Are You The Michelle To His Barack?
“A smart man is smarter and greater when he marries a smart woman” -Funso Adegbola
Recently, my friend said “I don’t like all girls, these days. They’re all funny. They complain about how boys want women to be like Michelle but then attack the boys for not being like Barack. They’re never content. They’re always fantasizing about their ideal men. Why can’t they build these men up? Why can’t they inspire these men to treat them like Princesses?”
I took in her message merely adding “I don’t take all these things serious. Talk is the cheapest thing in the
world. Everyone can talk and everyone will talk”.
Barack and Michelle are the quintessential couple. He’s the most powerful man in the world and is a symbol of the fact that the world is evolving to a level where the idea of a black man running the show on a political level doesn’t seem absurd. He captured our hearts while running for the Presidency in 2008. His campaign was the symbol of cool, as seen with his use of the power of celebrity culture. He sparked an interest in politics that the global recession and George Bush had annihilated.

As much as I think that its unfair to generalize on the Nigerian girl thingy, we ladies should learn to look beyond the now. That guy in bathroom slippers cld have the potential to be Mr president tomorrow and might need u to unlock his destiny. Ask Dame Patience.
