8 KINDS OF HUSBANDS (THAT SHOULD HIT THE ROAD)




Okay, now you've had a fairy tale wedding, everyone was present and happy and the band was excellent. The food was exquisite and the whole show of doom went without a hitch.You have been looking forward to enjoying your marital bliss for the rest of your life but unfortunately you discover that you are stuck with these kinds of husbands. If you were in the least sensitive , you would have seen all the early  signs that the relationship was doomed from the start, but you ignorantly gave yourself the benefit of the doubt, based on some dumbed down story your grand mother told you. It’s time for a rain check, when you have to slip in Miranda Lambert's broken heart and figure out exactly what next to do  with your life, if you are in a relationship with these kinds of husbands. The irony about these kinds of husbands is that based on research, they are the ones ladies love to be with, nice guys mostly finish last. Ladies are usually turned on by impulsivity, extroversion,  callousness , narcissim and apathy when they come in small doses according to Peter Jonason.

1. ROLLING STONE: 

These kinds of husbands are on a journey and no one is coming along with them. They are like action heros in action movies picking up girls at gas stations. They perch awhile and then hit the road. Your whole marriage is a five- ten year stand as against a one night stand and then he would be on to the next one. He would want to get another job, move to another part of town, change his name, acquire some form of mid-life crisis and generally metamorphose into another being. The early signs usually abound. Yesterday he wanted to run the marathon, today he wants to go to medical school, tomorrow he is off to the military with interest in bounty hunting. The girls also come in handy at all point of indecision. If you are ready to live your life running away from yourself then hitch up a ride with this kind of husband. Otherwise, let him hit the road, take his fast car and keep on driving.
8 kinds of husband,
Look into his eyes and you can tell he is never coming back

2. ONE FOR ALL: 

These kinds of husbands are like public toilets, they take the neighbour’s wife to get her groceries, they give all their time to other women. Everybody calls them up to use them, they give the best advice to other people but they never seem to practice what they preach. There is nothing bad in being available for the community but when it is done to the detriment of his immediate family, then there is a problem.  The early signs are always there, cancelling a date because he has volunteered to look after his boss’s kids, never giving anyone close to him priority but living for outsiders. This kind of husband has to hit the road, you are better off being an outsider to this kind of husband than being the one who notice him change to somebody else around everyone else.
8 kinds of husband,
Always willing to lend a hand when the same hand is needed at home

3. SWEET POISON: 

This kind of husband is the type that would save you in a fire when the firemen have given up on you only for you to discover the fire was originally caused by people he had scores to settle with. He loves you with the little piece of his heart that he has left but  being in his life is like being on a battlefield in  love and war, making love on landmines. You need this kind of husband in small doses or you might die of an overdose. The only time you would feel  safe and be at peace is when you know where he actually is - in a box down the river. The premarital signs were obvious but you somehow closed your eyes to the fear in his eyes, the fact that  you never accurately knew where he was or where he was going. The fact that you felt some things were guy stuff and that it should be out of bounds to ladies. The many complexities and unanswered questions. The good thing about this kind of husband is that when he hits the road , he might leave behind a stash  of cash.
8 kinds of husband,
This guy is my boyfriend and he is missing, he was last seen at the gas station
picking up a hitchhiker.

4. DRAGON:

 This kind of husband is an abuser, he disrespects everyone and then you. He is violent, abusive both physically, emotionally, verbally and what not. He sees his partner as a subordinate whose existence is at his mercies. The early signs where the tantrums and fights he threw constantly which seemed to exclude you until it did. This is the kind of man that is so nice to you yet so obnoxious and rude to the waiter, the driver, the plumber or the milkman.This kind of husband might not hit the road until your body is in a thrash bag, especially if he is alcoholic, so in most cases it is advised to hit the road on his behalf.
8 kinds of husband,
Just Hit the road or Hit the megaphone.



5. GOOD  FOR NOTHING: 

This kind of husband may be good in bed, thanks to the tons upon tons of pornographic materials he has consumed that has wired his mind to be a sex machine and nothing else. He knows how to take you to cloud 9 but then he leaves you there, when the bills are unpaid, the plumbing is undone and communication is completely zero. He is more interested in sliding in through the “back door”, than actually changing the broken knob on the front door of the house and bringing another one with him for a threesome. This kind of husband soon leaves you high and dry. He is more of a booty call, than a husband.Your goals are intimidating to him and he finds your drive and motivation to life disturbing.You are constantly burdened with the thought of letting go of your goals and ambition to be with him. This kind of husband should hit the road and pick the change on the shelf outside while he is at it. Keep his number though, sometimes he might just be the only one to call when the weather gets cold.
8 kinds of husband,
Of course, he would do it again.

