A post on X recently stirred controversy by attempting to define a woman’s morality based on who she turns to in moments of crisis. The statement framed personal support networks in a rigid, judgmental way, ignoring the complexity of family structures and individual life circumstances.
The post read: “As a babe… If your Dad/Mum, Female Friends, Blood Brother/ Sister – aren’t among the Top 3 people you’d think to call when in dire need. You’re a hoe.”
The remark drew heavy criticism for its crude language and sweeping assumptions. It fails to consider that some people rely on cousins, uncles, aunts, partners, mentors, or trusted friends outside that narrow list. Others may be estranged from immediate family or lack supportive parents and siblings altogether. Critics argued that labeling women as immoral based on their emergency contacts is both illogical and dehumanizing. The post highlights how social media often reduces complex human relationships into simplistic, insulting binaries that ignore real-life diversity and nuance.
