Mystery of Condoms and men


One thing I admire about men is that they have very rich taste in everything and they go for quality in everything, men’s shoes range from Kshs. 3,000 the cheapest all the way to a figure I would find illogical to spend on a shoe. A pair of quality socks Kshs.300, a tie Kshs. 200 and it is good to mention these are the cheapest in terms of quality, and even condoms a packet of three goes for Kshs. 400.

I went to a super market the other day and at the counter where they sell the small items and one of the things lined up were condoms and I engaged the attendant through asking questions regarding the condoms. I was wondering why the price of condoms would vary like that, a packet of three going for Kshs 400, 200, 150, 120, 100, 50, 20, 10 and free ones from the government.

what I learnt was condoms are different in terms of texture, I understand some come flavored, there are others called rough rider, others come with studs and they are flavored and of course, the believe that the more expensive the better the quality.

In my head I am going like…It is ridiculous. I mean condoms are used for so many things, but for the most common purpose, honestly does it really make sense the price of the condom when you are at the climax tearing it from the wrapper, does it really matter. This was until one man passionately described the Kshs. 400 bob condom. Quote “when you are wearing that condom it feels like you are eating live live…like you not wearing a condom but you’re in it, that condom does not dry up apparently it is not like the Kshs. 10 bob one which dry up immediately”. 

One thing I can attest to is that the topic of condoms is very dear to our men and they are very passionate about it. It did not matter where I introduced the topic, in a supermarket, when having lunch; men were willing to give me free lectures of condoms and defend the condom passionately.

The bottom line men are very passionate about condoms and the topic of condoms is dear to them and they have very expensive taste and they do not mind spending…

Are Church Leaders Fighting The Condom Or Sex???...

I still cannot understand what the hullabaloo is all about with the condom advert. My view, that advert makes a lot of sense. The makers of the advert are realistic and admitting that married people are having illicit sex or enjoying the forbidden fruits outside of their matrimonial homes. What I construed from the advert is that the woman is not having her nocturnal exercises at home and hence her need to keep a side dish to provide  those essential services. Am sure there are many valid reasons in homes that are driving couples to leave their matrimonial beds. That, I think is what the church leaders should be addressing, not the sheath they choose for protection. We need to know why respectable men/women feel the need to quench their thirst away from home. And the best people to furnish us, with that information is the church leaders because they are the ones who do counseling to these couples. Church leaders should think of how to address the sex subject rathe...

Luo is a Romantic Language…

In my short or long stay on this earth I have had the privilege of interacting with many of the languages spoken in Kenya and one dialect I would say has stood out and I have come to love is the Luo dialect. The dialect according to me is very romantic; it should actually be classified among the others of the world which are regarded as romantic. The way their words flow, as they speak, one has no option but to enjoy listening. This is a language, firstly the words rhyme so well with English language; secondly a word can be used in so many instances until one gets confused. Take for example the now common words ‘ Gini Wesikawo ” when these words were spoken by supporters of one team who were shouting to the supporters of the opposing team, even before a football match was over that they have taken the trophy the same words have now evolved or transformed until they are featuring in adverts as a way of bidding us goodbye. Then there was the music duo Gidi Gidi and Maji M...

Masaku sevens ….I hear it was a show to behold….

I have really been thinking a lot about what I hear happened during Masaku 7’s. And mind you though being in Machakos on that day I got home early before all the free live movies started. So I just heard just like some of you. No wonder people say free things are not good. In one way or the other let us be glad it happened now in broad day light the last time Masaku sevens was in Machakos the young people were discreet they did their mating in the darkness where their parents could not see them and the consequences of what happened at night were visible the following morning with the littering of their implements of trade. But this time around I guess all bets were off and behold they threw caution in the air and hence the reason for the daytime movies.                                       ...
