Nigerian skit-maker and brand influencer, Taaooma bares her thoughts about the societal hardship that women are constantly faced with.
Taking to the micro-blogging platform, Twitter, Taaooma, whose real name is Apaokagi Adedoyin Maryam shared that being a woman is tough.
She recounts her experience at the hands of a traffic offender, whom she challenged on the road, but ended up silencing her.
In her words:
“Being a woman can be tough sometimes. In your work space, you’re looked down upon. In the society, you’re not as respected. Last time out, a traffic offender I challenged on the road told me to “drop my daddy’s car” before I can talk to him 😂.”
Her post was replied to by a troll, who said it was not about her being a woman, but rather about her small stature. He further asked Taaooma to stop playing the victim.
His Tweet reads:
“That wasn’t about you being a woman, it was probably about you being ‘small’ size. You women shouldn’t be victimizing yourselves always”
Nonetheless, Taaooma’s response to the troll put him back in his place.
“Lol, small size? Cos he saw my whole body from the car Yh? If I start to list all the experiences, we’ll be here till night. I’m spitting the reality of things, you said I’m victimizing myself. Stop jare.”
