A Nigerian lady has sparked reactions online after criticising men who approach women despite appearing unkempt or neglecting basic personal hygiene.
The woman questioned why some men confidently approach women without first paying attention to their appearance and overall grooming.
Lady calls out men over poor hygiene
In a viral video, she said some men believe being male gives them the confidence to approach any woman, regardless of how they look.
“Some of you think that because you’re a man, you can walk up to any woman and talk to her, not minding how drty you look, how drty your teeth is.
You do not even look at yourself from head to toe. Some of you, your nose, the hairs inside is about to enter your mouth, but you’re still seeing it and you’re still seeing it and you have the guts and audacity to walk up to somebody.”
Her comments have generated mixed reactions on social media, with some viewers agreeing that personal hygiene and grooming are important when approaching someone.
Others, however, argued that physical appearance should not determine whether someone deserves to start a conversation with another person.
