Our fathers were the last lucky men that ever enjoyed their kingdoms as men. Their women stayed at home and moved with them from one job location to another each time they moved stations. Because they had no financial freedom, they stayed loyal to their husbands even if the relationships were abusive or unsatisfying in one way or the other. Their women revered them and took pride in supporting their progress and achievements.
They would refer to them by the names of their professions. Wives would be heard dropping statements like 'I will inform Daktari or I will pay back your money as soon as Mwalimu receives his salary'. Marriages were stable and women happily focused on childbearing which worked to pin them down to nurturing the young ones usually until they were past their serviceable years.
