I’ve been having a back and forth debate on Facebook with friends of mine regarding the comments made by Ayesha Curry wife of Stephen Curry famous NBA basketball player of the Golden State Warriors.
You can see the following video here in a discussion panel here:
Now, a few things about the gender aspect here because I noticed that when it comes to issues of fidelity I feel like there are some women that love to move goal posts when it comes to what is acceptable and what isn’t. If the shoe was on the other foot and Stephen Curry made the exact same comments I believe there would be women on social media who would chastise Steph for wanting female attention while being married.
Onto the current subject.....
Now like online forums I do realize people tend to seek validation however internet mediums tend to propagate this with like systems or thumbs up or emojis. Therefore, it’s not surprising that many times people who engage in social media as well as Internet forums tend to value themselves through the opinions of others.
The problem I have with Curry’s comment is, seeking validation through the opinions of others allows them to have power and the ability to dictate your value. I understand for women who have given birth there is body changes women go through and psychological changes which may lead to women to have some insecurities. However, as a married woman by doing that you in turn devalue the opinion of a faithful husband.
I feel as a man if I were her husband I would feel disrespected especially for something like that so public. I firmly believe if I’m a celebrity and I’m in Ayesha Curry’s position, as a man and if I said what she said then my fidelity would be questioned regardless.
Another issue that was brought up is would she make those same comments if her husband was a cop, or a teacher, or a janitor?
Thoughts?
Also here is a male perspective in contrast to the previous listed video:
