We are already living in misogyny so why add to your fellow woman pain

Today, I remember the craziest thing that happened to me in 2023. And ironically, I came across this song on Instagram that same night. It was as if the algorithm wanted to add more fuel to the already burning flames.

This song is a genius portrait of not only misogyny women experience from men, but internalized misogyny women face when pitted against each other. These lyrics are so culturally important right now more than ever. Ladies, love each other. Don’t bring each other down. It’s an epidemic. — comment from the YT by @ninapalu

There is nothing as annoying as women being jealous of other women. It’s almost sickening. I only experienced that in uni, but now after few years, I met it again. This time in the hands of someone I regarded as a sister.

I pray I have the mind to tell the story in full but it was so weird.

The fact I supported her until I discovered she was the op <<<

Everybody hates the, everyone hates the un-relatable — one of the lyrics from the song.

But one of the craziest thing about the story was when she always brought me down when others praised me. or when she said; there is nothing special in being a writer. Blah, blah, blah…

In the era of pick mes, I never expected to face it in full motion. I felt like it was a punishment for being a woman in a male dominated field (I used to be a tomboy 😢).

Some people stopped communicating with me because of her (and they were all ladies too). Others didn’t cos it’s as if it wasn’t her first rodeo.

It was so crazy. I cried every night. It was so bad and terrible. Why will anyone call me names for doing what was right? I supported you but you said I was the opps.

I listened to Sofia Isella so much every night cos the lyrics were so relatable to my situation.

We hate her and she’s nothingIf everybody leaves herThen she had it coming

I did had it coming.

Recently, I had another crazy issue, still for the same issue, a man. I cried again cos I want better for my people. This time, it was even worse. Full impersonation to get the individual’s attention.

We are already living in misogyny so why add to your fellow woman pain?

In all things, I am grateful Sofia Isella gave me the song of the year. I may not be perfect and I am probably punished too, but at this point, let’s learn to love ourselves so much and not fight for what is not worth it ❤️
