Singer Simi has stated many parents tend to raise their girls while they leave the boys to raise themselves, which makes people think that raising boys are much easier than raising girls. She disclosed this on her instagram, saying that when the boys do wrong, people say because they are boys, whereas in a situation where the girls do wrong, people respond saying that she is wayward and wasn't raised right. This result into more effort being put into raising girls. According to Simi, Girls are taught to be good wife, a good mom, prudent, enduring, faithful, perfect or whatever Society's version of perfect is. While men are taught to make money and provide. The pressure to make good decisions is more intense for women. Men are usually able to make whatever choices or mistakes and to take more risks, because society will excuse them - because "boys will be boys". This is a privilege. She expressed joy in seeing that the tide is changing in recent generation, saying, I do think the tide is changing a little with our generation. More women are realizing they are more than what society expects. I love it for us. Simi advised parents to raise their boys well and teach them to be good people; while they should raise their girls well and teach them to be strong and to be more, adding that everyone is equally capable of fucking up or of doing the right thing.
