    I'm an extremely successful woman. I'm a C-Suite Executive. A man who doesn't give me money even for my nails and hair. A man who never gets me flowers. A man who never gives me money to buy snacks when I travel does not love me🙂. I dump such men.

    Divorce is central to my rise and success. The marriage institution almost destroyed my career and brand. It's the most successful part of my comeback🥰🥰🥰

    Young women, pls never absorb this shame. People reveal themselves when it suits them I dated for 7 yrs (age 19 -26), married thereafter for 4. Only had a child once married. A white wedding that cost R130k, in 2004. I'm in the same queues as you & society is as cruel to me too
    Women speak of their baby daddies like they were assigned by the government and they had no choice in the matter.

    1) My 17 yr old has been going to 5 star restaurants since 10. Her favorite restaurant is Signature. If anyone asks her to choose a place for a date, she'd say Signature and expects to pay for her meal & drinks. She takes her friends, cousins there and pays with her savings
    High end restaurant & you’re not my hun? Forget it Also a lot of Huns have loser energy & you only get to see this after 10mins of chilling with them. Ice cream date first then we can establish whether or not this is going to progress into anything positive

    1) I'm a 46 yr old Mom to a 17yr, I saw nothing wrong with your outfit to a festival. And yes, I'd let my daughter go to the festival wearing that outfit. I'd let her go to the beach wearing a tiny bikini. I also know you're not dressing for any one's validation, especially men
    quite literally broke the internet

    I respect this view. But I tell my 17 yr old, it wouldn't bother me. I lived with her Dad, my ex, for 5 yrs. Till this day, despite all, I credit that man for the foundation of my success. I wouldn't be a CA today. Even a big part of my personality comes from that 5 yrs.

    No, the standards haven't dropped. The young people have worked hard under most arduous circumstances in a highly regulated environment, while putting in 12 hr days & weekends to ensure the credibility of our capital markets. These young people are exceptional.

    After 7 yrs we got married. He hung out with "wiser" older married toxic men, who believed in African Ways, submission & other toxicity. We had our daughter, he wanted to khekheleza & for me to parent alone & to stop working and be a housewife. I filed for a divorce at yr 11.5.

    Grown-ups should never be required to submit to other grown-ups. Human beings (ALL) should consciously work at being leaders. By being kind, compassionate, have empathy, healing their own hurt prior to leading others. It's not something that's just passed on. We all worked hard.

    I'm 45, extremely successful all round, earning a great salary and dating. In the 14 years I've been divorced, with a child, I've never not had men asking me out. Women have no expiry date, it was a SCAM to get them to labour and age earlier in their late teens and twenties.

    I get judged the same by black people. No questions asked. There is no special treatment for the former self righteous, veil covering their face women. No matter how much homework you do, black people are not that kind to black women.

    I find this take interesting. I know of many couples either married or living together where the husband / partner blows money on random women & the wife / partner is left to provide monthly. They go to clubs and swipe children school fees. Are they not "Her" in society’s eyes.
    Men actually love providing. You just got to be Her.

    I won't speak for other professions but CAs (SA) please make your designation your entire personality. We train you to be more than doers and tick box tickers. We train you to be cutting edge thought leaders. Thought leaders make thought leading their entire personality.
    People who make their jobs and titles their entire personality bore me so much.
