    I predict that most of the comments to follow will be about Jacob Zuma and his illegitimate children

    Of the 64% single mothers how many are getting paid monthy support by the father? I have always told my (male) children and young (male) friends and colleagues that one can never get away from the responsibility for one’s sperm – maybe I have been wrong all these years!!!!

    Sad that we have a system that somehow facilitates this and it get replicated with generations that follow.

    This means 1,150,000 women who have no support for their illegitimate children from men who believe their “CULTURE” allows them to do as they please when it comes to facing totally essential responsibilities towards offspring, who are quite normally loved and nurtured by men from other cultures. Small wonder that my late grandfather believed that, the hand that rocks the cradle should rule the world. These culture-vulture good-for-nothing men should be treated with utmost disrespect and be served very severe sentences for not taking adequate responsibility for the fruits of their very overactive, uncontrolled loins. People like these are of absolutely no value to any world society, however up-market or down-market it may be. Why or how women place their trust in slouches like these is beyond human reasoning!
