Iโm careful with our women as I approach 30. Many around me claim they are repressed, yet their choices are boldly consensual. Even with financial freedoms, I still see my friends wholly choosing societal strictures/patriarchy.
The text is a third-party account, no wonder.
@playingmountain
@WalleLawal
I do. I think they did what they did because they wanted to. They liked Fela. They enjoyed the cachet of being his women The thing about societal strictures is an interpretation by third parties. Finally, they bowed to the so-called strictures by insisting he marry them. . . So.
