Hello ,"These are just girls, I need a male child......"

This is a common request from from some African men with the traditional mentality; forcing their wives to produce what they don't have.

When will this men realize that it takes the X and Y chromosomes to have a male child?

And men are the carrier of the Y chromosome while women only have the XX chromosomes.

If you like hang your bumbum unto a rolling fan that is attached to the ceiling as a woman, if the man didn't ejaculate the Y chromosome, it is going to be a beautiful princess.

Come to think of it, what makes a male child more important than a female child?

I had to deal with some this discrimination while growing up. I am the first of three girls with a father who desperately wanted a male child.

I grew up doing things a male child ought to do just to prove to my father that I wasn't just a girl child but a very useful and relevant human.

I learned to service the generator, change the plugs, fix the bulbs, change the switch from PHCN to generator, wash the car, and even carry heavy loads just so my father won't feel the pang of not having a male child.

The girl child is as important as the male child. She has no control over her birth but you can help her become a much better person by giving her the necessary support that will ensures she reaches her peak in life.

A lot of women can relate to this ; we should not make some of the mistakes some of our fathers made because it has its psychological effect on the girl child.

Girl, you are strong.

You are loved.

You don't need any body approval to be the best of you.

Just keep pushing.

If nobody believes in you and your dreams, I do and I am rooting for you.
