NIGERIAN WOMAN, YOU DON'T HAVE THE SAME PRIVILEGES AS MEN

When Nigerian men speak, they speak from a place of privilege and power. They will say and do anything to uphold their control and freedom to be and to do without being held accountable.

But the women who agree with them do not understand this. Those mugus believe that their motivations are the same as their male counterparts'. They are deluded enough to think that Nigerian men care about women and their right to make personal choices.

These are the same men that will chase you down the street and strip you naked because you CHOSE to wear a piece of clothing that they do deem indecent.

These are the same men that will slutshame you and call you a prostitute after you CHOSE to have sex (with them).

These are the same men who will overpower you and rape you because you CHOSE to be at a particular place, at a particular time.

These are the same men that will set you up and rape you because you CHOSE to not date them.

These are the same men that will beat you up mercilessly because you CHOSE to speak up for yourself.

These are the same men that blackmail you with your nudes and engage in revenge porn because you CHOSE to break up with them.

These are the same men that kill you because you CHOSE to live your life at your own terms and conditions.

Ask yourself, why do some of your choices attract violence, humiliation, rape, assault and even murder from men, while some others attract eulogies?

Why did they praise Chioma for CHOOSING to marry a man who currently has three children from three different women, but, just a couple of months ago, they castigated Regina for CHOOSING to marry a 59 year old man who already has 3 wives?

Why is Chioma virtuous, but Regina is a golddigger?

Could it be that these men know that they are all potential serial baby daddies, but are "never will be" billionaires?

Could it be that the conditions to get a Chioma are feasible, but the ones to get a Regina are unattainable?

Could it be that by supporting Regina they would admit that a man has to be a billionaire before he can land an attractive 22 year old Nollywood actress? How many Nigerian men will become billionaires in this life?

It makes sense that they will not support Regina. Just like they will not support a woman who CHOOSES to date or marry a man who earns above a certain income.

Even if Davido were poor, Nigerian men would still praise Chioma for choosing to marry him. Because Nigerian men are poor, and a poor man can still have three children with three different women, just like Davido.

And if Ned were poor they would have supported Regina was well. True love. That's what they would have called it.

But do you know who wouldn't support Davido if he were poor? Nigerian women. The same way they wouldn't have supported Ned if he were poor.

That right there is the difference. When Nigerian women speak, they do so from a place of poverty, subjugation and low self esteem.

Your reasons for agreeing with your men are OPPOSITE to theirs. The men are protecting their own interests. And you too are doing the same. Nobody is protecting women's rights because both men and women are busy protecting men's.

Come out again and say that you cannot date a man who earns N50K and watch how Nigerian men will respect your CHOICE.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

And to conclude, I stand by what I wrote yesterday. Any man or woman who has more than two kids, and at least three of those kids have different parents, must have his or her emotional and mental wellbeing checked.

What are they looking for? Why do they think a child is the answer?

My heart goes out to those siblings who have only one parent in common. If they tell you their story, you will understand why some people are not fit to be parents.

Oh, and if polygamy is natural, why do men frown at a woman's CHOICE to date/marry more than one man?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

If I hear you shout choice again, eh? Do you think that you have a choice in a society where you don't have any choice?

Maybe na God o. I heard that with him, nothing is impossible sha.