6. PARASITE: 

This kind of husband is in it for something, that is completely selfish and narcissistic . A job , a business deal, a bed space, a hot bath . There is a name for them , gold diggers. In some cases, they may not be literally digging for financial gain but much more. If you are in the market for a kept man then why not ? but if you want the good ole traditional marriage that our grandparents had, then the parasite has to walk.
8 kinds of husband,

7. BABY: 

This kind of husband seems to have had his growth and maturity process short circuited by something we all never seem to understand. His partner feels more like his parent than his spouse. Spouses of these kinds of husbands always feel like they are married to themselves and are all by themselves, as they literally have to hold the sword while their sissy little man fumbles with the torch. These kinds of husbands are usually stingy , needy and obnoxious and in some cases seem to be mummy’s boy who never grew up to grow a pair. You should have seen the signs when his mama took over the whole wedding preparation but you were too blind to see beyond your nose. This kind of husband needs to hit the road to summer camp until he learns where the wild things are.
8 kinds of husband,
Say hello to my baby daddy, it's 1 pm in the afternoon by the way.

8. CHEATER: 

This  kind of husband always likes to get things fixed, even when they are not broken. He seems to enjoy the double life, he really doesn't know what he wants and thinks on the short term. You should have seen the early signs in his eyes. You won the battle over so many others to get him to put a ring on it and thought you can immediately retire and enjoy your marital bliss only to discover that you haven’t begun to contend in the war. This kind of husband should hit the road and not come back.

Another kind of cheater is the husband who cheats on  you with the same sex. 
. If your husband just left and he falls in this category then he probably read this blog , if he doesn't fall in any of these categories then you have to go get him.However if you think he needs to hit the road,you wouldn't be wise enough to base your decisions on something you read on a blog without further reading. The only thing dumber than making a hasty decision is making no decision at all.

MALE GENITAL ODOR DUE TO BALANITIS


Male genital odor can sometimes be as a result of Balanitis. If fishy smell of the penis is accompanied by inflammation of the glans penis, then there is a very high probability that the person in question is suffering from balanitis. The glans penis is the rounded head,( the tip) of the penis. If this fishy smell is accompanied by redness of the foreskin, redness of the penis, other rashes on the head of the penis, foul smelling discharge from the penis and painful foreskin and penis and you somehow happen to be under 4 years of age then that noxious smell oozing out of the male genitals just might be as a result of  Balanitis. 
Balanitis are mostly common among uncircumcised boys under 4 years although it  occurs in adults too. According to statistics Balanitis occurs in approximately 1 in every 25 boys and 1 in 30 uncircumcised males at some time in their life. Male genital odor due to Balanitis is very rare among circumcised adult males.
Balanitis can be caused by a host of issues. Such as irritation by environmental substances, physical trauma ,infection by a wide variety of pathogens such as bacteria, virus, sexually transmitted diseases and the fungus such as candida, the same one which causes male genital thrush  and irritation to the penis from chemicals that exist  in condoms, lubricants and spermicides, detergents, fabric conditioners and perfumed soaps , shower gels etc.
Diabetes can make Balanitis more likely,especially if the blood sugar is poorly controlled. This would make glucose appear in the urine which might get trapped in the fore skin and help bacteria to multiply quickly.

RELATED POST: MALE GENITAL ODOR ELIMINATION | MALE GENITAL ODOR DUE TO YEAST INFECTION

Male genital odour due to balanitis can be prevented by proper cleaning of the penis. The cleaning of the penis  cannot be over emphasized. The foreskin should be retracted so that the glans penis is exposed when washing. The  male genitals should be washed gently with mild water and not soaps, mild male genital products  such as Bluemoore Intimate wash  might come in handy. Male genital should be dry before replacing the foreskin, so that no moisture is trapped. Washing the male genital after sex would also go a long way  to prevent Balanitis. A condition called phimosis in which the foreskin is too tight to be pulled back leading to the entrapment of moisture and sweat and urine might also lead to Balanitis. In such cases, a doctor has to be consulted. 
To be sure that a particular male genital  odour is due to Balanitis you would need to undergo a blood test to determine glucose levels, urine tests in case of diabetes and a swab of the glans penis would be taken to be analysed for infection. Balanitis might also in some cases be a symptom of other skin conditions like psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema and lichen planus. In eliminating male genital odour, it is pertinent to know the cause of such and take appropriate precautions.

LETTER FROM A MISTRESS


The Mistress
Hello, Wives of our Lovers. We, Mistresses don't intentionally go hunting for your husbands, we meet them like you meet people everyday, through friends, at the supermarket, at work functions ,hell even on the side of the road. We don't always know from the get go the man is married because a lot of these brothers don't wear rings or come with a stamp saying "taken". Half the time ,he's alone, there's no trace of you, even in his car! It takes a well trained eye to spot traces of another woman, e.g seatbelt perfume, weave strands, hair oil on the headrest, etc.

My job as a mistress in your relationship is to give him a break from reality, yes, you and the kids are real but so are the bills and school fees and work stress. I'm where he de-stresses. I, the mistress know my place, trust me I do, I know to keep quiet when you call while we are together. 

