An 8 years old girl was r@ped by a 50 years old man.
The community women were not having it. They matched in protest to the man's home with leaves and dirts and dumped them in his compound, as they threw stones at his building, breaking the windows in demand for justice.
This is Nigeria, what those women did might be the most form of justice that baby will get and it breaks my heart. 😢
Update: we’ve raised approximately ₦560,000 out of our ₦900,000 goal for prospective lawyers struggling with Call to Bar expenses. With clearance payments already underway, the need is becoming more urgent.
If you can support, please do. If you can’t, a repost would mean a lot
Enter a female hostel and go sit on one of the public toilets first before confidently announcing that women can’t get infections from toilets. 😂
Every time this conversation comes up, a lot of male HCPs rush to say, “There’s no such thing as a toilet infection” or “You can’t get a UTI from a toilet seat.”
The problem is that many of you hear women describing a real experience and immediately start looking for ways to dismiss it instead of trying to understand what they’re actually saying.
Women are not claiming that every toilet seat is a magical infection portal. What we’re saying is that poorly maintained public toilets can be unhygienic, can expose people to bacteria and other microorganisms, and can create conditions that increase the risk of infections (which happens often btw). Women’s anatomy also makes us more vulnerable to UTIs than men.
The bigger issue is the pattern. Women say, “This is what happened to my body,” and instead of listening, many (read male) HCPs immediately reach for a textbook to explain why the woman couldn’t possibly be right.
We’ve seen this happen repeatedly across women’s health. For years, women complained about symptoms that weren’t being taken seriously. Women with conditions like PCOS spent years describing their experiences before the medical community fully appreciated many of the metabolic aspects of the condition. Our experience with pain management is another example.
Healthcare works best when clinicians combine scientific evidence with patient experiences. The textbook matters. Research matters. But listening to patients matters too.
Women live in these bodies every day. Maybe stop assuming we’re confused every time we tell you what we’re experiencing.
@TrendingEx One thing I'm glad about is how these religious leaders are showing us who they really are, he can't lead protest but he can benefit from the sacrifices of those who are directly affected? God don Kuku talk judgement go start for his own house, I really can't wait for that time!
Esta bien criticar a la tipa esta pero por qué nadie le pone atención al hecho que 400 hombres se prestaron para esa asquerosidad? Son unos degenerados
