There is a boldness in the injustices visited upon others that has become so blunt and lacking in restraint. It is put on display and it is impossible to claim that we have not borne witness to it.

Last week, we watched popular polygamist Musa Mseleku speak harshly of and to his wives, Nokukhanya Yeni Mseleku and Thobile "MaKhumalo" Mseleku, and he previously did to Mbali "MaNgwabe" Mseleku.

In another reality show, we see Thando Dlamuka and Siyacela Dlamuka navigate through a tumultuous marriage plagued with obvious infidelity, emotional and psychological manipulation and patriarchally reinforced abuse by enabling family members.