I know not to spend on his credit card but to ask for cash, all this is to protect you, yes ,you, from pain, humiliation and suffering, I get a tired frustrated man and send you a well rested happy man, thank me, don't disrespect the mistress for it! Calling me won't change the fact that my clothes are expensive and my car is paid off, it won't change the fact that my university fees are paid and I get to go to the weekend conferences or boy's nights out, swearing at me won't change the fact that he grabs my headboard while he rocks my world and screams like a girl, something you probably don't even know about the man you married.
You  don't know the effort we put behind our little rendezvous just to keep your pudgy Bottom happy, and feeling secure.

Trust me, the mistress the more you come after me the more he wants me, the more money he spends on me, the more intense our sessions get.
A true mistress will never ask him to leave you, instead she encourages him to stay with you even if you have messed up badly.

We never consider getting pregnant out of fear of having to deal with your sour face for the rest of our lives. So relax, your kids are priority numero uno, even to us, we pick out the toys and clothes he shows up with, we encourage bonding time.

Consider yourself lucky if you find my number,saved in his male co-worker's or boss's name, at least you know he's taken care of when you  are tired, and he's gonna come right back once we done re-furbishing my apartment. Oh and trust me, I do the fighting for us, its my job to make sure its just us two, any others will be dealt with severely by me, so don't ruin your manicure, I get a weekly one so its okay, let me do it.

I respect you, hence I stay away from family functions and make sure I take all my stuff out of the car when I was there,
I don't call after he's left the office because I know its your turn.
I, the mistress have my own things, the rest is just a bonus for having a kind and sharing attitude, I'm a professional with a great job and earn enough, I don't have time to tend to a full time relationship, not that i have one anyway  hence i don't mind being the mistress and  I don't mind when he goes home to you.

RELATED POST: LETTER FROM A WOMANIZER | WHY CHEATERS CHEAT

My advice to you wifey is to  stay in your home, and don't pack your stuff and go tell your mom how you failed at being a wife, it just makes you look silly and weak and our man needs strong women around him. Look after your kids, tend to your home, cook those hearty meals you are so famous for, I can't cook with these nails. Don't ask about me, he's just going to lie and toss and turn in bed thinking about me in my Victoria secret set he bought me for valentines day.As you know, the mistress always gets the sexy stuff. Let me be, I will leave on my own accord one day, when i get tired of being his mistress.

If you don't we might just  trade places and you are going to blame  everyone but yourself for taking his heart from you. I don't intend to, I would rather spend my time and money on expensive holidays with our man. Truth is, I make him feel good, I'm a reminder of when he was young and I do all the things you are afraid to do, or just won't do because you believe you are past that, I'm forever young and I compliment him, you suit him, trust me honey, there is a huge difference.

I respect marriage and all it stands for, that's why I'm doing my part to help yours stay together, so don't think just because i'm a mistress I don't, I respect the nice thing you have done and I love your kids too much to hurt them. Don't cry over me, or what we do, let it be, play your part and I will do what I'm supposed to do.

Yours (and your mans)
The Hot Lady who lives across your street.

THE PREGNANT WOMAN AND HER HUSBAND'S CHORES




Pregnancy is a very delicate Period of a woman’s life and her husband has a lot of chores to handle while she stays pregnant.  Here are a few chores that should be handled by her husband ,not just because handling these chores might harm the pregnant woman but also because it’s kind of your “reward “ for knocking a woman who was on her way to head wall street only for her to now watch her body disfigure while she has less amount of energy to even get out of bed on some days.

1. CHORES THAT INVOLVE CLIMBING: The pregnant woman and her husband should know that all chores or activities that involve hopping on a stool or table to fix something should be totally avoided for a pregnant woman. Hanging curtains, cleaning ceiling fans, brushing the ceiling , getting rid of cobwebs or climbing on a stool to hide a stack of stolen cash behind the portmanteau that contains plumbing equipment is not advisable. During pregnancy, with the increased growth of the woman’s mid section comes a change in the center of gravity which makes them more vulnerable to falls.
Pregnant women, pregnant woman and her husband
This is not a chore and if you can do it then why not?
2. CHORES THAT INVOLVE CHEMICAL USE:  The pregnant woman and her husband need to note that the woman must lay off activities that brings her in contact with harsh chemicals. As a man once recalled, “ my wife’s skin was hypersensitive to soap products, she couldn’t wash dishes, clothes or even clean the tables without getting water boils”. From as little as  everyday soap products to harsh chemicals used for cloth and bathroom bleaching and cleaning up after pets, chemicals should be avoided as most of them have noxious fumes. Once they smell harsh, then they shouldn’t be used by the pregnant woman but her husband instead. Natural cleaning products like lemon, white vinegar and baking soda should be used .Using gloves when washing would also help protect the sensitive skin. Cleaning up after cats  also might expose the pregnant woman to toxoplamosis, a parasitic infection transmitted via cat feces  This explains why cats are mostly kept by lonely woman who never hope to get pregnant. Get rid of that creepy cat, you’re about to have a family now. The cat’s work is done.(Sorry, Ellen!)
Pregnant women, pregnant woman and her husband
That cat would make you birth a monster


