Virginity is stupid!

like the time they told me to wait for the right man and on our matrimonial bed part my legs, yet the man who was right tore my skirt because it was too tight.

Virginity is stupid!

like the time i was told to always be honest and do everything diligently without expecting society to reward me, yet the afande at my gate will always tell me,”msichana hijawai niwachia ya chai”

Virginity is Stupid!

like the time i was told to always utter the truth and never should i say something in order to have my way, yet my political leaders lies are what keep them in power.

Virginity is stupid!

like when i was told, have a religion, stick to it and keep what you learn from it close to your heart, yet when they see me covered in  my long dress, they shame me saying i do not want to accept change.

Virginity is Stupid!

like when i was told, love your neighbor and be a friend to strangers,yet the the neighbor and stranger i loved and welcomed to my home is the one that put a gun on my head.

So now, help me understand, how i should believe in what you never believed in first…..

VIRGINITY IS STUPID!!!
