A viral video showed two polite young ladies answering a stranger’s questions. However, a comment claimed, “Nigerian girls go first bill first. Mentality of the average lady in Nigeria is financial gain.” This stereotype unfairly reduces Nigerian women to materialistic individuals, ignoring their hard work and integrity.
Such generalizations fuel distrust and damage relationships. Financial expectations exist globally, not just among Nigerian women. Instead of reinforcing biases, we should celebrate positive behavior and judge individuals based on character. Social media users must recognize their words’ impact and foster a more balanced, respectful society.
