August 19, (THEWILL) – Father to Big Brother Naija, BBNaija season 6 housemate, Angel, has reacted to Maria’s comment regarding her attitude with boys in the house.
THEWILL recalls that Maria, in her diary session with Big Brother, slammed Angel describing her as not being trustworthy and disrespectful in the house regarding her relationship with the boys.
Biggie, responding, said: “Don’t you think the boys should be held responsible for not rejecting Angel despite being in a ship.”
Maria responded: “I totally agree with what you’re saying Biggie but I think at the end of the day boys will be boys. If anything easy comes their way, they run with it.”
Reacting, Angel’s father, who is the handler of her Instagram page, @theangeljbsmith, took to social media to react to Maria’s diary session.
He criticized Maria’s comment “that boys will be boys,” saying that society should learn to also hold men accountable for their actions.
According to him, women should be free with their bodies without making them look cheap and he also disclosed that a woman should not be judged or slut-shamed as being easily accessible because of what she wears or her looks.
The statement partly reads: “We live in a patriarchal society where men are not held accountable for their actions in the name of ‘men will be men’. Who made these rules?
“A woman is not easily accessible because she chooses to be liberal with her body. It’s important that men are held accountable for their actions the way we hold women also, isn’t that what equality stands for? To excuse grave mistakes with the phrase ‘boys will be boys’ has to stop.
“That being said, Angel will be Angel in Big Brother’s voice.”
