"When a man beats a woman, shame on him. But when a woman beats a man, he deserves it." Anyway, I can bet with my professional license that the men who were beaten by their wives in Northern Ghana were old men. I guess you will agree with me that most of the men in Northern Ghana marry under-age girls. Therefore, after dominating the lives of their young wives for a while, they lose their strengths and the women thereafter, take revenge. Do you agree with my "ASSUMPTION?"

A woman goes to the doctor, beaten Black and Blue.Doctor: "What happened?"Woman: "Doctor, I don't know what to do. Every time my husband comes home drunk he beats me to a pulp."Doctor: "I have a real good medicine for that. When your husband comes home drunk, just take a glass of sweet tea and start swishing it in your mouth. Just swish and swish but don't swallow until he goes to bed and is asleep."Two weeks later the woman comes back to the doctor looking fresh and reborn.Woman: "Doctor, that was a brilliant idea! Every time my husband came home drunk, I swished with sweet tea. I swished and swished, and he didn't touch me!"Doctor: "You see how much keeping your mouth shut helps?"

Name any of the food that we eat up north that is nutritious? If there are any food which are good for the people, then my question is that why is canned food donation from foreign nations being distributed in certain part in the north for which some office were diverting them to some retail outlets to be sold to pocket the proceeds?

I am happy for the first time seeing documented evidence of violence against men.Many women particularly those of high socioeconomic class are promoting feminism in the name of gender activism.Some women are notoriously violent and brutish and have indeed subjected their husbands to horrific atrocities.The vulnerable men are those who are alcoholics,physically weak,,relatively less educated and economically empowered.The key trigger to recent violence against men is promotion of feminism by so-called gender activist.Even in the high social class men have become serious victims of gender based violence by domineering women often highly educated and better economically empowered than their spouses.That feminism has become a psychological weapon waged against men but is also a psychological distress bothering women with its attendant consequences of gender based violence and broken homes cannot be over emphasized.Feminism in the name of gender advocacy has created a situation of reactionary or inferiority complex in most women who react at the least perception of being dominated by their husbands.Three possibilities arises when a men is overly dominated by a Superior Feminist;one is the man being withdrawn and accept the maltreatment in good faith as a result of a combination of timidity,fear and submission.Two is the man bravely and painfully accepting the situation to safe a matrimonial home built over years in the interest of his children.Three, is the man fighting back with the attendant consequences of domestic violence and broken marriages and homes.Interestingly enough highly learned and wealthy women who paradoxically are victims of domestic violence are well aware of the threats of fighting back and have cleverly avoided confrontation with their husbands to safe their matrimonial homes.It is a universally upheld principle that every man desire a peaceful and loving wife and every woman a peaceful and loving husband.In other words it takes two to tango.But if African Women are now having a western inclined notion of consciously fighting for dominance and superiority alien to African Traditional culture and norms, then marriages in Africa are in for a disaster.We are basically drifting towards a western inspired matrimonial set up promoted by imperialists in the name of gender advocacy and discrimination against women.Most of the laws in the country now favor women with multitudes of public organizations and civil society groups championing the course of women.They are bound to succeed in the gender fight and will eventually dominate men as desired.Nevertheless the future repercussions of feminism in the name of gender advocacy will be regrettable and unpalatable for the African woman.A good measure of my prediction is based on what is happening in the backyard of western countries behaving as if African women are oppressive slaves.Most women there despite their powers are frustrated because they hardly get men to marry to satisfy one singular natural ambition of building a good matrimonial home desired by every woman.

This happens all over the country not just the north. During my school days,I witnessed some southern men get clobbered by their wives in the farm and they went home and said nothing for fear of getting beat up again. Some even make their husbands pound fufu or they let them eat half done fufu. Let's not think we're all that macho 'cause some of us are real whimps. If your name is Kofi Boye and your wife is called Akosia Patapaa you know right away who the fighter in the family is. No excuses men, let's swallow our pride and confess the women are getting bigger and stronger than what our grand poppies had. Right now, they don't take no nonsense from us as they used to. Word of caution, men before you marry them, check out how many boys your would be wife beat up when she was growing up first. Chances are you will be one of them.
