The struggle of a fine girl living in Lagos…

So I’m speaking on behalf of the association of fine girls that reside in Lagos (Is there even anything like that?). I sort of think I’m qualified to do so.

What do you think?

Especially if you do not have a car yet, it is literally a lot of work to walk on the busy streets of Lagos. Guys, you don’t know what you enjoy when you just walk comfortably on the street. Well, except girls also disturb fine guys which I doubt because most of us would not be so unruly. Okay, some girls are but whatever the case, our struggle is realer than yours. lol. From my observation, here is a nit bit of what we have to go through every day.

People think they have the license to touch you

If you have to go to Yaba or Lagos Island market, then you don’t only have to be prepared financially but mentally and emotionally as well because those boys can drive you crRaZy. As you walk in their midst, different people touch you at the same time (some of them might have just peed without washing their hands for crying out loud!). ‘Fine girl’, ‘nne imaka’ ‘Baby oku’ and if you dare tell them to stop, then you have just invited insults; ‘you think say na only you fine’, ‘comot make I see road jor’ ‘artificial yellow pawpaw’. Sometimes, they can be very vulgar. Now, imagine if you have to pass Yaba market on your way to work every day.

They expect you to show appreciation to them

First let me ask you, are you God that created me? (If only they will read this post) If we say thank you to every single person that shouts ‘fine girl’ on the road then we will still be saying thank you in our sleep. Someone shouts form nowhere ‘Baby you too fine’. How do I know you are talking to me?  Are there not a lot of fine girls on the street? Even if I know nko is it by force to say thank you. Why can't just a smile do? The next thing you will hear is ‘you cannot even say thank you, someone is appreciating your beauty, bla bla bla’.

Constant stares/ People don’t know when to walk up to you

I think we are all used to this one by now but it can still be embarrassing when you are walking with someone or a group of people you have high regard for and people just keep looking at you.

Some people can really be insensitive and unreasonable. How can you walk up to me to say ‘I would like us to be friends’ when you see me with another dude? Come on, this is unacceptable and highly disrespectful. If you see any girl you are attracted to having a conversation with another guy, please, please it is rude for you to walk up to her and say ‘I will like to know you more’ or what do they say sef.  It’s so bad that sometimes, when you are walking with someone, one oga will stop his car and want to start talking to you.  Ah ah bros! The worst is when you are taking a stroll with your mum and a guy tries to start a conversation with you. You just want to scream and say’ ‘This is my mum for goodness sake! Show some respect’

Perhaps I should start a campaign called ‘The fight against the mistreatment of fine girls, enough is enough!’ lol.  I guess this is the price we have to pay and we can’t complain abi? The price is far better than saying ‘hello form the other side’ lol. In my next life I absolutely want to come out as a finer girl biko mistreatment or no mistreatment. Yes, there are perks a fine girl living in Lagos enjoys as well. I might consider sharing. If you have had any funny experience, please feel free to share at the comment section.

I would have loved to write about the challenges fine boys living in Lagos face but I don’t really know much. I guess I will find a fine boy who could do that.

Hmm…nice idea! Fine boy + fine girl toh bad. 

Let the search begin!
