I was referring a certain other boardite who I was telling to GDAB to a <span style="font-weight: bold">specific</span> discussion that was and still is on the board:

<span style="font-weight: bold">I did not start that discussion or chose the title.</span> I do not approve of the term and I believe that I have made that <span style="font-weight: bold">crystal clear</span>.

You breed a horse, dog or a cow not a woman.

If we don't respect ourselves, how do we expect others to respect us. The reaction is a case of the gentleman doth protest too much. Notice I have ignored his comments.

My POV is clear. Who doesn't like it can lump it.

Re: Video: Yendi and Chino respond to critics

Someone, I don't recall who it was, asked how could Cindy have not known about Rita when she was at Hope Road. Rita and the kids were NOT living at Hope Road. I didn't respond then as I wanted independent confirmation. Rita and the children were not living at Hope Road:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Also in 1972, Rita gave birth to another son, whom the Marleys called Stephen. With this new addition, the<span style="font-weight: bold"> family moved out of Kingston to a small house in Bull Bay, East of the city. Significantly, Bob often preferred to stay in Kingston at Blackwell's house at 56 Hope Road, instead of returning to Bull Bay with Rita and the children </span> each night. This time spent apart from Rita afforded Bob the opportunity to begin his string of extramarital affairs.</div></div>

Source: Bob Marley: A Biography

Rita also confirms this in her book.

Also, I can't find part one of this 3 part interview in which Cindy speaks about her relationship with Bob and other matters.

Part 2 http://jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/2.../ent/ent3.html

Part 3 http://jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/2.../ent/ent1.html

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> When Bob and I got together, uptown girls weren't going out with Rastafarians and they certainly weren't having babies for them, so we'd go out every week - you know that, I know that and it's has been widely acknowledged since then. But it wasn't just about that, it was Uptown coming together with Downtown and Rastafarianism emerging as a very strong subculture in Jamaica at that time and all that it meant to Jamaica and still means today.

&quot;So what is interesting about it too is where it has taken me in Jamaica. I guess under normal circumstances I would be considered a white person, even though I have black blood and I'm mixed - I don't know how much it shows - but in terms of my association with Bob, I had an entry into every echelon of society and the people would immediately feel if I go into Trench Town that they can relate to me, because if I could have related to Bob, then they immediately know something about me.&quot;

&quot;Have you done that?&quot; I asked.

&quot;Yes. I've been everywhere, everywhere, and feel very comfortable in so doing. I don't feel threatened at all to go anywhere because, to be honest, really all I have ever received from Jamaican people is great love and affection. And I understand very clearly how that has come about and it is because - a great portion of it - because of my relationship with Bob, because there is Damian who still keeps that union alive, keeps it vibrant in peoples' minds, that our relationship was such that we produced a wonderful young man.&quot;

&quot;Wasn't it difficult at times?&quot;

&quot;It was difficult at the time, because the doctrine was very much very focused in those days and there was a lot of intolerance. And I really was the antithesis of everything Bob should have been looking for in a woman, because you have to parade yourself on a stage and for bodybuilding it's a bikini, not even a one piece, so there's maximum exposure.

&quot;So that was definitely frowned on and the make-up--you know, the whole Rasta culture is all for 'matroness' and modesty. The emphasis was very much on that at that time, so we were kind of on the furthest ends of the spectrum that either one of us could be.

&quot;But we had certain things in common, - a love of physical fitness, ambition, absolute desire to succeed at whatever it is we're doing. We had a lot in common in terms of our character, so we managed to find common ground.&quot;

&quot;And the 'uptown' perspective?&quot;

&quot;I kind of just set it aside. I kind of just created my own circle of friends and gravitated towards people who didn't have a problem with it. I certainly wasn't looking to force myself into any area where I felt there was major disapproval. I mean, what's the point in that? I do know that a number of mothers backed their daughters into a corner and said: 'Now listen, you see what Cindy Breakspeare has done, don't even think about it!'&quot; she says, laughing heartily.

&quot;Funny enough, at the time, it just felt the right thing to do. You know what I am saying? It just felt like the right thing to do. It's not a dress rehearsal, it is your life you're living, so if you're just going around doing what comes naturally, what feels right, whatever, then that's it.&quot;</div></div>

It is a matter of record that Bob pursued her...she didn't pursue him. Just setting the record straight.

