No laila, heʻoiaʻiʻo anei i ko mākou wā he wahine ikaika ka wahine nāwaliwali? No ke aha i komo ai kahi kaikamahine ikaika i ke kanaka ma kona mau lima? ʻAʻoleʻo ia ma keʻano maoli, akā, akā,ʻoiai e hiki nō i kekahi ke'ōlelo hou "e kau a puni kou'ā'ī". ʻOiaʻiʻo,ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi ke'ōlelo me ka pololei loaʻoiaʻiʻo kēia. Aʻo kēlā mau kānaka maoli: ikaika, koa, koa, a hopohopoʻole e noho ana, aia wale nō nā poʻeʻeleʻele? Ke kānalua nei au inā he maikaʻi. I kēlā me kēia o kākou i ke ola, aia nā kānaka likeʻole, nā makahiki a me nā statuses'ē aʻe, nā kūlana o kaʻohana, akā ua hālāwai mau - no laila makemake wau e manaʻoʻaʻole i pau nā mea a pau. Eia naʻe,ʻaʻole e hiki ke hōʻoleʻia ka uluʻana o ka māhele o nā kāne i hoʻohālikelikeʻia me nā kaikamahine. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, a pēlā "no nā kaikamāhine heʻumi e like me nā'ikepilihelu"ʻikeʻoe i ka nui o nā kāne. A ponoʻoe e kāpae i kēia mau meaʻona a me nā meaʻona lama, he mau kāne me ka nohonaʻole. A pehea e koe? ʻO nā meaʻoi aʻe,ʻo wai? I ka manawa ma mua, e hoʻomakaʻia ke kaua maoli ma waena o nā wāhine no nā kāne maʻamau. Pehea e hikiʻole ai i ka wahine ke lilo i mea ikaika?
ʻAe, a ināʻaʻohe'ahamele, no ke aha e hanaʻia ai kēia mau hana? No ke aha e hoʻonāwaliwali ai nā kānaka, e haʻalele i ka laina ma waena o nā kāne? No ke aha e lilo ai nā wāhine i mea ikaika a hopohopo, inā ma mua o ka hikiʻana iā lākou ke noho i ka home, kālai i ke keʻa a hānai i nā keiki he nui?
Keʻike neiʻoe i ka inoa o nā kānaka? "ʻO kā lākou hakakā - ua holo lākou i loko." ʻO ka mea i hala loa nei, ua haʻaluluʻia ke ao holoʻokoʻa ma lalo o nā hoʻoikaika kipi, me nā hae a me nā hae e mele ana e makemake lākou i ke kaulike o nā wāhine. He aha ka mea hoʻokahi wale nō wahine e pono ai! ʻO nā wāhine i pili i nā lole a me nāʻaʻahu maʻamau e kau i ko lākou pume a uwahihi i loko o ke aniani kamepiula, e hoʻoikaika i ka uluʻana i kaʻoihana aʻaʻole hoʻi e pili pū me nā kāne. Ua makemake mākou e ikaika a kūʻokoʻa -ʻo ia ka mea. ʻOiai,ʻoiaʻiʻo,ʻaʻole e pono i kēia wahine ke hoʻokae i kēia hoʻomanaʻo i ka manaʻo:ʻo ka hapanui o mākou e makemake ana e lilo i wahine hānai, palupalu a haʻahaʻa iki i nā kāne. E hilinaʻi iā lākou, e hilinaʻi iā lākou. No kaʻike e hiki iā lākou ke hilinaʻi ma kēia'ūhā ikaika o kā lākou kanaka, a ma hope o ia e hiki ai iāʻoe ke hūnā mau i nā hoʻololi o ke ola.
Malia paha,ʻo kēia mauʻanoʻano likeʻole a me nā hana o ke Komohana i hana ai iā mākou, a hoʻololi i ke kāne a me ka wahine ma nā wahi. ʻOiai kekahi meaʻoluʻolu'ē aʻe: ma hea kahi i hoʻomaka ai i kēia mau hana ma ka Komohana? Eia naʻe, e mau ana nā hana maʻamau, a keʻoluʻolu nei mākou i ka hoʻopiliʻana iā lākou a ho'āʻo iā mākou iho, me ka mahalo i keʻano. A, he mea kupanaha, i kekahi manawaʻo mākou ke manaʻoʻiʻo maoli e lilo kēia i mea hauʻoli iā mākou!
ʻO ia ke kumu i lilo ai ke kanaka i mea nāwaliwali? Eia keʻano o ka nīnau ma keʻano kino o kāna puʻupuʻu - heʻanoʻokoʻa loa kēia, akā he mea paʻakikī keʻikeʻana i kahi kanaka'ōpio me ka pila "nani" (e like me ke kaikamahine e nānāʻole iā ia iho - akā,ʻo kēia keʻano pilikino a ke kanaka). Ke kamaʻilio nei mākou no ka nāwaliwali o ka pono, a me kaʻuhane. ʻAuhea nā kānaka palaualelo a "paʻi" iʻole i loaʻa i kekahi mea i loko o ko lākou ola, aʻo ka mea nui aku paha,ʻaʻole lākou makemake e hana. No ke aha? Inā ma mua, aia nā mākua aloha e hāʻawi i nā mea a pau e pono ai. A laila, aia kekahi wahine nāna e mālama i nā haʻawina home a pau a loaʻa i ka manawa e hoʻonui i kānaʻoihana ma mua o kāna kāne. A no ke aha mai ke kumu hou? Ua like ia me kekahiʻano o ka maʻi kino. Ua hele ke kanaka i kēia manawa,ʻaʻole i hala: aʻo ka hewa o ia ka ho'āʻo e kali nei iā lākou ma hope o kēlā me kēia manawa o ke ola. Iā lākou hoʻi, a he nui paha, akā,ʻo kā mākou mau mea e paʻakikī ai iā lākou.
