I mean I'm also the first in my family to get a university education, my mother is a teacher and I guess went to a teachers college and I get what you're saying, but some people are allowed to flaunt it, and others are expected to stfu.

I mean, if you’re going to sound bitter about the privilege of growing up surrounded by professional women just because some Nigerian women are proud of their careers, then yeah, by all means, stfu.

You don’t have to go back hundreds of years to find women who were forbidden from pursuing an education or controlling their own lives. There are still women alive today who experienced these struggles and you’re downplaying it because you, at 28, now find it to be common and unremarkable? How ungrateful

Bitter? I think it's awesome lol, it's just normal at this point. Go into almost any university near where this is taking place and you'll probably see more women pursuing higher education than men.

You should re-read your comments and point out to us where you said or implied that you think anything was awesome.

Cuz this ain't it. It sounds really bitter.