3. CHORES THAT INVOLVE HEAVY LIFTING: Any chore that involves heavy lifting like furniture rearrangement, picking up other children or weight lifting at the Olympics should be done by her husband. The pregnant woman and her husband needs to come to an agreement on how he is going to break his back lifting heavy materials around the house or If he is wise enough use a lever. The increased weight of pregnancy would cause a pull on the spine and would make the pregnant woman susceptible to back pain , heavy lifting would accentuate the back pain and make it chronic. Putting heavy materials on the head also counts as heavy lifting and would also affect the back.
Pregnant women, pregnant woman and her husband
The Husband should do this.
4. CHORES THAT INVOLVE BENDING : Gardening especially should be avoided by a pregnant woman and should be taken up by her husband. Chores that would leave the pregnant woman bent for long hours would lead to miscarriage, premature birth, preterm labour symptoms, placenta previa or more dangerous complications to the pregnancy and the pregnant woman. The pregnant woman and her husband must make an arrangement for him to take up chores that would lead to bending. Bending can cause the inflammation of the sciatic nerve which runs from the lower back to the entire leg. The weight gain in pregnancy already puts a lot of pressure on the nerve, bending it would literally snap it.

5. CHORES THAT PUTS THE WOMAN AT RISK: Any chore that might lead to a direct kick or blow on the stomach should be avoided. Working with animals, in the factories during the third trimester of the pregnancy  when the stomach has taken on a pear shape is totally inadvisable  The pregnant woman and her husband should  make an arrangement on how to help the woman get past these sort of chores.\
Most of the chores at home or in the office fall into one of these categories, so this is in a way telling the pregnant woman to do nothing, take a stroll from time to time, read what to expect when your expecting, take phone calls, take evening naps, read blogs, have a baby shower, see your doctor, go for pre-natal treatments and indulge in all your food cravings, eat anything and everything, except alcohol, tobacco, sea fish and whatever your doctor tells you not to and let the husband do the chores.
If you think this article is targeted at the husband as a form of punishment for  knocking up a woman, you  may not be wrong.If you think that  this is unfair then consult the man who made the empathy belly and see how it goes from there.
Pregnant women, pregnant woman and her husband
You can have fun with him, if he is a good sport,
Pregnant women, pregnant woman and her husband
Or go out and play with some new toys. Screw Gun Control

WHY CHEATERS CHEAT


why cheaters cheat
There are cheaters and there are womanizers. In the morality court, womanizers seem to always get the bail. Womanizers make up their mind on what to do , cheaters simply cheat. Cheaters never win.Cheaters seem to live their whole life keeping up appearances, watching over their shoulders and constantly living a lie. But why do cheaters cheat?. Simple they are called cheaters, so they cheat. Womanizers know what they want, their freedom, sense of choice and variety e.t.c, cheaters know everything but not what they really want.




1. Neglect or feeling of Neglect:    

Most cheaters cheat because they feel neglected in their relationships. The feeling of neglect means literally that the cheater feels their emotional, material , sexual  needs have not been met by their partners and in some cases, it may not be true.

2. Boredom and Lack of Variety: 

Womanizers become cheaters most of the time when they are in a monogamous relationship because they get  used to variety of the past, being with several mates without any strings attached. This goes both ways for men and women and the fact that no strings are attached to the sexual activities makes it even less guilt ridden and easier.
why cheaters cheat,boredom
I wonder what Rodrigo is doing right now, if he was here
he would sing to me and say dirty things.

3. Loss of passion and attractiveness: 

Cheaters cheat on their partners often times because they feel less attracted to their partners like they once did. The indifference to physical appearance after  some time in a relationship can do a lot of harm to the relationship. Instances when the partners get so used to themselves and the routine their whole relationship has now become that they  lose the drive to constantly look and feel attractive and romantic to their partners might lead one partner to cheat. Cheaters cheat at times because the spark they once enjoyed in their relationship has fizzled away with time. The “spark” is usually as a result of endorphin released by the brain when one falls in love as time goes and the relationship continues, the biochemical  environment in the brain slowly changes.

4. Loss of respect and appreciation: 

Cheaters cheat often times when they feel they are no longer appreciated in their relationship. No one is drooling on them anymore. This particularly affects the men . They sometimes cheat to find some kind of validation in their bruised ego and masculinity. Their present relationship has figuratively picked them up and sat them down and called them a “sissy” but they are too much of a  coward to bail  but instead chose to find some kind of validation by cheating.

5. Fun in the chase: 

Cheaters cheat at times just because of the fun they get from the whole game of cheating, cheaters sometimes get addicted to the adrenaline rush that accompanies the act of cheating. The fear of getting caught, the task of keeping the cheating a secret and living the double life without any hiccups.  The act of cheating has been proved to make men‘s brain work twice as effective as it would have done if they were faithful in a monogamous relationship. Some people become addicted to this and just always want to cheat in a relationship ,just as bad as a junkie needs cocaine.
why cheaters cheat
This is always fun

why cheaters cheat
until this happens


6. Parasitic relationships: 

Cheaters cheat oftentimes because they are in parasitic relationships or are parasitic kind of people, who go into relationships only for their own selfish personal benefits. In such situations, cheaters could care less about the well being or needs of their partner and would cling on to as many people that can give them what they want, when they want it, and how they want it. A more English Appropriate name for this parasites is narcissist. Narcissist are sometimes born not only made.
+2% every time he get his heart broken.



