Greedy men!

JANICE JOHNSON, all woman writer 

Don’t you ever wonder what makes men tick? What makes them – well, them? It is puzzling whenever women try to figure them out and I believe that we will never truly know them inside and out. They often complain how wicked women can be, but they never stop to evaluate their own actions.

It is always the woman who is blamed and they will always regurgitate, ‘a woman cannot do what a man does and still be a lady’. But what they fail to admit is that there are many who practise ‘whorish’ behaviours out there, and I don’t mean the females.

Men are just plain greedy. They always want more. And sex is the cause of this weakness. Thus, the ‘gal inna bundle’ mentality. And being referred to as a ‘galis’ is an honour.

Let’s face it, married or not, men cheat, and they do it wickedly too. Now, I am not disputing that women don’t do it too. Some master the act, but men behave as if it is innate and ordained by God. You see, men can’t get enough of that three letter word aforementioned. They, at times, are like light switches. Easily turned on. And many men are gonna have a problem with this, but if one should evaluate the said statement, I would be proved right. We all know that men have two heads (pun intended), thus the second brain, which just happens to be below the waist. This brain seems to control 99.9 per cent of their activities. They claim that it is not every woman for which they ‘stand at attention’, but give them the right situation, perfect lighting where they don’t have to focus on the woman’s face if this happens to be the unappealing part of her body, and they will go for it.

Others claim they have certain things that appeal to them. Things they would like women to believe go for all ladies. Whether it be our butts, breasts, personality or even complexion, but that’s another article altogether. Though I admit it may be harder for them to respond, the fact is, sooner or later the second brain is bound to win.

But here’s one of the most disgusting things about men’s behaviour. They feel that once they have already established in their heads that they are hot, every woman should recognise this, and so resisting their advances makes us just plain foolish. There are also those who did not glance our way when ‘wi never deh pan nutten’ but as soon as God smiled on us and granted us a little curve here and there, they start flocking us.

Many ladies can attest to this. Remember the days you were battling hard with those extra pounds or you were as skinny as a toothpick? And the day finally comes when you are now slim and trim with the movie star body or you have gained weight here and there, giving you the extra ‘oomph’ you always wanted?

Suddenly, all eyes turn, and you start getting requests from everywhere. Pretty soon you are tired to have to repeat ‘no’ all the time or you have run out of space to store all the applications.

Then there are those men who have their ‘catty’ and/or wife, but see you as the ultimate sex magnet to ‘let off a ting’. Men, please! Get over yourselves! Here’s a lesson. Unless the woman is shallow and thinks nothing of herself, then your advances at that point would be futile.

Why would we want you if you never as much as looked in our direction before? This is why loyalty is key. The same little man who picked us up when we had the barrel belly or the skinny legs, the same little fellow who loved us nonetheless, is the one we are going to stick with.

No need to wonder why some men find themselves involved with a ‘shim’. They get so jumpy whenever they see a young lady they don’t stop to really investigate the person’s gender.

They think with the lower head, which is not very good at cohesive thought. End result? Everything that wears a skirt is a woman. No, this does not only happen abroad. Drag queens are here as well, and the competition with the real females is pretty high.

But men, you need to address your way of thinking, since it is the greed for that three letter word that often leads you to get caught with your pants down (literally). And so, my words of advice come to you from our most ex-rated female Dancehall artiste, Lady Saw herself.

‘Nuh badda come yah wid yu gali, gali self’, and not every female ‘yu si … (yu must want) to feel, touch or flirt’. So next time you think of behaving all greedy, consider that the woman may genuinely not be interested and no amount of persuasion or conviction that you ‘are the one’ is going to change her mind.
