Ex-BBA housemate Kyle Duncan Kushabe from Uganda recently posted on his Facebook timeline: "Wedding Ring is the smallest handcuff ever. So think deep. Choose your prison mate carefully and sentence yourself wisely, to avoid a Prison Break.”It’s as interesting as it’s intriguing, no? Yes, interesting because the sarcasm is so punchy, allusion so apt and the joke so benign. But it’s intriguing when you see all the things going on in the world.A fortnight ago, the man who talks faster than an automatic AK47 rifle firing away, Vladmir Putin, walked and faced the cameras, his missus Lyudmila by his side. But unlike in other instances where Lyudmila would be playing first lady, this time she was smiling into the cameras to say "before death do us part, we are part.”The likes of Tiger Woods and a host of celebrities have been in it. This week alone, popularly Kampala radio presenter RS Elvis of Radio One did the unthinkable: Named dozens of men, including their phones numbers and car regs, men he said have been sleeping around with his beautiful wife, Diedre Ivon Kiima.As I was settling in from this RS Elvis madness of calling Kiima a "lap dancer who has failed to stop her pole-dancing antics,” news breaks in that the world’s renowned newspaper mogul, News Corp’s Rupert Murdoch, has filed for divorce from Wendi Deng because their marriage has "irretrievably broken down.”The sanctity of marriage has died at the altar of pomp. Commercialism has ensured that from giveaway to wedding, all is pomp. People spend time in begging meetings disguised as wedding meetings. All they care about is showing the world that they are getting down to it, not that they love each other.With such attitude toward the institution of marriage, there is little surprise where it has all headed. Sadly, the victor-victims will continue to multiply. For the wealthy like Murdoch, Putin, Abramovich, the women are victors. For the poor ones, divorce leaves a scar.Perhaps we can start by cutting the donor dependency syndrome from wedding preps. Couples should try and be self-reliant. Depending on contributions can leave you at the mercy of taxpayers (read family members).However, the purpose of today’s column is a call for those entering marital union to carry a separate briefcase like that Amb. Claver Gatete was carrying yesterday to prepare for divorce. Marriage is fast becoming the most endangered business undertaking. During begging meetings, you will need that special budget for a cushion and a fallback position.In that series, Prison Break, Michael Scorfied (Wentworth Miller) decided to wear a cuff, enter a marriage (jail). But knowing he would eventually break out, he went with mega plans. The tattoo disguise, innocence and all.  He charmed his way into leading a prison break.When men become boys and fight for loveLast week, I promised to write about adults who fight for love. When women do it, we laugh it off. When men become teenagers, we stop and ask questions.Recently, a chap in one of the offices at this building that houses The New Times came to me with a problem.John said he liked a chick who works for Star Times, also at the same building. But his colleague at work also wanted the same bird. The competition degenerated into threats, and the poor girl was torn between going out with John or Mark.Turns out Mark was determined to fight like a pig. He dragged everything related to John down the marshland and told the bird how John was a loser, a bloke etc. When John approached my clinic, I just told him to meet the girl, and tell her he was seeking out. That he would step aside because fighting is not in his best interest.Women love competition, but they are sober, tender-hearted and wouldn’t want to see a man threaten another because of them. To win over the Star Times chick, I urged John to play the innocent man, and she would come full swing to support her. While Mark amplified his threats and backstabbing antics, John retreated and watched. The chick pursued. So he ambushed and as you read this, things are glossy.Never let a woman know you are threatening your rival. Even in your marriage, if you suspect another man, never threaten him. It’s better to reason with them and let your woman see that. Once she sees you resort to threats, you look cheap and insecure. She will dump you.
