Men diluted the bill.

That's what I got.
They redefined matrimonial property to mean what is owned jointly in marriage.

What do you mean by "ukienda"? If you mean mzee dies I think that will be about inheritance... but if you mean divorce, then each takes their contribution. But I am wondering how the contribution will be calculated!

Are we not equal, men and women?
I support this and I am unapologetic about it. If there is anything that turns my blood cold its the thought of being turned out to the street after a split in middle age, with your house and investments which you have worked so hard for during your youth handed to your ex-wife. I am not hitched currently, and have a few coins here and there - earned by back breaking effort, blood and sweat; parliament is right to say that whoever I marry keeps hers paws of the stuff I acquired prior- or even those I acquired after out of my own resourcefulness and capital if she didn't put in hard and countable currency.
Hakuna kucheka na watu. Men are bad but so are women. The pragmatist in me tells me that when I marry, there is also a probability of the union failing. What follows from that is cold, hard logic - and the logic is a man can't afford to build his life from scratch over again if he splits from his wife. Some of a man's assets need to be untouchable (for those who are about to tell me about love and its all conquering ways and my own flawed attitude, save your breath - people cant be fully trusted, and that is only constant worth trusting completely these days)
Read European papers. Men over there get cleaned out by gold-digging and scheming wives, especially Britain, where family courts usually strip guys bare leaving them destitute and depressed.
I have no qualms about property that was co-acquired (both names on the deed) being split up. But stuff registered in just one person's name should be theirs. It is up to women to be alert and ensure that their spouses do not con them. When they hand over money to the husband, they should demand to be cosignors in the business/property arrangement. Away with this silly ambiguity that 'husbands make wealth because women are making a stable home'

Will it be a marriage or a business agreement?

This woman goes to work, or (if she is lucky or unlucky depending on how you look at it) to the biashara you have opened for her, works her butt off all day, comes home to deal with the kids and then when you finally get home she treats you like a small god (because she knows you expect it) and you want her to walk away with only what she contributed? How do you even start calculating that?

Hii kitu haitaki sheria moja. Case by case basis I say. Take the following 2 examples:

1) Relationship A: Man A marries Woman A. Man A is the sole breadwinner. Woman A is a stay at home mum. She takes care of the kids and puts the house in order. Man A, out of the cheekiness of his loins, decides to take off with some random femme fatale. Their relationship ends on that basis. It is fair to split their wealth right through the middle regardless of who actually made what.

2) Relationship B: Man B marries Woman B. Man B is the sole breadwinner. Woman B is a stay at home gossip. She does nothing but idle in the neighborhood and propagate whichever rumor happens to be in the air. Her home and children are poorly managed and Man B ends the relationship on that basis. Fairness dictates that she leaves only with the dirty smelly weave and fake buttocks that she showed up with at his door the day he miscalculated and decided to marry her.

My 2 thedis.
