I recently read a story of child marriage that are arranged by the parents in Tanzania and the woman that leading the pack to stop child marriages is Rebeca Gyumi.
I had a conversation with a man that from Africa about this subject and he said, "The man don't have sex with the girl." My reply, "Are You Dumb? If a man is calling a girl his wife, believe it, he is fucking her."
The girls age ranges from 12-16 years old and the issue that pledge this girl after the becoming a grown man's wife are:
- Illiteracy
- Likely to die while giving birth/suffer internal damage from giving birth
- Don't have a true sense of SELF to be an activate person in society
This cruel tradition has been going on for a very long time but, lucky, Rebeca Gyumi see the problem and putting action behind it to stop this injustice against girls.
We live in such a sick world that controlled by the power of money and that a parent would sell their child to a man so she can live a so called better life. Regardless, if child marriage is tradition, where is your mind (the parent) to be OK with this? Because child marriage has been passed down, from generation to generation (I know, in back of ones mind, one has to think morally this is FUCKING WRONG) maybe it's normality of life. But, Fuck That!
Continue the fight Rebeca Gyumi!
Females has suffered at the hands of a male for too long and it has to STOP!
