We've got male


 How many times have we heard a man saying?
1.       The spice has gone from my relationship
2.       My girl don’t turn me on anymore
3.       If I had you, I’d do things to you that you cannot imagine
4.       Your man nuh have no sense if him a let you out of the house alone and not going places with you
5.       Babes, just give me one chance to prove to you what good loving is
Etc, etc, etc… the list goes on

One of my favourite genres of music is dancehall.  I just love how the lyrics are merged to form a song that’s not only sexy, but implies so much to let you turn up the heat in the bedroom.

My issue, though, is that these songs are ALL telling ‘women’ what to do, what positions to let you ‘hol the man’ and also how they love the skin out and dash out.  In the same breath that these songs give you motivation, I have to ask ‘what about the men?’

Are we still living in the days when women are the ones who are to please their men? While the women’s needs are placed on the backburner?

We have some ‘in-dependent’ women who will be at the front of the line that says “Mi nah go outta my way fi please no man” and they will have the attitude etched across their faces, but within a few hours of such blatant lie will find themselves in compromising positions trying to ‘please their man’ (whether theirs or borrowed)

With Cupid’s retreating butt being a speck on the horizon and a few days have passed since that fatal day where persons went about making or breaking someone’s heart, we saw a lot of storefronts advertising their wares showcasing the sexiest of lingerie for women. I know the female form is one of the best things even before sliced bread.  Especially when a woman has either good genes or has taken the time to look after her body, when that lingerie goes on her form it is a really appreciated sight.

However, I dare say that we women would love to have the men do something different for us.  Bring something new to the table to entice us, motivate us so we will want to do things for you.  Women do get bored with their partners and would like some spice in the relationship also.

There will be men who jump up to say that they are the ‘bedroom master’ or some ridiculous cocky term that they invented.  Sometimes it does come as a shocker when you hear the tales from the lips of their partners.  Unfortunately, though, we have seen where women are in relationships for years and end up not voicing their opinions or desires for the bedroom.  Why is this a touchy conversation piece? When at the end of it you will either get what you want or your partner will be oversensitive and end the relationship?

So, saying all that, it brings me back to my main topic… how comes when anything pertaining to the bedroom is being discussed, singed about or advertised, it all points to the woman?

It feels like we were brainwashed by society to continuously point finger at the female when it comes onto relationship failure due to sexual problems.  Over the past few years, though, we see more and more women speaking out about their failed relationships and we also see men speaking up about their ‘problems-in-bed’.  With this burning topic, doctors have come up with quick-fixes that sometimes come in the form of little blue tablets; this, however, does not solve the bedroom approach problem. 

More and more events are being held to focus on women satisfaction.  There you’ll find well oiled muscles of steel gyrating to the pulsing music of R. Kelly, Genuwine, Keith Sweat, and many other artistes who focus on singing about the pleasure of the female body. These promoters realize the missing element in a lot of relationships and have maximized on this to create an atmosphere where the Pineal Gland in the brain is constantly stimulated and the woman end up leaving the venue in an almost orgasmic state.  My confusion leans towards the fact that we, women have to go to these places to feast our eyes while the men in our lives are not meeting this need but expect go-go like qualities behind closed doors.  Men need to step up their game; don’t just focus on what you need from the relationship but think about creative ways that you can give.

I am yours faithfully,
