“True feminists make the best wives, friends, sisters, and partners because they believe in fairness, respect, and empowerment for all.—feminism uplifts and it doesn’t tear down. I don’t understand the misconception about feminism and why quite alot of Nigeria men are against it. Is it that you want to oppress women?”
@iretiolu_wa reacted:
“Feminism has never been about disrespecting men.”

“Feminism doesn’t equal hating/disrespecting your spouse. Only God knows where that narrative started from.”
@midonations commented:
“Real feminist! What most Nigerian feminists practice is misandrist. Real feminism is supporting women. Helping a girl child grow and making sure women are not denied their rights.”
