laudate: Hillary's twitter bio is public, Hillary is a public figure and a self-proclaimed feminist who further agreed to have the interview and encouraged Chimamanda to ask any question she wants. And since she is a public figure with a public twitter bio and a self-proclaimed feminist, Chimamanda is well justified in asking this question so no she should not leave her alone with it, it was only logical to address it. Hillary was a bad candidate and it wasn't only because of the far right propaganda painting her as crooked. What cost her the election was her lack of authenticity. Her twitter bio is a perfect example of her inconsistency like her Hillarycare initiative which ended the moment the pharma industry started pouring money into her account. I do not share Chimamanda's admiration for Hillary but I see her hypocrisy clearly. |

Bullshit! This is victory abi? She only changed the position of the wife so y'all and your supreme leader would stop getting nightmares. How can your role model start her twitter bio with wife? You think she gives a fvck about being your role model? She doesn't even know and will never know you exist. Be your own role model for fvck's sake. Mordern day feminism are just either misandrists,those who think joining a movement is an accomplishment,those with the occasional urge to rant and fight and throw silly tantrums whenever it hits them,those who feel feminism is the key to their personal fulfillment and glory etc. If you can't go out there and campaign publicly then pick your reason for being a feminist above. |

Mindfulness: Yes, Hilary is a public figure. But does being a public figure take away her right to make choices about her identity, and about how she sees herself? I still do not understand Adichie's poke-nosing into Hillary's bio. If what Hilary had written was incorrect, or if she chose to ascribe to herself qualities she did not possess, then it would have been a different matter. After all, in her first bio, Hilary put "wife, mother and grandmother," but still included Senator, Secretary of State and FLOTUS, in the list. She did not drop one for the other. So what on earth was Adichie yapping on about? For Hilary, it is clear that her personal relationships are just as important, as her professional achievements, and she has every right to determine the order in which they are listed! People need to respect that, whether she is a public figure or not! Even after amending her bio, did she drop the descriptions, "wife, mom and grandmother" from her bio?? So why split hairs over such a mundane issue? There are far more important issues, that Adichie could have focused on, instead of taking potshots at Hilary's bio. 2 Likes |

Good adjustment. As a public figure, people ought to care about your public achievements. Those things come first before your personal bio which includes your marriage status. The only reason why Nigerian barbarians were after chimamanda is because marriage in Africa (which is fast becoming a sham) is the only achievement they have. No inventions, no progress nothing! It took an African feminist to set things straight with Hillary who should have known better. We are gradually getting there. |

laudate: She has the freedom of choice and Chimamanda has the freedom of speech. Very simple. |

martineverest: And what if another girl's priorities are to be a good wife and mother, then maybe run a successful home-based business?. The family is the basic unit of society, in this broken world we need more family-oriented men and women. A woman has the God-given right to be a top-notch home-maker and such person will be glad to see 'wife' as the first thing in Hilary's profile. 1 Like |
