Then, it was regarded as something normal for a man to beat up one of his wives. The understanding of the women was that their husband is strong and is a 'real' man. Such a man is regarded as a no nonsense man by our small society.

When a woman wakes up around 5.00am in the morning, she prepares breakfast for her husband and children and leave for the farm around 6.30am. At times she leaves while it is raining.
