Ask This and You’re Blocked! Wixx Mangutha Sets Boundaries

Visual storyteller Wixx Mangutha has addressed the growing curiosity around her personal life, particularly questions about when she and her partner, Walter Mangutha, plan to have children.

Through her Instagram stories, she explained that she and her partner will no longer respond to such inquiries, calling them “immature and inappropriate” and emphasizing that it is nobody else’s business.

Wixx said: “Before we start...my partner and I have decided this year we'll not be answering any questions about kids. It's very immature and inappropriate and really not anyone’s business. In the past, I have been answering politely...moving forward, when anyone asks, I'll be blocking them. That’s said, back to great vibes.”

Her announcement highlights the couple’s decision to protect their privacy and set clear boundaries on personal topics that often attract public speculation.

Support from Public Figures

The statement has garnered support from other public figures, including Chiki Kuruka, wife to artist Bien.

In response, Chikikuruka wrote: “I’m SO glad she spoke up. I also got tired of replying to these questions. The list goes ON as to why this shouldn’t be asked in a public forum by a stranger. I know many folks ask in good faith. Not all do though. I’ve had MANY comments by women and men telling Bien to find a woman who will produce for him kids. ??? In the same way our mothers should be off the table, so should our wombs. Unless we ourselves open up the forum for conversation. ❤️”

Her comments underscore the societal pressure often placed on women regarding childbirth and the expectation to respond to strangers’ inquiries about their reproductive choices.

Public Reactions

Members of the public have also weighed in on the conversation. Sheila Njeru shared a personal experience, saying: “My God, people don’t know what women sometimes go through. I was asked that question by a co-worker and in reality, I was going through a series of treatments just to conceive. I burst out crying in the workplace—watu wakadhani nimekufiwa ?. Let's just stop asking women these questions and move on with other things, tbh.”

Ruth M Nyaga added: “Could we stop getting entitled to people’s lives? Let everyone live how they want. You don’t walk around asking people when they will have kids. It’s disgusting.”
