IF WOMEN CAN'T, MEN SHOULDN'T EITHER.

People say adoption beats abortion. Well...what about the large number of children waiting to be adopted? And the ones who do not get adopted? Also, many people do not understand the psychological effects of not having that nurturing parent around. It truly messes kids up for life. What a sad life to live in an orphanage with no family or parents!

If they make abortions illegal, they should make it illegal for men to desert women after getting them pregnant. If women cannot back out of pregnancies, men should not be able to either.

On this fine day,I was running errands with my grandma and discreetly purchased a pregnancy test and ran to the washroom to take it. Immediately, it showed a positive result. I continued to walk around the store with her, tears streaming down my face, telling her that something in the store must have activated my allergies.

Normally, I stay quiet, but not silent. I consider myself to be pretty responsible, maybe impulsive at times.

My boyfriend at the time was leaving for college...( enough reason for him to back out) Neither of us was in any place to start a family or bring a little person into the world.
Abortions are hard. Being pregnant is hard. Being pregnant and thinking that there is no way out of the situation is even harder.

I thank the Universe that i live in a country where all that was required was a phone call and one appointment and a very looong day at a very crowded clinic. I still did it anyway.

Let's save all the procedure i went through, any other blah blah blah you want to know...i think that should be on personal level. I am selective in who i tell about a safe and necessary medical procedure. so, i stay quiet, but not silent.

Stigma affects me to this day because every time i read an article about abortion restrictions or every time i hear an anti-choice person say that abortion is murder, i feel like they are talking to me, and it is not okay.

Today, i have two amazing children. They were brought into my life when i was ready and could provide what they need, financially and emotionally.

I am not advising anyone to go through it,it might not end as well as you may think. So many effects accompany such decisions and procedures... ask around. Or wait until i write on it.

Still, if women cannot back out of pregnancies,men shouldn't be able to either.

"Nani anataka kwenda boarding school?" My mother asked as we just sat there starring at her wondering what she meant by boarding school. Oh! And so it happened I was the only one who didn't understand as my brother replied saying he would never to to boarding and if it reached a time for him to be in high school then my parents should be living in the neighbouring. So now my parents turned to me with a warm smile, explained what it meant by boarding school. The fact that I'd leave behind my new friends, ( in case i forgot to mention, we were just a few months old in this town #80403 so i managed to pick out a few friends in the school i was at ), made me be hesitant. "You will have new uniforms, new shoes, anything that you'll want you'll have it new" that's my father saying. My brother just shook his head as if to pity me. Mmmh...new shoes! I thought to myself. I've always wanted to have these bata toug

WHAT IF IT LEAKS OUT

I know you probably think i am to talk about sperm or semen leaking out of the vagina after intercourse. By the way, can you still conceive if sperm leaks out after having sex? And yes, it is normal for sperm to leak out of the vagina after sex because there was enough of the ejaculate, I think. Again, can you still conceive if sperm leak out? Well, I am no expert in this but if he ejaculates deeply inside you, then no matter how much it leaks out, enough sperm will have reached the cervical mucus. PHEW! Now you already think I am to talk about Kenya. More so these people like Chebukati, sijui ChiloBAE, IEBC itself. The two main Presidential seat candidates and how sijui who leaked what about FORM THARI FOUR what and what mara Maraga, NAH, I pass. I have come across so many definitions of a Human Being and that which interested me the most is this; " The only animal that can remain on friendly terms with the victims he intends to eat until he eats them."

THE COMMON BEACH WEAR

So, at one point in my life, I worked in the print media hoping to get myself through to the TV. I managed to get some of my articles published with my own byline. ( Treeza can testify to this. hehe.)Well that's a story for another day. This particular one i wrote on 29/1/2014. Titled it THE COMMON BEACH WEAR IN RELATION TO OUR HEALTH, got itself published through so today I'll just give it a small touch. My articles always paved way in the LIFESTYLE column in the newspaper. Oh and by the way, Owiti Samwel, I call him Witty (I'll definitely write about him someday so relax), has been one of my loyal 'fans' throughout my print and radio experience. ( I just wanted to point it out to feel good. lol) #80403 Most of us choose to purchase used clothing for a variety of reasons. It can be down to them being cheaper than having to purchase new clothing fresh off the rack or it can be down to many having a preference of vintage clothing which has been pa
