HOMOSEXUALITY
The
African traditional way of life shuns homosexuality; my question is why we are
letting it get to us so freely? Why are we embracing it?
As an African I know that all children are brought
up morally upright without discrimination of gender, tribe or color. We all
have cultures and I don’t think there is a culture that embraces homosexuality.
To me it’s a taboo and I will never accept it.
I have heard people say, “We shall accept these
people because they are human and we should accept their feelings and try to
support them” To me this is total bullshit because am sure no one is born a
homosexual, I have heard of people being born as bi- sexual, hermaphrodites or
other stuff but I believe that no one is born a homosexual. Our children are
learning these things from boarding schools, from foreign visitors and some
from televisions.
Parents take their children to single schools
thinking that they will be safe from impregnating young girls or even young
girls getting pregnant but what do we get at the end of achieving what took us
to school? We end up scared of people from the opposite sex and we also end up
as homosexuals, it is so sad for a parent knowing that his / her beloved
daughter or son performed so well in school but will never have a girlfriend or
boyfriend for they believe that they only have feelings for the same sexes.
Teachers I would say have failed in monitoring
what students do while in dormitories. They assume that children can only get
spoiled when in mixed schools but I think it’s the other way round. I believe
that in high school this is when children get to puberty and they get so
excited on trying what they feel in their bodies, they become sexually active
and at that time in my opinion is when teachers should come in and talk to
these student’s. I believe that teachers are not doing enough in counseling and
guidance, they have not pinned out the dangers of homosexuality and if they
have, they have not done enough in convincing these pupils.
A friend of mine once told me never to be so
judgmental when it comes to these people, he also said that I may give birth to
a child and they turn out to be homosexuals may God forbid but in my opinion I
believe that for a child to be that It means that we don’t know much about what’s
happening in our children’s lives, it means we don’t care about what they do
behind their bedroom doors and that we don’t pay much attention to the people
they hang out with or we don’t really care about the people they interact with
on social networks or even the programs they watch.
I also think that today’s child is so much more in
danger than the 18th century or before child. We are faced with so
many challenges. We learn things from all over both good and bad and I should
also come to terms with what I call good and what I call bad because what I may
call bad someone else will not call bad.
I just can’t understand how or why people would
sit down and say it’s ok for a man to fall in love with a fellow man, I mean
how? How would I just sit there and watch my brother bring his “girlfriend”
(boy) home and say “Hey guys meet my sweetheart” for me this is so insane.
I know many people who will read this will agree
with me and some will think am absurd but truth be told no holly book say’s
that homosexuality should be embraced. What are our leaders doing to stop this
insanity? In one way or another we are going to stand on our feet and say this
is good and this is not good. As Africans we have our own morals, morals that
we ourselves are letting some group destroy, let’s be people who copy, but not
copy everything, I would say take the good and leave the bad, take what will
help you and let go of what will not help you. How will you sleep with a fellow
girl or boy and benefit? It just doesn’t add up.

I would advise people to search their souls and be
the good people they were otherwise the world is rotting and in one way or
another we shall all face the consequences if we don’t stop this madness.
I will stop for now leaving you my readers with
something to think about. Where are we heading?
first to comment.
ReplyDeleteYes we can't just let our sons grow into a women.
One of the things I have noticed is separating boys and girls to extremes does this it's not just boarding schools but in mosques where men have been so deprived of women in a strict environment they developed feelings for other men.
Hide the face of a woman from a man that he only sees his mother he will either want his mother or want another man because that is all he has seen.
On the other side of things is exposure to sexualization where a young boy or girl is encouraged to sexual desires and exposed to photo's of sexual acts from a young.
This can install a very high demand and make the child as an adult hold sex or the act of showing affection in sexual ways very important and leave them feeling neglected if on some level if sexual indium's are not hinted about on a regular basis.
Fortunately for almost any loving relationship this is normal.
The deference only appears in the person who was exposed to a sexual environment as a child when the relationship is devoid of anything sexual.
becoming very painful for them with feeling of neglect and after extremely long periods sickness where they start suffering physical changes do to loss of apatite and throwing up when attempting to force feed.
