GRANDPA JOBS



My father told me a story. In fact, I should say he tells me a story, because, I’m still going to hear it maybe 20 times more before I’m off his grip. Perhaps he doesn’t remember he has told me before, but I’m going to tell you now, condensed, and hope that I do not forget I have told you before, like my father.


He told of me of his father, my grandfather. He told me my granddad was a man very much blessed with foresight. My granddad (of blessed memory or however Moslems revere their dead) was a Moslem. We hail from Ikere-Ekiti, but his ancestors were the Oyos, famed Ajala travelers, especially because of the rampant internecine wars of old, which was why they were in Ikere in the first place. Because of the Oyo nature to scatter all over, they devised some sort of recognition technique – famed, spectacularly ugly and disfiguring tribal marks called the “Abaja” – not very

FINDING GRAFFENBERG


You know I internet-trawl a lot? Yes, you know. Inevitably, one is bound to make discoveries one wouldn’t normally make sitting on his arse and staring into space, or lying on his tummy/back and still staring into space. On this day, I found Graffenberg, or let me say he found me.


Ernst Graffenberg is one of those many unlucky German Jews who got rounded up in a bid to create the “blue-eyed blond-haired” super race – the Aryan race (wasn’t Hitler dark-haired and unattractive when he wasn’t raving?). Herr Graffenberg was also among the many stupid ones who thought their high placing in the German society would exempt them from the Nazi purge and didn’t bother taking to their heels when
presented the chance. Fortunately, he was one of the lucky few who were allowed to be ransomed from the nasty Nazi prisons and ended up in the US, New York City to be precise. Ernst Graffenberg was also a medical doctor – a gynaecologist.


You’ve heard of that thing called a G-spot? Yes, it was named after Herr Doktor for his role in pointing out the role of the urethra in female organism. I believe his name is unrelated to the now mostly extinct G-string. Back on topic, the G-spot is an erogenous zone, a part of the body that, if the right amount of pressure is applied, all sorts of wonderful sensations can be felt. Apparently, the G-spot is the most profoundly powerful of all these zones because it can result in the “Big O” in no time.


The question now is; how did Mr Graffenberg come about his findings? I recently thought about the fact that my wife (in the future of course) would get pregnant and might have some male, who because he has a fancy two-letter title called Dr, would be doing all sorts of nasty stuff to my wife’s genitals and beyond – peeking, stroking, touching, feeling. Damn! Herr Graffenberg must have used his position of “power” to know that there lies a certain spot, two inches into the vagina (on the frontal wall), that can cause explosions worse than Saddam’s Scud missiles and more pleasurable than a tank of warm chocolate. I read all that, just in case you think I’ve been studying the female anatomy physically, although you can’t be quite sure. I shudder to think of many a wife that would have come back to Herr Graffenberg’s office for a quick fix, the concept of orgasms being quite alien to men of those days. I still understand if it is the clitoris because that isn’t exactly out of sight, but something as well-hidden as the so-called G-spot; how does a man know about it when not many females know where it is themselves? You would see that I use certain terms freely. Yes, I use them because, believe it or not, they are part of the body. If I can say you have a head, or a stomach, or an anus (yuck), you must as well have a vagina or a penis, I lie?


It is still somewhat disputed if such a spot as the G-spot exists, principally because it is so hard to find, but I can’t but help  to think that Herr Graffenberg may have set me a new challenge. But how won’t it be hard to find for the male folk who are still coming to grasps with unclasping the exotically named brassiere? Adventurous men and women, over to you.


P.S: Being a sexologist must be the most exciting and “rewarding” job in the entire world.

WESTERN ILL, MY IRREVERENT BLACK ASS

I'm amazed that some people still blame the West whenever issues of morality are raised. Matter of fact, I'm not amazed. I'm merely find it muy amusing.


Of the many stories my father tells me - many of them so repeatedly I can almost recite them verbatim - one fits this occasion.


My father told me of his father, my grandfather. My father told me that once before, his already married father chanced upon a girl, and like David with Bathsheba, he became seized with the urge to possess her. Nowadays, that possession may mean merely to engage in flagrante delicto with and dump, whilst compensating for the act materially. Then, it meant forceful marriage. This girl had a man nearer her age she was in love with, and looked to marry. Wait for the catch


My father told me it was the practice then, to collude with such a girl's father, to commit what I can only term as a dastardly act of utmost selfishness. My father told me that his father colluded with the girl's father, and it was decided that my father's father hire strappling men, who would be today's equivalent of bouncers, bodyguards, or your random street touts. My father's father had the girl waylaid, abducted and brought to his abode. This girl in question would never step out the out until her belly was protruding enough to deter the most "in-love" of young men. Even without the deterrence, the protruding belly meant certain marriage to the old fart, no apologies to my father's father or the numerous fathers of fathers who partook in this practice.


The West did not bring moral perversion on us, we were creative enough for that by ourselves! After all, we slaughtered twins, cannibalized, offered human sacrifices long before the first pointy-nosed European thought we may have been fertile ground. Our women dressed in leaves that left so much to the imagination, were raped on their ways to the stream or the farm. Hell, we even sold ourselves into slavery for a mirror, a fucking mirror! Did we complain? Hell no!


Truth is, humans everywhere have perversions in them, no matter the spatial location, no matter the colour. Stop this nonsense of blaming the West for your morals. You can blame them for a lot of things, like starting world wars for instance (I didn't hear of any fighting in the Antarctica, mind), or finding more creative ways to be morally bankrupt. But remember this, it's in you.


Idi-Amin could have started a world war, if he had been born in the right place.
