It has been a long, seemingly unending feminism debate on Twitter, with many championing women’s rights amidst opposition from others who think its a waste of time.
Today, however, Teni Entertainer decided to dip her toes into the boiling hot water that is the feminism discussion and in doing so, she sparked a conversation…sort of.
It all started when she replied a tweet that asked: “If a man proposes to his girlfriend and she said NO, Is the relationship OVER ?” by saying the woman is not ready.
O she’s probably not ready https://t.co/v95nNPKCWs

She then followed that up with a tweet saying women can also propose to their boyfriends and it doesn’t have to be only the men doing the asking. She wrote: “Btw it’s not wrong for a woman to propose to her man!”
Btw it’s not wrong for a woman to propose to her man!

She ended by saying: “Y’all are feminists till it’s time to bend on one knee to ask a man to marry you! Aren’t we equal?”

Her last tweet was the actual thing that stirred conversation, attracting different opinions on Twitter.
Many feminists on Twitter bashed her, criticized her views through her music, her weight, and many other things.
On the other hand, some also defended her, saying that they understood her point of view and criticising those who bashed her.
As Twitter is a place where people make jokes about a majority of things, many also took the opportunity to make jokes about recruiting Teni for Patriarchy FC.
See the tweets below:
Tweets bashing her:
Teni is one Artiste that is widely loved both on and off the timeline for being funny, talented and minding her business.
I don't understand why she will want to court controversy on this beautiful sunny day by taking a swipe at Feminists.
It doesn't make sense.— CYBER DOBERMAN (@Baldilocks__) February 1, 2020

Teni asked a valid question on the issue of equality and instead of giving an answer or at least an intelligent response, "feminists" decided to bash her, her music and body shame her.
Tomorrow they'll tweet about "girl power"
Ignorant, delusional lots.

Somebody said Teni should stick to her kpangolo music…WooW!
All of a sudden Teni’s music is kpangolo music after you’ve done several Snapchat videos with her music.Fear God na??

There is nothing bad in what Teni asked Sha, we all know she is talking about our online Tweminists.
So answer the question, why can't a woman bend on one knee to ask a man to marry her? Aren’t we equal?

They have started with her music, they will soon enter her weight.
Teni will be dragged non-stop for 24 hours, only Football Twitter can save her & even that is not enough.
How could she "do such a mistake"

Equality says: no role should be gender exclusive, if a man can do it, then a lady should be able to do it.
Maybe Teni sounded like she was trying to ridicule the movement (I don’t think she was), her tweet remains valid.
Defying societal “norms” is part of what feminism is?????
