Married people,why do you cheat?

Why cheating when you can leave? What's holding you back???

Why is it hard for us(M) to forgive a cheating girlfriend/wife than the other way around?

I will never forget the stress and pressure i got from writing my thesis 😁Stuff ija siyachibwana eish...

What are some stories/ your memories of college days? Timve nawo

I don’t know if you lot are aware but have you noticed, so many nude pictures and videos of young Malawian women pleasuring themselves have been leaking every other month these days. And in light of MACRAs press release on this whole subject, I have an inkling of what the cause of this might be… walk with me for a minute. This might take a while.

A handful of years back, I went to visit a buddy of mine who was renting out a room at a servants’ quarters in one of the Lilongwe neighbourhoods, next to him was a room where two sisters in their early to mid 20s were also renting. I brought through a bottle of alcohol and my buddy and I started partaking in the alcoholic libations and later on, the two sisters joined us. After a while, one of them got up and said something to the effect of “I have to get ready. I’m going on a date… umaziwa ya Linny ija”. And that’s the day I was put on to what “Linny” was.

The two sisters left (I assume the other one was going to assist her sister in getting ready for this “date”) then I asked my buddy, “what or whom is Linny?” And he looked at me like I’m a crazy person. “You don’t know about Linny?” He asked, bewildered. I told him I didn’t. That’s when he pulled out his phone and searched for an account on Instagram… it was something like “LinnyBossLady” or something like that. He went on to explain that there is a lady (presumably named Linny, however I assume that it must be a Pseudonym of some sorts) who is overseas, from what I gathered, in Ireland or the UK who recruits girls under the guise of “financial freedom” to DM her. Her bio was really vague so my friend continued to explain to me

See, what happens is, the girls will send her (Linny) naked pictures of themselves or videos of them pleasuring themselves and she goes on and sells them on telegram to punters who are willing to purchase them, giving the girl a percentage and if the gentleman wants a “date” then they pay extra. And you know what I mean when I say “date”.

I was shocked but i didn’t know the scale of this whole endeavour until a couple of years ago when a friend of mine who was on the secret telegram group came to visit me one time and this whole topic came into the conversation. When I tell you that my jaw was on the floor… I saw A PLETHORA of girls that I know, either personally or from social media there, advertising themselves on this telegram group (or whatever you call them)! Believe you me, there were so many young women that I knew on there, I thought I was dreaming. “But they’re prostitutes!”, I exclaimed. And my friend (who is quite the horn dog, tbh, cuz wtf?) just shrugged in response.

He went on to show me some of the ones he went on “dates” with for the price of MWK 100,000 and some of the lewd content that he bought… IT WAS REALLY THEM! Soooo many women are using this method to make money guys, when I tell you that there are so many, maybe you think I’m exaggerating. I can confidently say over 50% of the women that I know are engaging with this. I was disheartened. You’d be surprised, dear reader, that you’d probably see your girlfriend, the girl you once had a thing with, a girl you want to slide into her DMs on this platform, your relatives on there. It was absolutely mental. I’m sure a lot of the women reading this post will also think “oh shit, our cover has been blown”

This was around 2024 when I saw this. The economy hasn’t gotten better so I can only assume that there are more women out there partaking in this prostitution ring. And NOTHING is being done about it! I’m just here to warn my brothers to do some proper research when approaching these women. Don’t be so quick to commit. Because there is a high chance she is a sex worker, selling pics of her 🐈 for MK30,000 and the real thing for MK100,000.

No wonder they are so entitled. Anyway guys. Hopefully someone will read this and something can begin to be done out there…. I mean, one can only dream. Stay safe out there people. Let’s empower our ladies. It’s a swamp out there. ♦️

I happen to like OmeTV nowadays much because some ladies from England told me am cute😂 anyway I randomly chill with people maybe mkupeza Visa. Gents you know what I mean, 😂 pa mpanje pano forex ndithu ikufunika.

So this day I went online and bumped into a certain bro from Malawi (Duntu) excuse me for my language Koma he deserves it anangofikila kundithila phuzo mu chichewa amwene and my aunt was close 😂 ndisanayankhe anavumbulusanso Lina amwene, I just swiped out of shame Koma If I was alone mkanabweza ndithu.

