OPEN FOR ALL

We had a heated argument about one of the greatest topics ever, sex. Surprise! You see, a man says that the only reason he does not have as much sex with as many women as he can is because he still values his life, and not because of the many diseases that exist in life but because mosadi o ka toga a mo karapa!

My friend Tshepo said although he loved his dear wife and children more than life itself, he will risk losing it all by having sex elsewhere. The reasons are very simple and straight. Tshepo says he wants to know if he is still hot and he just views sex as nothing but a non emotive physical act that means absolutely nothing to him, it is just an act! Heee, monna yo o bata dikgobalo. So, I then asked him if he would go ahead and do it regularly with other women if his wife allowed him to do so. He quickly answered with a big yes.

Tshepo’s theory is that if his wife allowed them to have an open relationship, everyone would live a happier life because the wife would know and be expecting her husband to be sleeping with someone else and so would rarely worry about. You see, according to Tshepo, women worry because they are wondering what their men are up to, so when she knows what is going on, she will go on with her life and Tshepo will love her even more because now he will not be worried about when next his wife will do the deed with him, because the longer you are married the fewer and further between does it occur.

Still according to Tshepo, a man will cheat no matter how much he loves his wife for as long as he is not getting his desired amount of the ‘thing’ from her. He will just get a ‘fix’ from another woman, then go home and cook for the kids, clean the house and lovingly run a nice hot bath for his dear wife before she comes in home tired from a long hard day. How very ideal! But Tshepo says it is all possible and infact a lot of men are living this highly desirable lifestyle. I give up!

So, it seems then that the way to go is for open relationships or is it really? Would a woman really allow herself to share her man with other women and live a longer happier life thereafter? I am too jealous for that. The man then will have to remove anything from the house that could be implicated in a murder. Call me insecure, control bitch, I do not care, I do not share! So, I asked Tshepo if he would allow his wife to also get her ‘fix’ from elsewhere before she gets home and would he also be able to not worry about her actions and live happily ever after in the agreement? Tshepo utterly refused. O ne a gana nyaa ya banyana. I therefore rest my case. Keep it closed, forget that open nonsense!
