Some women in Kenya held a demonstration over the inability of their partners to make them pregnant. The women from Ndeiya ward -said that their drunkard husbands are unable to bear children and they may look elsewhere for sober bedmates. They said instead of minding the home-front to allow babies come, their husbands prefer to leave the house to drink alcohol all day.
Speaking during a peaceful protest at Thigio shopping centre on, the demonstrators said younger women are the worst affected as they are “unproductive”.
“If you walk in this village, you will find so many young married women, but only a few are pregnant. Those who are not are suffering in silence because their men cannot perform,” resident Nancy Wangare said. She said men have been drinking anything alcoholic to keep them high, but society bears the consequences of sexual dysfunction.
“It would not be a wonder if we start looking for men to sire our children. Our husbands will not know anything. We will trick them that the pregnancies are theirs and they will support us,” Wangari said. The 32-year-old mother of one separated from her husband four years ago.
