Doesn’t mean I want to be your second wife. Or your Facebook friend.
Now that I’m on NTV, scores of random Kenyan men are able to look me up on Facebook. And they do. Like ten per day. They send me messages like “Can I take you out for a drink the next time I’m in Nairobi?” or “have come from a very hard task ,am just a hustler and am willing change as from next have a family of ma own cythia (sic) since i saw u ,on TV i just cant forget ya pretty face”
Of course the marriage proposals/sexual insinuations are still going strong at work and in the streets. For some reason it seems the older and fatter the man, the better a chance he thinks he has with me. I usually just reply “Does this look like second wife material?” and they usually don’t know how to reply ;o)

just came across this article and felt the need 2 comment.
Im a kenyan myself but I live elsewhere. I’v just seen a clip of you on NTV’s youtube channel and thought, what the hell…she looks cute, I might as well google her. (and thats how i got here)
whats up with the “second wife” thingy. Reading this piece one would think that collecting wives is all kenyan men are good for. whatsup with that??? I’ve read most of your posts on here, and you’re just endlessly having a go at “kenyan men”.
Being one, I feel the need to sorta defend kenyan mens “reputation” here.
I mean, i’m kenyan, i’m single, and yeah….i find you partially attractive; thats the reason I google’d you in the first place.
Im not old or fat….and I highly doubt most guys hittin on you are.
And guess what…. not only will I never get married period, but the first thing I thought when I saw you wasn’t “I WOULD LIKE TO ADD HER TO MY CATALOGUE OF WIVES”. I mean, I thot you looked cute, I also find Keira Knightley attractive. But i dont want to marry her, you, you and her both, or anyone else for that matter!
My point is that, as a kenyan man, I find your subliminal insinuation that we “collect wives” highly disturbing. I mean c’mmon cynthia, there’s people who will read your blog who have never been to kenya. they’ll be reading this thinking all kenyan men have horrendous behavioural traits. Dont paint us all with the same brush. The least you can do is first humiliate the guys shamelessly hitting on you, and then give props to the other 95% of decent kenyan guys out there. I mean….jeeeez!
