Things about me you should know:
1. I'm not a "saint". I'm deeply flawed
2. I pride myself in being willing and able to have the difficult conversations
3. I like to say the quiet parts out loud
4. I like to be the devil's advocate
5. Vitam impendere vero. Veritas omnia vincit

“Men dey!!”
Patriarchy dawg, what an impregnable system! Would never be toppled in this life or the next 🤣
"rights"
Do you even know what those are darling?
The question should be: Who told you one gender is superior to or more deserving of rights than the other?
When women talk about equality, you think we are talking about physical strength?
Men have never had to fight for the right to be men. They didn't have to prove they were human enough to deserve rights, opportunities, education, or a voice in society.
Yet women have had to fight for many of these things. So, who decided that women should have less in the first place?
Equality is simply saying, “I deserve to be treated as a human being, with the same dignity, rights, and opportunities as you.”
I am not less because I am a woman. I am human before I am a woman.
My rights are not privileges you grant me. They are not favours you can withdraw. And they are certainly not up for negotiation.
This is me.
It's all in the eyes and the face and the demeanor.
Before you approach, you can already tell if this person is likely one of them or not.

A guy can lie that a woman had sex with someone or mock the shape of her body parts unprovoked and get 3k likes and sheers from other men. But somehow, most of these men think they’re somehow better and more deserving of respect than the average Nigerian woman.
You think if they got rich, they’d suddenly care about using their money and connections for legacy projects? Lmao.
Oma na unec law boy?
Come
Is this Justice?

Many women don't actually understand how consent works either. They get away with this lack of knowledge by simply being predisposed to never initiating any sexual activity.
We must teach everyone consent.
Yes, a woman can stand infront of a man naked, The man has no right to violate her..
So yes, the feminist was totally right on that aspect..
But ladies, its not a gate way for you to start going naked all because you know a man has no right to touch you..
My mother will always say " if you know what will cause problems for you, avoid it and don't bring it close to yourself.
Since you know doing this may bring trouble, why not dress decent then?
To men:
As a man, you have no right to harass a woman all because she was naked before you..
You have no right to sexualise her or abuse her, the only right you have is to control yourself and walk away right from there..
You may think it's your right untill you find yourself in jail..
So yes, no man has no right to touch a woman because of what she's wearing.
That being said, it's also not an encouragement to you ladies to start dressing naked.

I’m not saying what the guy did was appropriate but I know for sure that if the lady had come on here to gush about she how found his “directness” sexy, the same people having a go at him would have echoed her sentiments. You’d be seeing tweets like “my kind of guy” 💀

I just love how it's "men are so stupid and useless, we don't need them" one minute, then "it's men's responsibility to find a cure for this thing that inconveniences women because we can't do it" the next.

Under consent ethics it's entirely valid to walk up to someone, I mean a total stranger, and ask if they want to have sex with you.
I find the "she complimented him first" defense completely unnecessary. He's well within his rights to ask for literally anything.
She can say no.
This is normal na
1. I will not apologise to you just because I want peace to reign when you are the one who wronged me. I’d rather lose the relationship. If you cannot hold yourself accountable, you are not the person for me.
2. I do not tolerate disrespect. Not even as a joke. Especially not as a joke.
3. If you have a problem with cooking for your partner, I’m not the person for you.
4. You don’t ever have to worry about cooking because it’s one of the things I genuinely enjoy doing. However, this doesn’t negate what I said in number three.
5. Unless you are deep into fitness like me and are posting your gains, you cannot be posting your bum on social media. I’m not a “mature” boyfriend.
6. My obligation is to treat you right and love you softly, genuinely, and intentionally. But if you cannot reciprocate that energy, I’ll leave you.
7. You cannot have a male bestie under my regime.
8. Dates are important to me. I will initiate, plan, and pay for most of them, but you must also initiate, plan, and pay for some dates. I’m a baby boy too.
9. If I tell you that something you did hurt me, don’t tell me it’s not that deep. I will not let you gaslight or manipulate me into questioning my feelings. Don’t dismiss my feelings, ever.
10. Cheating is a deal-breaker. I will not forgive you for it.
11. Access to phones is important to me. This doesn’t mean I’m interested in going through your phone, but if you suddenly start guarding it around me, I’ll assume you’re hiding something.
12. I don’t want to hear about what your ex did for you. If you keep bringing him or your exes up unnecessarily, I will leave you.
13. I like sex, and I’m considerate. I also understand that I don’t own your body. However, if my sexual needs are consistently neglected, I’ll leave you.
14. Even when you are angry, talk to me softly. We can disagree without being cruel to each other. Don’t raise your voice at me, talk to me like a decent adult.
15. If you need a break from the relationship, please don’t come back.
16. Don’t use a breakup as a threat, a weapon, or a joke whenever we have a minor misunderstanding. If you tell me you want to end the relationship, I will respect your decision, and there will be no coming back from it.
