I'm a woman with BALLS!

I love to think of myself as a woman with balls.  Pardon me but I use this figuratively and I'll tell you why. You see my reference to the male organ is not to objectify men or an attempt to be distasteful but to talk of their rather unique brain (another organ).To you ladies out there, do you sometimes ask, ‘why am I a woman?’ This is not my take on the never-ending superiority battle of the sexes or about sexual orientation. For me, this is part of the journey to self-discovery.

Does anyone have an answer to such questions? Who are you? Why are you a man or woman? Et cetera. Please give me a call!As a teenager, I really didn’t like the male species. What I believed then was that every boy’s objective was to get in a girl’s pants and maybe brag about it later to colleagues often with a lot of embellishments. What schmucks! Ah well! Fast forward, now most of these fears seems to have changed.I must say, I am fascinated by a man’s brain. It’s sexy! Don’t get me wrong there is nothing wrong with that of a woman’s. Of course the brain is believed by many to be a miraculous organ and I agree. My attraction has got to do with how it works and I have been investing in learning all I can about the male brain.This is my unscientific analysis about the opposite sex. Men are goal oriented, strategic, tactical, accurate, restrained and patient (there’s more). Oh yes they are perfect hunters, and they do catch game (lol). It takes a lot for the hunter to observe game from afar, narrow down, devise a plan to take it down, lie in wait for that impeccable attack and when the time is right go in for the kill. I have more synonyms for my hunter friends - chess players, military strategist, tactician, we could go on and on.

I’ve been yapping about men and their sexy brains but I love being a woman. Women are great managers/decision makers, care givers, problem solvers, and creatures of beauty. Enough said.I am a woman. I don’t know why, God does. What kind of man would I have been? I don’t know and couldn’t be bothered but sometimes I like to pick up certain traits of men to help me fight my battles in life’s journey.

Can I have it all? You tell me.I am a woman, and no ordinary one! I am a woman with BALLS.

Keep the fire burning!Xoxo-

THE POLITICS OF AFRICAN HAIR: Why is African Hair Unpopular?

I finally shared the full story behind my hair on my Tv show Inside Pages on Metro Tv. Today I’m going to give MY TAKE on the Achimota school-Rastafarianism-dreadlocks saga and it will be about MY HAIR EXPERIENCE- as you know and can see I have kept my hair in its natural state for years and there’s a story behind it. First, I’ll talk about My Big Chop and then 2 major experiences after the chop. • The big chop In my second year at the University of Ghana, in 2008 I made a practical decision. I stopped applying perming cream to my hair to straighten and remove the texture. I did this to allow for new growth in anticipation of a big chop. This was contradictory to the wild joy I embraced soon after completing SSS, now SHS. Perming my hair was the long-awaited moment of freedom from the many years of compulsory cutting of hair per the rules of mainstream education. But few years down the line, it was no longer freedom and joy because of the cuts and burns from the perming cream. My hair ...

Let’s gives our children the right start! Let’s Be Fair Ghana!

Elizabeth lifts her hand swiftly as soon as her teacher asks for a volunteer to read out a passage to the class. Her teacher calls on her and she marches boldly to the board, reads loudly and clearly and is rewarded with a round of applause. I was proud of her. I got to meet Elizabeth when I had the opportunity to visit Sandema in the Upper East Region during a field visit with UNICEF. Elizabeth is a primary 3 pupils of Alama Basic School. Elizabeth and her classmates impressed me. It was very evident that they understood the passage and each of them took turns going to the board. This scene alone made it all worth it. It may be hard to believe, but 7 children in primary 3 out of every 10 in Ghana are unable to read and write even though they should be able to. This begs the question, are we being fair to our children? If this number of children at that age cannot read or write how do we prepare them to learn others skills?    continued to wat...
