I wanted to say something similar
Some seniors on this app are so mean and condescending to the point that I’ve researched about the firms where they work so I don’t have to be a junior under them.
Just unnecessarily annoyed at bar aspirants.
Trying to read corporate law and I’ve considered two alternative career paths already. It’s either I start selling wigs or I’ll go and register at one interior design school, I’m already doing my research stay tuned
Growing up, whenever my mother travelled, my father would become the moodiest man alive. He would barely eat.
He would be walking around the house looking like Nigeria’s economy had personally offended him.
As a child, I used to wonder, “What kind of love is this?”
Then there was my mother. If my dad travelled, she suddenly forgot she had her own room. One night she sneaked into my brother’s room.
My brother turned in his sleep and accidentally kicked her. My mother immediately beat his leg and told him to lie down properly.
The next night, Oga locked his door.
She tried the same thing with me. Same result.
By the time she got to my two younger sisters, they had already heard the stories and locked their doors before she could sneak in.
Come and see a grown woman begging her own children to open their doors. I laughed at these people for years.
Years!!!
I kept wondering what kind of attachment would make two adults behave like this.
Fast forward to today. I am on vacation. My husband is sleeping beside some of my clothes because they still smell like me.
I am counting down the days until my flight home.
And suddenly my parents behaviour then are beginning to make perfect sense.
God forgive me for judging them 😊😊😊
I just left a space where a foolish igbo feminist(tautology) was asked what gender inequalities she's fighting for in Nigeria today, and the nincompoop said the right to keep her father's name after marriage.
Una dey see why e no good to go river ask for pikin.
My issue with modern feminism is no longer about equality. It feels like feminists are angry at the realities of being women, and since they can’t direct that frustration at nature or God, they direct it at men instead.
The concept of a Nigerian woman asking for flowers is still funny to me. I’ll send fresh roses & lavender but yeah, what are you going to do with them after?
Are you sure you don’t want a five liter bowl of Banga soup with imekpe instead?
