Do Women Have Their Rights?

[Divinah Nyakundi]

Men! You have misused ladies like a tissue come back to your senses even if we are weak vessels. Respect us the way we are, don’t look down upon us claiming that you are the head of the family. Let us be equal and get the chance to inherit the property.

[Joshua]

Yes they do. Right to education, right to own property, right to worship etc. Check the constitution section…

[Alloys]

But that doesn’t mean that they should be on top of their men, or misbehave because the constitution says so. I am not being biased here women too need to be recognized as people in the society, not less beings.

You do not need to be mad on them Divinah, just know your rights as a woman and exercise them, claim them and make them aware of your rights' knowledge. I am sure they understand our position in the society for development even if they at times turn us away and make us inferior. Leadership is one area that men think women cannot manage but a few have shown great competence than men. Let us leave alone gender basis and consider the skills and ability of one to undertake some given task. What a man can do, maybe a woman can do better!

I like the way you reason out.

Maybe this question suits you best divinah, as a woman do you believe you have rights? Yes we do have rights. No one has the right to stop you from exercising them. As for man being head of the house I believe we are all aware of the curse given to us in Genesis 3:16.

Be aware of your rights, fight and defend them. don’t let anyone take that from you.
