Whats up with men and more than one pair of legs?

I have guy friends that throw comments like "One girl is never enough to screw! You need variety". Variety my left ankle! A vagina is vagina! Men act like they were born to screw.

My mum once said to me "All men cheat", and she was sincerely telling me this. Men freaking do what??? She sat me down and this is how the convo went:

Mum: Mwanangu (my child), I know you are in love and naive. This guy is a good guy and I can see kuti there might be a future.


Me: (smiling) I am glad you like him mum, he will be very happy to hear that. (I ignored "naive")


Mum: Yah mukwasha (son-in-law) and you have scored yourself a good guy.


Me: Mhamha stop with all the flattering (huge grin on my face)


Mhamha: Asi why we are sitting here is coz I want to tell you the reality of life (me intently listening). You know I was once married and your father is the only one I loved but all men are the same.


Me: (getting defensive) No, "Nhingirikini" is different!


Mhamha: Chimbonyara undinzwe (keep quiet and listen)


Me: (rolling eyes and mumbling)


Mhamha: Murume murume (a man is a man) whether you wanna believe me or not. You are gonna get married and I want you to know that if he cheats on you its normal. Typical men behaviour (me shocked look) and all men are bound to do it no less than 5 or 8 times during the course of their marriage (jaw dropped)... if you are lucky (jaw broken!). You father had 6 other children out of this marriage when we were still to together and the other one is your age and you know it.

Me: "nhingirikini" is not like my father.


Mhamha: Is he a man?


Me: I don't know, is he one? (sarcastically)


Mhamha: Mwanangu, you can be cheeky all you want but one day uchauya uchichema misodzi yeropa (you will come crying tears of blood) and I will tell you the words my sister once told me before i got married. And i acted the exact way you doing now.


Me: Which are? (frowning)


Mhamha: "I told you so"


Me: Mhamha I don't wanna talk about this, I wont stay for crap like that like ya'll did (really fuming) I will make him go stay with his whore! (then I walk out)


You know it got me thinking. What kind of a society says the cheating of men is acceptable coz they are "men". Maybe I am mad or something but I will NOTT sit, smile and look while my dignity is being torn apart by a cheating man. And stay at home trying to make an unworking marriage work! I will NOTTTTT!!


BF better not even consider it, but he wouldn't, I know him too well and been with him long enough, given him enough reason to cheat but he has never. I guess what you don't know wont kill you. I better not find out if he does...but he wouldn't

Freakin hell it ain't normal!!!!!
