The comment “Ashawo!” directed at the actress is a degrading and harmful insult that unfairly attacks her character. It equates her desire for financial independence with promiscuity, reinforcing harmful stereotypes about women who prioritize careers over traditional roles. Such remarks not only shame the actress but also perpetuate a toxic culture of labelling women negatively for making choices that don’t conform to societal expectations. This kind of insult silences women’s autonomy and discourages them from pursuing their ambitions while fostering an environment of misogyny and judgment.
