MOST KENYANS WOMEN AND GIRLS ARE TOO POOR TO USE CONDOMS
Majority of Kenyan women are too poor to use condoms according to research conducted by social workers at the majority of Nairobi slums of Kibera, Kawagware, Mathare and among others
Poverty is forcing young girls and poor women is engage in protective sex in order to generate extra income and if action is not taken cases of HIV, AIDS is likely going to double in few years.
Kenya women are too poor especially single ladies in slums and they needs money to feed there familes educate children and pay house rent, while on there side young girls both in Schools and colleges needs airtime for phone cells and other needs forcing them to engage in sex trade.
Since men are provider of money they are the ones to decide weather to use condoms or not according to those who talked to social workers in Nairobi.
Men claims ones you give women money they are like your properties and you can use condoms or not because they are those willing to have sex without them or not.
I cannot pay house rent for a lady and still use condom a named man told media in Nairobi early this week
The same is for working class women in Kenya because ones a man buys for them a car house and provide other needs he cannot use condom because he believes that the woman belongs to him
The only way to protect women from being used as sex tools is to empower them and create more awareness ,because even both Schools boys and colleges from rich families who give young girls money no longer use condoms and those girls are after money they cannot refuse.