7. No deal breaker:

 Cheaters cheat often times because some relationships are entered into without proper communication of  the deal breakers. They often get tempted to sway  when they find someone eccentric but with no knowledge of deal breakers in the relationship which has been properly communicated, cheaters sometimes cheat because they think they can eat their cake and have it.
Cheaters usually receive the short end of the stick, because when they get caught , they tend to lose all, fill themselves with regret and remorse and watch their whole lives tear apart. Cheaters however in some cases need to undergo therapy and counseling and maybe someday there would be a rehab for cheaters because at least they have a show on international television. If you have been cheated on here is how to handle infidelity. If you plan on cheating, here is a word for you from Jesus Christ, "What you are about to do, do quickly."

LOSS OF A LOVED ONE


loss of a loved one
The loss of a loved one is one of the most painful experiences that anybody can go through. People across the world die every day and we seem to be quite indifferent to such occurrences  We live in a world where it is gradually becoming difficult to process emotions and where the value of a human life seems to be depreciating faster than the Zimbabwean dollar. People die daily in the hospitals, in accidents ,bomb explosions, robberies , shoot outs and what not but someday it eventually comes around and hits home. The loss of a  loved one occurs. Gone! , never to be seen again.

SHOCK

Depending on the conditions surrounding the death, the most common immediate reaction to the news of the death is shock also known as acute stress response, this is especially common when the loved one  was not expected to pass . It mostly comes as a result of the disbelief that death could actually hit home, the psychic re-experiencing of the circumstances leading to the death.This should not be confused with circulatory shock. This is the mind’s and body’s response to instances of intense helplessness.  This should be immediately treated with psycho pharmacological treatment  such as antidepressants and cognitive behavioral therapy which helps to change the  patients  thought pattern.

THE QUESTIONS

Depending on the circumstances surrounding the death of the loved one, questions are bound to arise. Why is this happening now? Why didn't I see this coming? How could I have prevented this? Why did God not save the dead? Was there a sign that I neglected? Am I the cause of the death? The questions never seem to end; they will keep pouring in one after the next. Answers never seem to come, resulting in a downward spiral into the pool of grief. Most questions seem to go unanswered or better yet, not appropriately answered. The mind is put on a futile task to find a perfect answer that would make the death of the loved one sensible; a perfect reason that would tie the loose strings, but it most of the time never comes. In answering these arising questions, you always have to understand that life is full of ups and downs and some occurrences just would never make sense.  So when those questions arise, answer with this simple answer, " life sometimes hits you with a brick on the head, you must still never lose faith."

GRIEF

The unanswered questions immediately lead to deep grief , sadness and sorrow. Coming to terms with the reality of things can also be very depressing based on the circumstances surrounding  the death of the loved one. The best way to get over grief is to let the emotions flow freely, let the tears roll, lets the screams and wailing ring in the air,don’t suppress anything. It is a tradition in ancient Africa to beat up women who have been bereaved with the hope of getting them to cry and get relief from grief. Don’t bottle  up your emotions and don’t listen to people telling you not to grief, talk about it, cry about it, sing about it, pray about it, give yourself time, people get over grief at completely different times but whatever you do , you have to let your emotions out to get over grief. During the time of grief, ensure, you still eat and drink lots of water to help the body system stabilize and see a medical doctor for check up.

REGRET

Depending on the circumstances surrounding the death of the loved one, there are instances where regret and bitterness may envelope the bereaved. After the death of a loved one, there are usually flashbacks on the life of the person and sometimes, the bereaved might recall  certain instances  in which they had premonition of the death of that particular loved one or signs which they seem to have neglected. Regret  might also come from procrastination of intentions relating to the loved one who had passed.  Things you planned to do but never did until the death of the loved one.  In  such situations you simply have to forgive yourself and let go of the hurt.  At times in life, we have premonitions, not to change the situation or prevent the situation from happening but to prepare for it  to happen and there is sometimes nothing we can do to change it.

PAIN

When a loved one dies and the bereaved seem to have gotten over the shock and grief, they move on to the final most difficult stage which is pain. This mostly happens as a result of the physical, emotional and spiritual void which the loved one filled while they were alive. The thirst for the loved one emotionally, physically and materially often lead to this pain which  differs in duration and magnitude with each person. This period of pain usually occurs when everyone is done sympathizing and empathizing, friends have stopped calling and life has began, it involves the life adjustments the bereaved would have to make to survive without the loved one. In this stage, the only way to heal is to talk about it, tell people, anybody what the loved one would have done if he or she was still alive, that way you move towards closure. Your subconscious begins to learn to eradicate that need for the loved one as it would never be filled again.

LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE WITH TEARY EYES.

When a loved one dies, we have people around coming to console and sympathize with the bereaved. In most cases, they prevent the bereaved from expressing emotions, and grieving , the bereaved in turn tries to come out of the grief and look into the future with teary eyes only to discover the void which the death of the loved one would bring. The responsibilities which the loved one has left behind which seemed to be perfectly suited for the loved one. In such situations, you have to know that tomorrow would take care of itself, everybody would eventually adjust and someday, somehow, life would continue because it already does, it’s already continuing."Death of a loved one at an unexpected time makes you see everything in life so differently. Suddenly most things are just not a big deal."

MALE GENITAL ODOR DUE TO YEAST INFECTION.



Apart from male genital odor due to poor hygiene practices, male genital odor can also be caused by yeast infection in the male genitals. This affects females too but seem to be more common in males especially among uncircumcised men. Yeast infection is not only limited to the male genitals, it can  develop in the armpits , between the fingers or between rolls of skin in very overweight people. It is characterized by red and painful itchy rash on affected spot,bumps, scaling, softness and paleness of the affected area, swelling of the head of the male genital, penile discharge, discomfort or light pain when urinating or during sexual intercourse and of course pungent and unpleasant genital odor. To combat this male genital odour due to
yeast infection , the yeast infection has to be cured.

What causes the yeast infection?

Yeast infection also known as male thrush is not regarded as a serious condition except it is accompanied by high fever, nausea, headache and trembling in which case quick medical attention should be sought. It is also sometimes noted as a gateway infection which increases your chances of contacting sexually transmitted disease although there is no solid scientific information to back this up. Thrush is caused by the Candida albicans fungus.  This fungus is  present in different parts of the body and kept under control by the body's immune system and other harmless bacteria. Thrush can develop when that subtle balance is disturbed.

Yeast infection is caused mainly by three things:

1. Irritated skin: The skin of the male genitals are very sensitive and soft , and hence are susceptible to irritation easily.  The use of  lots and lots of perfumed showered gels and soaps  which contain harsh chemicals like triclosan, sodium laurel (or laureth) sulfate (As little as a .05 percent concentration is capable of causing irritation according to a 1983 report of the Journal of The American College of Toxicology (ACT) however,the concentration can be as high as 30 percent in some soaps presently  on the market.) and a lot of  fragrances can cause great irritation to the skin of the male genitals.  A damaged skin is a good place to thrive for the candida fungus and since the skin of the male genitals can be easily damaged, it has a higher chance than any other part of the body to become infected with yeast infection.  Males who are also in the habit of masturbating with soaps and lubricants are also in  great danger of contracting yeast infection.
2. Heat and moisture: Heat and moisture trapped around the male genital area is about the major cause of male genital odor, it also provides a very good  environment for candida fungus to thrive. Wearing those extremely tight briefs for the sake of fashion and  not completely drying out your balls after bathing can cause moisture to accumulate between the thighs and when heated would provide room for  the candida fungus. The foreskin might also serve as a trap for moisture if not properly cleaned and aired.
3. Changes in the immune system: The balance in the immune system can be greatly uttered by the ingestion of antibiotics or in HIV positive patients, or during unhealthy eating and exposure to stress and diabetes that might lower the immune system causing a shift in the balance of bacteria in the body and undermining the immune system.
Other causes of male thrush includes ironic the over use of antibiotics, the use of steriods or being diabetic.




Remedies.
1. Hygiene: This is the most important remedy for yeast infection on the male genitals, washing regularly, and cleaning afterwards or after sweating is very important to prevent yeast infection on the male genitals
2. The use of Anti-fungus cream: These over the counter creams should be used for 2 weeks according to the prescribed dosages, the symptoms usually disappear after one week.
3. Costicosteriod cream: This is usually prescribed by doctors  in case of male genital itching and soreness. Applying yogurt with no sugar or flavors (if you can find that) also does the trick for male genital yeast infection, using athlete’s foot cream would also treat the infection as it is also an anti-fungus cream and yeast infection is just like athlete’s foot of the male genitals or female as the case may be. 
Male genital odour if accompanied with itching , swelling or discharge might be a yeast infection and should be treated as such.
4. The use of coconut oil on affected areas would also help kill yeast infection.
5. Doing the Yoghurt dunk, which involves putting the male genital in live natural yoghurt once a day can also help cure yeast infection and subsequently male genital odor

GUN CONTROL- A POEM

Gun Control- A Poem

Gun control, youth , guns, control, youth development,
Gun control? I'll shoot them all dead.
“Your money or your life?”He shouted aloud
He had a gun
He had the guts
He also had the control
“I want all your profits”

“I want all the expensive things you got”
His mother loved him
His father adored him
So he got an ice cream
Funny, smart
He made the people laugh 


RELATED POST: THE PERFECT ESCAPE
Years passed behind him
Friends he knew left him
Time was running against him
He had to get the money
He had to get the life
Youthful days were over
He had to be a man
He had a job
He had to work
He had to get control
Hungry, angry
He made the people laugh


 One chance he had to take
The extra money he had to make
It wasn't going to come from the dough he had to bake
But the law he had to break 
The money for the life he had to change
He could no longer watch life spin out of control
Gun control, youth , guns, control, youth development,
Now control this!
 “All of you get down to the floor” 
Gun control, youth , guns, control, youth development,
Personal Gun control collections.
“Show me the   money or I’ll show you your life”
He had the gun
It didn't contain any liquids.
He had the control
“Why does he always get a gun?”

