What are women turning into in this 21st century?
Can’t they just can’t stick to one partner? Or is it some unexplained
evolution – not to be mistaken for ovulation?
A quick perusal at a dictionary defines loyalty as being faithful or
devoted to someone or something. It can also be taken to mean “having
somebody’s back.” But if what is happening these days is anything to go
by, women are generally turning into the exact opposite of the word.
If they’re not hanging around clubs in search of sponsors, while you
are out there toiling to give them the best, they’re busy hunting for
your buddies.
“Who run the world, girls…” Pop diva Beyonce once sang. And for sure
they do. They’ve been doing it since the days of Garden of Eden.
With that said, a feeling I believe is backed by thousands of men out
there, if not millions, a story is spreading faster than bush fire of a
Kenyan woman whose WhatsApp chats between her and a neighbour leaked.
In the conversation, the woman is begging the man – who also happens
to be her lover’s friend – to go to her house for a quickie. The excuse?
She is very horny and needs some pounding.
According to her, her bae had gone to church and that she was about
to explode with bodily needs. She also told the man all she needed was
just “one shot’.
But
it doesn’t end there, Devlina also sends a steamy nude photo just to
drive her point home. Naturally, the man seems reluctant at first but
quickly succumbs to temptations.
