Singer Simi has said that the reason why men feel vulnerable about feminism is that they’ve realized the society now wants more for women.
Taking to social media, the singer stated that men are now being surprised that the society which handed them their superiority card is actually now behind the clamour for more for women.
She wrote on Twitter: “Feminism makes many men feel so vulnerable, because you find that society that gave you your “superiority card” is starting to know (and want) better for women – and you donno wtf to do. Lol. Gag is, if you support us, life is better for everyone. Don’t be afraid”.
She went on to reveal that women aren’t feminists because of a desire to be like men.
“The only reason women have probably ever wanted to be men is – the privileges men have enjoyed. Besides that, why will any woman want to be a man? And now we want to share those privileges across genders equally. We’re different with diff strengths/weaknesses, but of equal value”, she wrote.
She added by advising women to fulfil their own task in the struggle that feminism stands for.
“I have a lot of female friends that shy away from feminism because they’re hung up on “some feminists are bitter”. Which one is your own? Do ur part. Feminism doesn’t alter anyone’s personality. But the core of the movement is the same. Don’t let anyone decide your path for you”.
