NOT SO GRACE AFTER ALL


Zimbabwe's First Lady made vicious  comments regarding women and types of clothes they wear.

'Women are to be blamed for rape'- by Grace Mugabe; the controversial statement reads as follows
"If you walk around wearing miniskirts display your thighs and invite men to drool over you, then you want to complain when you have been raped. If you are raped, it's your fault.  Wear clothes like Mai Mugabe or you can choose a trousers, but not those which are too tight. These types of clothes are the signs of moral decadence in our country.It's unfortunate because it will be your fault."

Sadly we often cling to our belief system even if those beliefs makes us miserable.  Perhaps this is because knowing where we stand- even if we convince ourselves that reality is very bleak.

Shame on her, women are raped even wearing longskirts. There is no difference in the comments she made. What about grannies and infants? Where they wearing miniskirts when raped? Certainly not, they were wearing longskirts and nappies. Not forgetting children between age 2 to12 and so on- what about them... do they invite men to drool over them? That's insulting for me, impractical and immoral too.

Is people like you who creates dangerous societies by infiltrating such unethical and bad echoes without acknowledging reality or  the truth of it first. So Mrs Mugabe use your common sense and stop with your illusions.
