I didn't know that but my guess would be because of the way they are treated. Yeesh.

They are? What are the terms?

For the same reason women always do. So they get what they want http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,518465,00.html The Greeks had a word for it. Lysistrata. http://www.sparknotes.com/drama/lysistrata/summary.html

The G10 organization is asking women to boycott sex with their husbands to persuade the government to get its act togther. Sort of a Kenyan 'Lysistrata', (lol) Who knows, maybe it will work.

1) "Women's activist groups in Kenya have slapped their partners with a week-long sex ban in protest over the infighting plaguing the national unity government. The Women's Development Organisation coalition said they would also pay prostitutes to join their strike. The campaigners are asking the wives of the Kenyan president and the prime minister to join in the embargo. They say they want to avoid a repeat of the violence which convulsed the country after the late-2007 elections. Relations between Kenya's coalition partners, led by President Mwai Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga, have become increasingly acrimonious. Now the dispute has moved to the nation's bedrooms." "The campaign is being backed by several other lobby groups, including the Caucus for Women's Leadership and Maendeleo ya Wanawake - a nationwide network of women's groups in rural Kenya."

Originally performed in classical Athens in 411 BC, it is a comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end The Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata convinces the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands as a means of forcing the men to negotiate a peace, a strategy however that inflames the battle between the sexes." "As indicated below (Influence and legacy) modern adaptations of Lysistrata are often femininist and/or pacifist in their aim. The original play however was neither feminist nor unreservedly pacifist. Even when they seemed to demonstrate empathy with the female condition, dramatic poets in classical Athens still reinforced sexual stereotyping of women as irrational creatures in need of protection from themselves and from others."

In May 2009 the women of Kenya decided to boycott sex because they felt that the country's egocentric male leaders should not have time for matters of the flesh when the country is ensnared in economic and political trouble. Therefore, they decided to deny their men sex until they fixed the country's problems. There is an article here - http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hXS0RsO-fBoaspgYMrAHN_dKx8SA - about a man who sued over the sex boycott.

Kenyan men are notorious for their infidelity, so who could blame them?

AIDS?
