1 | Zambia: Porn Video Sparks Debate on Gender, Culture and Morality | Zambia: Lahatsary Vetaveta Niteraka Adihevitra Momba ny Kolontsaina, Ny Miralenta ary ny Fahamendrehana |
2 | Recently a video clip of a young female student at one of Zambia's expensive colleges, the Zambia Centre for Accountancy College (ZCAS), having sex with her boyfriend surfaced on a hardcore pornography website (link and site name withheld) and went viral among Zambian netizens who liberally shared the link. | Nivoaka tao amina vohikalam-betaveta iray, ka nalaza vetivety teo amin'ny mpiserasera Zambiana izay nifampizara ny rohy ny lahatsarim-betaveta nataona mpianatra vavy iray teo amin'ny sekoly iray anisan'ny lafo saram-pianarana indrindra ao Zambia, Zambia Centre for Accountancy College (ZCAS) na (Kolejy) Ivontoerana Zambiana Fianarana Toebola, tamin'ny sipany. |
3 | Zambia is a culturally conservative and Christian nation in which such a video clip is considered immoral and also illegal under the Penal Code Act Chapter 87 of the Laws of Zambia, which makes it an offense to make and distribute obscene materials. | Manana kolontsaina mitana ny nentin-drazana sy firenena kristiana i Zambia ka ny rakitsary tahaka itony dia heverina ho tsy mendrika sy tsy ara-dalàna araka ny Lalàna momba ny Heloka Bevava andininy faha-87 ao amin'ny lalàna Zambiana, izay mametraka ho fandikan-dalàna ny manatontosa sy mizara zava-betaveta. |
4 | Offenders face a five year jail sentence upon conviction. | Mety higadra dimy taona ny mpandika lalàna aorian'ny didy fanamelohana. |
5 | The case has generated a lot of debate on blogs, Facebook and Twitter. | Niteraka adihevitra maro tamin'ny bolongana, Facebook, Twitter ity raharaha ity. |
6 | Zambian blogger Lwanga Mwilu brought out the gender dimension to the debate. | Nampiditra ny resaka miralenta anaty adihevitra ny mpamaham-bolongana Zambiana Lwanga Mwilu. |
7 | The female subject in the video, who is apparently related to a top Zambian politician, has been the one who has received the most condemnation. | Ilay vehivavy ao amin'ny lahatsary, izay heverina ho manana fifandraisana amina mpanao politika ambony Zambiana, no nahazo ny fanamelohana be indrindra. |

11 | When it comes to issues of “morality”, there is quite something to be said about male immunity against being tried and condemned in the courts of public opinion…and women's lack of such immunity. | Raha vao ny resaka “fahamendrehana” no lohahevitra, Misy ny zavatra azo ambara amin'ny lehilahy tsimatimanota eo anatrehan'ny fitsaran'ny fomba fihevitry ny olona…sy ny tsy fisian'izany tsimatimanota izany raha ny vehivavy no resahina. |
12 | And so when consensual sex finds itself being categorised as a scandal, you can be sure you will hear the woman's name much longer after her partner has even forgotten he was ever part of the case. | Ka rehefa zavatra nifanarahana teo amin'ny roa tonta no heverina ho fanafintohinana, dia azo antoka fa ho tsaroana hatrany ny anaran'ilay vehivavy na dia efa nanadino ny raharaha niraisana aza ilay niaraka taminy. |
13 | I suppose some context is in order here. | Heveriko fa mila apetraka kely ny toe-draharaha. |
14 | For several days now, Zambian cyberspace has been abuzz with reactions to a “sex tape”, featuring a college couple from the Zambia Centre for Accountancy Studies (ZCAS) that has been leaked and circulated online. | Andro maromaro izany dia niraondraona noho ny resaka “raozy mavokely” (sarimihetsika X) ny tontolon'ny aterineto Zambiana, ahitana mpisipa mpianatra avy ao amin'ny Ivontoerana Zambiana Fianarana Toebola (ZCAS) izay tafavoaka ary nivezivezy an-tserasera. |
