In a series of tweets shared on her official Twitter page, Toke tackled society for trying to police how victims should act and share their stories after reassuring and encouraging them to speak up in the first place.
According to her, women who are supposed to encourage other women for speaking up are the ones who shut them down instead.
She wrote;
“If you have nothing good to say it’s very ok to keep quiet. Happy Sunday
We encourage women to speak up against abuse and be the first people to try to silence them when they do, it’s like we encourage them to share but want to police how they share their experiences. Pls make it make sense.
I hate that it’s women who sometimes try to shame other women the most. If someone comes out to share her experience let’s do better by either keeping quiet if we don’t have anything good to say or be supportive. Stop with the “she’s doing too much”, let her do pls.
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk”
