re: Sexual Offences Bill Would Only Paralyze Kenya by Mundia Mundia Jr,

I read your article with a mixture of total disgust, annoyance and irritation. To lay blame on women for men’s lack of moral standards or sick minds is beyond the reasoning of an educated human being.

You state "When you say that rapists should be castrated, did you ever consult the men about that?" In return I shall pose this question to you - Have you ever asked those rapists whether they asked their victims for permission to rape them before they carried out that awful act? Do you think it is that woman, lady, or girl’s fault that some man who can’t get a hold of himself violated their rights? Or do you think its justice that the victims are scared for life while the perpetrator is only jailed for a year or so? For your information, sexual violence and rape are no different to the victim. They are both violations of the victims’ rights. How dare you even ask people to separate and redefine the two? God forbid, if your mother, sister, aunty, wife or daughter were ever to be raped, would you still be giving us the same reasoning you are trying to put across without much success? Would you blame these female relatives for being raped? Or is it the fact that since the dilemma has never come close to home that you bear no feelings for the victim? I would suggest that you ask those men who have fallen victims of sexual offences be it from men or women whether they would side with you.

The fact that there are few women in parliament is just but an indication of how Kenya ranks low in gender equality and should therefore as a country be ashamed of itself. All our neighbors are working hard towards eradicating the traditional cliché placed on women and that is why they now have more female parliamentarians, while men like you deem it your duty to ensure Kenyan women remain in those stone-age years. Men have been leading Kenya since independence, what have they accomplished apart from the fact that our economy is taking a nose dive and corruption seems to be escalating. Another thing, if two people are in a relationship that is not working, who are you to know which of the two are unable to have a good relationship. And who are you to still give us reasons why woman are still single. Why don’t you ask the single men why they’re still single?

Why is it men only think of themselves and like blaming women for their shortcomings. All of us were given "Will Power" and we all need to use it. Why is it that men expect women to use theirs while they rely on the fact that men are weak. That is no where near logic. If we all used the will power God gave us, the world would be rid of sick freaks. If men want women to try and understand them, then why don’t you also do the same and try and understand women. It’s not a one way street but a two way!!!!!

I would kindly suggest that next time you want to write on such a topic, think it through before posting it. There is a way you can sympathize with the perpetrator and try to understand them (as you’ve done on the lower end of your article) without bashing and demeaning women.

I just want you to know that the beginning of your article was very annoying and unwarranted.
