Being a feminist does not mean you should hàte men or despíse them.
In fact, to me, Feminism is one of the most wrøngly interpreted words I've ever seen in my life. Especially in this part of the world, Africa, and mostly in Nigeria.
I don't really know, but I think feminism was supposed to be a way of teaching women how to become independent, without the help of anyone. It does not necessarily have to be a man or a woman, but Nigerians misinterpreted.
There was a day I saw a post about a lady who beàt up her boyfriend, everyone was hailing her. Then, a guy spoke up, "What if it were the guy who àssaulted the woman, will you all be cheering about it like this?"
A lady replied him, two ladies actually, and what they were saying was just totally out of bound. Before the guy could even say anything, they both already started dishing insúlts to him. They didn't let him explain, they were just there, throwing ínsults, just because of a single question.
When I saw the argument, I asked the ladies why they were dishing out insúlts to the young man who asked a harmless question, and while she was replying me, her first line was...I am a feminist
And so?
Should that make you blind to facts?
See, this thing is the main issue we have in this country, and we don't even know it. Being a feminist shouldn't mean you should totally become against mén, it's really bad.
In the world of today, to women, a crime is not really a crime, unless it was committed by a man, when did we even get here?
Let me tell you, some of your role models in Feminism are pure cløut chasers who tell uninformed women what they know you want to hear, so as to keep being hailed by their audience.
To some of them, it's just content creation. It's just content, and most of them have made some women so bítter about men, that anything about men to them is total rubbísh, I ask again, when did we get here?
To me, any feminíst that focuses his or her everyday teachings on you as a woman not needing a man in your life is most likely to be a cloút chaser.
Don't get me wrong, a woman should be taught how to live independently, without the support of a man or a woman. Any of your role models trying so hard to divert the whole energy to men, you better run for your life.
We need each other, it doesn't matter what angle you see it from, we really need each other for a peaceful coexistence.
We know that men are evíl, but so are wømen too. Every gender has their short comings, why does it become an abomination because the crime was committed by a man?
Let's all brace up, and do better.
Some people don't even deserve to call themselves feminists, some people are a disgràce to that name, and it's pretty annoying, honestly.
From the look of things, being an uninformed feminíst is one of the wørst things that could happen to a woman.
Don't let any person cajole you into being a toxíc woman, all in the name of being a feminist, it's really unhealthy for even your mental health.
Please, as a woman, just be a good person, treat everyone with equity, and place your judgements at an unbiased angle, don't be sentimental, or suddenly become blind to facts, all because you're a feminist.
In total, just be a good person, that's all that matters.
Men are not your enemies!!!
