The SIMPs just won't stop...

The root of all this is that there are more female voters than male voters in most countries so pandering to women is the quickest way to power. But one day they'll push too far...

Why are you claiming female?

People should stop this game they call marriage. Its becoming more trap day by day... You refused to ead food you go jail? Lol... My nrotyer or madam OP take it easy o
RandomAfrican1:

The Central Regional Coordinator of the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU) in Ghana, Superintendent George Appiah-Sakyi recently reiterated that by law, it is an offense for husbands to reject or refuse to eat their wives’ food because this constitutes a form of “emotional abuse”.

According to the police officer, such reculcitrants husbands could be charged for emotional abuse and which has the possibilities of getting them jailed for a maximum of two years or to a fine of 500 penalty units which is equivalent to GH¢6,000 or both when found guilty.

He said this at whiles addressing a sensitization workshop for Muslim Women. During his speech, he also admonished husbands not to beat or molest their wives in anyway even if they are being insulted. He rather suggests that they report the wives to the police station closest by and not take the law into their own hand since verbal assault is also an offense that can be addressed by law.

“If your husbands refuse to eat your food and make you unhappy and causes you emotional pain, you can also report them to the police. If your husband comes home late and causes you to be unhappy you can make a case at DOVVSU,” he said.

He then went on to add that women who refuse to give sex to their husbands should equally be reported because refusal of sex to a legal partner is also a violation which is grounded in law and amounts to emotional abuse which is punishable under the Domestic Violence Act 732 of 2007.

“If your wife wears jeans to sleep and causing you emotional abuse it’s an offence and you can report her to DOVVSU,” Superintendent Appiah-Sakyi stated.

women are angels who can never do wrong in the eyes of the SIMPs man. Whatever a woman does,no matter how despicable, if she's pretty she can't be punished. We are back in the garden of Eden following women's wishes. And we'll ruin society all over again.

Society is already ruined... Ruined by Bitch ass woman wrappers, who kowtow to every dumb feminine whim. Mtchewww!!!

why are you asking?

Because you are extremely worried that men are enacting laws that will liberate women from domestic shackles.

Let's face it: Women have suffered different degrees of abuses in their marital homes over the years. It's only fair that laws are enacted to protect them from marital abuses like wife battery. Why would a man be beating his wife every now and then? If you are tired of her, send her home.

In some places, women are always asked to drink the dirty water used to bathe their husbands' corpses just to prove that she didn't kill him. On the other hand, the same never applies to the guys.

A woman must shave off her hair to mourn her husband for a year and more. In contrast, men are free to start frolicking with other girls a few months after losing their wives.

I can go on and on.

Where's our humanity?

However, this Ghanaian law is simply senseless.

Despite that, we all must take steps to liberate women from some of those obnoxious laws that are enforced today.

Laws should be meant for people not animals.

Shouldn't be your headache. Most modern women don't care about marriage aswel. Rest with this your marriage obsession. Not everyone sees marriage as a career like you do.

So you can taste the pussy but you didn't taste the cooking skills?..

Truly.. Nothing gives you peace like being true and honest to God's word. Total Obedience to his loving word is the the ultimate answer to a happy, contented life.

Let me do give my life to Jesus.. And surrender totally to him. I don dey observe the world.. E no favour me, instead things are spiralling out of control. Things are just no longer going to be good.

Gone through the thread, very funny responses. grin

I must applaud the Ghanaians for making the law somewhat balanced (based on what they believe is the likely vices of each sex).

So as a husband, you have committed a jailable offence if you:
1. Beat your wife
2. Molest her
3. Refuse to eat her food
4. Make her 'emotionally unhappy'

As a wife, you have committed a jailable offence if you:
1. Verbally abuse/ insult your husband
2. Refuse him sex

I believe they would also be handle cases like when the wives refuse to cook, make their husbands unhappy or when the husbands refuse sex.

This world is seriously turningoniown.

I agree women have met with terrible abuse at the hands of men over the centuries via extreme versions of Patriarchy, as you have listed at the top of your comment.

The system is meant to protect the weak, but now it's like the system is used by the weak to control and oppress the strong. Women are now revenging via the government, the laws and the police. But it won't end well.just ask the women of South Africa how their long list of rights earned them men's hatred and how that hatred is manifesting in Africa's highest level of women abuse and femicide. Women own the system but men own the streets.
