According to Jim Iyke, a seasoned Nollywood actor, a women’s magazine deliberately promoted modern feminism as a sales gimmick, which ultimately evolved into a philosophy that exhorts women to completely shun males.
According to reports, the movie star recently shared his opinions on current feminism in an interview with The EchoRoom, calling it a movement that has deviated from its initial goals and now verges on criminality and deception.
The modern feminist movement, according to Iyke, has turned into a perverted ideology that promotes needless competition between the male and female genders, whereas the early feminist movements sought to address basic problems like patriarchy and gender inequality.

The actress claims that some women are pushing modern feminism too far, and that it has become a way of life and a standard.
“I think it’s a crime, a form of assault,” he stated. The culprits behind this—I won’t identify the magazine, of course—started a cunning marketing drive to increase sales. Who were the main readers of these works? Females. They therefore developed an ideology that gave women the freedom to question the current quo and engage in equal competition with males.

Some ladies wholeheartedly adopted the concept, but this campaign went too far.
They concluded that the entire philosophy of “we don’t need a man, we can do anything a man can do better” intensified and exaggerated. It is now a new cultural norm and a way of life.
“What first causes me to doubt the philosophy is the double standard of it all. You don’t realize it’s a lie? The duplicitous approach to it? In my opinion, men and women have different duties, and genuine balance is reached when they cooperate harmoniously. That is what they still don’t comprehend.
