YES IT IS ENOUGH
We should have never tolerated this evil to begin with!!!
I have always stood by the fact that I’m not trash, and have argued that very well because I believe that as people we are different in our individuality. I have always believed that every man who respects and treats women right should be given a chance to keep his dignity by not being dragged along with the other filth that call themselves men yet they continuously hurt and murder women.
In the beginning of September I found myself in a dark corner, riddled in the shame of being a man when the atmosphere, the air was not the same. When I went online and literally saw a nation crying because of the cruelty inflicted by my gender. I found myself even ashamed to check if the women in my life are okay, because how is anything okay when we are burning down their world.
I had to have a conversation with myself while in that dark corner of shame, I had to ask myself why is it fair for me to walk out of the house without even a single thought of death, to a point where sometimes I just walk out without even a prayer, while women are at a point where they are praying for just one more hour, one more day. How do I keep fighting that I’m trash when the scales are tipped so unfairly.
What does it say about me when all I care about in my dignity when people are fighting for their lives, what breed of animal am I when I am concerned about my ego when there is a woman out there praying to get back home safe, fighting for another breath!!!
