What do men really want when it comes to women? Gertrude shares the story of her life and the rules her mother gave her while young. According to her mom, Gertrude would find a good man to marry only if she followed those rules--the rules that separate good women from bad women. The rules that determine who a man marries and who a man ignores. Gertrude followed these rules until she grew up to realize that rules don't work when it comes to men. Jo Nketiah reads Gertrude's story, titled, "Bad Girls Become the Bride While Good Girls Become Their Maid of Honor." Jo is a poet and has an exciting podcast running on all podcast platforms.    --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/silent-beads/message
