If any woman thinks there are no good men to marry, let them ask themselves, "Am I good enough?" If you are not good, do you think any good man will want to marry you??

Its time our women folk learn to watch news also.
Its normally amazes me when immediately the news starts, mama boy always head straight to the kitchen to start fighting with utensils, she only peeps back when she hears shouts of women demonstrating in Muranga about Mutotho law being suspended.

Let's not forget that we men are to blame...at least partly. The women we are talking about are our daughters and sisters. What have we done to make them more 'marryable'?

With women matching men...cent to cent on the income scale and harsh economic times...the concept of women marrying up and men down seems to be really pushed to the history books. Coupling this with te rising glorification of materialism and me-first idealogies, we should not be surprised if the institution of marriage becomes nothing but an 'elective'.

Not read the link but another question to be answered "do men really want to be married?" do not ask for my opinion.
The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence

They are the problem... they chase career dreams without knowing that time is running out....then when they are over 35 they suddenly remember they need marriage/kids...by that time almost all the men who could have married them 10 yrs ago are married / marrying younger girls!!

Questions
1. why would I want to marry a 35yrs lady when I can easily get a beautiful fresh college graduate???
2. if a 20-something girl can get a man to marry, how come they could not get during those ages??

Get married to your stupid career and leave the men alone, otherwise accept to become wife no.3 of some 60+ geezer.
When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.

@QD thats exactly the point in mind.
May be men just don't want to get married at all in the first place. Aren't we already seeing rising numbers of senior bachelors > 35yrs, straight, successful in careers and minting serious money -mind you they can get almost any marriageable woman they want.

Nope. Women were several hundred thousands more than men. But u r right on the other observationsShame on you


@Intelligentsia...I beg to differ.
There were 106,688 more men than women overall.
Between the marriage ages of 20-49, men outnumbered women by 239,923.

Such women wakuwe serious! Others are getting married to very good men. Kama mtu ameshindwa kutafuta, aseme atafutiwe. Dod yuko, wengine wako...Bas!

@king Applause
Carol Mutoko, Debra Sanaipei easily come to mind,yaani mpaka they went public in their search for Mr. Available (after realising haiya kumbe the mythical Mr. Right doesn't exist).
I feel for all them girls who have not been given proper advice on how to balance career and family and that a woman has a less than 18-yr window (18yrs-35yrs) to achieve this fine balance.

@DOD,washana na U.S. figures, we even discussed this hapa hapa wazua

Females: 19,417,639
Total kenyans: 38,610,097

Polygamy must be the answer. If you want to marry a good man, and all the good men are already married, why, just marry him as his 2nd wife.