15 | The comments, which are well in their hundreds or even thousands if you count across different online platforms, are varied yet their recurrent theme is the censuring of the young woman. | Isan-karazany ny resaka isan-karazany mahatratra an-jatony na anarivony aza raha isaina avokoa ny sehatra an-tserasera rehetra fa ny iraisany dia ny fanivanana ilay zatovovavy. |
16 | She has been called lots of names, some of which even professional hookers would take offence at. | Nahazo ny anarana samihafa mihitsy ratovovavy, ka mety hahatafintohina ny mpivarotena matihanina mihitsy aza. |
17 | I went through some readers' comments on a few sites and I was so struck by the inequality in apportioning blame; the woman was taking all the flak, lots of it, while there was heavy silence about her partner. | Novakiako ny hevitry ny mpamaky tamin'ny vohikala vitsivitsy fa tena zendana tamin'ny fifanalaviran'ny andraikitra nomena aho; ratovovavy no iandronan'ny rihitra rehetra, nefa tsy nisy niteny mihitsy na iray aza ny tamin'ilay niaraka taminy. |
18 | It was as though she was all alone in the video. | Tahaka ireny hoe ratovovavy irery no tao anatin'ilay lahatsary. |
19 | Mwilu also took a swipe at the intolerance of the women against their fellow women caught up in adultery-related issues: | Nahamarika ny tsy fahazakan'ny vehivavy mahita vehivavy hafa tratra nijangajanga raha oharina amin'ny niaraka taminy ihany koa i Mwilu : |
20 | Sometimes women seem to be the most intolerant of fellow women's supposed failings. | Matetika ny vehivavy no tena tsy laitra raha hanakiana ny vehivavy hafa lazaina ho lavo. |
21 | Consider concurrent sexual partnerships and what happens when some married men are discovered by their wives. | Hevero ny olona iray manana sipa maromaro sy izay mitranga rehefa tratran'ny vadiny (mampiaraka amin'olon-kafa) ireny lehilahy efa manambady ireny. |
22 | A married man is discovered to be cheating by the wife, she goes after the woman he is cheating with, roughs her up, calls her all those colourful names and leaves her with a stern warning of what she will do to her if she dares go near her husband again. | Tratran'ny vadiny mifandamoro amin'ny vehivavy hafa ralehilahy, tonga dia eny amin'ny vehivavy niaraka tamin'ny vadiny no alehan-dramatoa, manafay azy, miteny azy amin'ny anaran-tsamihafa dia ilaozany amin'izay amin'ny fampitandremana hahazo ny mafimafy kokoa raha mbola mahasahy miaraka amin'ny vadiny ihany. |
23 | Then she goes back home, cooks for her husband, cleans up after him, laughs at his dry jokes and just pretty much preoccupies herself indulging her amnesia. | Avy eo izy mody any an-trano, mahandro hanina ho an'ny vadiny, manadio ny trano, mikakakaka amin'ny vazivazy maina ataom-badiny dia manohy ny zavatra maro karakarainy mamela ny fiesonany. |
24 | On Twitter, one tweep, @tatendaprobert, wonders where the women's groups are as the girl continues being attacked for her role in the video: | Ao amin'ny Twitter, mpisiokantsera iray, @tatendaprobert, manontany tena hoe lasa aiza ny fikambanam-behivavy raha mbola voakiana tamin'izay nataony tao amin'ny lahatsary ihany ilay tovovavy: |
25 | @lwangamwilu I surely think it is unfair for society to treat her like that where are women groups: WfC(Women for Change, an outspoken gender advocate NGO)? | @lwangamwilu Tena tsy rariny kosa ny an'ny fiaraha-monina tamin'ny nataony tamin'ilay tovovavy fa lasa aiza ny fikambanam-behivavy: WfC(Women for Change, Vehivavy mitaky ny fiovana, ONG mpiaro ny vehivavy)? |
26 | Another tweep, @missbwalya, denounced the hypocrisy of women who berate a man's girlfriend when he is caught cheating: | Mpisiokantsera hafa indray, @missbwalya, manameloka ny fihatsarambelatsihin'ny vehivavy mamely ny sipan'ny vadiny tratra namitaka azy: |
