Buenos Dias Wed July 9
Buenos Dias all – Valley – wow, a rope swing. Fun to be a kid. Recently I got on a rope swing and all the kids were surprised to see an adult to it. Powsharon – Hope that you enjoy your slow day. I would love to get one of those. Valleygril50 you sound like you have many things keeping you busy.
Well, I told everyone about the 50 people screaming at me on Monday. Yesterday my wife was attacked. Instead of calling me to meet her at the bus and walk her home she decided she would walk with the student who arrived on the bus with her. But then remembered she wanted to buy some hamburger and sent the student ahead to the house. I heard the yells from the probably more than 50 people more than a block away.
It is no wonder that laws are not enforced in Colombia. It seems that Colombians have no respect for the rights of another individual and have no manners in terms of how to treat a woman. For that many males to verbally attack a lone female shows a complete lack of respect and manners. For a town mayor to not just allow it, but incite the action is even worse. There is reference on a Colombian blog site to a Colombian man hitting another woman in town because she asked to have the music turned down in the stadium on a Sunday morning. And if I remember correctly that was a day they had it so loud that it was shaking the windows of my house.
Colombian men having a complete lack of respect for women is normal. Several women I have met have husbands who cheat on them and if the woman says anything or complains it always seems to be her fault. While the laws to protect the women in a divorce are there, they are like many other laws in the country, not worth the paper they are written on.
Well, I have classes to prepare for this evening. Wishing everyone a great day.
