Being a woman is hard: Stacy Macheso

Maria Chiguvari

ALICK Macheso’s daughter, Stacy, says it’s hard to be a woman.

In her Instagram story, she wrote:

“Being a woman is hard, you get abused physically and verbally but we’re told to stay.

“Being a woman is totally difficult.

“You ask for his phone and you get pushed and almost getting beaten.

“Being a woman is really a pain because you’re forced to accept his brother’s shouting at you whilst he is there doing nothing and I, as a woman, I’m tired of it.

“It is my fault that I am woman, do I really have to suffer all this because I am a woman?”

In another story she posted, she stated that it worries her that her daughter will go through the same thing.

“I cry every day, every time I look at my child and ask my self is she is going to be assaulted and insulted as if she’s nothing and is she going to be treated with no respect with people and no one is going to be there for her even her husband?

“God, why?”

Later on the same day, Stacy deleted the story and went on to write that her marriage was in good shape. She indicated she was just worried about other people’s marriages.

She wrote:

“Hi everyone, I’m sorry for this but I didn’t mean I’m being abused, ndataura sekumirira vakadzi, I have family and friends who face these issues vanouya ku dm kwangu saying they are being abused.

“I love my husband, we fight here and there but it doesn’t mean that I am being abused.”
