Women, we need to train ourselves to root for one another more.


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!
