There's this thing about our female gender that doesn't sit well with me and I quite honestly don't understand. Why is it that whenever a woman is achieving a lot you find a cluster that feels she doesn't deserve it. Instead of being happy for her they start tearing her down as if it's an injustice done to them. It starts in their mind, which is usually visible especially with the condescending looks and sneers and when a fellow hater sees it, they somehow link up and then become friends. So uncanny I must say! Maybe it's the common interest; you know the how misery just loves company vibe. Anyway, most times especially in work places, you'll find a certain group of humans including men (shocker!!) discussing a babe and popular statements will be: Who does she think she is? Si urembo ni make-up. Hiyo pesa ni ya wazazi/ chali yake e.t.c Plus if you have ever been a victim of such unnecessary criticism, you'll always notice them looking at you with Hyena ...
