I don't know about you but when i was a kid i used to play a lot ...and i used to fight a lot with other kids.
It wasn't just me but other kids too.
I think i was a thing about supremacy or something like that.
we always wanted to know who was superior .
And when there was a fight we would talk about it for days.
Back then , it was believed ( still believed) that girls could't beat or fight boys.
In fact it was believed that guys don't fight girls ,but guys beat girls.
It's probably because of this weaker sex chauvinistic talk.
Any way, that's not what this story is about .
So lets keep all that aside.
Now when boys fought ,there was usually exchange of blows ,injuries , breaking of nose and some other things people do when they fight.
The guy who is too weak to continue the fight loses and the guy who weakens the other is usually the victor.
But the ultimate victory in any fight was when one could hold the other down and force grass and sand into his mouth.
That was like reducing the vanquished to the level of a goat.
It never happened often.
Ones in a while it did.
But i will never forget this one till i die.
Here is exactly what happened.
There is was a big hefty guy we used to call "fufule" cos he was bigger than most of us his age mates.
Fufule was a derogatory name that meant he ate too much "fufu" a staple Nigerian meal.
So we were playing as usual (i think it was soccer) and some girls were playing by the side.
One thing led to another and before we knew it, "fufule" wanted to beat up a girl (lets call here Lizzy) .
But before we could do a damn thing , all i can remember now is that ...the girl Lizzy was sitting on top of
the boy's belly while he struggled to break free from her hold.
The next thing ,she was forcing grass and sand down his throat.
I will never forget that sight.
It's felt like the guy lost his manhood.
I don't know how it happened but it did.
That was the worse thing that could ever happen to a guy then...
And we still talk about it...even up till now.
That's why you are reading this. ;)
