The Nollywood actress, Etinosa Idemudia has queried the definition of a strong independent woman in Africa.
In an Instagram post, Etinosa questioned the true meaning of a strong woman.
She said that when Africans talk about a strong woman; they are referring to women willing to endure sufferings; maltreatment, and disrespect.
She questioned why successful women, breaking barriers while refusing to be disrespected or maltreated are not the ones referred to as strong women.

“There’s one nonsense thing that they do in this society that I don’t like.
It’s as if they use to measure the strength of a woman, they use to measure the virtuousness of a woman by the suffering that she can endure.”
She went on to give examples of women considered strong in Africa.
She added the caption: “The definition of ‘strong woman’ in this our African society needs to improve TBH byyyeeeeeee.”

A couple of days ago, the mother of one revealed that a woman’s wedding day is not the best day of her life.
The controversial media personality opined that the best day of a woman’s life isn’t her wedding day; but rather, it is when she experiences the birth of a child.
“Whoever said a woman’s wedding day is the happiest day of her life has obviously never experienced successful child birth.
“The day I held my daughter and looked into her tiny innocent searching eyes was the happiest day of my life,” she wrote.