This is what someone who was there at the time and Cindy had to say about it:

<object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0FVZWU4ino8"></param> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0FVZWU4ino8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"> </embed></object>

and Bob's own words confirm it:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">From the very first time I rested my eyes on you boy
My heart said follow through
But I know now that I'm way down on your line
But the waiting feel is fine
So don't cheat me like a puppet on a string
Cause I know I do my thing
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know where you're gonna go

<span style="font-weight: bold">It's been three years since I've been knocking at your door
And I can still knock some more</span>
Ooh boy, ooh boy
Is it feasible?
I wanna know now
For I can knock some more

She shed plenty of tears. So many she chose to name her lifestory from a title which most identifies the shield she used in order to trod the course she was destined to live out.

Although Rita chose not to place blame on her husband’s foibles, and perceived indiscretions in sleeping with many women, she details a litany of “one-night stands” she attributes to the many children he has fathered.

The widow gets the last laugh to laugh at all of the women who claimed him temporarily. Most of all she fires back at a few by referring to them as “whores.”

Esther Anderson gets the brunt of her ire when she explained how the publicist, hired by Chris Blackwell moved in to Kingston to become more like a mattress for Marley, than a buttress to his music and message.

The Trench Town alum did not go down the list of women who desired her husband. But she mentioned a princess from Gabon, Africa named Pascalene Bongo who thought her royalty might have dethroned Bob’s queen.

<span style="font-weight: bold">Rita wrote that many beauty queens from various places, “miss this and miss that” were offered as prizes to pose with the reggae legend.</span>

The wife of Bob Marley also spews poison on the pageant princess Cindy Breakspeare who was crowned Miss World. <span style="font-weight: bold">The queen of reggae takes no hostages in defining the beauty as raised to pimp men with money</span>. In explaining the nurturing of some women raised in perceived “affluent communities” of Jamaica, <span style="font-weight: bold">Rita made no bones in explaining how Breakspeare moved in as a tenant of Island Records founder Chris Blackwell to position herself as closeasthis to the reggae star.</span> Cindy is the mother Bob Marley’s youngest son, Damian.

Re: me neva really wan fi jine een butttttttttttt

Still reading your comments but wanted to pause to say Cindy has said a number of times that she and her brother went to live at Hope Road when Chris owned it after her mother kicked them out of the house...long before Bob came on the scene up there.


....and this was from the same article from which you quoted:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Actually, Rita’s account parallels Don Taylor’s chapter in a book the manager penned called “Marley &amp; Me.”

Taylor wrote that Cindy’s family had fallen on hard times when she was a young girl. Perhaps it was the need for security that the beauty exploited her gift. </div></div>

If she the family had fallen on such hard times, how did they afford to send her to Immaculate Conception?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
“Cindy closed her eyes”… when Bob slept with her friends Virginia Burke and her sister Nancy, Taylor wrote. As a matter of fact, Taylor said he lost all respect for Cindy when he realized she tolerated the disrespectful behaviour from her Rastafarian lover.

But Rita’s said her name defined her with sin (Cin-dy).</div></div>

The guy I met who knows her Canadian cousins had unflattering things to say about her and her brother during their teens. I am not for a minute trying to say she was pure as the driven snow...but clearly Bob did misrepresent himself as free, single and disengaged and many who were there said that he pursued her...not the reverse.

<span style="font-weight: bold">I wasn't there so I can only go by what those who were there have said</span> and, so far, I have not seen any reports to the contrary. I did hear that Chris felt that she would be better for Bob's public image and career than Rita due to the colour class thing. Don't recall where I saw it ....perhaps in Bob manager's book.

I think we'll all agree that this is the bottom line.

[Tropicana]

Re: me neva really wan fi jine een butttttttttttt

You mean Kymani Marley? Okay so are you saying that Cindy is a liar?

She has more than one or two times said that she didn't know Bob was married until she was pregnant. Apparently, this is repeated in the documentary. (I haven't seen it.)

She has also said that Bob paid her entry fee to Miss World and paid for her pageant wardrobe.

Re: me neva really wan fi jine een butttttttttttt

I posted an interview in which Bob was asked point blank if he was married to any of the I Threes. He lied and said &quot;No....I am free single and disengaged but I have LOTS of girls&quot;. In another interview I can't find but which I remember vividly, he was again asked point blank about Rita and he lied and said she was his sister.

That's a pretty clear denial don't you think?

If in his own words he is knocking on this girl's door for 3 years, isn't that pursuing?

Like I said I wasn't there. If you were then I have to defer to you but it is contrary to what many have said. Also, if Cindy knew he was married, why has sheconsistently lied and said she didn't know?

People have been sold a bill of goods by the slavemasters and nearly 200 years later, they are still buying it hook, line and sinker. It was illegal for slaves to marry and this destroyed the instituttion of marriage in our community and undermined our family units.

I am glad you identified yourself as a man. Somehow when a man says it, people pay more attention to what men say on here.

BTW I like you makabush the more I hear from you.
