There are lots to say, because there are lots of changes, but time will not permit me to go into all the details. However, I will make sure to take you back memory lane with me. Are you ready? Here we go.
Welcome back to my blog for this week's contest. It might interest you to know that we all have lots of memories to share with each other. Yours may be different from my, but all the same, we have been through alot. Be it good or bad. And it has caused a lot of changes in us too. But the good thing is that we are still alive to tell the story.
I will be going with this aspect of the contest 👇
" 30 years ago, what do you remember as a woman -vs- what is happening in the world today. One memory and what the change has been whether positive or negative. "
👉 30 years ago - I was just 17 there about. And that was 1992. And as a teen I was very ignorant of so many things. All I know is to eat, drink, sleep and go to school. Then I don't have to worry myself with bills to be paid, and so life was good and smooth. But what about today? Hahaha 😄 we will gradually get to that. Just be patient and keep moving with me. 🚶
👉 what do you remember as a woman -vs- what is happening in the world today. So many things to remember. But one of the most striking thing is that as a young girl, I was very Free with everyone especially the opposite sex. I had uncles, brothers and teachers that are male, but we move with them, around them, and also do house chores for some of them without fear of anything evil coming from them. Men were decent, men had the fear of God, men saw women with respect, men love women with a sincere love.
But what about today? Do I really need to answer that question? I don't think so. But so the sake of this contest, I will do justice to that.
What happened to our men? Where is all of these coming from? I don't know what has happened to our men that they only see women as nothing in our day. The case of rape is going on the rampage today. Every day you read you newspaper, you will hear of rape. Women are being raped everyday. Men don't care anymore, they don't care if the woman is crying against what they are doing or not. All they want to do is have sex whether you like it or not.
Alot have changed with our men today. Our fathers those days loved our mothers. They don't want anything bad to happen to them. They can do anything, go to any length to protect their wives. But today, men have turned to be wife beaters. What a world. The only thing I would not take from any man is beaten. I already told my daughters, when you get married tomorrow, make sure you have something doing to be making money in case the said husband is not taking proper care of them, but don't tolerate anyone turning you into a punching bag. You have the law to turn to.
👉 One memory and what the change has been whether positive or negative. "
the change is negative. It is not good at all! Women should learn to speak out if any man tries to undo advantage of them.
While, like I said from the beginning. I can't touch everything. But for today, we are going to stop here.
I am going to be inviting lots of friends that I met in the hive block chain to share their thoughts on this issue with the ladies of hive community.

STOPSo bad about rape incident we have been hearing.
If i see someone been punished for rape, I don't pity them at all they deserve it for being wicked to the girl child.
Yes dear. You have a point here. They deserve to be punished.
Sad but it is our reality today... Years back was really peaceful in this regard as women were well covered and protected than nowadays.
Our men have changed a lot, we even hear of fathers raping their female children... Really sad.
Something has to be done but could it be?
Nice fact you stated for the response to the question, all the best.
You are right dear. Thanks for adding your voice. Your comments are really touching.
You're welcome 😊
Sure as a lady we must have skills and not depend on mam for money always and the fact you said men nowadays have change,it’s true because they are lot of irresponsible boys now which I wonder how they are going to train their child when they get married🥲. So sad the world isn’t like it is before.
Thanks for adding your voice. Love you dear.
Smaller population back then without social media sharing negative news, people never discussed, it did happen.
Population explosion, distorted news on social ill's, best advice to boys and girls today, even if married to be cautious, abuse comes in many forms.
Thanks for your input. I do appreciate.
Hopefully moving forward addressing wrong doing by a few to woman and children, the boy child is not affected with stigma due to a handful who did wrong.
Thanks for adding your voice.
That is saddening to read. Hopefully women who are being abused will speak up and make those who do them wrong pay.
That is right. If they are made to pay for their crime, it will serve as a very big lesson to others.
Paying bills can make someone wish to go back to the little old days, but one most grow anyways.
Coming down to our day, so many things have changed. All this rape cases we hear on daily basis a times tracing it they are close relatives. I believe we will get over it someday.
Thanks for the invitation
Welcome dear. I appreciate.
