A married Nigerian lady has stirred reactions online after revealing that she has dropped feminism and returned to her old lifestyle.
The woman, who is married to a Benin man, admitted that embracing feminist ideas caused months of tension in her marriage.
Not Longer A Feminist
A popular TikTok user, @an_gel52, shocked her followers after announcing that she no longer identifies as a feminist.
Her video quickly went viral, drawing mixed reactions from viewers.
Feminism No Work for My Marriage
Explaining her decision, she said the fights in her home started when she tried practicing feminist beliefs she picked up online.
She said:
“I haven’t posted on this group because I have been fighting with my husband. And because of that, I didn’t want to sound like a hypocrite. I didn’t want to teach ‘A’ and then do ‘B’ at home.”
The woman added that following feminist creators on social media influenced her to try those ideas in her home.
“I started following all these feminists on social media. I come say make I do small, you know, feminism for my house, and I forgot that my husband is a Benin man. It didn’t go that way. So, we have been fighting for months.”
Why She Stayed Off Social Media
She confessed she stopped posting for a while because of guilt.
She didn’t want to preach one thing online and live differently at home.
“That is the reason why I have not posted here for a very long time because, you know, my conscience don’t let me. What do you mean? You know, over here I teach submis’siveness…”
After months of conflict, she finally decided to quit feminism. She told her followers that the movement didn’t align with her personality or her marriage.
“Anyways guys, I am back to my old self. I am back to being submis’sive. Yes. Because it didn’t work for me. It can never work. And besides, that is not who I am. Sometimes, I like control, and I like being submis’sive.”
She Plans to Resume Teaching Women
She wrapped up the video by announcing that she would return to her usual content teaching women how to be good wives and stay submissive to their husbands.
“So, I just want to tell you guys that I am back to teaching you guys how to be submis’sive, how to be a good wife…”
