Am I the only one who hates this giant man, small tiny woman trope?

our willingness to adapt to every hardship makes us look foolish as citizens.

Feminism doesn’t stop you from taking care of your man.
Feminism doesn’t stop you from collecting penis.
Feminism doesn’t stop you from cooking for a man.
Feminism doesn’t stop you from spending your money on a man.

You people talk about feminism like it’s a cult created to be against men, it isn’t!

An entire state can get wiped out in one night and Nigerians will go to work the next day. We’re being exposed to an insane level of violence and we’re scrolling away

Guys!! It’s cold very outside! I just stepped outside my house to feel it. And if it’s this cold in Lagos, it’s colder in Ibadan and much even colder in the bushes! These children and their teachers are shivering right now! This is their 27th night! God!😭😭

That Nigerian “smartness” is just rooted in greed and not being decent. It’s not something we should be encouraging.

My boyfriend has never baked before. Sent him a list of everything I needed to bake and he came with everything correct (right brands sef) without having to call me and act dumb.

Say no to weaponized incompetence ✊🏾

there is something incredibly satisfying about reading the first page of a book, and immediately something in your brain sits up and goes 'oh, i'm going to like this' — and then every subsequent page proves you right.

My Dads elder sister was so small, they still “joke” about how her “husband” was bathing her for years after the “marriage”

The disgust I feel every dannn time!!!

i believe in re-reading and re-watching your favourite books & movies at different stages of your life. the plot never changes, but your perspective does.

[Ibironke @ronkeaa]

I hate so many adjectives in life but top 3 and not number 3 is people telling men to ‘help’ their wives with chores in the home.
It grinds my ears so so so much.

[Sai Ishaya @Sai_Isshayya_]

The most powerful way to counter this narrative isn't by rushing to list our tech founders & CEOs. While those achievements are amazing, our first response should really be dismantling the stigma around care work itself.

When we immediately pivot to highlighting "bigger" accomplishments, we inadvertently validate the pastor's underlying insult, that care work is something to be ashamed of. It's not.

There is absolute dignity in honest, essential labor. Caring for the vulnerable, working those long shifts, & yes, changing diapers, is incredibly honorable work that keeps entire societies functioning. This is what we should be emphasized.

We can absolutely celebrate the startup founders & the care home owners, but we need to put just as much respect on the frontline care workers. There's zero shame in making an honest living.
