Nairobi Woman Rep. Esther Passaris Tweet on Indecent Dressing Angers Kenyans Online

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris angered a section of Kenyans online after she defended her dressing, which was considered 'indecent.'
In a tweet days after she was highly criticized online for wearing a see-through black maxi dress, Passaris noted that she is not ashamed of her beauty, adding that she was sent to the world without clothes.
“God sent me into the world without clothes who am I to be ashamed of my perfect being? Those with sin see my nakedness. Those redeemed by the blood of Our Saviours Jesus Christ see a beautiful child of God made perfect in His image. #NakedSoul #UnconditionalLove #IAmHisChild,” tweeted Passaris.
Online users slammed the politician for trying to use God's name to justify indecent dressing.
Here are some of the reactions;
@OokoAmimo said:" Whatever English you use. There is no justification for being naked in the public."
@Frankayub noted:"Don't tag Jesus in your ratchet/ debauchery."
@NzimbiHenry tweeted:"Thank you one term women rep."
@ayatollasly1 noted:"And this is how the cookie begins to crumble,
Quoting God as justification for dressing immorally, Where does she think she is,garden of eden."
@Absent_Morris posed:"You do know you sound lame than a teenage girl going through teenage crisis? Smh."
@WMutunga stated: "Don’t play God. You don’t own God."

Nilikuona ukijitahidi kusema lugha ya asili yako ya Gigikuyu siku ya leo. Ulitoa sababu za msingi zilizofanya wengi wasijifunze au kujua lugha ya asili yao. Yote uliyosema na ya kweli kabisa.
Umesema utajitahidi kujua lugha ya Gigikuyu. Kama unataka mwalimu wa kukufundisha lugha hii, mimi niko tayari kukufundisha bila kukutoza hata senti moja. MWUMBAJI MKUU alitupatia uwezo wa kujifunza kitu chochoe mradi uwe tayari na pia hamu ya kujifunza.

One super great way of knowing a woman who has nothing else to offer in terms of character except for her body is the manner in which she dresses. Lack of self esteem / confidence is the only reason why some women wear provocatively because they absolutely have nothing else they can show the world except their butt, thighs or in extreme cases, p#**y. Many don’t know but the world will keep quiet or even applaud them they quietly disrespect them. I have absolutely zero respect for any woman who wears seductively and whether she likes it or not, she remains a sexual object to me .... to “unpeel and eat” in my imagination. Why lie?

Nikosoe ukipenda, lakini mwanadada huyu,kiongozi huyu ama mama wa Kaunti ya Nairobi ni kati ya wale waenezaye ukahaba. Sasa inaibuka wazi kwamba, Esther Passaris ana chepe chepe za ukahaba katika misuli yake. Tazama miguu hio ilivyo jibwaga bwaga kama mgomba wa ndizi uliokosa maji kwa karne nzima. Kama kweli ana mme, sababu yake ya kuwaonyesha miguu ilioparara kama segenge iliyo ota kwenye unyevu nyevu danguroni, au vyumba vya Malaya. Kuwa mtu mzima au kiongozi katika jamii kunamaanisha kwamba, ni lazima uajibike hasa kwa watoto na vijana wetu. Sijawahi kuunga mkono upepetaji wa wasichana na wanawake.Kilichofanya mababa zetu kuchonga chonga, au kung'oa sehemu hio muhimu kwa mwanamke ni kwa sababu walielewa kinaga ubaga kuwa, ndicho kilichowafanya wanawake kutanga tanga ovyo ovyo wakitafuta suluhisho. Kwa Esther Passaris, mkongwe ambaye nyege zake zimekosa ukuta wa kusimamisha ulimwengu wake, yuahitaji kung'olewa kiungo hicho chote ili atulie. Na Passaris hayuko peke yake. Tembelea kongamano za Wakenya hapa kaama vile kanisani, sherehe za harusi na zinginezo na utashangaa. Utashangazwa na vile mke wa mtu, mchana mchana hadharani, machweo ya wanaume wale wengine, anavyoweza kuchipuza matiti yake ikabanuliwa wazi wazi kama malenge mawili meusi. Kweli ni mmewe aliyemruhusu kuyaanika matiti yake yamezewe mate na mazingaombwe mengine? Na wasichana wetu je? Wazazi kweli wanamruhusu avae nguo zinazofikia mle juu ya magoti, matiti yake yaliyo machanga yakichomoza kifuani na kusukuma nguo ya kichungi chungi hivi. Kmama ni mtindo wa mavazi ya siku hizi, ni sawa. Lakini binti zangu wanaelewa ipasavyo: tuendapo nao pahali popote, lazima wavae nadhifu, na kistarabu. Wakiwa na marafiki zao, sitaki kujua anachofanya huko kwani naelewa msisimko unaowabandua bandua vijana wetu. Lakini mke wa mtu, ole wangu!

Passaris if you are woman enough and feel justified to your dressing your choice why dont you just prove it overly more by walking and politicking in the streets of Nairobi barely naked without being ashamed as you purport.Display to the public your beautiful particulars openly then we can ascertain that you're really advocating women to go commando and show their beauty for the spiritual eyes and earthly eyes to see.Nice role modeller.

Probably those who criticized her missed the context in which the dress was donned. If she was swimming, would she be expected to be fully clothed? From the angle, it looks like it was some fashion event and I think the dress may have just been Okay

@Mlachake...jamani, that honesty!! Left me aghast, ati: "I have absolutely zero respect for any woman who wears seductively and whether she likes it or not, she remains a sexual object to me .... to “unpeel and eat” in my imagination. Why lie?" Gosh, the eyes of guys will translate very differently from now on...……….
