Recently I went visiting a friend and while there, I found a stray chic who, am sure, was night candy for my friend.

What was striking about this chic was that, she seemed 'open-minded' as to discuss sex with us freely.

How she enjoyed it last night and all that buncha p**ytalk. But the kicker was when she was proud at betraying her friend who had trusted her to bring groceries to a sick boyfriend.

So my mind was like 'damnm, this chic's got balls!!'. Finally as I was leaving, my friend asked me to drop her off since we both seemed to head back to the same direction.

On our way, I was like 'so you decided to betray your friend by sleeping with her boyfriend?'.

She was like 'She wont know about it' and that even though what she did was silly, she wasn't regretting a thing.

Anyhoo, she said she has a boyfie and wasn't looking at marrying anytime soon. Reason? Either way, no one is ready to commit.

I remember telling you in these pages about the many wedding meetings in various nooks in Kampala.

I must say although I admire the courage of people who are getting married, in equal measure, I don't admire the aftermath of marriage.

Recently I was warned, mbu married people are the biggest percentage with a huge risk of HIV and Aids.

C'mon people, many don't wanna catch Aids! They want to be alive for sometime and so they aint getting married but will watch the drama from afar.

Marriage and the married should have been the people leading by example.

But with married cheating left and right, am not so sure the institution is still appealing.

We have seen and heard of many custodians of the books marrying and divorcing. Benny Hinn, Judith Babirye and many others with lewd liaisons with both men and women.

And you are right; many of these divorce cases end up not even in church but in courts of law.

Property is the code word. One maybe excused for thinking marriage as some sort of business.

Just the other day, I overheard a woman saying she is marrying the next day after courting for  3 weeks.

The explanation for this rational decision was that the groom is filthy rich and all his children are grown ups.

So in essence she was gonna be the sole next of kin. I just loved her dreams though.

Marriage in the heydays was an institution that every young adult was looking up to join and 'live happily thereafter'.

This seems to be a far cry for this generation. Some do believe devotedly that the only reason for sex and marriage is procreation and multiplication.  

So am just wondering; if we have already multiplied out of wedlock, and sex is accessible and affordable (in most cases offered free), is marriage still relevant?

Of course I know one the wannabe puritans who will be like 'Dude! There is more to marriage than four bare legs in bed. Granted, but lets break it down for us.

If I have a great company in my female and male friends, a machine does al the laundry, can cook and can keep my health tick, why should I be expected to marry just for sakes? It beats all the logical departments.

Am not against people getting married, all I am saying is that people should stop enticing people with some really silly-sounding nuances like 'ebyobufumbo byebityo…..mwana wange guma bugumi'!

What the Eff! And you expect a sober guy to venture in a project he knows is gonna fail?

As a matter of fact, I have met many people who think marriage is outdated and is being peddled around as a spin for 'social uprightness'.

Actually marriage seems to be an issue in elective politics. Seriously how can marriage be used as a yardstick for ability to manage?

The other day Olara Otunnu's ambitions to rule this country was brought to public scrutiny only for the simple fact that the brother hasn't decided to marry.

How come Ruhindi is still the MP for Nakawa? Why did Mahatma Gandhi so revered as a leader when he wasn't married?

Some people have a lot of 'wolokoso' for nothing.On the other hand, you as well as I know at least two single parents.

Most of them didn't deserve a walk out on; but hey, sh*t happened and there they are living happily 'there after'.

Am so sure what we all are just doing is getting married. Get babies.

Script ends there. Usually after babies, everything is just Eff'd Up! No one has moral authority to arrogate his/herself with issues to do with marriage.

I hear campusers have a visiting 'senga' who inducts them on how they should treat a man.

All could be well save for the fact that even the 'sengas' have failed relationships. Now if you cannot remove a log from your own eye, how in hell do you expect me to trust you with a chip in my eye?  People will marry when they want.
