June 1962 - Last Of The Amazons - A Wife Must Be Tough

June 1962 - Last Of The Amazons - A Wife Must Be Tough She Tells The Young Girls - Asked what she thought about modern women, madam Abrah Agbekotse pouted her lips and almost spat. All they want is fine clothes and sweet things. They are so soft as bolied cocoyam leaves. They can't control their own children, leave alone their husbands and men in general. Tchuah, they should have seen us in our time. We made women proud; we proved that men are no stronger than us merely because their sex is different. Men want to dominate women, and that's why they take every opportunity to show that they are tougher than us. The only way for women to dominate them is to show that we are equally tough.