ʻO ka wahine ikaika he hopena o ka pukaʻana mai o nā kānaka nāwaliwali. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, pono e ikaika kekahi. Ua hoʻomaka a hoʻomaka paha, me kaʻoiaʻiʻo, ua pau kaʻohana i ka waiwai nui loa o ka hui. Eia hou, ua hoʻomaka ka hopena o ka hoʻonāukiuki i ka paleʻana i ka hana paʻa o nā wāhine - ua hoʻomaka kekahi e nānā i kekahi ma kaʻaoʻao e hoʻomālamalama i nā hana maʻamau i nā lā a pau. ʻO kekahi mea me kahi poʻo i komo i kahi hoʻokipa hou a hoʻopoina i kaʻohana. Aʻo ka pinepine o kēia "kanaka" he kanaka ia,ʻoiai uaʻoi aku konaʻano i ka nāwaliwali aʻo ka manaʻo o kaʻohanaʻaʻole iʻoi aku ka ikaika e like me nā wāhine ma kahi haʻahaʻa. A koe wale nō, i nā makahiki he 30-35 i ka wā i wāwahiʻia, meʻelua mau keiki ma kona mau lima a me nā makahiki heʻelua o kaʻike ma ka mea kanu lāʻau, he paʻakikī ke hoʻomaopopo: he aha e hana ai? Aʻo ka mea pono e ola, pono e hānai i nā keiki ma nā wāwae. No laila ua hoʻokau ka wahine i ka mea kaumaha iā ia iho, hele akula eʻimi i kahi hopenaʻoi aʻe. A ma hope o ia,ʻaʻole ia he kanaka lapuwale kipi, akā he keiki aloha palupalu i hoʻolohe iā ia i kēlā me kēia hui a lawelaweʻo ia ma ka'īlio'īlio. ʻO ka hoʻohana waleʻana ia meaʻaʻole ia he mea pono'ī mai iā ia, no konaʻanoʻeleʻele a nele i ka hana. Uaʻike lāua kekahi i kekahi,ʻo ia mau kāne: he wahine ikaika a he nāwaliwali, he wahine palupalu a he kanaka ikaika. Akā wale nō i nā makahiki o ka mua i lilo hou aʻoi aku, akāʻole. Ināʻaʻole, ua waiho waleʻia ka wahine,ʻoiaiʻo kaʻike o ka kaumaha o kona'ā'ī i keʻano o ua kanaka lā, he kaumaha nui ia.
ʻAʻole makemake kekahi kanaka e hana nāwaliwali, akā ua makemakeʻo ia e ola maikaʻi. No laila, hele akula ua kanaka nei iā Alfonso i ka mea nui, liloʻo ia i wahine hoʻokamakama i loko o ka lole. A no ka loaʻaʻana o kekahi o nā wāhine i ke kālā a hiki i ka nohoʻana me ka pilikiaʻole. A iā ia, me keʻano hoʻokipa a me keʻano maikaʻi, me kahi'ānela'ānela a me nā pale pilikino, he keruba, pono iā ia e hana,ʻaʻole e hoʻomanawanui iā ia iho. Ua maʻiʻo ia, he keruba. Ua makemakeʻo ia i kahi olaʻoluʻolu - a liloʻo ia i kau kālā no ka wahine ikaika a naʻaupō. E hele a hoʻomaopopo: he maikaʻi anei ka ikaika, i hiki ai iāʻoe ke hoʻolimalima i nā makahiki hope loa me ke kanaka nāwaliwali?
Ma hope o ka ikaika o ka wahine ikaikaʻole ka wahine ikaika: he paʻakikī ka hoʻouka, a he paʻakikī e pili pū me lākou, nā luna. No laila ua hoʻololiʻia: makemake lākou e kūʻokoʻa me nā kāne - ua lilo lākou i poʻe kūʻokoʻa me nā kāne. A ke ola nei na kanaka ia makou. I kēia manawa, aia kahi kaikamahine ikaika e halihali ana i kahi koa ma kona mau lima, eʻai ana mai kahi pūpū, e like me ke keiki. ʻAʻole i nā manawa a pau, akāʻo ka hopena. He mea minamina no ka manawa hikiʻole ke hoʻihoʻiʻia a hāʻule i nā manawa o nā naita a me nā wāhine, i mea e leʻaleʻa ai i ka hui o nā kāne maʻamau me ka ikaika a me ka nui!