Again another day I bumped into amwenye instead of proper greetings mnangoyamba kulandira ma phuzo mu chichewa. They were three Koma Nah man I slammed them zoti anaziwanso.

Is there anyone who like OmeTV how is the experience?

​

Are there any writers here? 😆 And I don’t just mean people who write generally—I mean people who are into writing fiction films, fantasy, historical stories, TV shows, screenplays, that kind of stuff.

I’m one of 'em 😂. I’ve been getting really into writing stories and developing film/TV ideas, and I’d honestly love to know if there are other Malawians who are into the same thing.

Would be cool to share ideas, talk about storytelling, maybe even collaborate on something someday. 🇲🇼🎬

Grew up as a family genius , looking at my cousins and sibling I knew that one day when I become an adult I will need to solve most family issues that will need money. Educated up to degree level right now, married F with no child. Times have come when many of my relatives are looking up to me, being someone they have believed in since childhood. But things are tough for me too.

I am working ofcourse but my Salary cant even let me move from Blantyre to Lilongwe twice a year , If I do it once ndimakhala ndaduka,I farm ,I also run a small business, previously when maize prices were high things were not as bad ... But now its like I am back to square 1, I cant travel to see my parents. My husband helps koma ali ndi zakeso nayeso... Titani kweni kweni kuti tikhale ma graduate aphindu ngati akale aja ...

Yes I’m a mwenye or however yall say it 😂😂😂 im learning at Kuhes doing mbbs just started, I know I’ll need Chichewa to communicate with patients along my training, and advice or videos on how I can learn? I know very minimal words and mostly swears, but I need to learn the actual language please advise

(2026) Are we still having ka tradition komawapangila ana zochita interms of marriage?

Saw post ya guy yemwe akufuna kusiya school because he was caught beating his meat. Osasiya school fukwa mwagwidwa mukupanga zomwe almost every guy Amapanga.

Ine my brother walked on me while I was finishing,I was in my room doing my thing, headphones on, thinking everyone had left the house. Next thing I know, my elder brother swings the door open without knocking. He quickly closed the door and shouted muzikiya pakhomo and left. Of course they are different scenarios but people will move on and forget 🤣🤣

Are there any scholarships to take undergraduate students abroad? Especially for computer science/applied mathematics. I just got my IGCSE results and want to see if there's anywhere I can apply

Teach me something I don't know. It can be anything: a strange fact about Malawi, a life hack, a business trick, something you learned at work, a hidden place in Malawi, a money-saving trick, technology, history, relationships, farming, cooking, surviving adult life, or something your grandmother taught you that somehow actually works.

One rule: Give us something that will make someone reading the comments say, “Wait… WHAT? I never knew that!”

Ask questions, add your own knowledge, or challenge it respectfully. Let's turn the comments into the most random Malawian classroom on the internet.

Teach me something.

Could be a movie, TV series, anything worth recommending.
I need something new because I’m honestly disappointed with Silo Season 3. The buildup had me expecting a huge payoff, but so far it feels slower than I hoped.
So, what are you watching that you’d rate 9/10 or 10/10? Mind you I’ve watched a lot of movies and tv shows

Hi everyone! I am a mkazi wazungu (I don’t know if I am spelling that right haha), and texting with a Malawian man after meeting him on my recent trip to Malawi.
(I am very aware that Malawian men are charmers and don’t expect it to be anything other than a bit of harmless flirting)
I have some questions though:
- he keeps saying kkkk among his messages- does this mean anything in particular or just a filler? I think in English, if someone said this it would be ‘ok’ but with a touch of annoyance in it
- I am learning some basic Chichewa, he said he would teach me and is telling me a lot of things about it but I don’t think I’m a very good student with the structure of Chichewa, although I can repeat phrases and vocabulary with a good accent (he says haha), does anyone have any recommendations
- what is the social attitude to a Malawian man getting with a white woman - is this purely for status points or is there a chance he is also having fun
- what are Malawian men’s attitudes to their women being older? He doesn’t realise it because neither of us have spoken about our ages but I learned through a friend that I am 4 years older than him

Any other advice??

I like y'all here on Reddit.

This is a new account coz my first one wasn't anonymous and it was obvious🤣

I just wanted to take a moment and appreciate y'all active users you're all fun when expected and helpful when needed.

Much love
