Muchiitiko cheAmerica yomugumo yezana ramakore rechi 19, rakanga riri 'kadhi rokuperekedza' - risingafaniri kuvhiringidzwa nerorudzi rwakajeka rwaungafungidzira nhasi - asi panzvimbo pezvo kadhi rakadhindwa rinosetsa iro varume vaizopa kuvakadzi vavaiwana vanokwezva. Muunganidzi Alan Mays akafukunura pfuma yakawanda yeidzi ngarava dzomunguva yekare dzinopwanya aizi, dzine mashoko akadai sokuti: 'Ndingabvumirwa here kuva nomufaro wakaisvonaka wokukuperekedzai kumba manheru ano?' Dzorera pasi kuti uone vhidhiyo. Nguva refu nharembozha dzisati dzavapo - zvichiita kuti varume nevakadzi vasina kuroora kana kuroorwa vadanane vachiona zvinonyadzisira - vanhu vainyara vaitsvaka rudo pakupera kwezana remakore rechi19 vaifanira kushandisa dzimwe nzira (mufananidzo uri kurudyi).

Yechipiri, sezvinoonekwa muunganidzwa waVaMays, yakanga iri rudzi rutsva rwakachengeterwa kusangana kwakasarudzika, kureva varume vaitsvaga kambani yevakadzi, inozivikanwa se'kadhi yekufambisa '. 'Chigadzirwa chacho kazhinji kazhinji chaiva neshoko pfupi uye mufananidzo uri nyore,' inodaro enisaikoropidhiya yacho.
