Diary entries of life's ups and downs as seen from a young Nigerian girl's point of view: a storyteller and talkative in denial. Published fortnightly on Mondays.
This new year, we’re goal oriented, we know what we want and we’re going after it unapologetically which is why I'm sharing my goals with you and I hope you will be joining me on this journey.
This episode is about our denial and behavior around sex, the importance of sex education and sexual liberation for women or the lack there of. Listen and stay woke!
What is this idea that we have to be small or play small otherwise we'd chase men/suitors away? What is this idea that one has to choose between a great career and a successful marriage? Why do I have to be a damsel in distress to secure a man? Why do I have to cower for you to have a boost of confidence? So many questions yet, all I can say is; Dear women, you can certainly have it all! It's only a matter of whether you want it or not and how much you want it.
On this episode, I share my experience with wrong diagnosis that I had to live with for over 5years. Have you ever been wrongly diagnosed? How did you go about it?
Has it ever occured to you that a good number of guys have no game? Take away money & sex then they have nothing else to offer or talk about. Why do you think this is?
Is parenthood just another adult peer pressure like marriage? I have no other words, just listen to the podcast. Thank you😔
On this episode, I explain, to the best of my knowledge what I believe some women mean when they say "I don't need a man" because I have come to understand that some people find it triggering. And I believe it's because they don't understand how that can be, seeing that men play vital roles in families and society at large. So, in order not to discredit them, I have designed this podcast to explain what that statement really means.
In my wonderful country Nigeria, to help a stranger is to incur the risk of being defrauded. Now, do you stop helping because of the fear of being scammed? What happens when you're in need too? Because it is easy for us to say we are not helping anyone untill we are the ones in need. What's the way forward? Listen to this episode and share your thoughts.
Women talk a lot about being taken seriously but our actions do not exactly show that we take ourselves seriously. On this episode, I talk about how we relish negative behaviours.
On this episode, I talk about the standards we (as a society) set for ourselves and how unhealthy it is. This episode is a beckoning to everyone to be the change we want to see in the world.
An episode aimed at correcting the impression that women are some sort of decorative arts or objects of gratification to men. Listen to this episode and change your ways! Thank you!
On this episode, I talk about feminism, gender discrimination, Nigeria's stand on equality, what looks like feminism but is not, what it means to be anti feminist and so much more.
It is absolutely wrong to feel entitled to someone's money simply because you are having sexual relations with that person. On this episode, I talk about my gender's entitlement and how some of us view relationships as some kind of job opportunity.
•Sex without valid consent is rape. Who can give a valid consent? Anyone who isn't a minor, anyone who does not lack intellectual content and is not under the influence of drugs or alcohol at that time. I don't think there should be a written form with both parties' signatures cause thats just ridiculous, if you have to do all of that then I suggest you fall back cause apparently that person isn't trustworthy. I think when you make sexual advances towards someone and the person refuses, it's paramount for you to FALL BACK! Cause even when you think you both had fun, she may use it against you later on. Even if you perceive that the person would later give in and she's just doing "initial gra gra", FALL BACK! • Posting about your rape experiences on social media and how you enjoyed it may seem harmless to you but you're encouraging rapists. You're saying "we lowkey like it, we just pretending". Stay woke!
An episode designed for the sole purpose of reminding you to leave that toxic person alone! Thanks!
An expository episode solely designed to open our eyes to the hardship that comes with being male.
