Fellow men have been on a roll, complaining how city girls are spoilt and how they would never want to marry them. City girls are not wifey material, they say. Hmmm….. if you want a good wife, take one from the village, they say. It’s true that town girls are too sly and too difficult to deal with but come on. Is the rural girl solution viable? No. I;m not trying to be discriminatory against village girls but they aren’t as good as most men think. Endless woes will accompany you when you marry a one and here are some of them.
She will be the devil on heels once she ‘chanukas’
The Swahili said it, “Mjinga akierevuka, mwerevu yu mashakani”. A village girl might appear all naïve and humble but once her principles get infiltrated by the unholy doctrines of town chics, she’ll become worse than them. She’ll be drinking like an old boring Scottish boozehound and partying like a fresher. She will literally grow ‘pembes’ and at last you’ll have to send her back to her parents.
All your secrets will be known (moshene)
Village girls love moshene. In rural areas, you can’t do anything without the whole community knowing about it. It’s tough. The village girl will broadcasting all your internal affairs like she’s TBC Idhaa Ya Taifa. All the mboches in the estate will know how many inches your cock is and how long you last. You surely don’t want that don’t you?
You’ll have to make most of the decisions on your own
A village girl isn’t familiar with the world of urban hustles. She doesn’t know about mortgages, shares, design, elegance or professionalism. As a result, you’ll have to make most decisions on your own and trust me, you’ll end up making the wrong ones most of the time. In a successful marriage, both parties should be involved in decision making and you’ll be deprived of that.
You’ll have trouble showing her off
Let’s be real. Most men love showing off their women. When you marry a girl from ocha it’ll be hard for you to do that. A village girl not only has poor fashion sense but also poor articulation. If you are a respectable man who’s high up in the social ladder, you’ll be forced to refrain from showing off your wife who can’t even speak fluent English. It’ll be hard to parade her in dinners and gals with her lesos and long skirts at the same time your friends are parading their wazungu wives or classy fiancés.
