First Lady of Zimbabwe, Grace Mugagbe faces backlash after shocking comment

While addressing thousands of Zanu PF supporters at a rally in Mberengwa this week, the First lady of Zimbabwe Grace Mugagbe said women who wear mini skirts have no one but themselves to blame if they are raped by sexual perverts.
 "If you walk around wearing mini skirts displaying your thighs and inviting men to drool over you, then you want to complain when you have been raped? It’s unfortunate because it will be your fault."
Lol. What a daft statement! The First Lady then called on women to wear long dresses or trousers. She said the type of dressing, which left women’s legs exposed, was a result of moral decadence.

Linda answer oh
It's as a result of wearing mini earlier or sometime ago n putting sweet evil idea in the guys heart
I grew up in Benin so I support her on this

My sisters dress the way U want to be addressed. Civilisation does not call for nudity. Adam n Eve were naked only in heaven, when they descended to earth, things changed n the realised being clothed is what matters...n doing the opposite is going back to the stone age.

As an end noted...I am a 100 with what the First lady of Zimbabwe said. keep telling them the truth ma'am.

While there's no excuse for rape, there's however some truth in what the woman said.

Our people say: "he that brings home worn infested firewood should expect the visit of lizards". Some of the dressing these days is by itself degrading.

John Doe said...

From another perspective...it's not really a daft statement. As they say prevention is better than cure...

Vry daft statement indeed, imagine even if u wear a long or short skirt some men are dog,He goat,they can, t over look anything under.madam first lady I beg packwell.

Anonymous said...

Some people cannot handle the truth. The West these women are copying have law enforcement agencies in times of need. In Africa, you are on your own. If you get raped, you report to the police station, the DPO himself may rape you too. Why not consider the society you live in and not draw unnecessary attention to yourself. Like the folks that show off, when armed robbers or kidnappers come calling, who are you going to call? Africana Police? Good luck!

Oofcourse she is right!!! Why the backlash.... men are sensitive to women's body, wearing a mini skirt is like deliberately calling men to yourself....... ma you are right!!

Let us say the truth, 90% of rape cases are caused by indecent dressing by women. Men are sexually driven by their eyes. Rape is wrong but there's sense in what she said period.

Yeah i support her b'cos wearing clothes that reveals your private side will any time attract men around you and if they can't have you easily, that is when some will take rape as the only way to do it , which is very bad.
I believe wearing trousers and gown will reduces rate of rapes cases in the world, but mind you i don't support people wearing long gown and veil just to terrorise others.

True talk.....

Unknown said...

Well, she may have used the wrong words, but she has a point in what she said. When you dress seductively and walk about in public, you draw unnecessary glance from street urchins.

I don't see anything wrong in wat this woman said.religiously if we should follow bible teachings a woman should dress up properly and cover up properly only harlots expose body part hence Mary magdalen was almost stoned.the Muslims cover up properly so don't tell me nonsense d woman was on point

Unknown said...

@Lindaikei,it's quite unfortunate you refer 2d president's wife's statement as 'daft'..U're just so naive,immature and unintelligent abt ur response to dis issue.Rape is forbidden and punishable under laws but in terms of morals,d girls shd do better in their way of dressing as not to invoke some kind of spiritual and psychological 'spark' on d 'emotionally and sexually vulnerable men'..Dn't blame d woman,she has her own opinion which is only understandable to those that care to understand in terms of morals n good way of dressing by ladies.Meanwhile,rapists should be JAILED!

A rapist is a rapist regardless of what a woman wears. Women in hijab and burkas have been raped, toddlers and little girls have been raped, elderly women have been raped. Rapist a predators who prey on the weak. It is not the victims fault

evly said...

As a woman, I don't understand how you can excuse rape... So what about men that rape babies or little children nko. I have worn a very long dress before and a man from nowhere came up to me and pressed my breasts and then ran away. So there is absolutely no excuse for men to rape women and once society begins to frown against it and not excuse the men then hopefully it will stop.

evly said...

Thank you... it's because society still excuse the men that's why these men still take the piss and blame the woman. There is no excuse for rape even if the woman is naked.

Those calling her daft are the daft ones themselvess. The woman was damn right on the money. It is a well known scientific fact that men are moved by visual stimuli. So if a stupid foolish woman decides to knowingy entice and ensnare men by wearing provocative clothes, she has herslef to blame.It is called decency, if not some people will go out stark naked.
It is like carrying bundles of millions of naira in broad daylight in lagos and strolling around with it because times have changed! You will be robbed mindless and possibly killed by robbers. Anyone advising you to conceal your money tosave your life is giving a good advice. So the first lady advicing women to dress properly is doing the job of a good mother.

Rapists suffer from a rare kind of mental imbalance. Even when you are obviously well dressed and covered with your hijacked and all as a fervent Muslim woman or wrapped all over with a very thick cloth like an Egyptian Mummy, they still manage to easily undress you completely in their mind's eyes.

Anonymous said...

When people know better, they do better. Grace Mugabe is a woman who got her current husband, Robert, by carrying on an illicit affair at work even while both were married at the time. So, in addition to lacking the moral compass to make a judgement on female dress modes, she is myopic in her outlook and comprehension of such a challenging issue as sexual assault and rape. For instance, how would she and others like her, explain the rape of fully-clothed grandmothers returning home from their farmlands or innocent babies/toddlers who have no concept of enticing a man? Go figure@ATM

The percentage of rape is even fewer for strong matured ladies that have opened eyes wella. Don't be lazy. Read

I think it was preposterous of you Linda to label her comments 'daft'. While she might have not put in much thought on how her comments would be perceived as presented, I my candid opinion, she actually makes decent sense.
We are all humans, and our weaknesses vary...to one he can't taking what is not his, to another 'aristo' is so appealing and so on. To some brothers who lack morals or decency, a little 'thing' could trigger the 'impulse'.
I once heard my grandfather say men of his days could maintain composure even after seeing naked ladies in the stream, but men of these days could barely stand a woman's laundered lingerie hanging down the lines...
