2016 has been that year where I looked at what woke
twitter feminists have been saying, before my patriarchy mind refused to
believe that patriarchy exists, I just thought it is what it is and we are
trying so hard to change history. I would stand on the side lines and watch
feminist on social media going on about their activism without retweeting or sharing
until I realised for a person like me who usually has an opinion about
everything, I didn’t do much. Anyway this isn’t about that.
I had one of those experiences where someone told me what
people said about me, I hardly have those, where I actually hear the negative
things that are said about me, I sat there in disgust that people saw me that
way but I had to swallow it. I went home feeling so defeated, I was thinking of
ways to show them that I am not that person and that all I have accomplished was
because of the work I put in.
I really wish women would root for each other and stop the
whole putting each other down business, lets gas ourselves. You see the kind of
gassing that we do in the women’s bathroom in clubs? That kind of rooting.
There is enough “cake” for all of us!
