Men Are Responsible For Women’s Entitlement Mentality – Okey Bakassi [Video]

Nigerian comedian and actor Okey Bakassi has shared his thoughts on how men have helped shape the expectations many women hold today.

Speaking during an appearance on The Honest Bunch Podcast, he said the way men often treat women, especially attractive women, has played a major role in creating certain entitlement attitudes.

According to him, men are partly responsible for the mindset some women now have because society has repeatedly made beauty seem like a ticket to getting whatever they want.

We men are guilty of what we’ve turned our women into. We’ve conditioned them to believe that once they are beautiful, they can get anything. Slangs like ‘fine girl no suppose dey trek’ make them assume that since it’s that way, we won’t work,” he said.

Okey Bakassi also pointed out that when a man constantly chases a woman, it should not automatically make her feel superior.

He said women who act from a sense of “fine girl privilege” should not carry all the blame, since such attitudes are often the result of long-term social conditioning created by society itself.

KanyiDaily recalls that Okey Bakassi recently shared his experience of being tempted by fraudsters and drug dealers when he first arrived in Lagos as a young man.