27 | @lwangamwilu ZCAS story has made it all the way out here too & the response is the same - Woman affixed w/ a scarlet letter. | @lwangamwilu malaza hatrany ny tantaran'ny ZCAS hatramin'izao ary mitovy daholo ny valinteny azo - voamarika ny vy mahamay ilay vehivavy. |
28 | @lwangamwilu wrote: | @lwangamwilu manoratra: |
29 | The 1% where the guy is mentioned is largely about how good he was in the video. | Ny 1% mba milaza ilay zatovolahy dia milaza ny tsara vitany tao amin'ilay lahatsary. |
30 | Says much about much. | Milaza zavatra betsaka izany. |

32 | On Facebook, Richard Banda Lcgi Meiz started a campaign which he hoped would result in a petition that would be presented to the authorities to save her, ostensibly from prosecution: | Ao amin'ny Facebook, nanokatra hetsika fanangonan-tsonia antenainy hanavotra ilay tovovavy mba tsy hotsaraina Richard Banda Lcgi Meiz: |
33 | ”SAVE THE ZCAS LADY CAMPAIGN” - Let's sign a pettition and see how many love justice for the poor lady. | ”SAVE THE ZCAS LADY CAMPAIGN” - (Avoty ilay vehivavin'ny Zcas) Andao hanangon-tsonia ijerena hoe firy no mitady ny rariny ho an'ilay tovovavy mahantra. |
34 | If you say “YES” comment on this thread by just one word “YES” and post. | Raha miteny ianao hoe “ENY” amin'izy ity dia teny iray ihany soratana “ENY” dia alefaso. |
35 | Lets save the lady and we will petition the authorities to save the lady. | Avoty ilay tovovavy dia hangataka amin'ny mpitondra isika hanavotra ilay tovovavy. |
36 | On Tumfweko, an online news site, which reported the story, a response to the story by someone calling himself Zambia read: | Ao amin'ny vohikalam-baovao an-tserasera iray antsoina hoe Tumfweko, izay nitatitra ilay tantara misy valin-tantara napetrak'olona iray milaza ny tenany ho Zambia mivaky toy izao: |
37 | Ba zedi, ubu fontini mwa chilamo [Zambians you are too sleepy]. | Ba zedi, ubu fontini mwa chilamo [Renoka loatra ianareo ry Zambiana]. |
38 | If youve never filmed yourself with your girlfriend, i guess ure still living in the 20s when a camera was hard to find. | Raha tsy mbola nandrakitra an-tsary anao tamin'ny sipanao mihitsy ianao dia mieritreritra aho fa mbola niaina tany amin'ny taompolo 1920, mbola sarotra ny nahitana fakantsary tamin'izany fotoana izany, ianao. |
39 | That video was not meant to become public, as you can clearly see, it was filmed from a webcam, if you know what that is. | Tsy natao ho hitan'ny besinimaro iny lahatsary iny, araka ny ahitanao azy tsara ao, noraiketina tamin'ny webcam iny, raha fantatrao hoe inona izany. |
40 | Which children are those? | Karazan'ankizy manao ahoana moa ireo? |
41 | I doubt that there are any 7 year olds at ZCAS. | Misalasala aho raha misy zaza 7 taona ao amin'ny ZCAS. |
42 | Society has always had it bad and good sides, nothing is new. | Mandray azy amin'ny lafy ratsy sy tsarany ny fiaraha-monina, tsy misy zava-baovao. |
43 | If our parents dint have sex, we wouldnt be here. | Raha tsy nanao firaisam-batana ny ray aman-drenintsika tsy teto isika. |
44 | Infact, back in the days when there was no AIDS, people were much more naughty. | Raha ny tena marina, tamin'ny fotoana tsy nisian'ny SIDA, mbola jejojejo kokoa ny olona. |
45 | Dont make this seem like such a big thing. | Aza dia atao mahabe eritreritra izany. |
46 | Dnt blow this out of proportion. | Aza itarina ny toe-draharaha. |
47 | They are not “actors” and no money changed hands. | Tsy “mpiantsehatra” ry zareo ary tsy nisy ny vola niova tanana. |
48 | The only person who could have made a b(u)ck from that is the guy who stole the video and uploaded it onto the net, which i also highly doubt. | Ny hany tokana mety ho nahazo tombony tamin'ity dia izay nangalatra ilay lahatsary ka nampakatra azy an-tserasera, izay mbola isalasalako ihany koa. |