“He is a boy” was the reply. 
They always start with toys.
Laugh today, cry tomorrow
Desperate , callous

Why are the people no longer laughing?

WRONG REASONS TO GET MARRIED

WRONG REASONS TO GET MARRIED
wrong reasons to get married, marriage

Marriage is beautiful. However in recent times, we  have seen the great decline in straight marriages all across the world.
     Marriage, the once beautiful fruit seems to have left a bitter taste in the mouth of so many. “Why do I have to put up with someone else all my life?”, Jacqueline 28 had responded. A lot of people around the world have resorted to living together and open relationships. Why the decline in marriage can be linked to decline in earning power of men, protection of personal wealth and assets which might be lost in marriage and other behavioral abnormalities and beliefs. One of the major reasons for decline in the rate of marriage and increase in the rate of failed marriages are that people get into marriage for all the wrong reasons. They give themselves all the wrong reasons to get married and what makes these reasons wrong is that they cannot sustain a marriage and would rather bring an abrupt end to a marriage. We are going to explain a few here. 

1. Lust:

 One of the many  wrong reasons to  get  married is lust. It also happens to be the commonest reason why people get married. The thought of having a magazine cover girl or a well ripped athlete all to yourself might seem nice enough. The prospect of eroticism and sexual prowess that would be enjoyed  exclusively in the marriage also seems most of the time to blind individual from obvious signs of incompatibility and lack of communication whatsoever , all needed for marriage to succeed.  Everything seems to boil down to physicality in a lust filled relationship .Lust is one of the  wrong reasons to get married. Because it eventually wears out  and the marriage ends even before it starts.

If you marry me, i'm going to do nasty things to you each night until you weep.

2. Infatuation:

 Ever heard of the term” love at first sight”. Experts say that is a typical example of infatuation. You know it’s infatuation, when you are constantly thinking of how to reveal yourself to the other person based on your idealized vision of the other person. You immediately lose all form of security in yourself and are consumed with the thought of the other person liking you. You can't take your ground because you don’t want to lose the person. You basically work on egg shells doing everything in your power to recreate yourself for the person. Infatuation is what most love songs, and films portray as love, where you lose all sense of individuality and drown in this exhaustive experience. Infatuation, one of the wrong reasons to get married would sap out life from you, it would put your life goals and sense of individuality on hold and when you don’t get back the “so called love” you believe you deserve or your partner is not as infatuated as you are. You lose it, the whole marriage comes crashing down. Infatuation ends as fast as it starts. Getting married within weeks of first meeting each other is one of the surest signs of infatuation. 

3. Following the norm:

It is believed in most parts of the world that marriage is compulsory and is some kind of achievement and so every youth must eventually work towards that. Following the norm is also one of the wrong reasons to get married. Marriage is work and should be between two consenting adults who understand what they are going into and are ready to make it work and make it last. If you are not ready for that, there is no point following the norm of getting married just because you are expected to or because you love the idea of marriage itself or the fear of remaining unmarried because everybody is getting married. Marriage is beautiful but the aftermath of a broken marriage is like a scar that never erases even when you remarry. Do not allow yourself to be put under any pressure to marry by friends, relatives, parents or coworkers until you are ready to spend the rest of your life with someone you love, sans lust and infatuation.

4. Forcing Commitment:

One of the wrong reasons to get married which is also very common among the female folks is the need to force your partner into commitment to prevent being jilted in the future. Commitment should be gone into willingly and no one should be coerced into commitment. Marriage should not feel like a prison, it should be beautiful and enjoyed.  You would be wise enough to skip certain activities or functions until marriage to increase the value and incentives for marriage but not putting your partner  into a leash where he or she would be dragged into commitment under duress. Marriage should celebrate individuality as well as togetherness and forcing commitment would build marriage on a wrong foundation which would eventually send it tumbling down.

5. Money: 

This is arguably the most common of all the wrong reasons to get married. Financial security that a marriage can offer drives a lot of people into marriages they would otherwise not have gone into. This reason seems acceptable and laudable and a lot of people would applaud a lady who marries into money but the trick is,most monies comes with a lot of issues and the money in most cases is not worth the price of loneliness, unworthiness, paranoia and family feud that you have to put up with. Worst off, when there is a pre-nup. For the money bag, marrying someone because you possess the money you believe the other person needs would only be successful as long as the your partner, fails to apply themselves and make enough income on their own to fuel their sense of individuality and freedom. There has been several cases where a lady marries into money only to get some opportunities of applying herself and getting financial rewards on her own during the course of the marriage and then bailing on the marriage, or totally shifting all focus to herself and her money making enterprise.

