"Blasé attitude"

[A.Y.O @YusufAsunmogejo]

Lagos people did not rape you? Thank God. One Olori here said her friend who uses Hijab was raped 😅

Back to your question. The reason you are not getting that royalty treatment in Lagos comes down to the completely different psychological landscapes of the two cities.

For instance, Abuja runs on a slower pace, heavy political structures, and a dominant Northern cultural footprint. In such an environment, a full hijab or khimar carries immediate social weight. It signals high values, modesty, and often a certain class or background. People notice it because it aligns with the local social currency.

On the other hand, Lagos is a hyper-capitalist melting pot where survival and the daily hustle override everything else. Lagosians are deeply desensitized because they see every version of humanity on a daily basis. When people are navigating insane traffic, dealing with the economy, and rushing to open their shops, outward appearances fade into the background.

It is not that Lagosians disrespect the outfit. They just genuinely mind their business to a fault. Unless what you are wearing is blocking their path or affecting their money, you are just another face in the crowd. At least they did not rape you. Thank God 😅

Former first lady Michelle Obama delivered an emotional tribute to her husband, former President Barack Obama, during the Obama Presidential Center's grand opening ceremony in Chicago Thursday.

"You told me all those years ago that you couldn't promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life," she said, "and of course you outdid yourself and managed to give me both."

For some of us, the story seems inverted (but still connected)...https://t.co/zPIYeOCs0y

[Favour-Hafsa 💫 @deltanmuslimah]

I don’t like to dabble in conversations about whether Muslim women can be feminists or not. It’s one conversation that is very unlikely to see me engage in. I’m not a Muslim feminist the same way I am not a Muslim lawyer or a Muslim capitalist. I’m a Muslim who is a feminist.

These rights that women have to be educated, to go to school, to vote, to work and be paid, to not be child brides were not gotten on the basis of religion. So saying that women don’t need feminism because religion gives rights is not very honest, because men can and have taken these rights from women. Religion existed side by side with the slave trade. I don’t think many of you understand. There are still places where women don’t even have these rights. I cannot afford to be on the internet, with the education I have today, speaking from a position that women before me fought for, and pretend that these things just happened by luck or that feminism played no role in securing them.

I understand that being a religious woman who is a feminist may mean that I will be a hypocrite because there are areas of my faith that I believe in and practise that can be against some practices of feminism, but I can live with that but to say that I have to denounce feminism as a religious woman? Not possible. Not today. Not tomorrow. Not ever.

PCOS Renamed As PMOS In Major Global Health Shift

[Wayfarer 🇵🇸 @beloved2837]

Fun-fact: “buying alubarika for children” and “jijehun ile oko” from service to a man are Islamically baseless, Yoruba level inventions that do nothing but serve as oppression tools for the most part against women in marriage. This tweet doesn’t mean people shouldn’t take good care of their children or treat their husbands well. Won’t be surprised if it gets twisted though.

I recently discussed with one of my seniors on PG endeavours in Nigeria. And only two federal unis made our list. One of them sef, the leg dey shake.
Others didn't even make the cut off, because how will we graduate from Ife and attend "that"???

Yeah. We are like that🤣

Simmel's concept of the blasé attitude sort of captures this....

But he ties the reason to urbanization and cities.
