Ironing Women. And I’m Not Talking Domestic Duties…

Posted by Michelle Moquin on July 27th, 2010

…Although some would beg to differ, and not in a “polite” manner.

Why is it that women always have to suffer because men can’t keep control of their little head overruling their big head? Why is it that whenever there is a sex issue that is “uncontrollable”, no one looks at how to control the men? All eyes seem to go to the women.

Hmm…Lets’ see…what can we do to the women so they aren’t as attractive…aren’t as tempting to the men, so the men won’t desire these women, or rape these women? Oh…Let’s cover the women’s faces. Done. Let’s cover the women’s bodies. Done.

In Africa it’s worse enough that women endure genital mutilation:

The age the procedure is carried out varies from just after birth to some time during the first pregnancy, but most cases occur between the ages of four and eight. Most times this procedure is done with out the care of medically trained people, due to poverty and lack of medical facilities. The use of anesthesia is rare. The girl is held down by older women to prevent the girl from moving around. The instruments used by the mid-wife will vary and could include any of the following items; broken glass, a tin lid, razor blades, knives, scissors or any other sharp object. These items usually are not sterilized before or after usage. Once the genital area for removal is gone, the child is stitched up and her legs are bound for up to 40 days.

But then when a young girl begins to develop breasts she has this to look forward to: “Breast Ironing”. Now in the African country of Cameroon, women’s breasts are now being ironed with hot stones, deforming them so badly, so that men won’t be attracted to them. Another great idea to help men control themselves.

This is BS. This is disastrous, and simply barbaric. And I’m so tired of reading stories about how women have to suffer because men can’t control themselves. Men are supposed to be strong – they seem to know how to escalate their testosterone and throw their muscles around enough when it comes to war, and controlling women – yet all I see in these examples is weakness…the little head overruling the big head. Women shouldn’t have to suffer because men can’t be responsible for their actions, for their uncontrollable weaknesses.

I have a solution. To me the answer to this problem is simple: Instead of disfiguring and deforming these women and maiming them for life, take a hot stone in your right hand, or whichever hand is stronger, and the moment “willy” decides to pop his little head up, smash a hot stone on top of it and make “willy” befriend his balls just a bit more intimately. I bet he’ll think twice before he pops his little head up again, don’t ya think?

Readers: Do I sound barbaric? I’ve never been a supporter of suffering, but I’ve always been an “eye for an eye” kind of girl. Sometimes the only answer to such cruelty is to give ‘em a dose of their own medicine, so they can see how it feels. Although I am open to suggestions. Comments? Thoughts? Any better ideas? Blog this BABE.

Doug: Thanks for the heads up – pun intended.

Peter: My pleasure. And I hear ya.

Lara: My pleasure. Happy to hear Roi was able to help you out, and you enjoyed your experience. I am sure my readers, especially those only tuned in for alien adventures, enjoyed reading the chronicles of Kathy and the girlz. I am happy to hear you are doing better now.:)

Wayne: Believe me I don’t always. But I am trying to. :)

Hi Mike: How’s it going? Nice to see you back here. Liberals are “control freaks”. Hmm…It seems the right are the ones wanting to control. Their losing it and they’re freaking out.

Anna: Congrats to Bill Hebert!  I HOPE he is all you expect him to be and more.

Murray: Good for you for taking your health in your own hands. No one is going to care more abut you than you.

Peace out…

    Saddening and horrific. Simply one more example of the uneducated, barbaric habits or rituals of man…

  2. Zen Lill Says:

    yikes…this is what occurs in under educated societies, ‘inadequate sex eductaion’ was stated several times, it always blows me away what a mother will do to ‘protect’ her daughters, the damage both phyiscallty as well as psychological is hard to fathom, when actually what the mothers are doing is protecting themselves in a very selfish manner, all that brutality so they won’t have to face the possibility that they might have another child to feed under their roof. As you can see, it worked well for this woman, she has several children, deformed breasts or not…it is barbaric. It is also deeply ingrained in this culture, as is genital mutilation, the wicked part is it is now women who perpetuate it. Men don’t even have to step in to do the controlling, and as long as the culture cannot overcome women having control over birth control issues it will stay that way. Again, yikes…and oh, the pain of this and genital mutilation makes my heart ache. – Zen Lill

  3. Zen Lill Says:

    Lara, that was an amazing story, so glad you had contact, I was thinking about how hard that would be losing 4 BFF’s in a year, I’ve had a loss of a few myself but not all at one time. And the details were fascinating. – ZL

  4. Cherika Says:

    Zen Lill

    I have to differ with you. I live here in West Africa. Michelle is absolutely correct when she says this barbaric practice is done by mothers to protect their children from RAPE. Men here are disgusting. The white man has destroyed our Continent from within.

    The men have been reduced to little more than animals. As a result they rape the female babies, children, and women at will.

    The law sides with the men, hence this is the only “weapon” a mother has to protect her child.

    It is not about “education,” it is about survival.

    Cherika

    Michelle

    I could not get in yesterday, I keep trying. Your article is so very real for me. Men here are beasts. They rape and pass laws to allow them to escape punishment. We are forced to hide or mutilate our bodies to account for their lusts.