6. Escape Route:

  Taking marriage as an escape route to leave a town, a city , your family or relatives is also one of the wrong reasons to get married. The purpose of marriage far transcends that and going into a marriage because  of such trivial reasons is asking for trouble. Find ways of dealing with people you don’t want in your life other than getting married and getting whisked away into a new world filled with new challenges and discoveries that marriage offers.

7. Pity Party

 Marrying someone out of pity is also one of the wrong reasons to get married and it ranks as one of the dumbest too. Feeling sorry and feeling responsible for someone is good enough, marrying them for that is just straight up dumb. Marriage is more precious than a relationship based on pity except of course the person in question  has about 6 hours after the wedding to live, then you can be over your dumb decision  in 6 hours otherwise you would have to spend the rest of your existence feeling dumb and dumber and it would be way worse to break out of such relationship because you would look worse than when you went in. This is also as dumb as marrying someone with the hope of changing them into your lifestyle, your religion or your culture. Even if they show early signs of tagging along, remember that is what it is, tagging along, not change, marriage is not supposed to impose a change on anyone. It would only go so far before you start wishing being run down by a high speed train.

This guy's picture pops up when you google, "marrying out of pity" because
he is the first African to claim he married out of pity. He also
happens to be an Actor who came to limelight after marriage.

8. Cultural beliefs: 

 A lot of Asian marriages fall under this category. This still doesn't change the fact that it is one of the wrong reasons to get married. Marrying to maintain some bogus cultural belief is absolutely ridiculous and synonymous to punishment. Marriage is supposed to be based on love, friendship, companionship, togetherness and fun, not some pre-arranged culture preserving mediocre where participants have to live with each other, get used to each other and resort to fate. While this kinds of marriage seldom end in divorce due to the fear of the same cultural beliefs that started it in the first place, it leads to a life of unfulfillment , loss of the sense of individuality and lack of emotional expression and togetherness. This is also as bad as limiting your choice of a marriage partner due to cultural reasons, geographical location, language or race.

9. Pregnancy:

 Having a baby on the way is one of the wrong reasons to get married. This reason ranks high in African Countries. This is because procreation has been falsely thought to be sole reason for marriage in these countries , especially west Africa. And most women mess  with the thought of literally trapping a man into marrying them by getting pregnant. This reason is as dangerous as it sounds, don’t put yourself in such dangerous situations. While it is not advisable for children to be born out of wedlock due to some future psychological issues postulated by experts, putting the weight of marriage on an unborn fetus is not a good idea and is a recipe for a marriage that would not stand the test of time.

10. Parental issues: 

Marrying to satisfy your parents and relatives also counts as one of the wrong reasons to get married , so is marrying to hurt your parents. No parent in his  or her right mind should force a child to get married for their own selfish benefits and no right thinking child should also go ahead and exchange vows with the sole intention of pissing off the parent. Marriage would come with it’s own issues and challenges, secondary issues might prove too difficult to handle in a marriage. The “ us against the world” mentality more often than not ends badly and no marriage should be put under such unnecessary additional pressure.

11. Fortune Telling:

As ridiculous as this may sound to someone in America or United Kingdom, sooth saying , oracles and fortune telling, whatever you call it is a very common way of finding a marriage partner in Asia and Africa. The commonest way is by bringing pictures of random potential spouses to the fortune teller who then points out the "victim's' soulmate. Getting married based on the prediction of a fortune teller is one of the many wrong reasons to get married. 

12. Exercising a Right

Another one of the numerous wrong reasons to get married is to exercise a right or law that had just been passed. 30 years back ,some marriages taking place today in some parts of the world were totally illegal, now some new laws have been passed in certain countries and this is usually followed by mass weddings. There is much more to marriage than exercising a right, because soon, you might also be exercising the right to divorce.


13. Needing Assistance.

It is always said that "two heads are better than one" but the fact remains that if one head cannot function independently on it's own , it would be no good even when it has another one to work with. One of the many wrong reasons to get married is the need to get assistance, in running your daily life.You need help cleaning your house, fixing your food, running errands, changing the door knob and taking out the trash , then get a maid. Marriage is so much more than the need to get things done around the house. Marriage is meant for those who have found independence and then intend to co-depend because of the right reasons to get married .

14. Marrying for citizenship and other benefits.

Marrying someone to get a citizenship to a better country is also becoming one of the most common wrong reasons to get married.You would become a citizen quite alright but then in most cases it ends badly.

The above are all wrong reasons to get married because they usually end the marriage abruptly or rob the participants of the immense joy and happiness that marriage brings. Before signing on those dotted lines, it is important to note these reasons and either proceed  with or call off the wedding . Before you get married , you need to know about the choices in relationship. Read Choices in Relationships: An Introduction to Marriage and the Family
