I don’t care if it’s a boy or a girl, as long as it’s not an animal – Actress Manaka Ranaka on her pregnancy

Actress Manaka Ranaka (41) is weeks away from welcoming a new bundle of joy into the world.

Manaka, who plays Lucy Diale on the popular soapie Generations: The Legacy, recently became a gogo as well when her eldest daughter, Katlego, gave birth.

The actress, who is preparing to become a mum yet again, is preparing to go on maternity leave.
Speaking to Daily Sun, the award-winning star said she was looking forward to her child, but motherhood wasn’t anything new to her.

“It’s the same feeling I felt when I had my two daughters, so this experience is nothing new.

“People have been saying they hope I’m carrying a boy, but we’ll see.”
“I look forward to giving birth to a child. I don’t care if it’s a boy or a girl, as long as it’s not an animal,” she chuckled.

The actress doesn’t subscribe to the notion that boys are heirs.
“Boys and girls are equally important and have different functions in society.

“I don’t believe that boys are necessarily better. According to society and culture norms, they’re carriers of legacies. Girls also bring kids into this world,” said Manaka.

“People have been saying they hope I’m carrying a boy, but we’ll see.”

Manaka said she’d be going on maternity leave in a few weeks time, which meant her character Lucy will also disappear for a while. “I’m still working, but will go on leave a few weeks from now. Lucy will also be gone.”

Commenting on the custom, Manaka said she could never see herself adopting it.

“Never! Then when are the kids gonna get the attention they deserve and need if we are busy kneeling for adults that want more attention than the kids they brought into this world?

“Where I come from, children are more important than him and I. Imagine the baby crying her lungs out while mommy is forced to ignore the child, kneeling for daddy to finish eating. Hayi, never. Shem.”

She added that she would “rather be a single mother” than take on the practice, sparking anger among some followers who accused her of being judgmental and urging her to do her research before posting.

They claimed Manaka had misinterpreted the custom and was mocking it.

“What tribe did I mention? It’s okay if you kneel for him, ain’t nothing wrong, nana. It’s your culture, your choice. But mina I won’t and you shouldn’t blame me for (not) accepting patriarchy and its ways,” Manaka responded.
