The Truth About: Graduates, Side-chicks and Big Behinds

Are you a young educated man in your mid twenties, with ambitions of one day having a car, house, wife and kids? Perhaps you’ve just finished college and indeed you passed, we saw the pictures of your graduation all over Facebook and finally a testimony on Sunday. Well done. – Now that we are back to minding our own business you are thinking, “I need to get a job”.

You probably do, because Stella finally wants to get married. She stopped attending sex parties, casual dating, posting nudes and going wild a few years ago to join the Church and you’re the only job opportunity she has. Stella wants the same thing you want from the job. Apparently she was looking at mirrors more than book pages and valued Facebook comments more than report card comments. You did the passing school part for her and you have potential. The prom queen was impressing people who liked her on Facebook but not in physical life. She wants the same thing you want from the job now.– Security

Potential doesn’t pay lobola however. Tezvara is going to be sitting in shorts and charging random numbers and lobola culture will never stop cause he paid too and it’s time to get his money-back that he paid for Stella’s mum. Just gotta revenge on the next guy huh? It’s not about appreciation as they claim. Appreciation like an apology can’t be mandatory, it’s about security. That degree of yours that his daughter boasted about to the family is going to get your pockets milked. – Expectations are on weed.
So for now you’re not planning anything solid with Stella, she doesn’t even know where she stands in your life. You’re looking for a job. She doesn’t need one, she’s going to stick with you. You are the job but you’ve been broker than when Job was in dire-straits.

Let’s fix this part before we hurt people’s feelings; Stella does not represent every woman and you do not represent every man. I know there are feminists and academics already blowing horns to say, “Pawrah that’s too stereo-typical and preachy” This article is also NOT suggesting that all girls look forward to marriage as an ultimate goal neither does it assume all academic hustlers have no jobs. It is simply talking about the percentage of the ones who do fit the shoes. So if offended, this article is your correct shoe size and you can wear it. I’m just saying…

Stella and you are meant for each other because you are sides of the same coin.

You thought that having a degree scores you a job immediately, while Stella thought having a curvy behind and a pretty face will score her a husband. The problem was, you were not the only guy with a degree and she was not the only girl to have a fine behind. No unique selling proposition. University graduates are no longer rare; they could be more than pastors because most pastors are graduates too. Buttock-enlarging pills and bleaching creams are on every corner where airtime is sold in Harare so Stella, sexual appeal is gonna be harder to let you in than you thought.- Entitlement, entitlement, entitlement.

I’m not saying you won’t win through that method, but chances are slimmer for you now.

It is no wonder why more people are cosy being side-chicks nowadays. Work your way up, vacancies in places you want are few. When the desired vacancy opens up they’ll choose you ‘cause you are already in the organization right? Well the same doesn’t apply with side-chicks; you don’t become the main chick. Trust that he’s now searching for the main chick. So ignore me and never mind that there are other opportunities where you could be first that you over-look. You can be second best in that relationship or job. Side-chicks can be pretty and the jobless can be educated people.

You thought life was about, “As long as you have your papers right.

She also thought love was about, “As long as he has his paper right.”

Now you both really don’t care. You are less picky now; you’ve reached a point where rese-rese is acceptable. To Stella Wese-Wese is acceptable. She’s dating dudes with standards she vowed she’d never date. At 19 she rejected Paul because he was 19 too and therefore too young. She chose Bruce who was 26 because he drove. Now she’s 26 flirting with 22 year olds. In her days she friend zoned dudes that are now doing well off. They moved on and they married the women who didn’t undermine them. The only thing left to do.- Anointing soap, handkerchiefs or oil.

Buddy, the very opportunities you “friend-zoned” may be your come-up. Proudly you put on a better than “un-educated friends” robe as you hung your laptop bag on your left shoulder headed for campus. Lost touch with your friends who didn’t exceed A-level, though they were good at other things huh? Education is not bad at all, but it is not confined to academia. Most times what I see are academic thinkers assuming the world owes them a job because they deserve it “better” than the guy who didn’t take their route.

I see beautiful girls puzzled when the “ugliest” duckling in the room gets the man yet they experience heartbreak after heart break from jerks. They tend to think men are looking for sexiness. Yes men want sexy women but who isn’t sexy in 2015? Clothes are cheap, food and cosmetics are accessible. Do you add more value after looking pretty or you cause more stress?

Definitely education is good, I did mine. However, if I can’t apply it to real world challenges I can’t get a job or create one. This generation must think out of the conventional box and knock out that sense of entitlement.

People in this era will give money to a person who produces results not a result slip. Men in this era will put a ring on a girl who uses her mind than her behind. – Rev. Mcpotar *Quote me on this*

The one who uses her behind can sit behind the one who uses her mind.– Second place.

Be the woman behind his success not be successful because you have a behind.- Rev. Mcpotar *and this too.*

If you have marketing qualifications yet struggle to get more followers for your company on twitter, I’d rather hire @SirNige to do your job (He has over 30,000 followers – which is huge in Zim). I don’t know if he did marketing or not, maybe he did. Honestly I do not care. What I do know is he produces results. I’d also love a wife with a behind and a mind at the same time, but given a situation where she has one of the two. I will go for the mind because it’s permanent. To ladies that invest a lot in those creams, pills and potions, I advise you to also invest in seminars, DVD’s and programs that develop you mentally.
