WHEN IT COMES TO SEX, we men are the ones who sometimes get away with murder. And I am not talking about the fact that we are not the ones who have to fake orgasm. I am referring to the double standards that make the man who "kill a different catty every night" into more than a hero and the woman who sleeps with two men into less than a zero. Is that really fair?
LIP SERVICE
Look how everybody got to watch the two infamous recordings of a schoolgirl doing lip service to a schoolboy, so the whole world could condemn them; but in each case, we never get to see what the young male in the scene did to his partner before or after her performance. So what? Both boys are decent, morally upstanding young gentlemen who just happened to have had one sexual encounter with a freaky girl, and found that the experience was so appalling, it had to be recorded, right? Nonsense! Di bwoy dem a big freak to. And I don't think they are alone.
ENCOURAGED BY SOCIETY
It's just that society allows (maybe even encourages) men to brag on the corners to their friends or email images to the world of the freaky things women do, but doesn't permit them to brag about their own outlandish activities.
And some men love to brag. That is a given. The not-too-bright boy who during school days is always bragging about who can beat up the most people or play the best football or run the fastest or check the most girls, usually grows into the ignorant man who is always bragging about who drives the biggest car, smoke the strongest weed, buss the biggest gun or have the most 'baby mother'. Some men just love to boast and brag about any and everything. But guess what? Everyone usually knows when the boast is without foundation because the boaster is often called upon to publicly prove that what he is bragging about is true; and invariably he fails.
MASSIVE EGO
It's a different thing though, when men boast and big up their own sexual prowess. And Jamaican men love to do that. Especially the ones who use microphones. When a man starts bragging about being the wickedest 'wukkaman' and starts regaling the world with lyrics about the agony and ecstasy he has unleashed on women with his massive member, other men have to just take his word for it. We never know if is true or lie and we really don't care. Well, maybe I might care just a teenie - 'beenie' bit, if I found out that the braggart is sleeping with my ex.
CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE
That is why a woman caught in the crossfire between two men with whom she has had intimate relations, is in a great position. Yeah man, she has special knowledge. She knows for sure whether either of the men matches his public speech with his private performance. The ex and the next can shout out all they want and try to make each other look small, but only the woman in the middle knows for sure who the bigger man is.
Whether she is an angel or the devil incarnate, it is the woman in the middle who knows beyond the shadow of a doubt who is really and truly 'the one' and who 'are the two'.
