EVERY WOMAN A SEX WORKER? 6 Months, 1 Week ago  
Where was this woman born, who is she, what religion, tribe, her beliefs etc..? What... is she sane?





Every woman is a sex worker

SEX TRADE: Nabusayi Wamboka



We’ve been down this road before but it’s a road we shall travel constantly until we get to a more understanding and equal environment. A group of people branding others evil and their acts illegal because they are having sex differently is quickly becoming a broken record.



Take the recent revived debate of the halted conference of sex workers that was due in Entebbe. Whether it was held or not is not really important. What is important is the debate that followed and the subsequent bad mouthing the so-called moralists including the Honourable Minister of Ethics Nsaba Buturo and Dr Martin Sempa directed towards what society has come to describe as sex workers or prostitutes.



I hate the idea of criminalising sex work and the constant humiliation of fellow women go through each time Kampala City Council cracks down on them and charges them with being idle and disorderly. As long as it is an intimate act, both men and women are involved in the sex act, but most moralists and law enforcers choose to pick on the women because they are the weakest victims– the men, well, they disappear in thin air.



Moralists especially men must not institutionalise the control of women’s bodies and actions. Our laws have legitimised male sex workers by including polygamy in our laws, effectively allowing men to have sex with as many women as they want but never the other way round. What makes people think it is dirty for women to have sex with as many men as they want?



Do we still have to ask why the women are the most highly infected with HIV/Aids, including married women and yet it is the men doing all the sex thing? There is something about the male ego that gets bruised each time a woman makes a bold move about her sexuality. A woman who negotiates sex in cash and kind is so powerful and intimidating and a man will do anything to bring her down.



At the same time, such men crave sexually powerful women who are not afraid to sell sex, that they will keep going back for more effectively keeping sex work on the rise. White collar sex work is actually far more profitable and abound everywhere. And it doesn’t matter what you call these women, or how much you want to outlaw them. They will never go away as long as men and women still exist.



The important thing to do is legalise the trade and collect taxes through licences, establish health or safe centres that constantly provide safe sex information and counselling services to the public. While the women have constantly been boxed into submission through constant humiliation, including the women’s movement that was totally silent when the issue of the aborted conference came up, there is no woman who is safe from this practice.



Nobody wants to associate with the so-called prostitutes or sex workers but generally every woman is a sex worker depending on the vows on the table, the frequency and the place. Others are just busy sex workers (who try to coin what they think is a respectable title of mistress) while others are busy baby makers mainly referred to as wife or wives.



Wives are mainly those who are proud to have marriage rings on their fingers, have lived long enough with the man to be described as a wife and have children. It is impossible for these ones to negotiate sex because they will be thrown out of their marital homes. My point is that sex work is a two-way street and must never be associated with just women.



The writer is women rights activist

Every woman since when? Does this go back to the beginning fo the world to-date? Does this then include all the saints who were women in their life on earth too? Does it include the present day nuns closed up in convents as well as female priests too?



I would understand if this woman is basing her judgement on her mother and all her female relatives and herself. But she has to understand this is wrong, and I worry about the mental health of the editor of the newspaper that publishes such trash.

Re:EVERY WOMAN A SEX WORKER? 6 Months ago  
In my opinion many articles in Monitor and Bukedde are meant to target a particular group. The purpose is to generate readership, which, it occurs to me, is declining. The paper must now find some topics which interest a particular group to tap their attention. Bukedde is doing the same (especial the 'Senga' column). I believe the two papers belong to the same owner.



A woman was arrasted for prostitution and taken to the master. You can read the account in John 8:1-5. When Jesus was rendering his verdict, it was directed to this particular woman only and not all or any other women. Therefore not all women are sex workers.



It is also interesting to note that no man was accused along with Mary Magdalene of prostitution. Even if they said that "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery..." (John 8:4). Funny isn't it? If cought in the act, then, where is the man? Was she doing it alone? Why is there no man accused with her?



Jesus did not say; "Go your way. Afterall all women are sexual workers". He said; "Go now and leave your life of sin." Let's fully understand this. Sex sin is sin indeed, depending on the circumstances under which you do it. If you sin, you will suffer the consequences. Sin must not be defended.



But not all sex relations are sin. Sex is a gift from God to humans.

Omusajja yansiiga endwadde y’abazira



Babirye.



OMULIMU gw’okutunda akaboozi ngufuniddemu ebizibu. Eno gye nnafunira omusajja eyansiiga enziku eyambunya amalwaliro nga nnoonya eddagala, okutuusa bwe nnagenda e Mulago ne banzijanjaba ne mpona.



Nze Susan Babirye 20, mbeera Kireka kyokka nzaalibwa Muwayo e Busia. Mu 2002 nnali mpeza emyaka 14, ne nfuna obutakkaanya ne taata, bwentyo ne nsalawo mmuviire.



Najja e Kireka ewa mukulu wange ne ntandika obulamu bw’ekibuga, obutaali bwangu n’akatono.



Baaba yandekanga waka ekiro n’agenda akola, wabula oluvannyuma nnakizuula nga bwe yali yeetunda ku nguudo z’omu Kampala.



Lumu yantuuza n’ambuulira ekituufu ku ngeri gye yali afunamu ssente ezitubeezaawo era n’ang’amba nti nange nteekwa okuyingira omulimu guno kubanga nnali mbuliddwa eky’okukola ekirala, ate nga ssente tuzeetaaga.



Natandika okugendanga naye ku nguudo ekiro ne twetunda. Yasooka kuntendeka mu bukodyo bw’okusanyusaamu omusajja okusobola okumuggyamu ensimbi eziwera.



Okuva olwo ebintu bibadde bitambula kubanga abasajja mbafuna era bansasula bulungi. Waliwo lwe bukya n’ofuna omugagga n’omulamulira 50,000/- okusula naye era n’azikuwa sso nga waliwo n’ayinza okukuwa 20,000/-omale naye akaseera katono (sooti). Olunaku olutambudde obulungi, nsobola okufuna abasajja nga basatu.



Ate waliwo oluusi abantwala mu kimansulo. Bano bansasula 7500/- olunaku, ate eno ofunayo omusajja akugula oluvannyuma lw’okumuteeka mu ‘muudu’.



Wabula wadde ssente nzifuna naye nfuniddemu ebizibu bingi. Omusajja ayinza okukugula ne mukkiriziganya okukozesa kondomu, kyokka olutuuka mu buliri n’agaana okwambala. Wano we nnafunira n’eyansiiga enziku eyammalako ensimbi nga nnejjanjaba.



Okuva olwo omusajja ne bwampa akakadde akalamba nneegatte naye nga tayambadde kondomu sikkiriza, waakiri ssente zinfa.



Wabula nninayo omuntu wange gwe nneegatta naye nga tetwambadde kubanga twekebeza omusaayi. Ekirungi nti amanyi omulimu gwe nkola era tagulinaamu buzibu.



Ssente ze nfunye nsobisse okugulamu poloti mu kyalo ne nzimbamu n’akayumba kange, era kati nneebeezaawo.





TELI KITASOBOKA,NAKAYUMBA AZIMBYE...NAYE LWAKI OBULWADDE OBWO BABUYITA BABWAZZIRA??
