Wives get a raw deal in marriages

By SHIRLEY GENGA

KENYA: I believe dowry still has a central place in modern society. I believe in appreciating and celebrating those who raised a woman. However, I feel part of dowry should be paid directly to wives. I mean, wives work so hard in families. And with time, wives always end up being miserable because of marriage. From the time we women are young, we are fed with all this romantic ideas about marriage. The white ball gown dress is a great motivator to walk down any aisle, I mean who would not want to be the belle of the ball.
