The billioniares' vision of the world is a vision without humanity.

To see the diaspora claim we have white people to thank for this legislation is insane because same-sex relationships were criminalised under apartheid & punishable by up to seven years in prison under the Immorality Act.

He's also worse

[miss honey 🍯 @foyinog]

magesh may be a “good” man but it’s only because jonasi is worse, and that’s why a lot of men rush to defend him. he’s a liar, coward, enabler and manipulator with no real morals but his sins are more passive than jonasi’s active evil so he’s “not that bad”

As a Black South African I’m always confused when people complain about shows that require subtitles to understand

Honey, almost EVERY show that raised me had about 5 languages spoken at once
I am a soldier of subtitles
I don’t even get distracted from the show itself

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

Sometimes when the energy shift happens and you stopped caring you don't realise it until later when you don't think the same, feel indifferent and aren't even bothered

[Sue Nyathi @SueNyathi]

It is based on a riddle to highlight incompatibility. If a bird and fish mate, where would they live? If they choose water, the bird will drown. If they choose air, the fish will die because it needs water.

Anyway, a reminder:

1. You don’t have to get married
2. You don’t have to have children
3. You don’t have to do 1 and 2 ESPECIALLY when you don’t want to

But in reality, Her husband was the malignant cancer that she removed.

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

Not to take away from your experience mara go ask for a cup of sugar and scene. It reminds me of the time someone said they were smelling delicious food from next door, turns out they fried cabbage in leftover oil from the wors

[Manzi @ClixWell]

Yeses, they know how to cook next door 😂 Everytime I leave my place, my neighbour is throwing down something that smells delicious.

If money is no issue buy both and blend to match your skintone as it changes from summer to winter

[Petite Ebony Girl 🇵🇸 @PetiteEbonyGirl]

Should I buy foundation that is a shade lighter or a shade darker?

She went willingly

[Misandry Olympian 🐝🤠 @Zoemkoena]

There's an au pair whose host family took her into their orgy party. Wtf???

[Yolophonik @Yolophonik]

Not you guys posting every scene of The Polygamist. Give us a chance.

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

You mean as usual he showed up for himself and what he benefits

[MA LE BO @Melo_Malebo]

Jo showing up for Joyce on one of the biggest days of her life wasn’t obligation, it was care. However complicated their relationship became, Jo loved Joyce in his own way. He showed up for her.

Majority of you are allergic to accountability, taking responsibility for your behaviours. Its always someone's fault. Always demanding to be coddled,throw tantrums because you have the emotional capacity of a toothpick. There's nothing special about men do the work stop whining

[D• @Oyin_Laoye]

If a woman is stressed, she has a group chat, a sister or a therapist to vent to.

When a man is stressed, he sits in his car for 30 minutes, stares into space, sighs and goes inside to face the family.

He is his own only safety net.

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

And we knew a man will ask 🥱 🥱🥱 being a village bicycle with *DDS* is not a flex

[Enny🌸 @_simplyenny]

After watching the Polygamist, I have a question for MEN. As a man,

What can a woman offer you so that you won't cheat or sleep around?

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

I was so disappointed the poison didn't do the job mara it shows that women are finally remembering recipes 👌🏽

[Tumi @Tumi213]

You actually go from disliking Jonas to realising that no no he HAS to die. Like it’s imperative

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

Art imitates life because as usual it will be scenes on Father's Day like it is every single year

[Gaspar @CaptainGaspar]

Dropping The Polygamist 2 weeks before father’s day and during world cup is the chaos that is marketing genius 😂😂😂

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

This is why women should never be Mabena the Builder

[MA LE BO @Melo_Malebo]

MaQwabe’s arc is actually kind of sad when you think about it. Deep down, she always knew she wasn’t Jonas’ ideal woman.

She knew she wasn’t the first option, and she knew she never would be. Not because there was anything wrong with her, but because Jonas always seemed drawn to women he viewed as more glamorous or aspirational.

You could see it in how little she demanded from him compared to the other wives. She wasn’t fighting to be the favourite because, on some level, she already knew she wasn’t. Even when it came to her daughter being recognised by Jonas’ family, she never seemed desperate for validation. For much.

It’s so tragic that she was there before the success. She invested in Jonas, supported him, and helped him get on his feet. Yet despite everything she poured into that relationship, she always seemed aware that she was building a future she might never fully share in. #ThePolygamist

[Etshwa Ollse @EOllse]

The plot twist no one will see coming is all the wives fall in love and do each other

[Yasmeen Ghauri stan account 🇿🇦🇧🇷 @purehijabey]

The Polygamist, Inimba and Uthando Nesthembu (recent season) have given us such great analyses and commentary on the patriarchy, misogynoir and sexism and how it is entrenched in South Africa under the pretext of culture and tradition.
