Does a man handle his personal, family, and social responsibilities with integrity—owning his mistakes, honouring his commitments, and leading through service rather than ego?

AFTER 8 IS AFTER 8: MASCULINITY: What is a Measure of a Man in Today’s Society?

We had quite the conversation last night regarding customary marriages following the Constitutional Court ruling which confirmed that customary marriages are not dissolved when a couple enters a civil marriage and that an ante-nuptial contract concluded after a customary marriage is invalid. Many of you send us many questions about this and other issues related to customary law. This evening we’ll answer some of your questions on customary marriage and also explore a big theme that came through from your messages questioning whether our Constitution and laws are trembling or Westernising our cultures and traditions.

Banning alcohol should not be a prime solution in dealing with
fatalities on S.A’s roads - that’s what some experts are once
again saying.
This follows Transport Minister Barbara Creecy’s statement that
the government plans to reduce the legal blood alcohol driving
limit to zero, effectively banning all alcohol usage for drivers
regardless of the amount consumed.
This is not the first time that this total ban has been proposed, it
was previously rejected by the transport committee in
parliament, although a different legislation was passed focusing
on dealing with corruption in the enforcement of existing laws.

The Congress of South African Trade Unions - COSATU believes
the salaries of South African politicians in public office should
not be increased by the 3.8%, which was announced by
President Cyril Ramaphosa this week.
The trade union federation says these public office bearers
already earn generous packages and an increase sends an
ill-considered message to an increasingly frustrated society of a
political elite that is dangerously out of touch with the lived
realities of ordinary South Africans.
The increase follows the recommendation by the Independent
Commission for Remuneration of Public Office Bearers. The
increase of 3.8% applies to Members of the National Executive,
Members of Parliament, members of provincial executive
councils and members of provincial legislatures.
