Media Influencer, Toke Makinwa, has shared her thoughts about people who shame women for speaking up.
She stated that women encourage others to speak up when they are sexually abused but are the first people to try and silence them when they do.
She added that she despised women who try to shame other women and encouraged women to be supportive when one of them comes out to rant about their story.
In her words: “We encourage women to speak up against abuse and be the first people to try to silence them when they do, it’s like we encourage them to share but want to police how they share their experiences. Pls make it make sense.
“I hate that it’s women who sometimes try to shame other women the most. If someone comes out to share her experience let’s do better by either keeping quiet if we don’t have anything good to say or be supportive.
Stop with the “she’s doing too much”, let her do pls.”
