOS FROM YOU TUBE) The truth is I do not know why I love dubstep.  Whenever I listen to a dubstep song I want to stand up and dance. I was introduced to dubstep by a friend called Kibui. He came up to me and asked me to listen to UKF (A Dubstep recording group). It was 'love at first sound'. I could not get the song out of my head and from then on I became a huge dubstep fan. I have been listening to dubstep ever since the beginning of 2012 and I have been able to collect and listen more than 1000 dubstep songs. I created a specific folder for them. My favorite dubstep song is Crave you by Flight Facilities (Adventure's club remix). The reason I love it is because of its beats and it always uplifts me whenever am having a bad day or the lecturer has given me a tough assignment and it’s due the next day. I know some of you are wondering what is dubstep? Well I will give you the definition and a brief history. Ac...

In search of humanity

(Ask Ideas website) The world, to me, has become a depressing world. It would seem we have lost our humanity. I know I have circled around this topic, but to me it is important to repeat it as much as possible. The reason I am writing this is because there are people who feel they have no meaning in this life. I went out for coffee with a good friend of mine, a brother, when we left we met a street child rummaging through a dustbin in the cold Nairobi streets. I felt sorry for the boy and decided to assist him with some of my coins. I tapped on his back and he almost jumped. He started running and I called him back and gave him the coins. We were shocked at his reaction. We tried to guess why he ran. He must have thought it was the police who wanted to hit him for ‘being on the streets’; a shop owner angry that he is going through the trash can with a possibility of dropping the trash on the shop door; he must have thought it was the county askaris wanting to beat him for...
