A controversial post on X has drawn sharp criticism after a user shared sweeping, offensive generalizations about women in Owerri. The comment read: “As someone who has spent over 3 weeks in Owerri. I can confidently tell you that there’s no wife material here all are hoes.”
The remark was widely condemned for being misogynistic, reductive, and disrespectful to an entire city of women based on a short personal experience. Critics noted that such comments perpetuate harmful stereotypes and dismiss the individuality, character, and agency of women.
Some tried to frame it as “humor” or personal observation, but many users argued that casual misogyny online normalizes disrespect and fuels gender hostility. The exchange highlights how quickly sweeping judgments can escalate into public outrage on social media.
