Men handle household chores and serve their mistresses, and early cooperation shifts over time into forced labor and mistreatment. Public punishment without fair hearing, tighter rules, and blame placed on men intensify. Despite calls for dialogue and repeated meetings, conditions worsen until men are barred from meeting publicly and remain at home.","Men or Women  \nWanaume au Wanawake  \nWriter: Simon Ipoo  \nIllustration: Wiehan de Jager, Rob Owen, Magriet Brink, Vusi Malindi, Mango Tree and Zablon Alex Nguku  \nEnglish, Swahili (macrolanguage) Culture  \nMen or Women  \nWanaume au Wanawake  \nWr iter : Simon Ipoo  \nIllustr ation: Wiehan de Jager , Rob Owen, Magr iet Br ink, Vusi Malindi, Mango Tr ee and Zablon Alex Nguku  \nSwahili Tr anslation by Ham isi Matemelela, PC Tanzania Facilitated by Ven Ander son, PC Tanzania  \nEnglish, Swahili (macr olanguage) United Republic of Tanzania  \nMen or Women Wr iter : Simon Ipoo  \nIllustr ation: Wiehan de Jager , Rob Owen, Magr iet Br ink, Vusi Malindi, Mango Tr ee and Zablon Alex Nguku  \nSaide, South Afr ican Institute for Distance Education [www.afr icanstorybook.or g](www.afr icanstorybook.or g)  \nA Saide Initiative  \nCopyr ight © 2015, Lolupe pilot site  \n[http://cr eativecommons.or g/licenses/by/4.0/](http://cr eativecommons.or g/licenses/by/4.0/)  \nYou ar e fr ee to make commer cial use of this wor k.

In that country, women ruled. They held all leadership positions. They were the chiefs, elder s and the main decision makers.  \nHii ni hadithi ya nchi moja ambayo ilikuwa nauongozi wa kikatili. Katika nchi hii wanawake walitawala walishika nafasi zote za uongozi. Walikuwa machifu, wazee na watoa maamuziwakuu.  \nMen did all the house chores. They served their mistresses. At first, everything went on well. Everyone did their share of work perfectly.  \nWanaume wote walifanya kazi za nyumbani waliwahudumia wake zao. Mwanzoni, kila kitukilienda vizur i. Kila mtu alishir iki katika kazi vizur i.  \nHowever , with time this changed. Women started becoming cruel to men. Men did forced labour . They were mistreated by women. Any family disagreements were blamed on men.  \nHata hivyo kutokana na muda mambo yalibadilika. Wanawake walianza kuwa wakatili kwa wanaume. Wanaume walifanya kazi za kutumikishwa. Walinyanyaswa na wanawake kutokukubaliana kwakila familia walilaumiwa wanaume.  \nMen were punished in public without a fair hearing. Women tightened the rules and did not respect the rights of men.  \nWanaume waliadhibiwa hadharani bila haki yakusikilizwa. Wanawake walibana sher ia nahawakuheshimu haki za wanaume.  \nDespite all this bad treatment, men wanted dialogue to resolve their  \nproblem. They called for a series of meetings. But even the meetings, women did not change.  \nLicha ya mabaya waliyotendewa, wanaume walitaka mazungumzo kutatua shida zao.  \nWaliitisha mikutano mbalimbali. Lakini pamoja namikutano, wanawake hawakubadilika.  \nThe rules tightened more and more. Men were not allowed to meet in public any more. They remained at home as women worked in offices.  \nSheria ziliwabana zaidi na zaidi. Wanaumehawakuruhusiwa kukutana hadharani tena. Walibaki nyumbani na wanawake walifanya kaziofisini.","cbCailHkfoOxNqGC","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailHkfoOxNqGC","pdf",27349541,18,"English","en",105,"# Men or Women\n## Cruel leadership and gender power\n## Forced labor and public punishment\n## Failed dialogue and tightening rules","[{\"question\":\"How is leadership structured in the story’s country?\",\"answer\":\"Women hold all leadership positions, including chiefs, elders, and key decision makers.\"},{\"question\":\"What changes over time for the men?\",\"answer\":\"Men face forced labor, mistreatment, public punishment without a fair hearing, and blame for family disagreements.\"},{\"question\":\"Do the men’s calls for dialogue lead to improvement?\",\"answer\":\"No. Meetings are held, but women do not change, and rules continue tightening until men cannot meet publicly.\"}]",1784297049,28,{"code":4,"msg":29,"data":30},"ok",{"site_id":23,"language":22,"slug":31,"title":13,"keywords":32,"description":14,"schema_data":33,"social_meta":85,"head_meta":87,"extra_data":89,"updated_unix":26},"men-or-women-story-about-cruel-leadership-in-one-country","",{"@graph":34,"@context":84},[35,52,67],{"@type":36,"itemListElement":37},"BreadcrumbList",[38,42,46,49],{"item":39,"name":40,"@type":41,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":43,"name":44,"@type":41,"position":45},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":47,"name":12,"@type":41,"position":48},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/",3,{"item":50,"name":13,"@type":41,"position":51},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/men-or-women-story-about-cruel-leadership-in-one-country/90804/",4,{"url":50,"name":13,"@type":53,"author":54,"headline":13,"publisher":56,"fileFormat":59,"inLanguage":22,"description":14,"dateModified":60,"datePublished":61,"encodingFormat":59,"isAccessibleForFree":62,"interactionStatistic":63},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":55},"Person",{"url":39,"name":57,"@type":58},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-26","2026-07-17",true,{"@type":64,"interactionType":65,"userInteractionCount":11},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":66},"ViewAction",{"@type":68,"mainEntity":69},"FAQPage",[70,76,80],{"name":71,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":73},"How is leadership structured in the story’s country?","Question",{"text":74,"@type":75},"Women hold all leadership positions, including chiefs, elders, and key decision makers.","Answer",{"name":77,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":78},"What changes over time for the men?",{"text":79,"@type":75},"Men face forced labor, mistreatment, public punishment without a fair hearing, and blame for family disagreements.",{"name":81,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":82},"Do the men’s calls for dialogue lead to improvement?",{"text":83,"@type":75},"No. Meetings are held, but women do not change, and rules continue tightening until men cannot meet publicly.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":50,"og:type":86,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":57,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":88,"canonical":50},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":23},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":91},[92,95,99,103,108,113,118,123,128,131,135],{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},90,"story-novel",{"id":45,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":51,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":100,"show_sort_weight":101,"slug":102},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":104,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":109,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":110,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":114,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":121,"slug":122},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":124,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":125,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":127},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":130},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":133,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":134},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":136,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":137,"show_sort_weight":104,"slug":138},19,"General","general"]
