Brave women attempting to push boundaries

Brave women attempting to push boundaries!

On Channel 4. Unreported World.
The censored film queens of Nigeria. Story about Nigerian women risking their livelihoods and reputations to push boundaries on screen, in a male dominated world.

Men's permission to work or leave home.

Strict Sharia law means very strict rules on clothing, theme of the films, what they say and do. What was previously permitted changed under Sharia law, and a tiny bit of skin meant being banned.

Sharia law means women are massively repressed.

I am horrified at how men use religions laws to dominate and repress women. It's 2026 women are not equal.

The women are fighting on. Good luck.to these brave women.

It's an interesting watch.

Due to Sharia law a birth scene meant simulation of the birth with clothing on.

Filmmaker says men are offended at everything.

It's upsetting watching. Some women try, others just give up against the constant battle.

In the largely Christian south of Nigeria they have no such problems. World's apart but in the same country, depending on the type of law dominating the area!

Fascinating viewing but depressing too.

I find that women from all around the world get more offened than men.

Just watched it. The contrast between the north and south was remarkable. It was really interesting to watch

I’d say that’s because you’re only focusing on how women tend to express an emotional reaction to something they perceive as disrespectful. Anger and aggression are emotional responses too—and very often come from the same place.

So if men respond with anger while women are described as “offended,” you’re not seeing less sensitivity—you’re seeing the same reaction framed differently.

Once you recognise that, the idea that women are get more offended than men doesn’t really hold up.At all.

If men do it they are called abusive.

Have you watched the programme? It was the real life experiences of the women. Why would you not believe them?

It was.

The poor film maker so upset at the changes in how women are treated now. They cannot seem to fight back against tge men who make ip the rules.
