We have a massive problem

We have a deep-seated problem. If men calling themselves uncles can rape their 3-year old niece to 'punish' her mother and Uhuru Kenyatta, who calls himself president of this thing called Kenya, blames the mother...we have a massive problem. If you think that gender-based violence against women is a non-issue, you are the problem. If you do not respect a woman's yes, no, her space, her body, her rights, you are the problem. If you abuse your wife (including marital rape), your girlfriend, your female relatives, your female colleagues or any girl and woman you don't even know, you are the problem. If you support stripping of a woman, recording of her humiliation and her rape in public because you think her dress is your choice, then you are the problem. If you cheer on cowardly hiding behind social media, sharing these videos in demented perversion, then you are the problem. You are the rot that is Kenya today. Let's take this outside...i need men to tell me what they are doing to be honourable towards women, to be the positive influence in their male circles, to respect girls and women and to groom boys to do the same. Tell me.
