Maina Kageni was taken aback when a female acquaintance raised a thought-provoking question about why men often struggle to refuse intimate encounters initiated by women.

"I had a conversation with a lady yesterday who asked why men find it so hard to say NO. If a woman makes advances towards you, why can't you simply say no?"

Mwalimu King'ang'i chimed in, saying, "Maina, it's not in our nature! Guys, why is it challenging for you to decline?"

A caller commented, "Maina, men are often the weakest when it comes to this aspect. The word 'No' seems to be absent from their vocabulary."

Netizens also shared their thoughts on the matter:

June Moraa: Men are just promiscuous...but it's natural, so let them respond to their instincts in peace.

Ann Njenga: You need to learn how to say no; otherwise, women will always take advantage of you because you appear weak. Men should understand that women can say no even in vulnerable situations. Why is it so difficult for them to say no? Where is their self-respect and principles?

Simba Ya Luvinii: Among us, Maina, saying no is the more challenging option, especially when we have pure intentions. That's just how it is. #MainaAndKingangi

Brian Wanjama: History records Joseph's resolute "no" to Potiphar's wife. Look at how things turned out. If it weren't for divine intervention, he would have been imprisoned. So, how about you?

Jennifer Kanyiri: The intense level of desire in men prevents them from saying no to such advances because, deep down, they belong to the 'hyena club'—nothing more.

While discussing the topic, Maina Kageni and Mwalimu King'ang'i explored the societal expectations and personal choices that influence men's ability to reject intimate advances from women. The conversation shed light on the complexity of human nature and the dynamics of relationships.
