Toke Makinwa, On Air Personality and vlogger, said that she doesn’t like to use the word
Feminist because some women have abused the word. According to her,
there are a bunch of angry and bitter women who walk through life
blaming it on men.
She said men are not the enemies of women and so women should not
paint a picture that portrays men as such. She said this in reaction to a
comment someone made about her previous vlog where she said that
hairnets need to be burnt and that men are not supposed to see the hair
nets of women.
“Someone went as far as saying you are not a feminist because you
said hair nets should be burnt because of guys. So being a feminist
means that you should try and please your man. This is why I don’t use
the word feminist because there are a bunch of angry and bitter women
walking through life, angry at everything and begin to blame it on a
man.
Being a feminist doesn’t mean that men are our enemies. We are
talking about gender equality. Your guy would certainly want to do some
things that would please you so why can’t you do the same”she said
