This African proverb, a woman who knows how to pound fufu will never say the pestle is too small’ means that a skilled person will always make do with the resources they have.
The act of pounding fufu is a skill, and the proverb is saying that someone who is good at it won’t blame the tool (the pestle) for being too small.
In practical sense, the proverb talks about being resourceful and adaptable, and not making excuses when faced with challenges. It encourages people to be creative and make the most of what they have.
The proverb’s meaning can be interpreted in different ways, and in a more metaphorical sense, it can be related to relationships or intimacy.
In this context, both the pestle and fufu can be seen as symbols, with the pestle representing the private part of the man while ‘fufu’ also depicts the woman’s body part.
In short, a woman who is good in bed will never complain about the size of the man’s ‘pestle’.
