Popular OAP, vlogger and entrepreneur, Toke Makinwa, has asked people to stop blaming women when their partners cheat.
According to the media girl, when a man cheats on his woman, people often use the phrase “men will disgrace you”. However, Toke said people should rather say “men will disgrace themselves” because the man’s infidelity is not for the woman to bear.
She also said people should learn to carry their cross alone without trying to distribute the shame to their partner.
Sharing her opinion on Twitter, she wrote;
“I know we all love a good hot, pipping, steaming tea but can we try to cultivate the habit of not bashing women for the wrongs of their partners, if a woman gets cheated on by her husband/partner resist the urge to blame her for his wrong doing and no, it’s no reflection on her.
‘Stop saying “men will disgrace you”, that is alluding and accepting shame for another’s crime. Instead say “men will disgrace themselves”. Adults should carry their cross without the distribution of shame, the woman was not in the mix, leave her out of the insults.’