    Marinda

    Michelle

    I weep for my sisters in Africa. This shows how far men will take the excuse that women’s bodies excite them beyond their control to rape and abuse us.

    Alaleb

  7. Ruth Says:

    Michelle

    You are 100% on the mark Michelle. Men use any excuse to get away with raping and controlling women.

    Zen Lill, I see your point when it comes to the mutilation of the female genitals of the female. It is an issue that can be argued both ways. But even here I have to side with Michelle’s logic.

    It is the men’s religion, that has indoctrinated the mothers into believing that this is God’s wish because it prevents women from straying. Most women in Africa know that this is a lie.

    But the courts often ask if the woman was circumcised during the trial when the perpetrator claims that he was enticed by the actions of the female. So again this is another defensive act one of the only ones a mother has to protect her daughter’s life and reputation.

    Often men will not marry a women if they have not been circumcised. This poses another problem for the mother who will then have to feed another mouth for life. It is very difficult for women to find employment in Africa.

    Life in Africa for women can not be judged by Western standards. It is as one poster said “barbaric” at best and hell on earth the rest of the way.

    I believe as the woman stated this is just the state the eugenic practitioners want the continent of Africa to be in. They have taken over the exploration of the mineral and water rights and they control all the jobs.

    The men are reduced to cowering before white men and asians for a meager job. The arabs indoctrinate them with their sick cult that demeans and enslaves women and what is left is a male only a few levels from a wild beast.

    He lives by the natural instincts of an animal. If he sees an unprotected woman, be she baby, child, teenager or adult, young or old, he will rape her. Often the sex of the child is not considered; the hidden secret is that young boys rather make it into adult without being raped.

    This continues the cycle of abuse another generation. The boys grow up into men and act out their anger. They can not tell in court they have been raped. Again look at what white men have done. American US Senators use our tax payers money to go to Africa and sell their anti-gay philosophy.

    They offer financial assistance if the leaders will pass draconian law against homosexuality. These are laws they cannot get passed or have the balls to endorse in their own country. Laws which advocate the death penalty for practicing homosexuality.

    Hence young boys who are raped are afraid if they testify they will be accused of being homosexuals and be imprisoned or executed.

    The white man is the root of all of Africa’s problem. The sooner that lot is eradicated the better in my humble opinion. There are many good white men. We have the ability to differentiate. So we need not hesitate to kill at will those that do not fit in that category.

    The Chinese are rapidly displacing the white man in certain parts of Africa. They bring the same prejudices and the same cruel acts. The evil among them should be exercised in the same manner.

    As for the arabs or any man who practices that cult called islam or catholicism, they should be shot on sight in my opinion.

  8. Ezzati Says:

    The world I call Africa is sick. It has been infected with the greed, racism, and violence that white men practice where ever they exist. When they can not exterminate or thin out the indigenous population so as to be able to control the land they wish to occupy, they use other evil methods to disrupt and control the population.

    Witness how the continent of Australia was taken over entirely by the white man. He was not content to allow the aborigine to live freely even in the tinniest part of the enormous continent of Australia. He preferred to resort to extermination.

    The victors control history. So no one mentions the 31 million aborigines that were exterminated by white men in Australia. Imagine the enormity of killing that many people and getting away with it?

    Not a singly mention of it in any history book. Same in America at least 12 million human beings exterminated. Murdered by putting a bounty on their scalps. Not only condoning the scalping of men, women and children, but rewarding the perpetrators for the act.

    These are the same white men who want their OTWs to whine in unison when a few thousand of their kind were killed in 9/11. They have made the act almost a holy shrine. A collective anger is encouraged towards any who would try to put the deed into perspective.

    Whites can and have murdered blacks in much larger numbers numerous times in history. And they look the other way today when members of their race advocate the same acts today

    Yet, those blacks, and the other OTWs are declared “unamerican” if they wish to put into perspective the acts of a few religion crazed men. They want to excite you into hating a whole race because they fear their race is endangered by that race’s refusal to allow them to do to them what they do to their own OTWs whenever they can use their laws to get away with it.

    Most whites in America still believe that it is “their” country. Hence the Right’s Clarion call “We will take our country back.” Every news pundit in your country knows what that means. But has any but your Rachael Or Keith addressed it?

    No, whites are still practicing their brand of racism in the USA. And attempting to continue their concept of euthanasia, i.e. eugenics across the rest of the world occupied by OTWs.

    That includes Israel. Whites detest the Jew. They use them as pawns to get them and the rest of the OTWs to remain in a constant state of war, and hatred. Only the whites benefit from that hatred.

    They profit from the weapons they export to both sides. And they get to have their victims pay to exterminate themselves

    All Africa is not dumb. We are wise to the evil of the American white man. We are just not able presently to do anything about it. so when we see the 9/11 tapes, we stand up and cheer. Not for the deaths of those involved, but for the action that says to the evil white man.

    YOUR DAY IS COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ezzati

  9. Wayne Says:

    It is horrible what women have had to do endure over the course of time due to the ignorance and brutality of man. This should not be tolerated but is just as so many other behaviors that fall into the same category of abuse of human beings
