Who is she? Too skinny
@Kaizar Zulu, anger management therapy can’t help you. You’re sick beyond repair. No more hot cake days for you. Learn about double string pendulums.
Black mamba is that what they call you there in diaspora. They will throw banana on you haha
… she looks like Tasila before marriage, so beautiful.
@Kaizar Zulu is a very uneducated individual is a dull mind and stays shallow, he has never seen the world in a real sense. Zulu, you live with us on this planet but you’re not better off than anyone else opinion wise on simple and complicated issues. All what you do is open your mouth before thinking. I have seen more bananas here more than those I saw when I travelled through Zambia. They eat them more than you with your unhealthy being.
If being educated means being liar and arrogant like hh, then I would rather be my uneducated self. Black mamba it is strange that you appear angry all because I genuinely don’t know this skinny lady and don’t find her attractive. We all have individual tastes. If you find her attractive then so be it. But i don’t
She is beautiful. And I love that both Zambians have completely no slave names. Mulendema I ve never heard before despite my having been brought up in Mpika Chinsali and later Kalabo
We all have different tastes and likes. Mine happen to be big curvy women. Ntofu ntofu. I am african and don’t find skinny women attractive. Small boys go for small girls.
Who said Africans dont find skinny women attractive? What a lie!
I am african and I don’t. Diasporans don’t count because they are brain washed to hate everything about themselves
