Simi highlighted the significance of women having the freedom to authentically choose their life paths. In her words, she expressed, “As a feminist, my goal is to fight for the woman’s right to choose not under duress, not out of fear, not because they think that’s what they have to do, but genuinely choose what they do."
She continued, stating, “If you want to be a stay-at-home mum, let it be your choice. If you want to be the most submissive wife in the world, let it be your choice. If you wanna be a slay mama, let it be your choice... I feel like that’s the only way it’s genuine.”
