Why have women become so comfortable in defending their other halves? Whether it’s a boyfriend, a fiance, a husband. Why have they become so comfortable defending cheating lousy behavior?
If JAY Z could cheat on Beyoncé, if Ken could cheat on De'arra (TWICE), if Offset could cheat on Cardi B then anybody can cheat! That's the saying nowadays. We defend cheating by comparing it to celebrities who have supposedly 'overcome' the embarrassment.
It’s not yours or my right as a woman to defend this behavior and that is what I have seen in our society. We have made it such a normal thing to defend the infidelity of our partners just for the sake of keeping the relationship going and avoiding the hardship and the heartbreak of dealing with the disappointment.
A part of me firmly believes that because we see several female celebrities defending their husbands, boyfriends & partners for cheating, it has become engraved in society and communities that it’s okay for my partner to cheat I will just defend him and keep it moving, I'll just call out the side-chick and get my PR team to put together a statement.
I mean come on, Beyoncé took Jay Z back, why can’t I take back my partner? Minor. That's what goes through your mind right?
We have to remember that when it comes to celebrities they have a reputation to keep for example putting JAY Z and Beyoncé together makes them a couple worth $1 billion, Cardi B and Offset together brings a lot of revenue, De'arra and Ken together allows them to monetize their relationship because they’re a well-known YouTube BLACK couple.
They have a lot to lose I guess, but they still have the option like everyone else to move on, they are humans just like the rest of us. But what about you? The University student with the lying and cheating son of a b**** of a boyfriend, what have you got to lose? Why are you equating your relationship to those of celebrities and influencers?
Is everything OK at home hun?
Why is it okay for us to take on the embarazzzment of being cheated on and even take on further embarazzzment by keeping this guy in our lives. Why is that?
If he was capable of cheating on you once, what makes you think he can't do it again? What makes you think he won't make up excuses again? Why is it so easy for us women to forgive and forget infidelity and pick up the pieces, but if it was the other way round it would be TABOO to say the least.
Some things gotta change because damn,
That's all for today readers! I have been MIA because university is kicking my ass right now but I will be consistent again I promise :)
