This report is written by men trying to scare women into polygamous relationships in the name of shortage of men! It is all selfishly choreographic in nature.
What is that code for mafisi to relocate and spread themselves aimlessly since they are in short supply.To this date no one has been able to influence the gender at birth just theories therefore I do not see the relevance of some of this information
