Some secrets women should know about men
In your pursuit of love and romance, you tend to be somewhat selfish. That’s okay. It happens to everyone.
You have grand dreams and visions of what your ideal relationship is going to look like. You would begin to fantasise about what your dream guy is going to be and what kind of personality he has.
However, have you ever just stopped to think about what it would be like for the guy in this scenario? Sure, you know what you want.
But you might not be aware of the types of efforts that men go through to find love for themselves as well. You shouldn’t make the mistake of not taking the time to understand men.
And if you don’t know where to start in that regard, then this article is going to be perfect for you. Here are a few secrets about men that you might have never realised on your own:
They also have to put up with the risk of rejection
A lot of women like to play the role of the victim a lot whenever they are rejected in romance and love. And that’s normal. It’s okay to feel sad about being rejected. However, it would be foolish to think that men don’t have to suffer through rejection, too. Men have to put up with rejection a lot, considering that they’re the ones who tend to make the initial approach in dating and relationships.
They feel a lot of pressure to be kind to women
Men are always held to a high standard. They are continually being told that they need to conduct themselves like gentlemen. And yes, that is, indeed, how it should be. However, you shouldn’t be so unfair to ignore just how difficult it is. Sometimes, a man can get lambasted by society in such a significant manner for something that a woman would be forgiven instantly for.
They can’t get dates that easily
Sure, women always have to wait around for a man to ask them out. This is especially true for women who aren’t very forward or aggressive in their romantic ways. However, that doesn’t mean that men can get dates left and right. When a man gets rejected, it can be tough for him to find the confidence that he needs to stay persistent in asking girls out.
They feel a lot of pressure to do everything on their own
Men are always touted as the supposedly stronger gender. And that might be true in the physical sense due to biological and anatomical factors. However, that isn’t still going to be the case in an emotional touch. Men are always encouraged to swallow their feelings and pretend like nothing is wrong. And this can be very destructive to a person’s state of mind.
They don’t know how to relate to others, as well as women do
Women are just more empathetic. This is in connection with the previous item on this list. Since men are encouraged to be less emotional, then they don’t get a chance to be in tune with the feelings of other people as well. That means that it can be complicated for them to relate to others.
They aren’t aware of what women want
Men have no clue what women want. Sure. You might think that you don’t understand men. But it’s all the same for them as well. Honestly, they don’t understand women either. They are just as clueless as you would be. Naturally, it would be unfair for you to expect any different from them.
They struggle with always having to take control of a relationship
Men tend to be thrust into leadership positions in the relationship. However, not all people are built to be leaders. And it can be awful for a man who doesn’t have leadership qualities to carry those kinds of expectations from a woman.

Ghana to locally refine its gold starting October 2025 – Sammy Gyamfi
The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Gold Board, Sammy Gyamfi, has announced that plans are far advanced for the establishment of a state-owned gold refinery in the country.
Speaking at the 2025 Minerals and Mining Convention, Mr Gyamfi said the refinery will process locally mined gold into bullion instead of exporting it in its raw state.
According to him, it is unacceptable that Ghana, despite being a leading gold producer in Africa, continues to export raw gold known as dore.
He explained that the Gold Board, working with the Bank of Ghana and local refineries, will from October 2025 begin refining gold locally.
He also disclosed that an ultramodern assay laboratory will be built to ensure international standards in testing gold quality.
Mr Gyamfi noted that the refinery will be wholly state-owned and will help Ghana move away from raw mineral exports to value addition.
This, he said, will boost foreign exchange earnings, create jobs, and position Ghana as a hub for gold refining and jewellery production in Africa.
The CEO stressed that the project forms part of government’s strategy to ensure the country benefits fully from its natural resources and to transform the mining sector into a driver of economic growth.

There is strength in diversity; let’s live in peace – Zanetor Rawlings urges Ghanaians
Member of Parliament for Korle Klottey, Dr. Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings, has urged Ghanaians, especially the youth, to value the peace the country enjoys and to see diversity as a source of strength.
Speaking at the National Youth Conference held at the Pentecost Convention Centre under the theme “Igniting Potential; Inspiring Change”, she warned against being lured into conflicts and divisions fueled by reckless statements from politicians, traditional leaders, religious figures, or academics.
According to her, many young people have no idea what it means to live in a country torn apart by war, and therefore must not take Ghana’s peace for granted.
She stressed that the harmony among different ethnic and regional groups should be protected at all costs, since it is peace that allows citizens to gather freely and safely.
Dr. Zanetor said Ghana’s development depends on embracing diversity and working together.
She urged the youth to tap into this strength so that Ghana would continue to shine as the “Black Star” of Africa and serve as an example for other nations.
She expressed appreciation to the participants for attending the conference and asked for God’s blessings on the country.
