A video was shared online showing a girl expressing her frustration after being unfairly stereotyped as a prostitute by someone she paid to charge her device. In response, a comment added to the stereotyping, stating, “As Aboki drop her nickname she con provoke,” implying that the individual called her a nickname associated with prostitution and that her reaction confirmed her guilt. What’s troubling is that this comment comes from someone who doesn’t know either party but still feels entitled to reinforce harmful assumptions.

This type of commentary fuels baseless stereotypes and dismisses the real issue at hand: the girl was subjected to an unfair and offensive label. Rather than acknowledging the injustice, the comment trivializes her anger, suggesting that her response is an admission of guilt. This mindset perpetuates a culture where women’s reactions to being mistreated are often invalidated, reinforcing harmful narratives that can lead to deeper discrimination and harassment. It’s crucial to challenge these harmful stereotypes and recognize that everyone deserves to be treated with respect, regardless of appearance or reaction.
