d'oh! d'oh! d'oh! d'oh!
- according to the recently released census results,the ratio of Kenyan men to women is one to one.

- despite the results, many Kenyan women remain single but in desperate need of a partner.

- Nigerian 'apostle of marriage' was at KICC on Saturday where throngs of single women packed the plenary hall to capacity.

- why are Kenyan men with stable jobs/businesses and over 35 years old, not willing to walk down the aisle??

- our ladies are now seeking spiritual intervention....if you are an eligible man out there, je umegusua??Pray Pray Pray Pray

Kenyan women are an interesting lot.Their general behaviour which cuts across the board some scares away or simply puts off the poor Kenyan man.I have a wife,sisters,female collegues and friends.I know what I'm talking about.They are at their best when they are gossiping,discussing other people especially theri misfortunes.Kenyan Women seem to rejoice when the other person is suffering ie most of them are sadistic by nature.It is very difficult to find a Kenyan Woman who is simple and good natured at heart.They all have some complexity in them.Well,I stand to be corrected if I'm wrong,but that my dear vinii is why many kenyan men are slow to warm up to our women.

It's one thing for women and men to be equal in number but it's another when you compare with the number of men eligible for marriage. Out of that number, how many have stable jobs or are ready for marriage or are monogamous by nature, etc. At the end of the day women are left with very few options. So i agree there's a crisis. Maybe that's why many women spend a lot of time trying to cut the competition through gossip and character assassination- it's survival for the fittest. The rest resign themselves to becoming second wives, mipango ya kando or marrying men with serious character flaws. It's a cruel world we live in

Men consinder a number of qualities in women before suggeting or even thinking of mariage.
Our ladies have to a greater extent lost their wifehood qualities.
The main wifehood qualities are:
1. Submissive.
Every man requires a wife who will submit and accept her role as wife and not a co-husband in the family. Before you raise alarms, i dont mean oppression but submission.
2. Prioritising family.
Our ladies today have prioritized education, career, business, partying etc. A man wants a woman whose priority is the husband, children and the general welfare of the family.
3.Socail intelligence
Show me a good wife and i will show you a socially intelligent woman. These are ladies who study their men, likes and dislikes, prioirities, weakpoints etc and treats a with that in mind.
eg. If your man loves football, try and learn something about it. U dont need to blame him for that or always throw piercing eyes on him just because he is a Sher Karuturi maniac.

well said @ Abunuasi, but don't you think its unfair to place all the blame on our ladies. I believe even men have contributed to this state of affairs. e.g grown up men with good jobs who are still putting up with their parents or men who change women every other weekend etc etc etc

I don't subscribe to the notion that men are scarce (or women for that matter).
Times have changed, so have the women. Over-achieving and career focused women are here to stay. If that criteria cuts them out there will be no one left to marry. I haven't yet met the man who is all willing and ready to walk down the aisle - men like to hang on to the idea that they will be young forever, are free to hit on any available woman without consequences....keeping options open as long as possible ... This results in capricious behaviour.

Women on their part, have became impatient and instantly want the perfect man, passing over good fellows cause they have a few flaws. If a woman can convince a guy she is too good to lose, then she's bagged him - simple. That just calls for a little patience and a level head.

Men need wives. Women need husbands. It is not mandatory but it is important. You can't beat the house; The house will grind you to dust. Just my opinion.

I understand the riot police had a difficult time dispersing the throng of ladies who could not get into the jampacked venue, even tear gas would not move them.
