Blog with Flair

On May 11, Jamaica's number one women's magazine, 'Flair', gave women their own personal space on the web. Blog with Flair went live and the response has been tremendous. Last week we tackled the topic of fighting 'ova' man. Here are some of the responses. Don't be left out; have your say on our blog and catch up with the 'Flair' team at gleanerblogs.com and Baby Watch.

It's simply unavoidable

Female rivalry over men is ancient and almost unavoidable, because all healthy females are naturally in competition (expressed or subtle) to attract a suitable mate.

The more natural family structure of polygamy helps to soften female rivalry, as females grow up recognising that they can 'share' the mate instead of fight for him.

The unnatural/imposed monogamy on societies by ignorant, Western criminal invaders has created much mating problems, including avoidable female fights, cheating, promiscuity, prostitution, pornography and so on.

Any female who thinks that a man is not worth it doesn't know much about what it means to be created female. Men would do well to avoid such females.

They are either in denial as to their natural need for a mate, or are high maintenance, or both. Not a good choice for a mate.

Even males may find it necessary to battle brazen 'wife thieves' if the well-being of an offspring is involved.

A degrading act

I don't believe in fighting any woman over a man. I think both women should get together and teach the man a fine lessen. Too often we degrade (women) ourselves and the men leave feeling cute. Women, we need to think of ourselves higher than fighting over a man; there is more than one fish in the sea.
