Campus boys; husband materials

There is this awesome writer I just discovered recently. She goes by the name Ivy Aseka (check out her work on The Standard newspaper), I’m not sure it is her real name or nom de plume.

In the article, she went ahead and slammed hard on the campus girl, implying that they are too busy indulging in hedonism, debauchery, fornication, adultery and laziness to actually learn anything about being proper wives that our mothers are.

I might go ahead and say she is right, or she is hateful, or disloyal to her gender or her generalization of the campus girls is preposterous, or dispute everything but hell, what do I know about being a wife!
