Small house
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Small House is a Zimbabwean expression describing an extramarital affair or a party involved in one. It usually describes girlfriends of a married male, a reflection of the polygamous history of the country. Because of Zimbabwe's economic hardships, many men have been forced to abandon costly multiple relationships, which has led to a significant drop in the country's HIV rate in recent years.
There is a soap opera in Zimbabwe based on this phenomenon called Small House Saga.
